Ans.
Platelets are a type of blood cells, responsible for blood clotting. These cells prevent excessive blood loss from wound as they form plug or clot at the site of injury to repair the damage. Thus, the option). platelets is correctly matched with 'clotting blood.'
White blood cells or WBCs are components of immune system that protect the body from harmful foreign molecules, such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses and harmful body cells, such as tumor cells. Thus, the option). white blood cells is correctly matched with 'fighting bacteria.'
Red blood cells or RBCs are blood cells that transport oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nutrients to the different part of the body. These cells are made up of hemoglobin and protein. Thus, the option). red blood cells is correctly matched with 'clotting blood.'
Plasma is the non-cellular, colorless, fluid portion of blood, composed of proteins, vitamins, antibodies, amino acids, and other micromolecules. It is responsible for viscous nature of blood. Thus, the option). plasma is correctly matched with 'providing viscosity to the blood.'
Answer:
D. A hormonal signaling pathway between endocrine glands and tissues
Explanation:
Our body is formed by a complex organization of various tissue, organs and organ-systems. It has specific mechanisms to regulate the functions of all its cell, tissue and organs. Besides neural system, the endocrine system also plays a crucial role in the regulation of body functions. This system consists of many pathways that originate from the hormone secreting glands called endocrine glands and reaches to the target cell or tissue or organ. These pathways are collectively named as the endocrine axis.
The correct option is C.
Roundworm belongs to the kingdom animalia and to the phylum nematoda. It has round, unsegmented, smooth and thin body which can grow to the maximum of four feet in length. It has a bilateral symmetry. A roundworm has no skeleton and it reproduces sexually.
Other than contributing to potential increase in diversity of species in an ecosystem, exotic species have positive benefits like removing toxins from the soil, regulating erosion, and controlling undesirable species.
Answer:
I believe the correct answer is both involve proteins in the cell membrane.
Explanation:
This is because Facilitated diffusion does not require any energy to transport molecules, while Active transport requires ATP. Facilitated diffusion transports molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration (or down a concentration gradient). Active transport moves molecules from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration (or up a concentration gradient). Answer choice A is the only choice that makes sense.
