The skin has only 2 layers—epidermis and dermis. Hypodermis, if that’s what you have in mind as the third, isn’t considered part of the skin.

The epidermis is a barrier to infection, trauma, and water loss (dehydration); it’s important to our social interactions; and it’s the body’s largest sense organ. The dermis provides toughness and resistance to mechanical stress; provides blood vessels that come close to the epidermis and nourish it (but don’t enter it); contains a variety of sensory receptors for touch, heat, cold, pressure, and vibration; and is an arena of immune defense in which white blood cells can rally at a site of infection and fight off intruders.

Match the human activity with its effect on groundwater.
fgiga [73]

Answer:

3. Household wastes

2. Landfills

1. Agriculture

Explanation:

The groundwater is more and more contaminated, and there are numerous ways in which the contamination occurs. The causes of pollution mainly come from the human activities. The humans use all sorts of chemicals, fossil fuels, paints, and often there is waste from them, waste that is dumped into the drainage, and occasionally reaches the groundwater. The leaking of linings also manages to cause lot of damage, as very often it can reach the groundwater, causing heavily contamination of it. The agriculture, as much as it is needed, is a big polluter too, and the pollution mainly comes from the usage of pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides, which wash through the soil and end up in the groundwater.

A cross between two plants that both have yellow flowers produces 80 offspring plants, of which 38 have yellow flowers, 22 have
zvonat [6]

Always start with the genotypic ratios, because they'll be the same. Since hidden variation is popping out, you can assume that both of the parents are heterozygous. The problems you get will be the F2 ratio of the cross between two homozygous individuals.

1:2:1 is the genotypic ratio for one locus. AA:Aa:aa.

1:2:1 is the phenotypic ratio for incomplete dominance. Incomplete dominance means that the heterozygote expresses differently from either homozygote.

3:1 is the phenotypic ratio for complete dominance.

2:1 is the phenotypic ratio for lethal recessive.

Which organisms have groups of cells arranged into organs
Talja [164]

Answer:

The correct answer is multicellular organisms.

Explanation:

Organs are differentiated structure formed by group of cells and tissues to perform the similar functions. When more than two organs perform specific function in a coordinated manner they form organ system.

Tissues and organs are a characteristic feature of multicellular organisms as more than one cell is present in these organisms and these cells aggregate together to form tissues, which further aggregate to form different organs carrying out the different functions attaining complexity.

Since, unicellular organisms do not have more than one cell, unicellular cells do not form tissues and lack organs.

Thus, the correct answer is multicellular organisms.

 which is absent in unicellular organisms.
