The lungs are divided into seven lobes. Thus, the correct option is D.

<h3>What is the function of lungs?</h3>

Lungs provides your body's cells with oxygen. When exhale, waste gases from body, including carbon dioxide, are removed. shields airways from irritants and dangerous chemicals.

Each lung has an oblique fissure, with a transverse fissure further dividing the right lung. The superior and inferior lobes of the left lung are divided by an oblique fissure. The superior, middle, and inferior lobes of the lungs are separated by an oblique and horizontal fissure. As a result, the left lung has two lobes whereas the right has three.

A lobar bronchus supplies each lobe. Bronchopulmonary segments that are supplied by segmental bronchi divide the lobes.

1. Excretion is the process of (1 point)
ycow [4]
Q1. The answer is removing metabolic wastes from the body.
Excretion is the process through which metabolic wastes are removed from the body. Skin, lungs, and greatly kidney, which are the part of the excretory system, are responsible for excretion of metabolic waste in vertebrates. Invertebrates have special systems (insects, for example, have Malpighian tubules) or use skin to excrete metabolic wastes while single-celled organisms use the whole surface of the cell.

Q2. The answer is some animals live in dry or salty environments.
Kidneys are important organs in maintaining water balance. Some animals that live in dry and salty environments must preserve water in order to maintain homeostasis. They drink and eat food with more salt in it. If they lose that precious water in such conditions, the amount of different salts in the organism will increase and it will affect a normal functioning of the organism.

Q3. The answer is simple diffusion across the skin. 
Ammonia is very toxic substance and a lot of water is needed for its neutralisation and excretion. Therefore, animals that live in water excrete ammonia directly in the water. Many freshwater invertebrates eliminate ammonia through skin. In animals that do not live in the water, kidneys and liver help conversion of ammonia into urea which is then excreted.,

Q4. They both actively pump salt across their gills. 
Both saltwater and freshwater fishes use gills to eliminate nitrogenous wastes while kidneys have a little role in the elimination of this kind of the waste. Salt that is lost is replaced by active transport of salt ions into the body by the gills.

Q5. The answer is They both convert nitrogenous wastes to uric acid. 
A garden spider and a sparrow are terrestrial organisms. They do not live in the water and do not excrete metabolic wastes in the water. It is known that ammonia is toxic nitrogenous substance and a lot of water is needed for its excretion. For water organisms this is not a problem, they are surrounded by water, but terrestrial organisms, such as the garden spider and the sparrow, have no such amount of water in the environment, so their kidneys and liver must convert ammonia into urine which can then easily be excreted.

Glycolysis occurs in the mitochondria protoplasm cytoplasm of the cell.
dmitriy555 [2]
Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. You can remember this because even prokaryotic cells can do glycolysis so it must occur without a membrane bound organelle such as a mitochondrion. 

Hope this helps

Animals get the nitrogen they need by eating plants or other animals that contain nitrogen. When organisms die, their bodies decompose bringing the nitrogen into soil on land or into ocean water. Bacteria alter the nitrogen into a form that plants are able to use

How are DNA and cellular reproduction linked in the process of inheritance?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
Inheritance is the process by which traits are passed from the parents to their offspring. The basic unit of inheritance in human is the DNA. For traits  to be passed from the parent to the offspring, the DNA in the cell must be duplicated and this happens through the process of cellular reproduction.
