Air displacement plethysmography (ADP) measures the volume of a controlled chamber compared to body volume to determine body fat percentage.

<h3>What is Air displacement plethysmography (ADP)?</h3>

A two-component model called air displacement plethysmography (ADP) measures mass and volume, allowing for an assessment of body density (Db). This allows for the estimate of fat and fat-free mass using body density, which is calculated by dividing mass by volume (FFM).

With air-displacement plethysmography, an object's volume is indirectly determined by calculating how much air it displaces inside a sealed chamber (plethysmograph). Therefore, a patient is placed inside the chamber and their body volume is measured by how much air they can move while sitting within.

The nervous system contributes to the success of birds as flying animals because of
Paladinen [302]
The nervous system contributes to the success of birds as flying animals because of all of these following things:
1. the well-developed integrative center of the brain that controls eating, singing, and flying
2. the well-developed center used to coordinate movement and balance
3. the well-developed optic lobes

Thanks to these things, birds are quite successful at flying because of their developed nervous system.

Each chromosome has genes that control wing shape, body color, antenna type, and eye color.
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is - True.

Explanation:

In a simplified drosophila or fruit fly genome, Each chromosome of the homologous pair of chromosomes has the genes for the body color, wing shape, antenna type, and eye color, and all are located on the same chromosome.

So on the basis of the explanation given above it is clear that in Drosophila or fruit flies it is true that Each chromosome has genes that control wing shape, body-color, antenna type, and eye color.

Which of the following statements comparing respiration in fish and in mammals is correct?
levacccp [35]

Answer: The following statements <em>comparing respiration in fish and in mammals</em> is correct:

  • The movement of the respiratory medium in mammals is bidirectional, but in fish it is unidirectional.

Explanation:

<u>Breathing </u>is the process by which living beings <em>exchange gases</em> with the external environment. It consists of the <u>entry of oxygen</u> into the body of a living being and the <u>exit of carbon dioxide</u> from it .

Active ventilation occurs if the animal produces the currents (of air or water) that flow to and from its respiratory membranes. It can be :

  • Unidirectional. (air or water is pumped onto the respiratory membrane in only one direction).
  • Bidirectional. (air or water is transported to the respiratory membrane and moves away from it through the same route like in the mammals).
