Paneth cells are specialized immune cells that are found in the gastrointestinal tract. Paneth cells act as anti-microbial defence for our bodies. It is found in the crypts of the intestine. It is also responsible for the renewal of epithelial layer cells which keep bacteria from entering the intestines.

took test and got it right
Answer:
Animal cells tend to do best in an isotonic environment, plant cells tend to do best in
a hypotonic environment. This is demonstrated in the attached PDF.
Explanation:
A cell that does not have a rigid cell wall, such as a red blood cell, will swell and lyse (burst) when placed in a hypotonic solution, a process called cytolysis. Cells with a cell wall will swell when placed in a hypotonic solution, but once the cell is turgid (firm), the tough cell wall prevents any more water from entering the cell. When placed in a hypertonic solution, a cell without a cell wall will lose water to the environment, shrivel, and probably die. In a hypertonic solution, a cell with a cell wall will lose water too. The plasma membrane pulls away from the cell wall as it shrivels, a process called plasmolysis.
I hope this helps. If not I am really sorry!
Answer:
DNA evidence revealed the American vultures share more recent ancestor with the Storks
Explanation:
The hooded vultures that is mostly found in the African continent have a close resemblance with the American vultures and were traditionally classified to belong to the Falcon family.
However, it was observed that the American vultures shared a similar behavior with Stork which is not common to the vulture found in Africa, including the hooded vulture. The Stork and the American vulture exhibit the behavior of urinating on their legs when being overheated. When the urine gets evaporated, it helps them to cool their body temperature.
This shared behavior between the storks and the American vultures led scientists into using molecular analysis in analyzing the DNA of the hooded vultures found in Africa, the American vultures, and the stork.
Evidence from the DNA analysis later revealed that the American vultures and the storks share a more common DNA sequences than African vultures and American vultures do.
