The muscles on the right side of Omar's body were smaller than those on the left side due to <u>Hemihypertrophy.</u>

<u></u>

  • A hereditary condition known as hemihypertrophy causes a person's body to expand excessively on one side compared to the other.
  • Because of continuing bone or soft tissue growth, one side of the body grows more quickly than the other.
  • Everyone who is affected can have a different appearance, and youngsters frequently have it.
  • One area of the body, like the legs, may be unaffected by the overgrowth. However, it might also affect the mouth, face, and limbs, among other body parts.
  • Although the gene that causes hemihypertrophy isn't always known, it can be passed on from parents to children.
  • Hemihypertrophy is frequently connected to chromosome 11 mutations in Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome.

Which characteristic differentiates amphibians from reptiles?
Stells [14]

Option D – amphibians may use their skin for gas exchange is the characteristic feature of amphibians that differs from reptiles.

Explanation:

The amphibian skin is moist, thin and marbled and supplied by blood vessels running on its surface. The moisture present in the skin dissolves the oxygen present in its surrounding which is absorbed by the blood vessels. Special glands help the amphibians to keep the skin moist.

The very thick and tough scales present on the reptiles prevent them to absorb oxygen through their skin. Hence, they breathe and respire through their lungs.

Amphibians have three-chambered heart. They do not develop amniotic eggs. Adult amphibians although spend much time on land, they breed only in water due to the absence of amniotic sac .
