The superior vena cava returns most of the venous blood from the heart to the right atrium.

The whole return of systemic venous blood goes to the right atrium. Either the inferior vena cava or the superior vena cava receives the majority of the blood. The superior vena cava receives systemic venous circulation, which includes blood from the head, neck, chest, shoulders, and upper limbs, from above an imaginary line drawn at the level of the diaphragm.

Most of the body above the diaphragm is drained via the superior vena cava. The axillary vein, which originates in the axillary area, goes through the body wall to produce the subclavian vein on both the left and right sides. The brachiocephalic vein is created when it unites with the external and internal jugular veins of the head and neck.

Arrange the symbols to form a DNA molecule.

Julli [10]

The right answers are mentioned in the picture.

A base pair (bp) is the pairing of two nucleobases located on two complementary strands of DNA or RNA. This pairing is carried out by hydrogen bridges. There are four types of nucleic bases: A-T-C-G, these letters for Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine. A with T and C with G.

It is also necessary to take into account the antiparallel character of the DNA strands. If a strand is in the 5 '3' direction, its complete strand is in the 3 '5' direction.

Protists can be:________.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

e) unicellular, colonial, or multicellular.

Explanation:

Protists originates from the Kingdom Protoctista. They comprise of organisms that are unicellular (Amoeba) or unicellular-colonial (volvox) in nature and which have no tisssues, therefore they are at the cellular level of organization.

Examples include, Amoeba, Paramecium, Euglena, Slime mold, Kelp, Diatoms, DInoflagellates. etc.

Some of them are also considered to be multicellular eukaryotes e.g slime molds, red algae etc. Eukaryotic organisms are organisms that possess cells containing a nucleus.

Characteristics in which protists exhibit varies from one species to the other.

For example, the mode of nutrition in eukaryotic algae are autotrophic in nature, in amoeba, they are gifted with pseudopods(false feets) in which they used to engulf prey(a term known as phagocytosis) therefore making them to be heterotrophic in nature.

In protist, locomotion varies from one organism to another. For example, in Amoeba , locomotion is achieved by extending and retracting pseudopods, Euglena are flagellated in nature , hence they move with the flagella. In Paramecium that are ciliated in nature, they move by propelling their cilia. etc.
