The blood vessels farthest from the heart must have valves.

The valves which are present in the blood vessels prevent the backflow of the blood back into the specific organ.

There are different valves present in the heart are:

  • The tricuspid valve is situated between the right atrium and right ventricle.
  • The pulmonary valve is between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery.
  • The mitral valve is between the left atrium and left ventricle.
  • The aortic valve is between the left ventricle and the aorta.

Other vales which are present in the blood vessels are in leg. Leg veins do require the valves. If not present the blood will go back down into the feet because of the gravity. Thus there are various valves present in the leg veins.

Valves in veins are bicuspid, meaning they have two flap-like structures that regulate blood flow in the vein.

Choose all of the ways that cellular respiration is different from photosynthesis. Select the 4 correct answers. *
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

It uses glucose as a reactant.

It uses oxygen as a reactant.

It makes ATP.

It happens in the mitochondria.

Explanation:

It occurs in cells.  - this is false. Both cellular respiration and photosynthesis occur in cells.

It uses glucose as a reactant.  - this is true. Cellular respiration uses glucose as a reactant, it is broken down to release energy. Photosynthesis produces glucose.

It uses oxygen as a reactant.  - this is true. Cellular respiration uses oxygen as a reactant. In contrast, photosynthesis releases oxygen as a byproduct

It makes ATP. - this is true. Cellular respiration makes ATP. Photosynthesis uses energy to produce the sugar which is used in cellular respiration to synthesise ATP.

It happens in the chloroplasts.  - this is false. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts, not cellular respiration

It happens in the mitochondria.  - this is true. Respiration occurs in the mitochondria, whereas photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts.

It involves oxygen, glucose, carbon dioxide, and water. - this is false, Both photosynthesis and cellular respiration involve oxygen, glucose, carbon dioxide, and water. Photosynthesis produces oxygen and glucose using carbon dioxide and water. Respiration produces glucose and carbon dioxide using water and carbon dioxide.

The human genome contains about 3 billion base pairs. During the first cell division after fertilization of a human embryo, S ph
Nataly [62]

Answer:

5556

Explanation:

If a DNA polymerase synthesizes in average 50 nucleotides/second, that means that in three hours (10800 seconds) it synthesizes about 540000 nucleotides.

However, if the human genome is composed of 3000000000 (3 billion) base pairs (nucleotids), the minimum number of DNA polymerases (working in the same number of origins of replication) to finish the duplication of all the genome in three hours is 5555,5. (3000000000/540000). As we know there is no half polymerase, so we round to 5556.

5556 molecules of DNA polymerases acting on 5556  origins of replication are needed.

Communication between sdn controllers and routers is governed by ________.
galben [10]

Answer;

-Northbound APIs

Communication between SDN controllers and routers is governed by Northbound APIs.

Explanation;

-The northbound application programming interface (API) on an SDN controller enables applications and orchestration systems to program the network and request services from it.

-Northbound APIs can enable network functions like path computation, loop avoidance, routing and security. The northbound APIs can also used to facilitate innovation and enable efficient orchestration and automation of the network to align with the needs of different applications via SDN network programmability.
