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.

To know more about the Valves, refer to this link:

How is a nuclear envelope similar to a cell membrane
Bond [772]

Answer:

It is similar because the nuclear envelope is a membrane similar to the cell membrane around the whole cell. There are pores and spaces for RNA and proteins to pass through while the nuclear envelope keeps all of the chromatin and nucleolus inside. When the cell is in a resting state there is something called chromatin in the nucleus.

How was HMS Beagle's voyage significant to science?
Kamila [148]
It was the trip that Charles Darwin went on in attempt to find the answer of how animals got on earth in the first place and how they changed over time. This later on helped him discover evolution and natural selection. The most significant find on this voyage was that he found that different types of finches evolved to the food around them. Smaller beaks meant the finch ate more small nutrients but larger beaks meant the finch ate more harder prey such as fish and worms.
