The small, almond-shaped organs of the female reproductive system, suspended by ligaments in the upper lateral portion of the pelvic cavity are known as ovaries.

Ovaries are oval-shaped so are also termed almond-shaped organs and are present on the sides of the uterus in females. In females, the processes of pregnancy and ovulation which is also termed menstruation are controlled by the hormones that are made by ovaries. These hormones include estrogen and progesterone. Another major function of the ovary is that it releases the female gametes known as eggs during the menstrual cycle.

The ovaries are attached to two types of ligaments which are the ovarian ligament and suspensory ligament. Ovaries are connected to the womb by the ovarian ligament while the suspensory ligaments of the ovary contain the ovarian vessels and nerves.

Why is homeostasis important to the human body?
sergiy2304 [10]
Homeostasis is a tool that your body uses to keep things in balance. Such as your body temperature. Too hot, you start to sweat. (which cools you down as it evaporates) And when you're too cold, your body starts to shiver, effectively warming you up by making your body move rapidly.

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

It is a seeded vascular plant.

It does not depend on insect pollination.

Explanation:

The complete question is: <em>A scientist has discovered a new plant species in the Amazon rainforest. She tells her fellow scientists that the plant she has found produces a cone. What might they say about how this plant is different from an angiosperm? Its seeds have one or two cotyledons. Its stems' vascular bundles are scattered. It does not depend on insect pollination. It is a seeded vascular plant. </em>

<em />

<em>The correct option would be that the plant is a seeded vascular plant and does not depend on insect pollination.</em>

Gymnosperms are the only group of plants that produce cones. They are one of the plant groups that have vascular tissues in the form of xylem and phloem as well as been able to produce seed in the form fo cones. Hence, they are said to be seeded vascular plants.

Gymnosperms also carry out their pollination by relying solely on wind for the transfer of their pollen grain to the female organ. In other words, they do not depend on insect for pollination.

the is the thin layer of the mucosa responsible for pulling the mucosa into its many folds which increases the surface area of t
krek1111 [17]

yes, Muscularis  mucosa - The stomach and small intestine's mucosa are pulled into undulating folds by a thin layer of smooth muscle that is constantly tensed. The surface area that is available for digestion and absorption is significantly increased by these folds.

The submucosa is located directly beneath the mucosa, as its name suggests. It joins the underlying muscularis to the overlaying mucosa by way of a large layer of dense connective tissue. It has blood and lymphatic vessels (which carry nutrients that have been absorbed), as well as a few submucosal glands that secrete digestive juices. Additionally, it functions as a passageway for the submucosal plexus, a densely branched network of nerves.

These layers compress to encourage mechanical digestion, expose more of the food to the chemicals that aid in digestion, and transport the food along the canal.
