The fatty membrane that hangs like an apron from the inferolateral margin of the stomach and overlies the small intestine is called the Greater omentum.

Omentum is a layer of flat adipose tissue layer present between the digestive system and the outer layer that has a key function in protection, tissue regeneration and immune regulation.

The omentum that attaches the stomach with the transverse colon and covers the whole intestine is called greater omentum.

The omentum that attaches stomach and duodenum is called the lesser omentum.

how can scientists accurately compare atmospheric composition today with atmospheric composition thousands of years ago?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

They accurately compare the current atmosphere with the previous one, by assessing the amount of atmospheric gases present today, with the amount of atmospheric gases trapped in ice cores that they believe are millennial, that is, they have existed for thousands of years ago.

Explanation:

As we know, it is difficult to compare current characteristics of the planet earth with characteristics that the planet had in the past, thousands of years ago. This is because the ancient characteristics on earth are not fully available to be analyzed, since most of them have been modified over time.

To do this, scientists need to find factors that may have existed thousands of years ago and assess whether these factors have any account of the characteristics of the earth. In the case of atmospheric characteristics, it is common for scientists to compare the current atmosphere with the atmosphere of thousands of years ago, with the assessment of the amount of atmospheric gases trapped in ancient ice cores, with the amount of atmospheric gases present in the atmosphere today.

What kinds of traits do not evolve through natural selection?
Harrizon [31]

Natural selection doesn't favor traits that are somehow inherently superior. Instead, it favors traits that are beneficial (that is, help an organism survive and reproduce more effectively than its peers) in a specific environment. Traits that are helpful in one environment might actually be harmful in another.

(one again, I hope this helps ^^)
