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.

Answer:

       The right answer to this question is option D. Convergent evolution.

Explanation:

       Convergent evolution is a process defined by when an organism develops the same, or at least near that, characteristics, for a specific reason, but they don't have the same origin. In this case, the cacti in both deserts have pretty much the same characteristics, and this happens because both these plants need water to survive, and in order to save it, they have barrel-shaped stems, short-lived leaves, and spines. All of these things help them in saving the water and capturing it when it's possible.

        The convergent evolution is when both these organisms develop equally, but are not originally from the same place, the environment being the one to shape this.

Anvisha [2.4K]

It is because of the different neurotransmitters and their receptors.

Sympathetic stimulation of arterioles in skeletal muscle is mediated by epinephrine acting on its β-adrenergic receptors.  

Sympathetic stimulation   of vasoconstriction occurs as a result of activation of α-1 adrenergic receptors by norepinephrine released by post-ganglionic sympathetic neurons.
