Answer:

There is a higher concentration of red blood cells in blood, as opposed to any other cell type

Explanation:

In blood, there are different components.

Cellular: containing red and white blood cells

Platelets: These are particles found in blood that allow your blood to clot when you get a cut. If platelets are absent from blood, then even the smallest of cuts will not stop bleeding

Plasma: This constitutes of most of the blood components because this is the fluid that transports the other components around the body.

The reason that the red blood cell's component in the centrifuged sample, is that most of the solids travelling in the body are red blood cells

Human embryonic development is the development and formation of the human embryo. It is characterized by the process of cell div
iragen [17]

The statements that correctly describe gestation are: the normal period of gestation is about 40 weeks; the stages of this process include: zygote, blastocyst, embryo, and fetus; and changes to the form of the embryo come from differentiation and growth.

The gestation period in humans lasts about 40 weeks and comprises different stages and processes from conception until birth. The main stages of this process include:

  • Zygote: Fertilized ovum.
  • Blastocyst: Cluster of cells that is the result of the zygote going through cell division.
  • Embryo: Unborn human that is still developing, usually before the 8th week of gestation.
  • Fetus: Unborn human in development after the 8th week of gestation.

Moreover, this process implies differentiation as cells specialize for specific functions, for example, muscle cells or nerve cells, and growth as the number of cells increases and therefore the embryo or fetus increases in size.

What are viable explanations for the consistent observation of a few black mice on the island?
PolarNik [594]

They undergone genetic mutation that influenced their fur color.

Mutations result either from accidents during the normal chemical transactions of DNA, often during replication, or from exposure to high-energy electromagnetic radiation (e.g., ultraviolet light or X-rays) or particle radiation or to highly reactive chemicals in the environment. Mutation can be of 4 types Germline mutations occur in gametes. Somatic mutations occur in other body cells. Chromosomal alterations are mutations that change chromosome structure. Point mutations change a single nucleotide. Frameshift mutations are additions or deletions of nucleotides that cause a shift in the reading frame. Factor that influenced  mutation are the size of the gene, its base composition, its position in the genome, and whether or not it is being actively transcribed influence its mutation rate.
