I ts acts as a pump regulator where it has 4 chambers.
keep in mind that out of four two take blood fromm all over the body while two transport ut to other organs through veins and capillaries.
the deoxygenated blood enters the heart through two large veins, the inferior and superior vena cava, emptying oxygen-poor blood from the body into the right atrium.
As the atrium contracts, blood flows from your right atrium into your right ventricle through the open tricuspid valve.
When the ventricle is full, the tricuspid valve shuts. This prevents blood from flowing backward into the right atrium while the ventricle contracts.
As the ventricle contracts, blood leaves the heart through the pulmonic valve, into the pulmonary artery and to the lungs, where it is oxygenated. The oxygenated blood then returns to the heart through the pulmonary veins.

Left side of the heart:
The pulmonary veins empty oxygen-rich blood from the lungs into the left atrium.
As the atrium contracts, blood flows from your left atrium into your left ventricle through the open mitral valve.
When the ventricle is full, the mitral valve shuts. This prevents blood from flowing backward into the atrium while the ventricle contracts.
As the ventricle contracts, blood leaves the heart through the aortic valve, into the aorta and to the body.

Which statement best explains how the genetic code is universal? * The shape of a DNA molecule is the same in different species.
AysviL [449]

Answer:

A DNA sequence codes for the same proteins in different species

Explanation:

All living organisms store their genetic information in DNA (genetic material). The manner through which information in the genes are encoded is the GENETIC CODE. The genetic code comprises of all the codons that specifies amino acids in living organisms. The genetic code has several characteristics, which includes that the GENETIC CODE IS UNIVERSAL

The genetic code is said to be universal because all known living organisms use the same genetic code to encode their genetic information. This means that a DNA sequence codes for the same proteins in several different species. For example, codon AUG encodes the amino acid METHIONINE in every living organism.

the respiration in human start from breathing.the oxygen is inhale and passes through larynx and reaches upto trachea and it goes in the bronchus.it is also divided into bronchoioles. it leads into lung

the bronchoioles that enter in the lung lead to small air sac called alveoli and it exchange gases and here exchange of gas occur and carbon dioxide is transported back to nostril through same passage and the canbondioxie is exhaled.in this way the process of respiration is completed
