Answer: The correct answer is Sickle cell anemia.  

Sickle cell anemia is caused due to point mutation in the beta- globin chain of hemoglobin molecule. This causes the hemoglobin molecule to distort and the shape of the red blood cells resembles to sickle shape.

The sickle shaped cells can block the blood circulation and the circulation of oxygen is also disrupted in this case.

The species that is known as a robin in England has a yellow breast, and another species that is known as a robin in the United
Mamont248 [21]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

C. Different species can share the same common name.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Different organisms can share the same common name</u></em>, and thus the reason why scientists avoid using common naming while naming organisms.
  • Additionally, s<em><u>cientists avoid using common names because they are not specific to a specific species.</u></em> For instance, Robin is a common word that may be used to describe the many species of robin that are found in different regions of the earth, for example, Robin in England which has yellow breast, and robin in United states and have red breasts.
  • Therefore, <em><u>for the purpose of avoiding ambiguity and confusion in naming organisms scientists use scientific names while identifying various species.</u></em>

Trace the ductal pathway from the epididymis to the urethra. (Module 26.5C)
iragen [17]

Answer:

epididymis

ductus deferens

ampulla of ductus deferens

seminal gland

ejaculatory duct

urethra

Explanation:

Epididymis is a tube that connects the back side of the testicles to the vas deferens (ductus deferens). The vas deferens is the connecting link between epididymis and urinary tract/urethra and is responsible for transporting sperm to the urethra. Seminal vesicles are small glands that lie above the prostate gland and make up more than 50% of the total semen. Seminal vesicles are connected to the vas deferens through ejaculatory duct. This duct empties sperm and semen into the urethra

Hence, the correct order is

epididymis

ductus deferens

ampulla of ductus deferens

seminal gland

ejaculatory duct

urethra
