<span>very acidic ph - stomach
mucociliary escalator - intestines
cerumen and sebum - ear
lysozyme - tears and saliva
keratin and tightly packed cells - skin
</span>
The correct answer is "mucociliary escalator intestines".
The mucociliary escalator is a mechanism that belongs to the bronchi, not the intestines. The mucociliary escalator is a mechanism of self-clearing where cilium, cilia and mucus work together to expel any material that's solid, or not too fluid or gaseous, including pathogens. From the main bronchi to the alveoli there is a moist lining produced by the specific present epithelium. This epithelium presents cilia. The cilia are embedded in mucus. The mucus is what helps in trapping any material that's solid, or not too fluid or gaseous, including pathogens. After these are trapped so that they don't progress to the alveoli, the cilia move in such a way that push the particles again to the exterior of the bronchi, like an escalator.

8. Crossing over is an exchange of corresponding segments between nonsister
prisoha [69]

The main benefit of crossing over is that it increases genetic diversity.

<h2>Crossing over and Genetic Diversity</h2>

Crossing over ensures that the daughter cells produced are genetically more diverse than their parent cells.

The exchange of chromosomal segments makes the chromosomes of the daughter cells to be more sophisticated than that of their parents.

Increased genetic diversity in daughter cells increases their chances of survival as more genes are present in their genomes that could potentially make them more adaptable to the environment.

In summary, crossing over increases genetic diversity and genetic diversity increases the chances of survival in the face of changing environment.

swat32

The correct answers to fill into the blank spaces are;

<h3>What is wave?</h3>

Wave is a periodic <u>disturbance</u> that moves away from a source which carries <u>energy</u> with it. Waves can be typified according to the <u>direction</u> of motion of the vibrating particles with respect to the direction in which the waves travel and according to <u>medium</u> .

<u>Longitudinal</u> waves vibrate perpendicularly to the direction in which the waves travel. This wave exhibits up and down motion. Longitudinal waves vibrate <u>perpendicular</u> or back and forth to the direction in which the waves travel.

<u>Electromagnetic</u> waves are combination of transverse and longitudinal waves. These move in a circular pattern as the waves pass by.

<u>Mechanical</u> waves need solid, liquid and gas medium to propagate or travel. Transverse, mechanical and surface waves are examples of mechanical waves.

Electromagnetic waves do not need <u>medium</u> to propagate. Radio waves, ultraviolet, infrared, and gamma rays are examples of <u>electromagnetic</u> waves. The nature of waves can be described through its terms, quantities and <u>propagation</u>.

The <u>crust</u> and trough refer to the highest point and lowest point of a wave pattern, respectively. The <u>magnitude</u> of a transverse wave is the maximum displacement of a particle of the medium on either side of its normal position when the wave passes. The frequency of periodic waves is the number of waves that pass a particular point for every one second while the <u>Amplitude</u> is the distance between adjacent crests or troughs.

The period is the time required for one complete wave to pass a particular point. The <u>speed</u> of the wave refers to the distance the wave travels per unit time. It is related to the frequency of the wave and wavelength through the following equation: wave speed= frequency x wavelength.

The correct answer is <span>D) power company - produces energy. 

The Mitochondria produce the energy used by the other parts of the cell - called the ATP - in a process called the Krebs cycle. The Krebs cycle produces ATP - like the energy that a power plant produces and a secondary product is </span>CO_{23}, just like typical power plants also produce CO_{23} while producing energy. Both in mitochondria and in power plants, the more energy is produced, the more CO_{23}!
