Answer:

Earthworm - have a coelom and a closed circulatory system.

Scallops or clams - has a mantle and an open circulatory system.

Starfish - has an endoskeleton made of calcium-rich plates.

Spider - exhibits the phenomenon of molting.

Explanation:

Earthworm belongs to Phylum Annelida. They are metamerically segmented, triploblastic and bilaterally symmetrical. They have a closed circulatory system and a coelom (true body cavity).

Scallops or clams belong to Phylum Mollusca, the second largest animal phylum. They are coelomate, triploblastic, bilaterally symmetrical organisms having an open circulatory system. They have a calcareous shell covered body with a distinct head, muscular foot, visceral hump and a mantle (soft and spongy layer of skin) over the hump.

Starfish belongs to Phylum Echinodermata, which consists of exclusively free-living marine organisms. They have an endoskeleton made up of calcium carbonate structures.  They are coelomate, triploblastic and have a water vascular system that is used for respiration, locomotion, food capture and transport.

Spiders belong to Phylum Arthropoda. They have chitinous covered segmented bodies, jointed legs and exoskeletons (hard external shells).  Arthropods periodically shed their exoskeletons or shells in order to grow, this process is called molting. They are coelomate, triploblastic, bilaterally symmetrical organisms having an open circulatory system.

Liposomes consist of ________ bilayers that enclose an aqueous compartment where drugs can be contained for delivery to specific
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

Phospholipid bilayer

Explanation:

Liposomes are vesicles are spherical in shape. They consist of at least one phospholipd bilayer most especially phosphatidycholine. Liposomes are artficial vesicles similar to a membrane, because it has an hydrophilic core surrounded by a hydrophobic lipid bilayer.

Liposomes are artificial prepared and are used for the transportation of substances like drugs and nutrients between cell parts, outside of the cell and into the cell.  

In liposomal drug delivery, the liposome fuses with other internal cell membranes at the site of action and releases its liposomal content.

You have a plant with yellow seeds, which express a dominant phenotype. How would you determine the plant's genotype?. . . Condu
DENIUS [597]
If it displays the dominant genotype, we can assume that this plant would have a heterozygous (hybrid) genotype, i.e.

With a purebred recessive plant, the geneotypes would be 50% Bb and 50% bb.

With a purebred dominant plant, the genetpyes would be 50% BB and 50% Bb.

With a <span>heterozygous (hybrid) plant, the genotypes would be 25% BB, 50% Bb and 25% bb.</span>

Temka [501]
There are three main regions of the kidney.
<span>1.Renal cortex -  It is the outer region of the kidney which contains the renal corpuscles and the renal tubules (without the loop of Henle). It produces the erythropoietin.</span>
<span>2.Renal medulla  - It is the innermost part of the kidney which contains the renal pyramids.</span>
<span>3.Renal pelvis  -  It is the region that collects urine from the nephrons, thus it contains the place where ureter leaves the kidney.</span>
