Answer:
A)100mL B)50mL C)The second option D)Hypoosmotic Environment
Explanation:
The average Na concentration in the seas and oceans of the world is around 3,5% which mean that in 100 ml of sea water, there is around 3,5 grams of Na.
The weight of one mol of NaCl is 58,44 grams. For 3,5 grams of NaCl, we get 3,5/58,44 = 0,060 mol of NaCl which is 0,060x1000 = 60 mmol/100ml. According to this and the information given in the question about the secretion of the salt glands', if the average sodium concentration is 600mmol/L, we have 60*10 = 600mmol/L so it would take 100 mililiters of water to excrete.
If the average Na concentration of the salt gland's secretion were 300 mmol/L, only 50 mililiters of water would be needed to excrete the same sodium load.
The second option of secretion is hyperosmotic to seawater because the concentration is higher.
Osmoregulation is the process of balancing the amount of water and salt between the body of the organism and its surrounding environment. For salt glands to be advantageous for osmoregulation, they need to be in a hypoosmotic environment.
I hope this answer helps.
The major evolutionary episode corresponding most closely in time with the formation of Pangaea was the Permian Extinctions.
The Permian Extinctions happened around 300 million years ago and lasted for around 15 million years. It eliminated over 95 percent of water life and 70 percent of species on land. It was one of the largest extinctions in the history of Earth.
The answer is ‘the only truly distinctive primate trait’. Prehensile hands are a distinctive trait of primates an opposable thumb (capable of grasping). The digits have nails instead of claws, and tactile pads enriched with sensory nerve fibers at the ends of digits to feel to manipulate objects.
