8 0

Blood flows to the brain through the internal carotid and vertebral arteries and away from the brain through the internal jugular vein. The internal carotid artery supplies the brain, while the external carotid nourishes other portions of the head, such as the face, skull, scalp and the meninges. The vertebral arteries provide supply to the upper spinal cord, brainstem, cerebellum, and the posterior part of the brain.

Answer:

The correct answer is option a. internal carotid and vertebral; jugular

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

The internal and external carotid arteries carry blood between the head and neck, the difference is that one carries blood to the brain and the other to other parts of the head.

The internal carotid artery is the one that carries blood to the brain. Blood moves away from the brain through the jugular vein.

We can conclude that the correct answer is option a. internal carotid and vertebral; jugular

Many different ways, primarily through bone and muscle loss. The lack of pressure on bones causes the body to reabsorb calcium from them, weakening them and potentially causing kidney stones.

The pedigree below tracks the presence of dimples through a family's generation. Having dimples is an autosomal dominant trait.

yulyashka [42]

A pedigree is a representation of a family history tracking a trait. The graph shows the inheritance pattern of the trait and its expression through several generations.

<h3>What is an autosomal dominant trait?</h3>

The autosomal dominant trait is the characteristic that is coded by a gene located in an autosomal chromosome (this is, not a sexual chromosome).

This trait is dominant because it is coded by the dominant allele, meaning that the recessive allele codes for the absence of dimples. The presence of only one dominant allele in the genotype is enough for the idividual to express dimples.

<u> Genotype Phenotype </u>

DD, Homozygous dominant Dimples

Dd, Heterozygous Dimples

dd, Homozygous recessive No Dimples

<h3>What is a pedigree?</h3>

The pedigree is the representation of a family history conserning a certain trait. In this case, dimples.

The pedigree shows the expression -and inheritance pattern- of the trait through several generations.

To correctly interpret a pedigree, we need to know that

Family members

→ Individuals are represented with geometrical figures.

→ Males are squares

→ Females are circles

Trait/Phenotype

→ Healthy/normal/not affected individuals are represented with empty figures

→ Affected/mutated individuals are represented with solid black figures

Generations

→ Each file is represented with a roman number, indicating the Generation.

Here we will assume that

Individuals represented with solid figures express dimples -shaded individuals-. They can be either DD or Dd. This is because dimples is not usuall.

Individuals with no dimples are represented with empty figures and are dd.

According to the provided pedigree,

I-1 ⇒ man DD or Dd

I-2 ⇒ woman dd

II-1 ⇒ man Dd or DD

II-2 ⇒ woman dd

II - 5 ⇒ woman dd

III - 1 ⇒ man Dd

III- 2 ⇒ woman dd

III - 6 ⇒ woman dd

Since this pedigree does not specify the relationship between individuals, I can not answer the question based on it. So, I will attach another tree to specify genotypes.

I advise you study this new example, and then follow the same reasoning to choose the correct individual according to you pedigree.

Materials can move across capillary walls by _________.a. reabsorption. b. diffusion. c. filtration. d. All of the answers are c

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

The correct option is D) All of the answers are correct.

Explanation:

The walls of the capillaries are thin due to which the processes of diffusion and filtration becomes lot easier in them. Gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide cross the capillary walls through diffusion processes. As the walls of the capillaries are much thinner than that of veins and arteries hence. the processes of filtration and re absorption occur easily through them.
