Answer:

The correct answer would be "supplying oxygenated blood to the arteries that travel to all major body parts".

The aorta is the largest artery of the body which is connected to the left ventricle of the heart.

Thus, it receives oxygenated blood from the heart.

The aorta is divided into smaller and arteries and ultimately into capillaries including coronary arteries.

Thus, it transports the oxygenated blood from the heart to all parts of the body such as heart itself, brain, neck, abdomen et cetera.

The right answer is supplying oxygenated blood to the arteries that travel to all major body parts

Aorta is the principal artery of the body.

It starts from the left ventricle of the heart, passes through the thorax and abdomen to separate at the lower part of the abdomen, into two branches called common iliac arteries for the lower limbs. We talk about thoracic aorta then abdominal aorta along its path in relation to the anatomical position. All arteries in the body (carrying oxygenated blood) are directly or indirectly derived from the aorta except the pulmonary artery.

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

Explain the criteria for categorizing phenomena as science (Consistent, Observable, Natural, Predictable, Testable, and Tentativ

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Consistency: Consistency is the property of the phenomena where the result of the observation or experiment should be consistence. The degree of the variation between the observation should very low.

Observable: The outcome of the result of the experiment should be observable and the result should be record able.

Natural: For the happening of the event, it should be explainable with the reference of the natural events.

Predictable: The event should be able to predict that can be explained on the basis of the naturally occurring event.

Testable: the cause of the natural event should be able to tested on the basis of variable environment in controlled environment to draw the different result and a conclusion based on the result.

Tentativeness: the scientific theory should be such that it could be tested upon. With the development of science, the theory should be modifiable and even proven wrong.

What would happen if the American bullfrog went extinct? NO LINKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ryzh [129]

Answer: The death of frogs would send a ripple through the ecosystem. The number of animals that eat the frogs will die off, then the animals that eat them will go hungry, and their populations will be devastated as well. This would just keep going up the food chain

Explanation:

Invasive bullfrogs upset the balance of predator-prey interactions and competition for food and shelter, but they also may be worsening another ecological disaster in the amphibian world. ... The invasive American Bullfrog can act as a vector, harboring this fungus, with no ill effects, and spread it to other amphibians

hopefully this helps :)

(d) State the null hypothesis for the experiment whose data are graphed in Figure 2. Provide evidence to support or refute the s

Varvara68 [4.7K]

The null hypothesis here is "the insertion of the wild type MSH2 gene does NOT reduce the number of C. neoformans C3 and C6 cells". This hypothesis is not supported by Figure 2, thereby the alternative hypothesis is accepted.

In the scientific method, a null hypothesis is a plausible explanation that states that there is no statistically significant difference between a certain feature and/or variable of a particular population.

In this case, the null hypothesis indicates that there are no differences associated with the insertion of the wild-type MSH2 gene variant (i.e., the normal allele) in the growth rate of C. neoformans strains on a medium containing a toxic chemical (mutagenic agent).

Figure 2 does not support the null hypothesis because the growth of wild-type MSH2 gene inserted C. neoformans C3 and C6 strains is inhibited when they grow on a medium containing a toxic chemical, thereby this hypothesis is rejected and the alternative hypothesis is accepted.
