lbvjy [14]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Primary spermatocytes are always diploids

54 × 2 = 108

Explanation:

Primary spermatocytes are diploid (2N), meaning they have a full set of DNA; having a full set of chromosomes. They thus undergo meiosis to form two haploid (N) secondary spermatocytes containing half of the DNA. Therefore, the primary spermatocytes will have 108 chromosomes.

Use the principles of diffusion to explain why oxygen molecules in the tissues of the lung go into the blood
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Oxygen molecules in the tissues of the lung diffuse into the blood because the concentration of oxygen in the lung's tissues is more than the concentration of oxygen in the blood.

Explanation:

Diffusion is the movement of molecules from the region of higher concentration of the molecule to the region of lower concentration of the same molecule. Molecules in diffusion move <em>downward the concentration</em> <em>gradient</em> created by difference in concentration between two regions until an <em>equilibrium (equal concentration in the two regions)</em> is established.

Oxygen molecules diffuse into the tissues of the lung when an organism breathes-in during the process of breathing. The molecules in the now oxygen-rich tissues eventually start diffusing into the blood in the lung because the blood passing through the lung is always de-oxygenated or has lower oxygen concentration compared to the tissues of the lung.

Oxygenated blood moves into the heart, pumps round the body by the heart, gets depleted of oxygen and eventually find its way back to the lung where the process is repeated.

Diffusion of oxygen from the tissues of the lung into the blood will keep happening as long as oxygen keeps getting dissolved into the lung's tissues and an equilibrium is yet to be established between the tissues and the blood.

It will cause vasodilation of blood vessels in the brain.

CO2 is one of the metabolic end products that can alter the tone of the blood vessels in the brain. High CO2 levels cause vasodilation, which may cause headache, whereas low CO2 levels cause vasoconstriction, which may cause lightheadedness. The statements included in the other options are incorrect effects.

as a result of climate change earth's temperature is rising and sea ice is melting. what is a likely effect?
butalik [34]
Answer= Because polar bears depend on ice as a habitat to survive the more the temperature is rising and the sea ice melting as a result of global warming there is basically a possibility that the population of polar bears will decline because there will be no home (habitat)left for them to breed(survive)in.
