During Pangea, Madagascar and India were one landmass. The species of frogs were homogenous across the
landmass. However, after continental
drift that began approximately 88 years ago,
allopatric speciation occurred to form different species on the two continents.
The dusky salamanders on the two continents that could once reproduce viable offspring 88 years
ago, cannot reproduce viably today because
they have diverged into two different species now.
Answer:
1. Transverse foramina present: Cervical
2. No canals or foramen present. It articulates superiorly with the sacrum: Coccyx
3. Receive the most stress: Lumbar
4. Attach to ribs: Thoracic
5. Articulates with hip bones of the pelvis: Sacrum
Explanation:
The vertebral column is a <u>series of 33 bones called vertebrae</u> that play a key role in organ protection, movement of body, and overall support. The column has been divided into <u>5 different regions</u> with the number of bones.
<u><em>1. Cervical Vertebrate</em></u><u>:</u> These are the group of <u>seven vertebrae of the neck</u>, start immediately below the skull. Two cervical bones C1 and C2 are unique in function. They are responsible for the movement of the head. They have <u>transverse foramina</u> which <u>gives passage to vertebral artery and vein</u>.
<em><u>2. Thoracic Vertebrae:</u></em> They are a group of twelve small bones that form the vertebral spine in the upper trunk. The function of the thoracic vertebrae is to articulate with ribs to produce the bony thorax.
<em><u>3. Lumbar Vertebrae: </u></em>This is the largest segment of the vertebral column that consists of 5 bones between the rib cage and pelvis. They <u>carry all of the upper body weight</u> providing flexibility and movement to the trunk region. This is why it can <u>receive the most stress easily</u>.
<em><u>4. Sacrum Vertebrae: </u></em>There are 5 sacral vertebral fused bones. It <u>connects to the hip bones and play role in forming a strong pelvis</u>.
<em><u>5. coccyx Vertebrae:</u></em> These are a group of 4 fused bone. There is <u>no vertebral canal due to a lack of vertebral arches</u>. They <u>provide </u>an <u>attachment site for muscles</u> ligament and tendons. They also <u>play a role in stabilization and support</u> while sitting.
<span> A virus is not a living thing so antibiotics, intended to kill living things, are not effective. A virus cannot multiply outside a living host cell. There is no treatment for a virus, just supportive therapy. The body will fight off most viruses over the course of time. Vaccines do not cure viruses, so the only way to protect your goat from viruses is through specific vaccines.
So the answer is a virus</span>
Answer:
In the follicular phase, the follicles grow inside the ovary. The ovulatory phase is the time of greatest fertility for women. In it, estrogen levels peak just before the egg is released. In the luteal phase, after ovulation the follicular structure that remains in the ovary reorganizes and becomes a gland known as the corpus luteum. The self-determined life of the corpus luteum causes it to degenerate after 14 days and end a menstrual cycle. At the end of the luteal phase, progesterone and estrogen levels drop and menstruation occurs.
Explanation:
The follicular phase is where follicles develop (fluid-filled cavities in the ovary that contain an undeveloped egg) that will eventually house the egg. For the development of follicles, the body sends a signal to the brain to start the production of follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), the follicles begin to develop and produce estrogen. In the ovulatory phase, the level of estrogen in the body continues to rise, causing a rapid rise in LH. This increase causes the secretion of proteolytic enzymes that will degrade the follicular tissue allowing the maturation process of the ovum and its release to finish, a fact known as "ovulation". Ovulation usually occurs between 24 and 36 hours after the LH surge, so luteinizing hormone is a good factor for measuring the period of maximum fertility and knowing the fertile days of the woman. In the luteal phase, the corpus luteum develops that will last until a possible pregnancy or menstruation occurs, starting the next cycle. The egg, after being released, travels through the fallopian tube to the womb. It can survive up to 24 hours and sperm up to 5 days inside the uterus, therefore the days before ovulation and the day of ovulation itself, which can be calculated with the ovulation calendar, are those of maximum fertility and higher chances of pregnancy. After ovulation, the follicle begins to contract but continues to produce progesterone and begins to produce estrogen in order to continue preparing the uterus to receive the embryo.
Answer:
Option A, accumulation
Explanation:
As we can see in the image, the water gets heated and convert its pahse from liquid to gas i.e from liquid water to water vapor. As it rises above, it condenses and converts from water vapor into liquid water. The liquid water then moves in the downward direction and collects at the base. This process of collection at base can be related to accumulation of running water.
Option A is correct
