Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The main purpose of the breathing by nose is to provide the optimum air quality which is required by the body.

The air that enters the nasal passage is moisten and heated when it passes through the nasal cavity.

When it travels through the passage the pathogens are killed by the mucous that lies in these area.

In this way, the air is filtered by the nasal passage. Hence, the correct answer is option A.

Many present-day animal phyla appeared suddenly in fossils formed 535-525 million years ago, during the paleozoic era of the pha
frez [133]

The correct answer is - No.

The Cambrian explosion is a term used for the big and rapid diversification of the animal species, but it is not the period in which the animal life started. The animal life started in the period between 620 and 550 million years ago, in what is known as the Vendian Period. In the Vendian Period, the first complex animal organisms appeared, started to develop and evolve, though it is not a period where there was a high diversification of the species. The later Cambrian Period provided better living conditions, and that resulted in a so called ''explosion of life'', which resulted in much more new species developing and evolving.

An estuary can protect species from
ziro4ka [17]
<span>. Estuaries have been called the "nurseries of the sea" because the protected environment and abundant food provide an ideal location for fish and shellfish to reproduce. Most commercially important fish species spend some part of their life cycle in estuaries. Besides fish, many species of birds depend on estuaries for food and nesting areas. Migratory birds use estuaries as stopover points for resting and feeding before continuing their journey. Marine mammals also use estuaries as feeding grounds and nurseries.</span>
