Answer:

The first blank can be correctly filled up with the same genetic material and the second blank can be correctly filled up with to contract.

All the cells of the body such as muscle cells, nerve cell, cardiac cell, blood cell et cetera contain the same genetic material. They become specialized cell as a result of cell differentiation.

The function of the muscle cells is to contract which helps in locomotion and movement. Skeletal muscles help in locomotion and smooth muscles help in the function of internal organs such as uterus muscle contracts which help in delivering the baby.

The function of the nerve cells is to transmit signals from receptors to the central nervous system (CNS) and from CNS to effector organs.

Neurons and muscle cells perform different functions, however they have the same DNA (genetic material) contained within them.

The function of muscle cells is to mechanically contact to allow the body to move in space.

The function of nerve cells is to send and receive signals. in order to trigger an event or elicit a response.

How are mars and earth alike
Kryger [21]
Mars and Earth are very different planets when it comes to temperature, size, and atmosphere, but geologic processes on the two planets are surprisingly similar. On Mars, we see volcanoes, canyons, and impact basins much like the ones we see on Earth

Explain why genes located more than 50 map units apart behave as if they are not linked.
OlgaM077 [116]
This is on account of every chromosome just has up to 50 units so when it surpassed this number it's on an alternate chromosome, along these lines it can't be connected. 
One can decide whether qualities are connected or not by taking a gander at the posterity and deciding the recombination recurrence you can do this by taking the aggregate number of posterity that were recombined and partitioning it by the aggregate

Humans’ use of rocks and minerals as building materials is an example of which interaction? an interaction within the geosphere
Shalnov [3]

The correct answer is: an interaction between the biosphere and the geosphere.

The geosphere represents all of the rocks, minerals and ground that are found on and in Earth. It includes the ocean floor, all of the rocks on the surface, and all of the sand in the deserts.

Biosphere on the other hand is composed of all the living organisms on Earth (including human).

24. Name two types of pathways that help a body maintain homeostasis, and an example of each.
gavmur [86]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Homeostasis refers to the maintenance of relatively constant internal body processes. This is done in two ways

  • <em>Negative feedbacks</em>
  • <em>Positive feedbacks</em>

Negative feedback returns body processes back to normal after the process has been breached. An example is when the body temperature becomes too high or too low. At too high temperature, vasodilation of the skin's blood vessels occurs and more heat is lost to the surrounding from the skin, sweat is also produced by sweat glands and evaporation of the seat causes cooling. At too low temperature, vasoconstriction occurs leading to the conservation of more heat. The muscles also shake to generate more body heat

Positive feedback ensures that a breach of body processes reaches completion. An example is when a pregnant woman starts laboring. The increase in the amount of oxytocin in the blood leads to the contraction of the uterus consequently leading to the opening of the cervix. More and more oxytocin leads to more frequent and stronger contraction of the uterus untill the baby is born.

Which biome has a plant community dominated by plants that resist drought and store water, and a climate characterized by very l
hoa [83]

Answer;

-Hot desert biome

Explanation;

Hot Desert is characterized by very little rainfall or a lot of rain in a very short period. The soils are often salty because minerals do not get washed away. Thus, the climate is characterized by a very little precipitation.

-Plant adaptations: There are few plant species. these plants are adapted to resist drought and store water. For example; Spiny cacti that have thick, fleshy stems that conserve water are common. Their roots extend metres away from the plant to absorb water. Other plants have small, thick, waxy leaves that also store water. Many plants have spines or produce chemicals that protect them from being eaten.
