Sponge larvae posses cillia with unusual terminal expansions which are curled or biconcave in shape externally, as seen by scanning electron microscopy. Thin sections, passing through the point where the ciliary shaft enters the expanded area reveal the ciliary axoneme to be surrounded by many membranous folds, some of which are vesicular. The 'club footed' cilia occur in disparate groups of Demospongiae and most frequently, all larval cilia are of this type. There is no immediately obvious correlation between the type of movement displayed by the larvae and the occurrence of terminally expanded cilia.

For a species with a diploid number of 26, indicate how many chromosomes will be present in the somatic nuclei of individuals th
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

<h2>Haploid=13</h2><h2>triploid=39 </h2><h2>tetraploid=52</h2><h2>trisomic=14 </h2><h2>monosomic=12</h2>

Explanation:

Given;

A species with a diploid number of 26,  so 26= 2n ( a diploid cell),

so in haploid condition, chromosome number becomes half (13 in this case). triplod is when 2n + n, and 2n +2n ( tetploid). Trisomy and monosomy is the addition or deletion of a sinlge chromosome of a sinlge set  .

Haploid=13, one chromosome from each pair of chromosome set,

triploid=39 (13× 3); diploid+ n( 3n)

tetraploid=52 (13× 4) 4n

trisomic=14 (13+1) ; n+1

monosomic=12 (13-1); n-1

If a plant looks purple, which light color is causing the plant to photosynthesize?
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Purple

Explanation:

To perform photosynthesis, violet light is the most important color, and it's from these wavelengths that plants get most of their energy. The reason for this is because out of the visible spectrum, red light is the longest wavelength light that the photosynthesis process can use, but it has the least energy

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. The two cerebral hemispheres are separated by the longitudinal fissure.

Explanation:

The longitudinal or intercerebral fissure is a deep cleft that divides the brain longitudinally into two hemispheres (the right and the left) joined together by the corpus callosum. Other fissures, such as the central sulcus, the lateral sulcus and the internal perpendicular fissure, divide each hemisphere into large cerebral lobes, which in turn have cerebral convolutions.
