Why aren't organisms on the seafloor crushed by water pressure?

Biology

fiasKO [112]2 years ago

Answer: The deep-sea organisms found today have undergone evolution in the past and are very complex now because their body structure also varies from that of the organisms that are present at a lower depth.

The bodies of these organism does not contain any air cavities in which the pressure could exert. It is because of this, the organism are quite solid without any air in their bodies, thereby they can withstand extreme high pressure.

The organisms on the seafloor have do not have air inside their bodies. Unlike the hollow viscera of animals in the surface, the viscera of seafloor organisms are filled with fluid. Therefore, the internal and external pressure is equal and these organisms are not crushed.

What are some functions of noncoding DNA?
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Explanation:

The non-coding DNA sequences forms the part of the organism's DNA. It is the part of the human genome which does not encode for any protein sequence. Some of the non-coding DNA may be transcribed into into any of the functional non-coding RNA molecules such as ribosomal RNA, transfer RNA and regulatory RNA. Other functions of the non-coding DNA involve translational and transcriptional regulation of the protein coding sequences, origin of DNA replication process, scaffold attachment, telomeres and centromeres.

Continuous rotation of the CT x-ray tube and detector array, with simultaneous movement of the CT couch, has been accomplished t
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

The options

A. Additional cables

B. Slip rings

C. Multiple rows of detectors

D. Electron beam CT.

The CORRECT ANSWER IS B.

B. Slip rings

Explanation:

During the 1990s, the use of slip ring technology promoted consecutive rotation of the x-ray tube (via removal of cables) and concurrent couch locomotion.

The Sixth-generation CT scanning is referred to as helical (or spiral) CT—allowing procurement of volume multislice scanning.

Today's helical multislice scanners, makes use of thousands of detectors (around 60+ rows), can derive continuous data procurement of 128 "slices" per tube rotation and can undergo 3D multiplanar reformation (MPR).

Fifth-generation CT employs electron beam; as the ultra high-speed CT is employed majorly for cardiac imaging.

Second-order neurons of ascending pathways that contribute to sensory perception terminate in the ________. Second-order neurons
madam [21]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-Thalamus

Explanation:

The somatosensory pathway is the pathway which sends the receptor generated sensory impulses mostly the temperature and touch to the central nervous system.

The pathway is composed of three types of neurons called primary order neuron, second-order neuron and tertiary order neuron.

The second-order neuron receives the signals from the first-order neurons and carries the signals to the relay part of the brain called thalamus. The thalamus is present in the forebrain region of the brain where it receives, analyses and sends the signals to the different region of the cerebral cortex.

Thus, the thalamus is the correct answer.

Why are lipids unique when compared to the other macromolecule groups?
Veronika [31]
Lipids are unique because, they are made from one carbon skeleton unlike the other macro molecules groups which are made from smaller building blocks.
With the exception of steroid hormones, lipids are generally hydrophobic. Also lipids are relative small molecules when compare in size with other macromolecules.

How much more CO2 is in the atmosphere today compared to 150 years ago?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and traps heat in the atmosphere. Without it and other greenhouse gases, Earth would be a frozen world. But humans have burned so much fuel that there is about 30% more carbon dioxide in the air today than there was about 150 years ago, and Earth is becoming a warmer place.
