An epoch is longer than an era.
In certain organisms, like humans, there are two morphologically distinct types of gametes: (1) the male gamete (i.e. sperm cell) and (2) the female gamete (i.e. ovum). The male gamete is smaller in size and motile whereas the female gamete is several times bigger and non-motile. The haploid condition of the two gametes is essential so that at fertilization during sexual reproduction the integrity of the chromosomal number is maintained throughout generations.
Hope this helps.
An increase in the permeability of the cells of the collecting tubule to water is due to an increase in production of ADH. Hormone ADH also called vasopressin is responsible for regulating the amount of water in the blood and is released from the pituitary gland based on signals from the hypothalamus, which detects the water levels of the blood. When too much water is in the blood, the hormone release is decreased and more water is excreted in the kidneys and thus increasing urine output.
The answer would be the ozone layer. <span>A layer of ozone in the upper atmosphere absorbs </span>UV radiation<span> and </span>prevents<span> most of it from </span>reaching<span> the </span>Earth<span>. ... This means that more </span>ultraviolet radiation<span> can pass through the atmosphere to the </span>Earth's<span> surface, particularly at the poles and nearby regions during </span>certain<span> times of the year.
I hope that this helped you! Good luck. :)</span>
