<h2>Diving response</h2>

Explanation:

  • The plunging reaction in human beings is described by breath-holding, easing back of the pulse (jumping bradycardia), decrease of appendage blood stream and a continuous ascent in the mean blood vessel circulatory strain.
  • <em>The bradycardia results from expanded parasympathetic upgrade to the cardiovascular pacemaker.</em>  
  • Hydrostatic weight on the outside of the body because of head out drenching in water causes negative weight breathing which movements blood into the intrathoracic circulation.

How would you know whether it was in metaphase i and metaphase ii.
egoroff_w [7]

Metaphase 1 is associated with meiosis 1 whereas the metaphase 2 is associated with meiosis 2. The main difference between metaphase 1 and 2 is that chromosomes are attached as homologous pairs at the equator during the metaphase 1 and during metaphase 2, single chromosomes are attached at the equator

Question 2 of 25

The sentence a Venus flytrap closes its leaves when its trigger hairs are stimulated is the best example of a living thing responding to its environment (option B).

<h3>What does characterize living organisms?</h3>

The main characteristics of living organisms refer to features shared by different life forms, which are essential to sustaining life, i.e. their metabolic activities in order to perpetuate across time.

One of the main characteristics that sustain life is the ability to respond to environmental stimuli. In this regard, it has been debated if this feature is the main characteristic that sustains life, but detractors of this idea state that it is not the main feature because viruses are able to respond to stimuli and they are not alive.

Therefore, with this data, we can see that the ability to respond to stimuli is one of the main features of living organisms.

Metabolic pathways that involve the degradation of large molecules to smaller ones are classified as ________. Metabolic pathway
skad [1K]

Answer:

Catabolic

Explanation:

It is catabolic becaus it is a metabolic pathway that involves the process of breaking down large complex molecules in the living cells into smaller molecules thereby releasing energy.

Examples of these metabolic pathway are the break down of fat in adipose tissues into fatty acids, glycolysis, citric acid cycle, oxidative deamination of neurotransmitters e.t.c.

A cross between two linked genes was done in coupling configuration and in repulsion. What is expected for the recombination fre
iren [92.7K]

A cross between two linked genes was done in coupling configuration and in repulsion. In coupling, the recombination frequency is greater than 1/16 and in repulsion, the recombination frequency is less than 1/16

If the cross between two linked genes is in coupling, then the recombination frequency is greater than 1/16 having the genotype aabb and phenotype ab.

If the cross between two linked genes is in repulsion, then the recombination frequency is less than 1/16 having the genotype aabb and phenotype ab.

Coupling is the gamete entered having genes from identical parents having same inheritance.

Repulsion is the gamete entered from different parents having separate inheritance.

Genes in coupling configuration on a homologous chromosome have two wild alleles and two mutant alleles on the other homologous chromosome.

Genes in repulsion configuration have a wild allele on one gene and the second gene on other homologous chromosome having a mutant allele.
