Answer:
Tight junctions - prevent liquid from seeping between cells
Desmosomes - act as rivets to hold adjacent cells together when epithelial tissue moves
Gap junctions - allow movement of cytosol, ions, and small molecules between animal cells
Plasmodesmata - openings through the cell walls of plant cells that allow adjacent cells to share materials
Explanation:
1) Tight junctions are one of the cell junctions found in animal cells. Tight junctions function to prevent the flow of liquid materials between cells.
2) Desmosomes are another type of cell junctions whose function is to form a connection between two adjacent cells. The structure formed by this connection confers strength upon the tissues involved.
3) Gap junctions are the most commonly found cell junctions found in animal cells that connects adjacent cells allowing the passage of cytosol, ions and other small molecules in them from one adjacent cell to another.
4) Plasmodesmata is a cell junction found in plant cells. They are small openings lying across the cell wall of plant cells whose function is to connect the cells and facilitate the movement of materials from one cell to another.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Serous membranes are found around organs to lubricate them and reduce friction
Answer:
Homology is similarity due to shared ancestry between a pair of organisms in different taxa. Both bats and humans have a common mammalian ancestor.
They diverged and adapted their arms for different functions.
Explanation:
Homologous features are physical features shared due to evolutionary history (a common ancestor).
Answer: food chains or webs
In an ecosystem, energy from the sun is transferred by the way of food chains or webs. A food chain is a linear sequence of organisms through which food and energy is passed as one organism eats the another. A food web is the interconnection or relation of food chains. In a food chain energy is distributed among the trophic levels. Plants are primary producers which traps energy from sun for photosynthesis and belong to first trophic level in the food chain. The energy of sun present in plants is transferred to subsequent higher trophic levels when plants are consumed by other organisms.
