Compared to arteries, valves have no pulse, have thin walls and have valves that prevent backflow of the blood. The pressure in the veins is less than that of the arteries, hence, there is no pulse. They are nearer to the surface of the skin. It also connects arteries and capillaries which transport blood all throughout the circulatory system.

When the cardiac muscle cell is at rest, the concentration of _____________ is greater on the outside of the cell?
nordsb [41]

When the cardiac muscle cell is at rest, the concentration of sodium and calcium is greater on the outside of the cell.

The resting membrane potential (the cardiac muscle cell is at rest) is characterized by more negatively charged inside of the membrane comparing to the outside. The main ions found outside the cell at rest are: sodium (Na+), and chloride (Cl−), and Ca2+ whereas inside the cell it is mainly potassium (K+).

The brothers pictured below are identical twins. The boys in this picture look alike because their bodies contain identical carb
Romashka [77]

Answer:

nucleic acids.

Explanation:

The fusion of the sperm with the egg results in the formation of a zygote that develops into a new offspring. Twins refers to the two offspring which are a result of the same pregnancy. They are of two types. Monozygotic twins are a result of the single zygote (formed by the fusion of one egg with a single sperm) spiltting into two embryos forming the identical twins. Dizygotic twins are a result of two eggs fertilized with two different sperms forming the fraternal twins.

Identical twins are genetically simliar. The genetic material is derived from the same embryo and thus, the DNA of the identical twins are nearly identical. The spilitting of the embryo formed results in the separation of the same genetic material or identical DNA getting incorporated into the twins making them look alike in majority of the cases.
