Answer:

The correct answer is - Tibia.

Explanation:

The distal end is the position that is far from its point of origin. Distal is the site that is farthest to the center of the body. The opposite of the distal is proximal which means the site is near to the center of the body.

The distal end of the femur is articulate with the bone known as tibia which is form knee joint with kneecap and helps in distributing the body weight to the foot. The head of the femur articulates with acetabulum forms hip joint.

Thus, the correct answer is - the tibia.

Because the human embryo is able to split during early cleavage or blastocyst formation to produce two viable progeny, it is sai
juin [17]

Answer:

This question lacks options, options are:

a) indirect

b) mosaic

c) determinative

d) regulative

e) direct.  

The correct answer is d.

Explanation:

The egg (ovum) like the embryo during the first embryonic divisions, do not possess any sign of polarity. This development mechanism can be called regulative development(in contrast to the mosaic model) since the fate of the cells that originate is not fixed and can be modified during development. In regulative embryos, part of the embryo can be removed and the remaining cells can compensate for the loss and give a complete individual as the final product.The strongest evidence that continues to support this regulatory model is based on the plasticity or potential that mammalian cells possess before implantation. It is known that the blastomeres produced by the first divisions can be replaced with each other or even can be eliminated without apparently altering the embryonic development and therefore they are equivalent (without polarity).

What are spores and would they be located on the fruiting body
frez [133]
<span>In cup fungi, the spore-producing asci are located on the inner surface of the mature fruiting body. Spores are released in a cloud when the asci break open. Gilled mushrooms have basidia located on the gills on the underside of the cap. The spores are dropped from the gills when mature.</span>

An example of vesicle-mediated transport would be:
WITCHER [35]
An example of vesiscle-mediated transport would be cell secretion by exocytosis.

The reason why this would be an example of vesicle-mediated transport is because all the other types of transport listed here are not something you would call vesicle-transport; the substances don't really get transported in vesicles. This is different in exocytosis where the compounds gets packaged into vesicles.
