Hypophyseal portal system  is a blood system of vessels in the microcirculation at the base of the brain, connecting the hypothalamus with the anterior pituitary. It is involved in quick transportation and exchange of hormones between the hypothalamus arcuate nucleus and the anterior pituitary gland. Hypothalamic-hypophyseal tract comprises of neurons that deliver vesicles with neurohormones from the hypothalamus to the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland. In this case, it is partly contained within the infundibulum (hollow stalk connecting the hypothalamus and the posterior pituitary gland).

During which stage of the cell cycle does the cell rest, grow, and copy DNA and organelles?
atroni [7]

The cell cycle or cell-division cycle is the series of events that take place in a cell leading to its division and duplication of its DNA (DNA replication) to produce two daughter cells. In bacteria, which lack a cell nucleus, the cell cycle is divided into the B, C, and D periods. The B period extends from the end of cell division to the beginning of DNA replication.

Which of the following are TRUE statements about red blood cells (erythrocytes)?
Romashka [77]

Answer:

The correct answer will be options A, B and E.

Explanation:

Red blood cells or RBC or erythrocytes are the cells present in the connective tissue which forms the blood. RBC perform various functions in the body but the primary function is the transport of the gases in the body.

The RBC are continuously formed in the bone marrow region of the bone form the hemopoietic stem cell found in the bone marrow. These cells produce a large amount of RBC that is about  2 million cells per second in a healthy adult.

When RBC are formed posses nucleus but when mature, they lack nucleus that is genetic material and organelles like mitochondria so, they are not able to divide.  

These RBC contain haemoglobin in their cytoplasm which shows high affinity to bind oxygen and low affinity to bind carbon dioxide to the iron group of haemoglobin.

Thus, options A, B and E are the correct answer.

<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

In the alveolus pictured above, a disease or injury to which structures would reduce the ability of oxygen to diffuse from the alveolar space to the capillary?

A. A and B

B. B and C

C. B and D

D. A and D

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

The correct answer is option D.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Alveoli is defined as the unicellular thickened sac like structure of lungs which helps in exchange of gases in lungs. The exchange membrane of lungs comprise of three structures -

A. The epithelium cells of Alveoli,

B. The basement membrane of alveolar epithelium,

C. The endothelial layer of blood capillary.

The red blood cells described here won't cause any problems to the diffusion of gases from alveolar cavity to blood. The structures mentioned here as the type 2 cells of Alveoli which secrete lecithin, a surfactant which releases the surface tension of Alveoli. This compound prevents the Alveoli from collapsing and helps in diffusion of gases. The other structure mentioned here as D are the alveolar epithelium which is the unicellular thickened membrane of Alveoli, helping in gaseous exchange.
