There are four phyla or categories of fish, Hagfish, lampreys, cartilaginous and bonyfish.
lianna [129]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The correct answer is three.

Explanation:

A fish refers to a kind of species that possesses a backbone, and thrives in the water, and possesses fins. The majority of the fishes exhibit scales covering over their bodies and the majority of them breathe via gills. Fish form a very diverse group, that is, almost half of all the vertebrates are fish.  

The fishes are differentiated into three prime kinds, and they are differentiated on the basis of their skeletons and the structure of their mouths. These are cartilaginous fishes, jawless fishes, and the bony fishes. All the mentioned three types are ectotherms or cold-blooded. Of these, the jawless fishes were the most primitive vertebrates, the hagfishes and the lampreys are the only thriving jawless fishes known today.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

is a thick band of neural fibers enabling communication between the two brain hemispheres.

Explanation:

A brain can be defined as an organ of soft nerve tissue that is found in the skull of vertebrates and it's typically responsible for the coordination of nervous activities, intellect and sensation.

The human brain consists of various sections and these includes;

I. Anterior Cingulate Cortex (ACC) which resembles a bow or collar surrounding the frontal part of the corpus callosum. This is the frontal part of the cingulate cortex which helps to make complex cognitive functions such as impulse control, decision-making, emotions and empathy.

II. Ventral prefrontal cortex in humans are interconnected with the brain and are responsible for the processing of risk, empathy, fear and social decision-making

III. The Cerebral Cortex: this part of the brain primarily comprises of grey matter, foldable sheets of neurons and forms its outermost layer. Therefore, cerebral cortex is known as the outermost layer of the brain (cerebrum) and thus, makes up half of its weight. It is about 2.5 millimeters in thickness and as such it's able to fold.

The corpus callosum is a large, thick band of C-shaped neural fibers found beneath the cerebral cortex and it's saddled with the responsibility of enabling communication between the two brain hemispheres i.e the right hemisphere and the left hemisphere.

What force of evolution is solely responsible for the creation of new genes?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

There are four forces of evolution: mutation, gene flow, genetic drift, and natural selection. Mutation creates new genetic variation in a gene pool. Gene flow and genetic drift alter allele frequencies in a gene pool.

During fertilization, a haploid sperm cell unites with a haploid egg cell to form a diploid zygote, as shown below.
Alexeev081 [22]

Explanation:

Fertilization, pictured in Figure 24.23a is the process in which gametes (an egg and sperm) fuse to form a zygote. The egg and sperm each contain one set of chromosomes. To ensure that the offspring has only one complete diploid set of chromosomes, only one sperm must fuse with one egg. In mammals, the egg is protected by a layer of extracellular matrix consisting mainly of glycoproteins called the zona pellucida. When a sperm binds to the zona pellucida, a series of biochemical events, called the acrosomal reactions, take place. In placental mammals, the acrosome contains digestive enzymes that initiate the degradation of the glycoprotein matrix protecting the egg and allowing the sperm plasma membrane to fuse with the egg plasma membrane, as illustrated in Figure 24.23b. The fusion of these two membranes creates an opening through which the sperm nucleus is transferred into the ovum. The nuclear membranes of the egg and sperm break down and the two haploid genomes condense to form a diploid genome.
