Answer:
b. pass through pores in the capillary endothelium
Explanation:
The fenestrated capillaries and sinusoids have pores in their endothelium. These pores or the intracellular clefts vary in size between the fenestrated capillaries and sinusoids. Sinusoids have larger intracellular clefts. The pores serve as a passage for the movement of water-soluble substances, proteins and other substances that cannot cross the hydrophobic interior of the cell membranes.
Water-soluble hormones also cannot pass through the capillary walls. Therefore, these hormones pass through the pore or the fenestrations present in the endothelium of capillaries.
A zoonosis (zoonotic disease or zoonoses -plural) is an infectious disease that is transmitted between species from animals to humans (or from humans to animals).
Answer:
Commensalism only occur among biotic factors
Explanation:
Abiotic factors are non-living factors that interacts with the biotic factor within an ecosystem. Commensalism is an association between two organisms in which one benefits and the other derives neither benefit nor harm.
From the above definition of commensalism, it is clear to note that it only involves two organisms rather than non-living organisms, hence; commensalism involves only biotic factors
Answer choices:
- A frame shift mutation in the X chromosome of a cheek cell
- A chromosomal mutation in the Y chromosome of a kidney cell
- A point mutation in the first chromosome of a sperm cell
- A substitution mutation in the third chromosome of a uterus cell
Answers:
A point mutation in the first chromosome of a sperm cell
Explanation:
Only mutations that affect the germ line are passed on to the next generation. Therefore, only mutations in the egg and sperm of an individual have the potential to affect the next generation.
Mutations in cheek cells, kidney cells, and uterus cells might cause cell death or cancer. This genetic material is not passed on to the next generation, only the egg and sperm contribute this material. Therefore, only mutations here will affect the generation.
