Answer:
The correct answer is "strengths: inexpensive, easy to culture, short life cycle, large number of offspring; weaknesses: invertebrate model, some diseases such as immunological cannot be modelled, anatomical features are very different from humans"
Explanation:
The fruit fly <em>Drosophila melanogaster</em> is one of the most used animal model for genetic and biomedical studies. There are many advantages of using Drosophila as model, including that it is very inexpensive to handle, it is easy to culture, it has a short life cycle allowing to observe the changes in phenotype very quickly and its large number of offspring allows to include several repetitions per trait in a study. However, there are some weaknesses of using Drosophila to study human biology. First, obviously the fruit fly is very different from humans, it is an invertebrate and its anatomical features are very different, which makes impossible to model some disorders such as immunological diseases.
Answer:
The correct answer is option d) nutrients absorption.
Explanation:
The stomach has several important functions. Mechanically digestion involves the contraction of muscles of the stomach and churning of the food to enhance digestion. The secretion of HCl and enzymes is an important role of the stomach for digestion.
Nutrient absorption is a major function of the intestine specifically small intestine for nutrient absorption.
Thus, the correct answer is d) nutrients absorption.
Production of the mature sperm cells have 4 step process beginning at puberty and throughout the male's lifetime. Spermiogenesis is the final process for production of sperm where the spermatids mature into motile spermatozoa. For humans, the spermatogenesis takes 74 days to 120 days and if the transport on the ductal system is included it would take 3 months.
It is were the waste in your body comes out eg. urine, snot and sweat.
Epithelial tissue. This type of tissue is made up of cells that are closely packed and arranged in one or more layers. Epithelial tissues cover internal and external body surfaces. They have a high regenerative capacity.and has many functions including, protection, absorption, secretion, sensation and excretion.
