Which part of an individual villus forms part of the lymphatic system and absorbs fats from the lumen of the small intestine?

I believe the answer is the lacteals. 
Lacteals are structures that are in the middle of each villi; they are lymphatic capillaries that absorbs dietary fats in the villi of the small intestines. Triglycerides are emulsified by bile and hydrolyzed by the enzyme lipase, resulting in a mixture of fatty acids and monoglycerides. The lacteals merge to form larger lymphatic vessels that transport chyle to the thoracic duct where it is emptied into the blood stream at the subclavian vein.

Anna71 [15]

The plant contains vascular tissue and has an alternation of generation. But, it lacks seeds. So, the plant is a Pteridophyte.

  • Vascular tissues are absent in thallophytes and bryophytes. They are found in pteridophytes, gymnosperms and angiosperms.
  • The sporophyte and gametophyte generation is common in bryophytes and pteridophytes.
  • Seeds are produced in plants that come under the group gymnosperms and angiosperms. The presence of seeds is the main characteristic of these groups.
  • Thallophytes, bryophytes and pteridophytes lack seeds. The reproduction in plants that comes under these groups occurs with the help of spores.

Thus, the recently discovered species of the plant should be classified based on the presence of vascular tissues, gametophytes and sporophytes. As pteridophytes contain vascular tissues, sporophytes and gametophytes and lack seeds, the plant is a pteridophyte

It is possible for a baby to be born using ivf and a technique called somatic nuclear transfer. somatic nuclear transfer involve
kifflom [539]

The answer is there (3). This is because a mitochondrion has it own DNA called mitochondrial DNA. Therefore the three genetic materials from different parents (mitochondria from donor mother, DNA from biological mother and DNA from biological father) would be present in the baby. Somatic nucleus transfer is the medical procedure used when the biological mother has mitochondria disorder which she would not wish to pass to her offsprings (which are inherited maternally).

In humans, there are four blood types: A, B, AB and O. Each parent can give their offspring one of three blood type alleles, IA
Delvig [45]

Answer: One parent is IAi and the other parent is IBi

Explanation: As this trait is codominant, the child can inherited IA, IB or i.

Tina has type O, which means she is ii and her sister is AB, so her genotype is IAIB. Now, to have a child with a recessive trait both parents has to carry at least one allele for the recessive, i. Rosa is type AB which means she had to have inherited one allele IA from one of her parents and the other IB from the other parent. Thus, one parent is IAi and the other is IBi.

Why is photosynthesis essential for plant homeostasis? To color leaves green To make food for the plant To remove carbon dioxide
monitta

Homeostasis in plants includes the regulation of carbon dioxide and water levels necessary to perform photosynthesis. Homeostasis in plants also allows plants cells to store the proper amount of water in their cells to help keep them from wilting and dying during times of drought.
