Answer:

Although the drop-down boxes are not shown, I will answer the question as follows:

The etymology of the word pericardium comes from the Greek perikardion; Greek prefix "peri" meaning "around" and the suffix "cardio" meaning "heart"

With this information you can solve the question.

Explanation:

The pericardium is a double layer where the heart is lodged. It has two membranes: the fibrous pericardium and the serous pericardium. The fibrous pericardium is formed by connective tissue. Its function is to protect the heart from the outside, it also allows you to join it with the heart cavity. While the serous pericardium is a bag where the myocardium is lodged. It consists of two layers: the visceral layer, joins the heart muscle, and the parietal layer, attached to the serous pericardium.

Answer:

Women who carry one copy of the mutated gene still have normal color vision because they have another copy, which is not mutated, in the other X chromosome that will be the dominant one. As a result, the women are carriers of the mutated gene but not color blind.

Explanation:

Colorblindness is a sex-linked mutation. A woman has two X chromosomes, while a man has one X chromosome and one Y chromosome. The mutated gene that causes color blindness is on the X chromosome, and it is OPN1LW. So if a woman has one mutated OPN1LW in one of her two X chromosomes, the OPN1LW gene in the other X chromosome will be the dominant one stopping the woman from being colorblind.

In the case of men, as they only have one X chromosome, if there is a mutation on the OPN1LW in the X chromosome, the men will be colorblind because there is no extra copy of the gene, as it is in women.

what is the function of vesicles in the synthesis of proteins and the release or those proteins outside the cell?
Zina [86]

Vesicles transport newly synthesized proteins to the Golgi apparatus. After the Golgi apparatus modifies the proteins, vesicles transport the modified proteins to the cell membrane, where they are released.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Explanation:

The production of ATPs for skeletal muscle contraction  depends on the conditions that the muscles are exposed to.

In presence of abundant oxygen, to the cells  Aerobic respiration-cellular respiration is the most ideal. 32 ATPs and 4 C02 are produced as by-products during the process as by products majorly two C02 from each  of the 2 acetyl Co A that enters the  kerb's cycle.

Likewise direct phosphoryaltion of ADP to ATP gives 32.0 kj/mol of heat liberated but no C02 was produced. This takes place during chemiosmosis. with 28ATPs produced.

In absence of oxygen, anaerobic respiration of skeletal muscles produced ATPs  from  glycolysis, heat and  2C<u>02 as products, but not as by-product</u>.Through alcoholic fermentation pathway.

Therefore ,the correct answer is Aerobic respiration, because it gives out C02 which is a by-product, released out of the body as waste from the lungs,and not use up  in  the body.
