The right option is; d. Immune system

The immune system is responsible for defending the body against harmful substances.

The immune system is the body’s defense system that protects the body against infectious pathogens and other invaders. The immune system is composed of many biological structures (special cells, proteins, tissues, and organs) and processes that functions together to protect the body. White blood cells are one of the important cells of the immune system that destroy harmful substances or disease-causing organisms that invade body systems.

Answer:

polar microtubules contract, pulling attached chromosomes toward the poles.

Explanation:

Polar microtubules are one of the two types of microtubules that together make the mitotic spindle. The polar microtubules are the ones that extend from each pole to the cell's equator.

At the equatorial region, the polar microtubules from two poles overlap. Also known as non-kinetochore microtubules, the polar microtubules do not get attached to the kinetochores of chromosomes.

The function of the polar microtubules is to assist in chromosome separation during anaphase. The polar microtubules from two poles slide past each other. As they slide, the degree of overlap is reduced and the two opposite poles are pushed apart.

The reduced overlap between the polar microtubules indirectly moves the chromosomes apart as the kinetochore microtubules attach the chromosomes to the opposite poles.

What is happening in a fish tank if amonia is building up
Ratling [72]
There are two things that occur in aquarium ammonia chemisty. 1. the build up of natural ammonia and nitrate in the water. 2. displacement of oxygen in the water caused by the ammonia. This is a very real threat especially when you have a new tank that is still cycling or when the biological filter has been upset or removed.

Look for these main symptoms if you suspect ammonia poisoning in your fish tank:
-loss of appetite
-lethargic fish
-fish gasping for air/breath at the top of the water
-fish laying at the bottom of the tank
-red/purple gills
-red streaking on the fish's body
- fins becoming torn and jagged
-scales on fish falling off or turning black
