During an algal bloom in a local lake, the population of algae increases at a rapid rate and covers the surface of the water. Al

gae have a short lifespan and die very quickly. Microbes (bacteria) begin the decomposition process of these dead aquatic plants. This causes a significant drop in the amount of dissolved oxygen in the water and leads to a “dead zone” where aquatic plants and animals cannot survive. Which of the following best describes what happens as a result?
a. Without oxygen produced from cellular respiration, the plants and animals cannot perform photosynthesis and therefore aren’t able to make enough ATP energy to power their vital metabolic processes needed for survival.
b. Without oxygen produced from photosynthesis, the plants and animals cannot perform cellular respiration and therefore aren’t able to make enough ATP energy to power the vital metabolic processes needed for survival.
c. Plants do not require any oxygen, so they are not harmed in an algae bloom. Only the animal population will be affected by the drop in dissolved oxygen levels.

The protein coat is made of the capsomers which are arranged in the tubular structure forming capsid. The viruses do not contain the metabolic machinery of their own that is the reason that they do not have replication or transcription or translation machinery.

Which of these organs is found in the excretory system?
Paraphin [41]

The urinary system is the main excretory system of the body after the gastrointestinal tract (large intestine) and lungs, In these questions it is necessary to prioritize the urinary tract.

The right answer is D. Bladder

The bladder belongs to the urinary excretory system.

The bladder receives the urine produced by the kidneys via the ureter and has the function of storing it before its elimination during urination through the urethra. The muscles surrounding the bladder help to prevent urine reflux to the ureter.


The right answer is C. Kidneys

The main purpose of the renal excretory system is to eliminate nitrogenous wastes while maintaining homeostasis, all through the formation of urine.

The kidney has a secretory function (filtration of blood in the glomeruli) and excretory from the pyelon (triangle based on the renal hilum) origin of the ureter. We speak of pyelo-ureteral junction. Each kidney contains about 1 million nephron.
