Answer:

It is correct, the choice that you place in here.

According to the data I found on research, on this type of mosquito, the Culex, or Culicine, females do present a blunt abdomen tip, which is different from the Aedes and other types of mosquito, palpi that are much shorter, and less bushy than in males either of their own type, or another type, and antennae with shorter, fewer hairs in them. The antennae and palps are shorter than the proboscis, as well. Knowing these factors help scientists to recognize the female mosquitoes of the Culex subfamily, from other females and from males of the same family, as well.

So the answer choice A: Blunt abdomen tip; antennae and palps shorter than proboscis, is correct.

ancestors of giraffes with shorter necks could not reach branches high up in trees for food. this led to selection for longer-ne
hichkok12 [17]

With shorter necks, giraffe ancestors could not reach food-containing branches on tall trees. This resulted in the directional selection of giraffes with longer necks.

 

<h3>Why is choosing a direction necessary? </h3>

It nearly appears obvious that the giraffe's long neck developed as a result of a lack of food in the lower branches of trees. The giraffe has a significant advantage because it is taller than any other mammal and can feed where few others can. 

When compared to modern giraffes, the giraffe's ancient predecessors had a shorter neck. The plants that were lying at a higher level were inaccessible to them. Giraffe phenotypes have changed in various ways, and now have long necks to reach vegetation that is higher up. The extreme form is chosen above other features in directional selection. It was decided to choose the long-necked giraffe over the short-necked.

Which of these is the most important cause of adult onset epilepsy?
aev [14]

Answer:

Cysticercosis is the infection caused by the cystic form of the pig's tapeworm, Taenia solium, and neurocysticercosis is when the central nervous system (CNS) is affected. It is usually possible through direct ingestion of helminth eggs, but it can also occur in a usual infestation (teniasis). It is an endemic condition in several countries in South America, Africa and Asia, accounting for about 29% of the causes of secondary epilepsy in these locations. It can also cause headache, hydrocephalus, meningitis, and even central nervous system infarction.

Which molecule listed is most likely to cause osmosis in the body? protein glucose oxygen sodium chloride?
mario62 [17]

The answer is protein

Osmosis happens when the osmotic pressure of two container separated by semipermeable membrane is different. The osmotic pressure could be exert by polar solute because they will attract water molecule. Protein, glucose, and sodium chloride is the common molecule that could cause osmosis. But protein is the main substance that keep the osmotic pressure of the blood in the body.
