Answer:

C. tarsal glands: produce tears

Explanation:

The tarsal plate refers to a thick fold of connective tissue that serves as a support to the eyelids. A row of tarsal glands is embedded in each tarsal plate. Tarsal glands are elongated modified sebaceous glands. Also known as meibomian glands, they secrete a fluid that helps keep the eyelids from adhering to each other. These glands do not produce tears. Tears are produced by lacrimal glands present in the lacrimal apparatus.

What would most likely happen to a native predator species if a nonnative predator species were introduced to an area?
Fantom [35]

Answer:

B. The native species population would decrease because the nonnative species would be competing for food sources.

Explanation:

This question is describing the effect of invasive species. Invasive species are foreign species i.e. not native to a habitat or area, introduced into the area with the ability to outcompete and negatively affect the native species of that area.

Invasive species compete with the native species for food, space, mate etc., and tend to outgrow them. Hence, if a nonnative predator (invasive) species were introduced to an area, the native predator species in that area would decrease because the nonnative species would be competing for food sources.

Why do you think cells have different functions?
coldgirl [10]

Cells of various types have different functions because cell structure and function are closely related. It is apparent that a cell that is very thin is not well suited for a protective function.

suppopse you were going to deisgn a system for the rapid diffusion of oxygen across a phosphlipid bilayer. according to fick's l
Llana [10]

Answer:

According to Fick's law, the rate of diffusion of any substance across any barrier is<u> directly proportional to the surface area of the membrane or any layer exposed. and the concentration of the diffusing substance available, but the rate is inversely proportional to the diffusion distance available.</u>

<u />

Thus the rate at which oxygen will move across the phospholipid  bilayer will depend on the concentration or amount  per mole  of the oxygen molecule hitting the phopholipid at  a prticular time and how permeable the phospholipd layer is to oxygen molecules, but the rate of its  movement across will be reduced as the distance between the phosphoslipid bilayer and the diffusing molecules  increases.

Therefore, the concentration of oxygen should be maximised, the surface area of the phospholipid  bilayer should also be maximized. the distances between the phopholipid and the  vessel containing the diffusing oxygen molecules should be drastically reduced. With this Fick's law  has been applied , and therefore maximum oxygen molecules can diffuse across.

The free energy for ATP hydrolysis in vivo is actually &gt; the standard free energy change of -30 kJ mol-1 because ________. a.
Julli [10]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option C.

Explanation:

ATP is the energy molecule which on hydrolysis provide energy to the cells for metabolic functions.

In vitro, the standard free energy of the ATP is -30.5 kJ/mol but its value varies in the cell as the concentration of ATP and its products like ADP, AMP and Pi are unequal in a cell. The Mg2+ in the cytosol has the ability to bind ATP and ADP, as well as the time of ATP hydrolysis, differs from cell to cell, thus influencing the concentration of ATP and its products.

Thus, option C is the correct answer.
