<h2>a) option is correct </h2>

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the way animals maintain a stable internal  balance in their body and allows animals to function in the changing  external conditions surrounding their body

The high salt concentration in the ocean means that salt will be constantly diffusing into  the body of some animals

Water and salts can move  through the gill membrane to maintain the balance

The kidneys are used to remove excess salts through their urine, which is quite  concentrated

The concentrated urine is also due to the increase in a hormone (ADH) which  causes more water to be reabsorbed by the kidneys

Answer:

Digestion is important for breaking down food into nutrients, which the body uses for energy, growth, and cell repair.

How can two parents who show the dominant trait have offspring who shows the recessive trait? Give an example to support your an
natta225 [31]

Answer:

One example of a recessive inherited trait is a smooth chin, as opposed to a dominant cleft chin. Let (S) represent the dominant allele, and (s) represent the recessive allele. Only (ss) individuals will express a smooth chin. To determine the probability of inheritance of a smooth chin (or any other recessive trait), the genotypes of the parents must be considered. If one parent is heterozygous (Ss) and the other is homozygous recessive (ss), then half of their offspring will have a smooth chin.
