5 0

Answer:

The correct answer is option D

The vertical, central axis of the human body is formed by the axial skeleton. It consists of 80 bones which include a skull, neck, chest, and back. It includes 22 bones of the skull, 6 bones of middle ears, 1 hyoid bone, 26 bones in the vertebral column, and 1 sternum, and 12 pairs or 24 ribs.  

Together with the appendicular skeleton (126 bones), it forms the complete skeleton.

Describe the four structural roles of the skeletal system.<br> The Human SKELETAL SYSTEM
makkiz [27]

Answer:

1. Support

2. Protection

3. Movement

4. Supply & Storage

Explanation:

1. Support :  It provides a framework to support the organs and tissues of the body.  

2. Protection:  It protects our internal organs.  The skull protects the brain; the thorax (sternum, ribs and spine) protects the heart, lungs and other viscera (organs within the thorax).

3. Movement:  It provides a framework for muscles to attach.  Then when the muscles contract they pull on the bones of the skeleton, which act like levers to create movement.

4. Supply & Storage:  The bones that make up the skeleton are a source of both red blood cells (which transport oxygen) and white blood cells (which fight infection), which are formed within the bone marrow.

A cell with more mitochondria than a sperm cell would be a skin cell.<br> O True<br> O False
Klio2033 [76]
FALSE
A sperm cell always has more mitochondria than a skin cell.

Why? The sperm's midpiece contains many mitochondria so that a supply of energy is available for the sperm to perform its function of traveling to and later fertilizing the egg.

Imagine that a geologist finds a sedimentary rock with ripple marks in it.
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

There are many things that can be read from ripple marks in sedimentary rocks. To start, a geologist looks at: the types (sizes, composition, shapes) of grains in the rock, the height of the “waves”, the distance between peaks (highs) and troughs (lows), whether the rock seems to be lying in its original position, and the internal shapes of the ripples (by looking at the edges of broken pieces). They also seek to determine the age of the rock and information about other rocks lying below and above the specific rock.
