In a a person is assigned a status at birth and remains at that level throughout life.

Biology
1 answer:
alex41 [277]3 years ago

Answer:

When a person is assigned a status at birth and must remain in it throughout his or her life, it is a caste system.

Explanation:

A caste system is applied in some societies and consists of the assignment of an individual to a social stratum by birthright, being forced to remain in that status and even relate to people of the same social category and allow endogamy.

It is a system that exists in ancient societies, an example being the Hindu caste system or South African apartheid. Other cultures that made use of the caste system were the Arab and Hebrew.

Unlike the caste system, the class system consists of inclusion in a specific social class, without the intervention of the birthright.

What is the charecteristics of an alveolus​
Alla [95]
  • Each alveolus is cup-shaped with very thin walls.
  • It’s surrounded by networks of blood vessels called capillaries that also have thin walls.
  • The oxygen you breathe in diffuses through the alveoli and the capillaries into the blood.
  • The carbon dioxide you breathe out is diffused from the capillaries to the alveoli, up the bronchial tree and out your mouth.
  • The alveoli are just one cell in thickness, which allows the gas exchange of respiration to take place rapidly.

If a drug that was an inhibitor of PP1 activity was ingested by a person
Reptile [31]

The correct answer is: Glycogen phosphorylase would remain phosphorylated and retain some activity.

Glycogen phosphorylase is directly involved in the regulation of glucose levels since it is a glucose sensor in liver cells: when glucose levels are low, phosphorylase is active and it has PP1 bound to it (phosphatase activity of PP1 is prevented). Therefore, there phosphorylase a will accelerate glycogen breakdown.

Which of the following statements about the equilibrium theory of island biogeography is FALSE?
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

b) At equilibrium, the species composition of an island will not change.

Explanation:

The Theory of Island Biogeography written by Robert H. MacArthur and Edward O. Wilson (1967) is an essential book for any professional working in biogeography, biodiversity, ecology, conservation and related fields. The theory of island biogeography states that species diversity on islands tends to approach a dynamic equilibrium due to the balance between colonization (inmigration), speciation and extinction. At equilibrium, the species composition of an island will change, precisely at the time that immigration and extinction processes maintain the number of species in a dynamic equilibrium, thereby maintaining species diversity. In this case, the colonization rate represents a function of distance to the continent (or other islands), the extinction rate is a function of the size of the island and habitat heterogeneity, and speciation is a function of time. This book also contains a series of useful considerations: 1-the number of species in an area is directly associated with the size of the area; 2-large islands support more diverse communities than small islands; 3-the viability of populations on island systems can be considered as a function of the island size and its proximity to the mainland (or other islands); and 4- when a habitat is lost the remaining fragmented area may lose some of its important species.
