Answer:

d. mucosa, submucosa, muscularis, serosa

Explanation:

The layers of the digestive tract starting from the lumen are mucosa, submucosa, muscularis and serosa.

  • The first layer is mucosa which is made of epithelium cells and helps in absorption of nutrients from digested food. It has numerous villi structure which increase the surface area for absorption.
  • Second layer submucosa supports mucosa and is supplied with large blood vessels, nerves and lymphatics. Absorbed nutrients enter the blood vessels which are present in submucosa.
  • The third layer muscularis functions to create peristaltic movements in GI tract. Muscles in this layer make the food move and mix with digestive juices.
  • Final layer serosa works to reduce friction between digestive tract muscles. It has a thin cell layer which secretes serous fluid that acts as a lubricant.

Which subdivision of anatomy involves the study of organs that function together?
zloy xaker [14]
It is the macroscopic anatomy with a systemic approach.
There are two levels of the human body: macroscopic (gross anatomy) and microscopic level. For each of the two levels, there is a separate subdivision of anatomy.

<span>2. Systemic approach-the body is divided into organ systems like skeletal system, or nervous system and structures belonging to one system are studied together.</span>

Following an oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, a population of fish evolves increased intolerance to oil over a period of several
frosja888 [35]

A

This should be considered a case of natural selection because humans were not selecting for particular desirable traits.

Explanation:

The individuals in the population who held even the slightest advantage in the tolerance of the oil spill had higher chances of surviving and passing their genes to the next generation. Fishes with low tolerance perished even before getting to maturity.  Therefore with each generation, traits for oil tolerance in the population increased by natural selection enabling the population to evolve towards  increased intolerance to oil over a period of several generations.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The temperature and rainfall change at different times of the year.

Explanation:

A temperate climate region is a territory in which the climate cannot be classified as completely hot or cold, nor rainy or dry, but these characteristics are variable according to the season of the year in which it is found. Thus, these climates do not have extreme heat or cold temperatures, but rather moderate climatic conditions. An example of a region with a temperate climate is the Mediterranean region, the State of Georgia in the USA or Uruguay.
