Answer: CAPILLARIES

Explanation: Gas exchange is the delivery of oxygen from the lungs to the blood stream, and the elimination of carbon dioxide from the blood stream to the lungs. It occurs in the lungs between the alveoli and a network of tiny blood vessel is called capillaries, which are located in the walls of the alveoli.

True or false: during stressful events, there is decreased blood supply to the skin, which results in "goose bumps."
Sonbull [250]
False.
In a stressful event, there will be a hormone released to the blood called adrenaline. Adrenaline hormone can prepare the body for fight or flight response. One of the effects of this hormone is making the muscle around hair called musculus arrector pili contracted. This contraction of the muscle is what causing the goosebumps. The decreased blood supply has no role in this event.

Answer:

C. Osmosis

Explanation:

Osmosis is the net movement of solvent molecules, usually water, from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration through a partially permeable membrane. Osmosis is a very useful for moving materials in and out of the cell.

Solutions are mixtures of solutes and solvents. The main aim of osmosis is for all the mixture part to be uniform and the solvent equally dispersed to all the part of the solution.

Osmosis is controlled to a large extent by concentration gradient.

Diffusion on the otherhand is the movement of molecules of a substance from one position to another.

Facilitated diffusion and active transport are just mechanisms for transport within a cell or a body.

TEA [102]

In two species of birds, both of which form monogamous pair(one male and one female), In species 1, you find that the eggs in a pair's nest are in fact almost always the offspring of that pair. In species 2, you are surprised to find that many of the eggs in a nest were actually fathered by males of neighboring pairs. Apparently, mating outside of monogamous pairings is widespread in species 2. we would expect that female of species 2 would have sperm from multiple males in their reproductive tracts.

  • This is because the species 2 are having many eggs.
  • These eggs were formed due to fertilization with multiple male bird partners.
  • As a result we can expect eggs with different genotypes.

Thus from the above points we can conclude that two species of birds, both of which form monogamous pairs, female of species 2 would have sperm from multiple males in their reproductive tracts

A force is applied to a particle along its direction of motion. At what speed is the magnitude of force required to produce a gi
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The detailed steps are as shown below

  • Recalling from F = ma
  • a = F/m
  • but magnitude of force F = √ [ 1 - v²/c²]

but acceleration twice as great as the force required to produce the same acceleration;

  • 2m = m / √[ 1 - v²/c²]
  • 2 = 1 / √ [ 1 - v²/c²]
  • square both sides ;

4 = 1 / [ 1 - v²/c²]

1/4 = 1 - v²/c²

v²/c² = 3/4

v/c = √ [3/4]

v = 0.87c

but speed of light c = 3 x 10^8m/s

v = speed of the particle =  0.87( 3 x 10^8m/s)

v = 2.61m/s
