True organic compounds are important to all living things



Carbon is so important because of the unique bonding properties that allow carbon molecules to form long chains called polymers or
compact well organized rings. These two bonding patterns make carbon one of the most versatile elements for molecular construction.

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The correct answer is "strengths: inexpensive, easy to culture, short life cycle, large number of offspring; weaknesses: invertebrate model, some diseases such as immunological cannot be modelled, anatomical features are very different from humans"

Explanation:

The fruit fly <em>Drosophila melanogaster</em> is one of the most used animal model for genetic and biomedical studies. There are many advantages of using Drosophila as model, including that it is very inexpensive to handle, it is easy to culture, it has a short life cycle allowing to observe the changes in phenotype very quickly and its large number of offspring allows to include several repetitions per trait in a study. However, there are some weaknesses of using Drosophila to study human biology. First, obviously the fruit fly is very different from humans, it is an invertebrate and its anatomical features are very different, which makes impossible to model some disorders such as immunological diseases.

The _________________ is composed of and endothelial layer that is continuous with the endocardium of the heart.
hram777 [196]

The t<u>unica media</u> is composed of an endothelial layer that is continuous with the endocardium of the heart.

<h3>What is tunica media?</h3>

Collagen, elastin, and smooth muscle cells make up tunica media. It is located halfway between the tunica externa and the tunica intima. The transverse arrangement of its strands and color make the middle coat (tunica medium) distinct from the inner (tunica intima). It not only supports the vessel but also alters the vessel's width to control blood pressure and flow.

Elastic fibers make up the majority of the tunica media in bigger vessels. The number of elastic fibers reduces as arteries get smaller, whereas the number of smooth muscle fibers grows. The strongest of the three layers is the tunica adventitia, which is the top layer. Elastic and collagenous fibers make up its structure.

<span>B. A secondary consumer that obtains its energy from the consumption of animals.

The red-tailed hawk is a secondary consumer because it feeds itself on primary consumers (those that eat plants, herbivores). Secondary consumers, by definition, </span><span>obtain their energy from eating other animals. Secondary consumers are also usually the ones that stand on the second and above rows of a food chain, being the plants at the bottom and the primary consumers just above the plants.</span>
