Answer:

The mentioned characteristics of the Cardiovascular system in this exercise are:

- One nucleus

- Striated

- Involuntary

- Intercalated Disks

Explanation:

All right, let's explain why all those characteristics are from the cardiovascular system.

First of all, the majority of the cardiovascular cells are build by only 1 nucleus. therefore, TThe cardiovascular system alls into the first one nuclei characteristic. Second, the cardiovascular system is managed involuntarily because we don't decide how to pump the blood and distribute it in the body, also it is controlled by the medulla oblongata in the brainstem right under the hypothalamus. These parts of the brain control the involuntary functions of our body. The cardiovascular tissue is also striated because its organization is defined by the I, and A bands which are layers of cell constituted by different proteins which provide them different colors. granting it the striated appearance. Finally, it also looks like an intercalated disk because the cells that build the cardiovascular tissue are inside collagen fibers and other substances so it can develop it's contraction movements.

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

<u>cardic muscles:</u> are present only in the heart .single cell is not very strong by itself, millions of cardiac muscle cells working together are easily able to pump all of the blood in the body through the heart in less than a minute. Cardiac muscle cells have a branched shape so that each cell is in contact with three of four other cardiac muscle cells.

<u>characteristics  of cardic muscles: </u> one nucleus ,striated, involuntary, branched and joined to one another by intercalated discs that contain  gap junctions for depolarization between cells and  hold the fibers together when the heart contracts.

How does the theory of endosymbiosis differ from the autogenous and horizontal gene transfer theories in explaining the evolutio
Llana [10]
<h3><u>Answer and Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u>Endosymbiotic theory</u> explains the origin of chloroplasts and mitochondria and their double membrane.  Mitochondria of eukaryotes evolved from aerobic bacteria living within their host cell and the chloroplasts of eukaryotes evolved from endosymbiotic cyanobacteria.
  • On the other hand according to the <u>autogenous hypothesis, </u>mitochondria and chloroplasts have evolved within the protoeukaryote cell by compartmentalizing plasmids or vesicles of DNA within a pinched off invagination of the cell membrane.
  • <u>Endosymbiont theory </u>is the theory that suggests that simple prokaryotic cells were engulfed by larger prokaryotes 1.5 billion years ago.
  • <u>Autogenous theory</u> is a theory that was proposed as an alternative to endosymbiont theory. proposes that eukaryotic organelles formed by infolding of the plasma membrane.
  • <u>Horizontal gene transfer theory</u> is an alternative to endosymbiont and autogenous theories for the origin of complex organelles in eukaryotes.

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:TRUE

Explanation: Increased muscular Strength develops from increased Physical and aerobic exercise and activities,it has been established that physical activities like running, swimming,jogging, skating etc all have impact in Building one musculoskeletal Strength and it also helps to improve aerobic respiration which in turn will help to burn all excess FATS and CHOLESTEROL levels which has been attributed to major chronic health conditions,CANCER,HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE, HYPERTENSION etc.
