Answer:

The answer would be a single celled organism.

Explanation:

Even though transforming genetically any organism is not an easy task, as it requires the whole organism to be changed, it's more practical to do in a unicellular organism. For example, bacteria mutate very easily due to its ability to incorporate new genes by horizontal transfer. Anyway, unicellular organisms have mechanisms to avoid strange genetic material to get into their DNA, that's why scientists have to use such tools as vectors and more.

KatRina [158]

There would be an increase in "Zebra" and "Gazelle" population. This is due to the fact that there wouldn't be as many lions to eat the zebras and gazelles, causing their repopulation to become more frequent.

What are three ways body systems work together to maintain homeostasis?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Each organ system performs specific functions for the body, and each organ system is typically studied independently. However, the organ systems also work together to help the body maintain homeostasis.

For example, the cardiovascular, urinary, and lymphatic systems all help the body control water balance. The cardiovascular and lymphatic systems transport fluids throughout the body and help sense both solute and water levels and regulate pressure. If the water level gets too high, the urinary system produces more dilute urine (urine with a higher water content) to help eliminate the excess water. If the water level gets too low, more concentrated urine is produced so that water is conserved. The digestive system also plays a role with variable water absorption. Water can be lost through the integumentary and respiratory systems, but that loss is not directly involved in maintaining body fluids and is usually associated with other homeostatic mechanisms.

Similarly, the cardiovascular, integumentary, respiratory, and muscular systems work together to help the body maintain a stable internal temperature. If body temperature rises, blood vessels in the skin dilate, allowing more blood to flow near the skin’s surface. This allows heat to dissipate through the skin and into the surrounding air. The skin may also produce sweat if the body gets too hot; when the sweat evaporates, it helps to cool the body. Rapid breathing can also help the body eliminate excess heat. Together, these responses to increased body temperature explain why you sweat, pant, and become red in the face when you exercise hard. (Heavy breathing during exercise is also one way the body gets more oxygen to your muscles, and gets rid of the extra carbon dioxide produced by the muscles.)

5. There is a solid wooden table with a cup of water sitting on it. Which of the following statements
White raven [17]

Answer: Option D.

The atoms and molecules of the liquid water are moving, and the atoms and molecules of the

table are not moving.

Explanation:

The atoms and molecules of the liquid water are moving, and the atoms and molecules of the table are not moving and this is because the atoms and molecules of liquid water are closely packed together and they collide to each other often, thereby moving in random motion in all directions.

The molecules of solid cannot move because they are closely packed together and there is a very strong of attraction which make them to only vibrate and not move and this make solid to have definite shape.
