I believe the correct answer is D) higher elevation. The higher elevation, the lower temperature - that is why a mountain is covered with snow.
Answer:
Anaerobic respiration or fermentation
Explanation:
The metabolic pathway shown in the question is the summary of anaerobic respiration (fermentation) during which pyruvate is converted to acetaldehyde, followed by the formation of alcohol (ethanol), along with the release of NADH and NAD molecules. This mechanism occurs in the absence of oxygen and is thus used by organisms to generate energy (ATP) molecules.
Answer:
The correct answer will be Option-C.
Explanation:
The pancreas is an organ which plays an important role in the digestion of the food. Pancreatic juice is secreted by the pancreas which contains digestive enzymes as well as the sodium bicarbonate (base).
The sodium bicarbonate is required for the digestion of the food as after the acidic digestion of the food in the stomach, the food chyme enters small intestine. The inner lumpen is not structured to handle the acidic chyme so sodium bicarbonate neutralizes the acid chyme that entered the lumen of the small intestine.
Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
Answer:
The increase in the human population and waste it produces, deforestation , peat bog destruction and global warming are all reducing biodiversity
Explanation:
Answer:
There are many types of evidence which support the theory of evolution such as comparative anatomy, fossil records, phylogenetic relationship, embryology et cetera
Comparative anatomy includes homologous organs and analogous organs. They support divergent and convergent evolution respectively.
For example, the homologous structure of limb of humans, birds, bat, horse, whale et cetera show that they are made up of the same set of bones which are humerus, radius, ulna, carpals, metacarpals, and phalanges.
It shows divergent evolution and supports that these organisms have evolved from a common ancestor.
Embryological evidence: When early stages of embryological development of different organisms are compared, it is found that these stages are similar at different levels of development.
For example:
- The appearance of pharyngeal-arch (gill-like structures) in vertebrates during embryo development.
- Salamanders and terrestrial frogs pass through larval stages within an egg. They possess the features similar to aquatic larvae, however, when they hatched out the eggs being ready for life on land.
