Answer:
a. The mtDNA of Anna Anderson bore no resemblance to that of Tsarina Alexandra
c. Tsarina Alexandria's mtDNA was found to be a match to that of the teenage girl.
Explanation:
Mitochondria contain their own DNA known as mtDNA, a strand which is inherited maternally. mtDNA can be used to find maternal ancestry and cannot be passed down by a paternal parent.
This information provides evidence given that the remains of the teenage girl had mtDNA that was identical to the mother, Tsarina Alexandra. It also gave evidence as to why Anna Anderson's claim of being Anastasia were false as the mtDNA of her and Tsarina Alexandra were not similar.
As to why the other answers cannot support the hypothesis, mtDNA is a maternally passed-down strand making the father, Tsar Nicholas Romanov, from having identical mtDNA to his children. On the other hand, if the teenage girl were to not have matching mtDNA to that of Tsuarina's mtDNA, this would disprove the theory of the girl being related to her.
While the teenage boy also had matching mtDNA with the girl, this only proves that the two were related to one another but not necessarily related to Tsarina unless the mtDNA of all three were proven identical.
Answer:
D. Type II alveolar cells
Explanation:
Three layers together make the diffusion membrane or respiratory membrane, which make the total thickness of less than a millimeter i.e. about 0.2 micrometer. The three layers are as follows:
1. The squamous epithelium of alveoli. There are two types of alveolar cells called type I and type II. Type I makes the exchange surface of alveolar membrane and type II cells are responsible for secreting the lung surfactant that reduces the surface tension.
2. Endothelial lining of blood capillaries. These is rich network of blood capillaries near the wall of alveoli.
3. In between the squamous epithelium and the endothelium of blood capillaries fused basement membrane is present.
The correct answer is smell and taste.
The sense of taste and smell are related to one another because they have the same types of receptors. Odor comes from the molecules that is present in the air that stimulates the receptors that is present inside the nose. If one is not able to smell the or its sense of smell is non functional then it cannot have the sense of taste for the same food. This is caused due to the relationship between the smell and taste receptors.
