Answer:
1. Ends of the respiratory branches are called alveoli.
2. C. To control blood flow to different areas of the body depending on activities
Explanation:
1. The trachea divides into left and right primary bronchi which in turn divide multiple times upon entering the lungs and make the bronchial tree.
The final branches of the bronchial tree are the terminal bronchioles that lead to alveoli. The alveoli are the balloon-shaped structures and serve as the site of gas exchange between the blood and inhaled air.
2. The opening and closing of sphincters of capillary beds regulate the direction of blood flow. The opening of sphincters allows the blood to flow into associated branches of capillary beds while closed sphincters direct the blood from arterioles to venules via thoroughfare channel.
This local change in blood flow is responsible for the autoregulation of blood flow to different tissues to match their respective metabolic demands. For example, during physical activity, more blood is directed to skeletal and cardiac muscles.
Nerve cells are functionally classified as sensory neurons, motor neurons, or interneurons. Sensory neurons (afferent neurons) are unipolar, bipolar, or multipolar shaped cells that conduct action potentials toward or into the central nervous system.
Answer:
the end results of mitosis and meiosis are completely different: Mitosis: One diploid cell → two diploid cells. Goal is cell division. Meiosis: One diploid cell → four haploid cells.
Explanation:
All microscopes have lenses. Some types of lenses are eyepiece lenses, objective lenses, and condenser lenses.
The west Nile Virus is pathogen which caused the West Nile fever and encephalitis. The pathogen was introduced in 1999 in the Western Hemisphere and infected a major population in new york. It then expanded to 12 states and district of columbia. The major carrier of the pathogen was Avian and Mosquitoes species. In between 1999 to 2008, nearly 2500000 people were infected and nearly 1500 people died. Also there were thousands of cases of encephalitis or meningitis.
