Answer:

The correct answer is E) eutely

Explanation:

Nematodes are organisms with bilateral symmetry, although their organs are coiled, sometimes one of the limbs is lost and many of sedentary life tend to radial symmetry. One of the most striking characteristics of these animals is that their growth is not produced by an increase in the number of cells that compose them, but by an increase in the size of the already existing cells; in fact, in most adult tissues the number of cells is constant, a phenomenon known as eutelia.

Eutelia is the condition of an organism composed of a constant number of cells or syncytial nuclei in all adult individuals of a species, such as nematodes, it means that body growth is not carried out by increasing the number of cells but by the growth of existing cells.

Answer:

E. Eutely

Explanation:

Nematodes is also called Nemathelminthes. They are small slender worms and the head of a nematode is noticeable when compared to other parts of their body. The head is radially symmetrical while the body is bilaterally symmetrical.

Eutely is however the condition of having a body made up of a constant number of cells usually somatic cells like in the case of certain rotifers and lower worms.

With what kinds of bacteria did Griffith inject mice
Aneli [31]
<span>The S strain of bacteria that Griffith used was virulent meaning that when injected into the mouse, the mouse would die from pneumonia The R strain was nonvirulent and did not result in the death of the mouse. When Griffith injected mice with a dead S strain of pneumatic bacteria the mice remained healthy.

I hope this helps!

What level of organization in protein structure are hydrogen bonds within molecules?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Proteins have four levels of organization. Primary structure refers to the linear sequence of the amino acids connected by the peptide bonds. The secondary structure consists of local packing of polypeptide chain into α-helices and β-sheets due to hydrogen bonds between peptide bond – central carbon backbone.

Why is there a high concentration of digestive enzymes found in the small intestine of animals?
Alchen [17]
In animals, an important function of enzymes is to help digest food. Without digestive enzymes, animals would not be able to break down food molecules quickly enough to provide the energy and nutrients they need to survive.
