Answer:

The correct answer would be Atria push blood into the ventricles and Ventricles push blood out of the heart.

In humans, four chambered heart is present with two atria and two ventricles.

Deoxygenated blood from all over the body is passed into the right atrium through vena cava (superior and inferior).

Simultaneously, oxygenated blood from the lungs is passed into the left atrium of the heart with the help of pulmonary vein.

Both the atria contract at the same time to drain their blood into respective ventricles.

The ventricles undergo relaxation while receiving blood.

The valves present between the atria and ventricles (tricuspid and bicuspid valve) ensures that the blood flows in one way direction only. They shut down as the ventricles contract and produce the sound "lub".

The ventricles contract simultaneously to pump blood out of the heart. The right ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood into pulmonary artery which takes the blood to the lungs for oxygenation.

The left ventricle passes the oxygenated blood through aorta to all the parts of the body.

The pulmonary and aortic valves prevent the back flow of blood and shut at the same time which creates second sound called as "dub".

Here two options are correct !

first artia push blood into the ventricles

and second is ventricles push blood out of heart !

The arbitrary and capricious test is very well defined. a. true b. false

Furkat [3]

False.
The definition of Arbitrary and Capricious is:
A clear error of judgment; an action not based upon consideration of relevant factors and so is arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion or otherwise not in accordance with law or if it was taken without observance of procedure required by law. 5 USC. 706(2)(A) (1988).

What is arbitrary to one can be perfectly sane to another one hence the statement is false.

What causes there to be a H+ ion concentration gradient to build up inside the thylakoid space? Check all that apply. a. The ele

siniylev [52]

Answer:

a. The electrons provide energy for the H+ pump to transport more H+ ions into the thylakoid space.

d. The photolysis of water releases H+ ions into the thylakoid space.

Explanation:

This question describes the first stage of photosynthesis, which is LIGHT-DEPENDENT REACTION. The light dependent reactions involve creating ATP (energy carrier) and NADPH (electron carrier) needed for the Calvin cycle (light independent stage) to occur.

The ATP is formed by pumping hydrogen ions (H+) into the thylakoid space/lumen, hence, creating a electrochemical gradient needed for ATP synthase to synthesize ATP. The buildup of H+ ions is caused by:

- The electrons that arise when light photons hit a chlorophyll molecule is used to provide energy for the H+ pump to transport more H+ ions into the thylakoid space.

- The photolysis of water results in the production of electrons (e-) and hydrogen ions (H+). These hydrogen ions are released into the thylakoid space.

Ronch [10]

Answer: A fluid phospholipid bilayer with embedded proteins.

Explanation: Biological membranes are composed of phospholipids that interact with each other to form a bilayer in which proteins are embedded. Phospholipids have the fatty acyl chains (hydrophobic tails) which face each other to form the interior of the bilayer, while their polar head groups face the outward environment interacting with water molecules. The fluid mosaic model for structure of biological membranes is due to the interactions between the hydrophobic tails of the lipids. The fatty acyl chains of the phospholipids (nonpolar/ hydrophobic tails) in the interior of the membrane form a fluid hydrophobic region while the integral proteins float in the sea of these lipids. The proteins and lipids move freely and laterally in the plane of the bilayer, but movement there is restriction in the movement from one face of the bilayer to the other. The proteins are embedded at regular intervals and are held by hydrophobic interactions between the membrane lipids and the hydrophobic regions of the proteins.

The membrane mosaic is fluid because most of the interactions among its components are noncovalent, thereby leaving the lipid and protein molecules free to move laterally in the plane of the membrane.

What Contains Both Communities and Ecosystems

romanna [79]

The term that contains both communities and ecosystems is known as a biome. A biome is a huge area on Earth, similar to a very large ecosystem, but even larger than it, that includes plants and animals in that area, but also geology, climate, relief, etc. The correct answer is BIOME.
