The physical characteristics of the organisms matched to their purpose;

Cilia- thin, hairlike structures used for locomotion

Flagella- long, tail-like structure used for locomotion

Pseudopods- feetlike projections to capture a potential prey

Pilli- used to hold onto rocks

Cilia are thin hair-like protuberances found on the outer part of eukaryotic cells. Cilia are mainly used for locomotion, either of substances on the cell surface or of the cell itself. Protozoans that have cilia are called ciliates and they use the cilia for both locomotion and feeding.

Flagella are long tail like structure used by cells and microorganisms for locomotion. Flagella are found in eukaryotes, bacteria and archae. Cilia and flagella are similar in structure and function but flagella are usually singular and longer than cilia.

The gastric phase of gastric secretion is triggered by the:
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The entry of food into the stomach.

Explanation:

Gastric secretion is triggered by the act of eating which is called as reflex phase and the entry of food into the stomach called a gastric phase. The entry of the food particles into the small intestine also helps to control the secretion of gastric called an intestinal phase.

The secreted fluid in the small intestine contains some ions, acids, etc such as pepsinogen, intrinsic factor, bicarbonate, hydrochloric acid, and mucus. The reflex phase or cephalic phase helps to stimulate parasympathetic neurons that release acetylcholine chemical, then it produces the higher secretion of gastric juice.

Which gas does not occur naturally in the atmosphere in any amount but was solely created by human activity? Support your answer
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Carbon monoxide.

Explanation:

Carbon monoxide is a gas that consists of an oxygen and a carbon to be able to fulfill the complete molecule, it is a potentially dangerous gas for life on this earth.

On the other hand, what differentiates it from carbon dioxide is that it has two oxygens that are coupled with a carbon to fulfill the complete molecule.

Both gases are pollutants, and produced by man, it is considered that these in high partial pressures in the atmosphere generate a mortal potential for humans since they have more affinity with the hemoglobin protein that is the human gas transporter par excellence, the which oxygenates the tissues.

If the oxygen drops in partial pressure and these toxic gases increase, the hemoglobin having a higher affinity will bind to them and toxify the human body, preventing oxygenation.
