The two groups of squirrels are not the same species.

The term species implies towards the organisms, which possess the tendency to breed with each other. In the given case, the two groups of squirrels got separated due to geographical isolation, as the result both the groups were inhibited to have mated with each other. As a result, the two different species of squirrels got originated due to the phenomenon.

List several processes in cell metabolism where diffusion is important
fiasKO [112]
<span>One process wherein diffusion is important is the concentration of salt within a cell. When the salt levels are too high within the cell, salt molecules are moving via diffusion to a region of lower concentration. Another process is the movement of carbon dioxide in plant cells, where CO2 moves from regions of high concentration to regions of low concentration.</span>

True or False. Animals vary tremendously in structure. Nevertheless, they can be categorized into a few basic body plans based o
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Animals can be categorized into 3 based on body symmetry

  • <em>Those without any body symmetry (asymmetrical)</em>
  • <em>Those with bilateral body symmetry (bilateria)</em>
  • <em>Those with radial body symmetry (Radiata)</em>

Animals can be categorized into 2 based on number of embryonic germ layer;

  • <em>Those with two layers - endoderm and ectoderm (diplobastic)</em>
  • <em>Those with three layers - mesoderm in addition to ectoderm and endoderm (triploblastic)</em>

Animals can be categorized based on presence/absence of body cavity or coelom;

  • <em>No body cavity - acoelomates</em>
  • <em>False body cavity - pseudocoelomates</em>
  • <em>True body cavity - coelomates</em>

Animals can be categorized into 2 based on characteristics of embryonic development;

  • <em>Deuterostomes</em>
  • <em>Protosomes</em>

Explain Gynecomastia in males.
PolarNik [594]

Gynecomastia is an increase in the size of the mammary gland in men. The condition can occur in one or both breasts. It starts as a small mass under the nipple, which can be sensitive. One breast can be bigger than the other. Its cause is an imbalance between the stimulatory effects of estrogen (female sex hormones) and the inhibitory effects of androgens (male sex hormones) in the breast tissue, when the first ones increase, or the second ones descend.

Gynecomastia is a problem relatively common in the population, and there are three prevalence peaks throughout life:

Newborns: Between 60 and 90% of newborns have gynecomastia, produced by the passage of maternal estrogens through the placenta. It is a transient gynecomastia that disappears in about 2-3 weeks.

Puberty: Gynecomastia in puberty affects mainly young people aged between 10 and 14 years, and is due to the transient and physiological increase in estrogen that occurs at this age.

Elderly: Is due to an increase in fatty tissue with a greater peripheral aromatization ( a process that occurs in adipose tissue and that involves the conversion of androgens into estrogens), a decrease in the production of testosterone by the testes and the use of drugs.

in mammals, an increase in the temperature of the preoptic area of the hypothalamus activates physiological mechanisms for heat
serious [3.7K]

True. In mammals, an increase in the temperature of the preoptic area of the hypothalamus activates physiological mechanisms for heat dissipation including vasodilation.

<h3>What is vasodilation?</h3>

Vasodilation, as it is known in medicine, occurs when blood vessels in your body open up, enabling more blood to flow through them and resulting in a reduction in blood pressure. Without your knowledge, your body goes through a routine procedure like this. It can also be brought on by the foods and beverages you consume as well as the drugs you take. Vasodilation may also be a sign of a particular illness.

The two of the many functions that your blood serves in the body:

  • Carrying oxygen and nutrients
  • Aiding in temperature regulation in your body.

Your body's blood arteries are more complex than simple tubes that remain constant in size. Your blood arteries include muscle as well, and that muscle regulates how wide or narrow they are at any particular time. Vasodilation occurs when blood vessels enlarge. Vasoconstriction is the opposite process, which occurs when blood vessels narrow and contract.

Why is it not useful to view science as a set of facts ?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
If science is to be defined at, science is a systematized body of knowledge. Science is where the organized set of facts were obtained and is used as a tool, model or paradigm to gather such evidential data. Science is not a fact but an existential body in which comprises the study of the anatomy and physiology of a certain object by the means of observation, hypothesis, experimentation, interpretation and conclusion of the gathered facts. Or what others would describe the scientific process.
