Coin flipping simulates the events of mitosis and the production of sperm or eggs

Biology

Coin flipping simulates the events of mitosis and the production of sperm. This is because females carry XX chromosomes so all eggs will have a singular X chromosome. It is the sperm that determines the sex of the foetus: males have XY chromosomes and therefore sperm will carry either X or Y chromosomes (a 50/50 chance, just like flipping a coin)

Which of the following does not characterize the lungs of birds?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

C) They are compressed during inhalation.

Explanation:

Birds breathe through rigid lungs that are located in the animal's thoracic region. The trachea of birds divides into bronchi that branch inside the lungs into very thin tubes called parabronchials or parabroncholes, which are irrigated by blood capillaries that allow gas exchange.

In birds there are no pulmonary alveoli (as in mammals), but air capillaries that depart from the parabroncholes. Oxygen gas passes from these capillaries to the blood capillaries, thus causing gas exchange.

In the lower portion of the bird's trachea, before branching the bronchi, we can find the syringe, a bag-like structure that has vocal cords responsible for the birds' scream and song. Most of the time, the sound emitted by birds serves to attract the mate, mark territory and prevent birds of the same species against some predator or other danger.
