How do lymphatic capillaries differ from blood capillaries?

Biology
1 answer:

5 0

Answer:

b.Lymphatic capillaries are dead-end tubes.  

d.Lymphatic capillaries are highly permeable.

Explanation:

Lymphatic capillaries transport lymph that flows with little pressure, these capillaries are made of endothelium, <em>are blind-ended (closed at one end) and are more permeable than the blood ones because they serve to drain extracellular fluids.</em>

Blood capillaries, on the other hand, transport blood, that contrary to lymph, flows with more pressure, their walls are also made of endothelium but they are less permeable and conform a circuit, meaning they have no dead ends.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Answer: The aluminum atom  loses   electrons to form an ion.

                The ion that is formed is  <u>positive</u>

<u></u>

<u>Second Part of the question:</u>  What is the name of the aluminum ion?

<u> </u>Answer : <u>Al+3</u>

Explanation: <em>An aluminum ion has a charge of +3. It is not a neutral atom. It has a + charge, the electrons must have been taken away (electrons have a negative charge). Since the atomic number is 13, the number of protons is thirteen. In a neutral atom, there would be thirteen electrons. You take away 3. There is 10 electrons in Aluminum Ion. </em>

Hairlessness in American rat terriers is recessive to the presence of hair. Suppose that you have a rat terrier with hair. Expla
Reil [10]

Answer:

By performing a test cross i.e. a cross with a recessive trait

Explanation:

According to the question, hairlessness is a recessive trait, meaning that it will only be expressed in a homozygous condition i.e. when there are two recessive alleles in the genotype. Presence of hair is dominant, meaning that it will mask the phenotypic expression of hairlessness allele in a heterozygous state. Hence, a dominant phenotype can either be homozygous (same dominant allele) or heterozygous (combination of dominant and recessive alleles).

In order to determine which of these genotypes the dominant phenotype possess, we perform a test cross. A test cross is a cross performed to determine the genotype of the dominant organism by crossing it with a homozygous recessive genotype.

Ideally, the offsprings resulting from the cross will all be phenotypically dominant if the organism in question is homozygous dominant but if the organism is heterozygous dominant, the offsprings will occur in an equal ratio of dominant to recessive phenotypes.

So in this case, all of offsprings of this cross between the rat terriers will possess hair if the dominant rat terrier dog is homozygous, but if the dominant rat terrier dog is heterozygous, an hairless offspring will be produced.

Cnidocytes are found in _____.
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

phylum Cnidaria

Explanation:

Cnidocytes represent a group of living organisms, whose members are Jellyfish, Sea Anemone, Hydra, Portuguese Caravel. Cnidocytes are found in the Cnidaria phylum.

Cnidaria, known in the past as coelenterates, are relatively simple animals with no circulatory and respiratory system, all of which are done through the diffusion process. They have diffuse nervous system and metabolism products are eliminated by mouth. The locomotion occurs through jets of water in the jellyfish and some polyps move slowly dragging or somersaulting.
