Biology

Answer:

Once the tongue makes contact with a prey, the prey gets attached to the sticky tongue like glue. The chameleon then withdraws its tongue, with the prey firmly attached into its mouth. The chameleon's sticky tongue is capable of gripping anything – sometimes even lassoing lizards nearly the same size as itself.

The tongue latches itself on to its victims with suction. The muscles beneath the tip of a chameleon’s tongue, forms a flat pad at rest, but turns into a conical depression when in flight acting like a suction cup.

Please place the following vessels in the correct order to represent the arterial circulation leading up to the glomerulus.

Ymorist [56]

The following vessels are connected as below:

aorta ->renal arteries ->segmental arteries ->interlobular arteries ->arcuate arteries ->cortical radiata ->afferent arteries ->glomerulus.

1) aorta : arises from heart which carry blood from heart to the rest of the body

2) renal artery :it arises from the aorta which carry blood to kidney .it carry unfiltered blood .

3)segmental arteries : it arises from renal artery .it has 5 branches or segments.

4)interlobular arteries : it arises from segmental arteries. the interlobular arteries pass directly outward between the medullary rays to reach the fibrous tunic ,where they end in the capillary network of this part.

5)Arcuate arteries: it arises from interlobular arteries .it is also known as arciform arteries, are vessels of the renal circulation. they are located at the border of the renal cortex and renal medulla.

6) cortical radiata: it arises from arcuate arteries.

7) afferent arteries: it arises from interlobular arteries and also connects to glomerulus. they are a group of blood vessels that supply the nephrons in many excretory systems .they play a important role in regulation of blood vessels.

8) glomerulus : it connects from afferent arteries.it is the filtering unit of kidney ,is a specialised bundle of capillaries that are uniquely situated between two resistance vessels.

Why can't prokaryotic species be defined as a group of similar organisms that could sexually reproduce together?

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

The prokaryote divides by asexual mode of reproduction.

Explanation:

The concept of species which defines a species as a group of individuals of a population which can interbred and produce a fertile progeny is applicable to the organism which can reproduce sexually.

Since the bacteria divide through asexual means and not through sexual ways therefore the concept of defining a species becomes complicated and does not apply.However the concept of species in prokaryotes is still a topic of research.

Thus, the biological concept of species is not applicable to prokaryotes.
