Answer:

Option C, Kidneys

Explanation:

Kidney is very essential as it regulates the fluid content in our body; it also filters out essential nutrients from the blood; filters waste material from food and also regulate blood pressure. In the model, it is depicted that solid material is filtered out form the liquid. This process conjugates with the filtering process of kidneys.  

Heart is responsible for pumping blood, glands secrete hormones and stomach digest food.  

Option C is correct

C. The kidneys

This is because their one of their functions is to extract other materials from liquid which is what is happening as Alicia strains the liquid (water) from the solids (sand and pebbles).

Serhud [2]

Answer:

No, glycolysis can not be continued without fermentation in the absence of oxygen.

Explanation:

In the absence of oxygen, cells perform fermentation to oxidize NADH into NAD+. NAD+ is required during the conversion of glyceraldehyde 3 phosphate into 1,3 bisphosphoglycerate. Fermentation reduces pyruvate and oxidizes NADH so that the NAD+ supply is continued to ensure continuity of glycolysis.

If fermentation does not occur under anaerobic conditions, cells will accumulate pyruvate and NADH. Glycolysis could not be continued in the absence of NAD+.
