C. He could suffocate from lack of oxygen in his blood.

Given the statement that hemoglobin (used to transport oxygen throughout our body) is more attracted to carbon monoxide, it is highly likely that most, if not all, the hemoglobin in a human body will be bound to carbon monoxide instead of oxygen when a person inhales too much carbon monoxide. This results in a lack of hemoglobin carrying oxygen to the cells of the body. Oxygen deficiency occurs.

Answer:

Gene flow

Explanation:

Evolution is the changes seen in the growth, development, features of a certain group of species during the cause of time. Evolution causes changes in the gene frequency of species from one generation to the next generation.

There are 5 important mechanisms of evolution and they are: Gene flow, mutation, genetic drift, natural selection and non random mating.

Gene flow as a mechanism of evolution is the exchange or transfer of genes between a group of species as they move from one place to another. Gene flow can either increase the rate of evolution or decrease it.

Which hypothalamic hormone contributes to the regulation of the male reproductive system? a. luteinizing hormone b. gonadotropin
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b. gonadotropin-releasing hormone.

Explanation:

The GnRH or the gonadotropin-releasing hormone is a releasing hormone that releases from the neurons of the hypothalamus. This releasing hormone is responsible for the secretion of the luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone.

GnRH regulates both gonadotropin hormones, in which, LH (luteinizing hormone) responsible for the regulation of the male reproductive system and FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone) responsible for the female reproductive system and sperm production in testes in males.

Thus, the correct answer is option B. gonadotropin-releasing hormone.

Which type of movement is characteristic of the articulation between the tibia and fibula with the talus?
jonny [76]

Solution:

The function and mobility of each joint depends on its anatomical design. Joints that permit no movement or slight movement are common in the axial skeleton where basic structural support and protection  is expected. Joints that are freely moveable are common in the appendicular skeleton where mobility is required. Is known as articulation.

The tibial collateral ligament reinforces the medial side of the knee joint and the fibular collateral ligament reinforces the lateral side of the knee joint. Two popliteal ligaments reinforce the posterior side of the knee joint.
