The lion's mane jellyfish can be up to 8 feet wide. In spite of its large size, it has no structures for bulk flow to deliver ox

ygen to its cells. How can it be so large and yet lack a mechanism for bulk flow?

Answer:

The lion's mane jellyfish's skin is so thin that the body receives oxygen through difussion.

Explanation:

The lion's mane jellyfish - giant jellyfish - is the largest species of jellyfish.

This species does not possess a 'usual' respiratory system that would enable to deliver oxygen to its cells. Instead, <u>the lion's mane jellyfish's skin is so thin that the body receives oxygen through difussion. </u>

Thanks to diffusion (<em>oxygen molecules moving from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration</em>), oxygen that is already dissolved in the ocean then is converted into an equal amount of oxygen inside the jellyfish.

Vsevolod [243]
Drip method is one of the mainstays of sustainable agriculture because it : A. reduces soil erosion
Like the name said, Drip irrigation is designed to utilize the least amount of water supply by giving the water to the plant drip by drip. In this method, there is no flow of water that commonly caused the soil erosion (because the water flow cut out the soil little by little)

This diagram shows the menstrual cycle.
LiRa [457]

Answer:

According to the hormone diagram of the menstrual cycle, the woman is not pregnant due to the behavior of progesterone and estrogens, whose levels do not increase, in addition to the absence of human chorionic gonadotropin.

Explanation:

The graph shows the behavior of hormones during a woman's menstrual cycle in the absence of pregnancy.

During a woman's normal cycle, estrogen, luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) tend to increase prior to ovulation, reach their peak values at ovulation, and then decline, as shown in the graph. Progesterone, on the other hand, increases after ovulation and decreases if the woman does not become pregnant.

In the case of a pregnant woman:

  • <u>Estrogens</u> continue to increase after ovulation, produced by the ovaries and placenta.
  • <u>Progesterone</u> also increases its levels, as it is a hormone produced by the ovaries and placenta.
  • <u>Hormone human chorionic gonadotropin</u> (HCG) appears and increases during pregnancy, due to the secretory activity of the placenta.

<em><u>The diagram represents the normal cycle of a woman who is not pregnant</u></em>.

What is the expected phenotype of F1 progeny from a cross between two homozygous recessive mutants disrupted in different genese
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - wildtype.

Explanation:

Let assume there are four genes which are :

A-B-C-D

In mutant first, the genotype would be:---a-b-C-D

In the mutant second, the genotype would be:--A-B-c-d

If both of these genotypes are crossed with each other, the recessive genes a, b of mutant first is dominated and masked the expression by the dominant genes present in the mutant second.

Similarly, the recessive genes of the mutant second are dominated and masked expression by the dominant genes of mutant first.  This is possible only due to different genes are present in mutants.

Thus, the correct answer is - The correct answer would be - wildtype.

Explain the theory of plate tectonics and how they changed Earth's surface over time. Include the role of plate tectonics
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

The theory of plate tectonics states that the Earth's solid outer crust, the lithosphere, is separated into plates that move over the asthenosphere, the molten upper portion of the mantle. Oceanic and continental plates come together, spread apart, and interact at boundaries all over the planet.
