Answer:

Hyaline Membrane Disease

Explanation:

Hyaline Membrane Disease or the respiratory distress syndrome is a disease caused in newborn babies especially in premature infants due to the absence of the biological surfactant.

A glassy membrane composed of the dead cells and the protein is formed and lines the tiny sacs called alveoli which decreases the volume of the alveoli and difficulty in the exchange of gases in the infants.

Thus, Hyaline Membrane Disease is the correct answer.

Similarities and differences between intramembranous and endochondral ossification

<span>Similarities and differences between intramembranous and endochondral ossification<span>
Ossification is the process of bone formation. Intramembranous and endochondral ossification are the two main processes of bone formation that occur during fetal development.
</span>Similarities between intramembranous and endochondral ossification<span>; they turn cartilage into bones during bone formation and they both involve bone cells such as calcium, vascular supply and osteoblasts.
</span>Differences between intramembranous and endochondral ossification<span>; In intramembranous ossification, an intermediate cartilage is not involved, rather the bone tissue is directly laid on a primitive connective tissue called mesenchyma while in endochondral ossification, cartilage is used as a precursor for bone formation. Also, in cases of fractures, the healing process by plaster of Paris occurs through endochondral ossification while fractures which are treated by open reduction and internal fixation are healed by intramembranous ossification.

He diagram shows the genetic code, which cells use to translate a nucleotide sequence into an amino acid sequence in a protein.
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

I believe it is A, but I could be wrong.

Explanation:

I think this, because when it says, "Other, less useful, versions of the genetic code were eliminated gradually throughout the course of evolution", I think it referencing to the fact that all animals and etc, are made up of common codes, and how over time, through evolution, certain codes were eliminated, because creatures were evolving.

Which of the following is a good predictor of biodiversity in terrestrial ecosystems?
finlep [7]

The correct answer is - predator species in a community.

In the terrestrial ecosystems, a very good and usually sure predictor of the biodiversity is the existence of a predator species. The more predator species there are, the higher the biodiversity, and vice versa, the less predator species, the lesser the biodiversity.

The reason why the predators are such a good predictor of the biodiversity is that they are the species that are on the top of the food chain. That means that the predators are dependent for their survival on all the other species bellow them in the food chain, which is pretty much all species apart from themselves.

If a predator is present, than there has to be pray. If there's pray, omnivores and herbivores, than there has to be plants. All of the organisms are connected to one another, and the ones on the top of the food chain are the most dependent on the others, thus their existence usually means a healthy ecosystem with higher biodiversity.
