Answer:
The two basic function of meiosis is listed below.
1. Genetic recombination:
In meiosis crossing over occurs that results into genetic recombination.
2. Ensure constant chromosome number:
The number of chromosomes reduce to half in germ cells that reunite in sexual reproduction and ensure the survival of species by keeping constant chromosome numbers. Have a good day.
They lose water by evaporation on their skin and respiratory surfaces
Answer:
Both have two circuits for circulation.
Explanation:
- The two circuits of circulations are known as the systemic circuit and the pulmonary circuit.
- In the<u> systemic circuit</u> oxygenated blood from the heart is pumped to all parts of the body through the blood vessels and then the blood is pumped back to he heart.
- In the<u> pulmonary circuit</u> deoxygenated blood from all parts of the body is pumped from the heart to the lungs to be oxygenated and after it is oxygenated it is pumped back to the heart.
The cell membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer.
The cell membrane is primarily composed of a mix of proteins and phospholipids
Phospholipids are a major component of cell membranes. They a head and a tail. The head is hydrophilic (attracted to water) and the tail is hydrophobic (repelled by water).
They form a bilayer in which their hydrophilic heads face the aqueous cytosol and extracellular fluid while their hydrophobic tails face away from the cytosol and extracellular fluid.
The lipid bilayer is semi - permeable
