Answer:

The correct answer is option C "The pressure change causes the organ of Corti to vibrate vertically".

Explanation:

The organ of Corti is an important structure for auditory perception that acts as a receptor organ for hearing.  The organ of Corti is located in the mammalian cochlea and it allows for the transduction of auditory signals into nerve impulses according to the vibrations that are received from external sources. If the receiving sounds comes from the stapes pushing against membrane covering the oval window, the pressure change will causes the organ of Corti to vibrate vertically. Stimulus from membrane covering the oval window are sent to the organ of Corti, which responds by vibrating vertically.

Answer:

D. Transport of oxygen through a placenta to a fetus.

Fertilization is internal not external in human. Option B is wrong.

Production of milk happens in the mammary gland (the breast) not in the reproductive system. Option C is false.

List, in order, all the vessels blood must flow through to get from the abdominal aorta into the kidney and back to the inferior
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Kidneys are the important organ of excretion. Human kidneys are bean shaped located below the rib cage. Different vessels are involved in the transportation of blood from the abdominal aorta  and back to the inferior vena cava.

The order of blood vessels are:

The blood enters in the aorta and and moves to the renal artery. Then the blood moves to the interlobar artery via segmental artery. The blood enters in the afferent glomerular arteriole from the arcuate artery and cortical radiate artery. Glomerulus receive the blood from the afferent glomerular arteriole. Then, the blood moves to the efferent glomerular arteriole. The blood then enters in the cortical radiate vein via peritubular capillaries and vasa recta. The blood moves back to the inferior vena cava from the arcuate vein, interlobar vein and renal vein.

In what ways do cells use energy
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Image result for In what ways do cells use energy

Cells do not use the energy from oxidation reactions as soon as it is released. Instead, they convert it into small, energy-rich molecules such as ATP and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), which can be used throughout the cell to power metabolism and construct new cellular components.

7. Which molecule is light energy temporarily stored in before being used to make glucose?
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The Calvin cycle uses CO2 and the energy temporarily stored in ATP and NADPH to make the sugar glucose. Photosynthesis is a two stage process. As is depicted here, the energy from sunlight is needed to start photosynthesis. The initial stage is called the light reactions as they occur only in the presence of light
