Biology
1 answer:
lys-0071 [83]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

a. VIP (vasoactive intestinal peptide)

Explanation:

The enteric nervous system (ENS)  is one of the main divisions of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) together with sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. This system consists of neurons that regulate the function of the gastrointestinal tract (GI).

Inhibitory interneurons that are part of the enteric nervous system also known as Dogiel type I neurones achieve their inhibitory transmission via nitric oxide, adenosine triphosphate,  vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and pituitary activating cyclic AMP. They usually act directly on smooth muscles of GI.

ANTONII [103]

Answer: Mendel would have concluded that one pair of factors (genes) is responsible for two different characters in plants.

Explanation:

The 9:3:3:1  ratio observed by Mendel helped him to form his <em>Law of Independent Assortment </em>which states that the inheritance of one pair of factors (genes) is independent of the inheritance of the other pair.

Also from his previous studies, he obtained a 3:1 ratio for a single gene expression, flower color, which enabled to form <em> the Law of Segregation</em>, which states individuals possess two alleles and a parent passes only one allele to his/her offspring.

However, if he had observed a 3:1 ratio for two traits, he would have concluded that inheritance of characters occurs in pairs i.e., that a pair of alleles is responsible for two different characters in plants.

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

B. functional body cavity lined by tissues derived only from endoderm

Explanation:

From the word "Pseudo" means false i.e something that is not true or literally acting in place for a particular real subject.

Coelom on the other-hand is an fluid-filled hollow cavity that act as the skeletal structure for an organism. They act helps serves as cushion effects for the organism.

Ceolomates are organism that have ceolom and the body tissues are derived from the mesodermal layer that lined the body cavity of organism possessing these ceolom.

But in pseudocoelomate they do not have a true ceolom, but there functional body cavity lined by tissues derived only from the endoderm.
