Cholesterol is an important component of animal cell membranes. Cholesterol molecules are often delivered to body cells by the b

lood. which transports the molecules in the form of cholesterol- protein complexes. The complexes must be moved into the body cells before the cholesterol molecules can be incorporated into the phospholipid bilayers of cell membranes. Based on the information presented, which of the following is the most likely explanation for a buildup of cholesterol molecules in the blood of an animal? The animal's body cells are defective in exocytosis. The animal's body cells are defective in endocytosisy c) The animal's body cells are defective in cholesterol synthesis. (D) The animal's body cells are defective in phospholipid synthesis.

Answer:

The correct answer is - option B. The animal's body cells are defective in endocytosis.

Explanation:

Endocytosis is the process that internalized the substances inside the cells by the area surrounded by the membrane. This is the process that helps in the internalize cholesterol-protein complexes.

If the cells are not able to perform this then cholesterol-protein would not be internalized by the cell and it will remain in the blood and buildup cholesterol molecule.

Thus, the correct answer is - option B.

Answer:

The correct answer is option B, that is, the cells of the animal body are defective in endocytosis.

Explanation:

In the given case, in my opinion, one should perform the experiment in a similar manner with no change. An experiment is done many times in order to omit any influences of sampling or handling on the outcomes of the study. For this purpose, the repetitive experiments have to be performed in a similar way as the previous ones were performed. After that, the outcomes of the repetitive experiment and the initial one are compared.  

If any conditions or variables are changed in the experiment, the outcomes of the repeated experiment cannot be compared with the initial one. As variations in experimental material, variables, or procedure would have influenced the outcomes.

Where do the branches of the bronchial tree ultimately end? 2. list the steps of the pulmonary circuit of the cardiovascular sys
Aneli [31]
1. The branches of the bronchial tree ultimately ends at the alveoli.
Bronchial tree consist of bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoli. Bronchi are formed as the lower part of the trachea divides into two tubes. Bronchioles are smaller tube divisions of the bronchi. It walls contain smooth muscle and no cartilage. Alveoli are tiny ends of the alveolar ducts, which functions as the site for gaseous exchange. 

2. Blood flows from the left atrium; mitral (bicuspid valves), the left ventricle, aortic valve, aorta, veins and heart, right side of the heart, superior and inferior vena cavae, right atrium, tricuspid valve, right ventricle, pulmonary valve, pulmonary trunk, pulmonary artery, lungs, pulmonary veins, then back to the heart...

3. Arteries and the veins differ in structures and they way they functions; Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart to the body (except pulmonary artery) while veins carry deoxygenated blood back from the body to the heart (except pulmonary veins). A structural differences includes; the veins contain valves while arteries lack. Arteries have narrow lumen while veins have wide lumen. Lastly, blood carried by veins has higher pressure compared to blood carried in vessels.

4. The circulatory and respiratory systems work together to circulate blood and oxygen throughout the body. Air moves in and out of the lungs through the trachea, bronchi, and the bronchioles. Blood moves in and out of the lungs throgh the pulmonary arteries and veins that connect to the heart.

5. The cartilage rings of the trachea
They are strong but flexible tissues which support the trachea or the windpipe while still allowing it to move and flex during breathing. Additionally these cartilage rings are C-shaped to provide room for the esophagus, which lies along the back side of the trachea.

6. Functions of the larynx includes;
To protect the airway from choking on material in the throat
to regulate the flow of air into our lungs
The production of sounds used for speech 
Larynx is part of the respiratory system and is located between the pharynx and the trachea. Humans use larynx to breathe, talk and swallow. 

7. Structures that make up the pathway of air through the respiratory system starting with the external nares; We start with; External nares, nasal cavity, internal nares, nasopharynx, laryngopharynx,oropharynx, larynx, trachea, primary bronchus, secondary bronchus, tertiary bronchus, bronchiole, terminal bronchiole, respiratory bronchiole, alveolar duct, alveolar sac and alveolus.

S_A_V [24]

The phylum Arthropoda contains a wide diversity of animals with hard exoskeletons and jointed appendages. Many familiar species belong to the phylum Arthropoda—insects, spiders, scorpions, centipedes, and millipedes on land; crabs, crayfish, shrimp, lobsters, and barnacles in water (Fig. 3.72).
