Answer:

The answer is A) Homologous structures

Explanation:

Homologous Structures:

  • Homologous structures are anatomical features in an organism that are structurally and functionally diverse but they originate from a single common ancestor.
  • Homologous structures possess a similar basic internal structure but can have entirely different morphology and function.
  • For example, the wings of a bat and a human's arm have the same internal structure but they have different functions.
  • Vestigial structures are evolutionary remnants that no longer serve a purpose in modern forms or descendants of the original organism.
  • Inherited and developmental are out of context in terms of evolutionary relationships.

What is the thin layer of endothelial tissue that lines the inner surface of the heart and the valves called
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

Endocardium

Explanation:

The endocardium makes the innermost lining of the wall of the heart. It is present over the thin layer of connective tissue. The function of the endocardium is to provide a smooth lining for the chambers of the heart. The valves present in the heart also have endocardium. The dense connective tissue of the heart valves is covered by endocardium.

The presence of the smooth endocardium made up of endothelium reduces the surface friction as blood passes through the heart. The endocardium of heart chambers is continuous with the endothelial lining of the large blood vessels that are attached to the heart.

Answer:

B. oxygen and carbon dioxide.

Explanation:

During cellular respiration, organisms uses oxygen for breakdown of food molecules such glucose and carbondioxide gas is released in the atmosphere. Respiration is a process in which energy is produced in the form of Adenine tri phosphate (ATP) and releases carbondioxide by the chemical combination of glucose and oxygen molecules. The type of respiration in which oxygen is used is known as aerobic respiration.
