Answer:

A. COAGULATION

Explanation:

Hemostasis is stopping bleeding. To prevent or keep blood in the blood vessels due to damage of the vessels.

Three steps are important in hemostasis;

1. Vasoconstriction : which is the contraction of the smooth muscles of the blood vessels reducing the amount of blood flow to the area of damage and thereby blood loss.

2. Platelet Plug Formation: this is the function of platelet in the blood. It attaches to the damaged endothelium and form a plug.

3. Coagulation/ Clotting : this is the release of clotting factors to the surface of the damaged vessel.

Fibrin is a major component of the clotting factor.

So therefore, coagulation is a process in hemostasis. Formation of platelet plug is a stage also and not the formation of platelet in the blood.

Begin at the ovaries of susie and the testes of billy.track the processes of ovulation for susie and ejaculation of billy.
Shkiper50 [21]

Ovulation and ejaculation are the processes that involve the release of the female and male gamete  for the process of fertilization.

<u>Ovulation</u>

  • The release of an egg from one of a woman's ovaries is known as ovulation.
  • Ovulation usually lasts for one day and takes place two weeks before a woman anticipates getting her period, in the midst of her menstrual cycle.
  • However, the procedure takes a different amount of time for every woman, and it might even change from month to month.
  • A sperm cell can fertilize an egg when it exits a woman's ovary and enters the fallopian tube.
  • Sperm can survive for three to five days inside a woman's reproductive system.
  • The uterine walls thicken during ovulation in order to accommodate a fertilized egg. On the other hand, if the egg is not fertilized, the uterine lining is lost around two weeks later, which results in menstruation.

<u>Ejaculation</u>

  • Ejaculation, the male reproductive system's discharge of sperm cells and seminal plasma.
  • Sperm are transported from the testicles and the epididymis, where they are stored, to the beginning of the urethra, a hollow tube that runs through the pen!s and transports either sperm or urine.
  • In the second stage, known as the actual ejaculation, the semen is transported through the urethra and expelled from the body.

Does the water cycle, the nitrogen cycle, and the carbon-oxygen cycle play a role in ecosystem balance? Explain.
Anika [276]

Explanation: The water cycle is also known as the hydrological cycle. It describes how water moves on, above, or just below the surface of our planet. Water molecules move between various locations - such as rivers, oceans and the atmosphere - by specific processes. Water can change state. Nitrogen compounds found in cells include proteins. Nitrogen from the air is converted into soluble ions that plant roots can absorb. It forms part of nitrogen compounds in the plants, and is then passed from one organism to the next. It is returned to the atmosphere as nitrogen gas. This is the nitrogen cycle. The carbon-oxygen cycle is the process by which plants use carbon dioxide for respiration during photosynthesis and produce oxygen. During this process, carbon dioxide becomes part of the plant, and when the plant dies in a carbon-rich state it is possible for it to become a fossil fuel.
