Answer:

The given blank can be filled with simple squamous epithelium.

Explanation:

The tissues produced from a single layer of squamous cells, which lines the surfaces are known as simple squamous epithelia. These cells are thin, large, and flat and comprise a rounded nucleus. These tissues exhibit polarity and comprise a distinct apical surface like other epithelial cells with unique membrane proteins.  

This epithelium is found generally in the areas where the transportation or absorption of substances takes place. They also perform a key role in osmosis, diffusion, and filtration. Apart from this, it is also protective and secretory in function. Simple squamous epithelium is commonly found in the alveoli of the lungs, in the kidney and in the walls of capillaries.

Bruce Wallace was a professor emeritus of genetics who performed many population studies. He worked in 1958 at the University of Cornell as a professor of genetics. In 1963, he performed a population study wherein the recessive allele <em>It </em>was at a frequency of 0.5. The population was propagated for 10 generations and the frequency of <em>It</em> for each generation was determined.

The result of this study showed that<em> lt/lt </em>died without reproducing, whereas, individuals with genotype <em>+/+ </em>were normal.

4) Study the wings of the birds in the two images below. Which of the following words applies to only one of the wing structures
Pani-rosa [81]

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 most important part of the DNA molecule?
Rainbow [258]

The main parts of a nucleotide are the nitrogenous base and sugar-phosphate backbone. A viable nucleotide can't form without them. Thus, they both have equal importance.
