5 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The lymphatic capillaries have the role to drain extracellular fluid, more precisely the interstitial fluid that surrounds cells. Lymph capillaries process the interstitial fluid, collect  it together with the white blood cells and form a lymph. Formed lymph is then transported into a lymphatic vessel, which is connected to a lymph node. Lymph is at the end returned to the venous circulation.

What are the mechanisms by which aneuploidy and polyploidy are caused? What are the mechanisms by which aneuploidy and polyploid
sleet_krkn [62]

The correct answer is:

The principal cause of aneuploidy is chromosome nondisjunction during mitosis or meiosis. Polyploidy in nature can result either from the duplication of euploid chromosome sets from a single species or from the combining of chromosome sets from different species.  

Aneuploidy is a phenomenon when there is the presence of an abnormal number of chromosomes in a cell (an extra or missing chromosome). Usually it appears as a result of improper cell division (chromosomes don’t separate) and it can cause many genetic disorders.

Polyploidy refers to a state when there are more than two sets of chromosomes (one from mother one from father). Triploid (three sets of chromosomes) and tetraploid (four sets of chromosomes) chromosomes are examples of polyploidy. This phenomenon is most common in plants.

Macy has hired 400 store sanyas. If each Santa sees 125 children a day for 30 days, how many children are seen by mac's santa
Pachacha [2.7K]
So here let's first find the amount of children every santa, in total, sees in one day. So if there are 400 santas, and each sees 125 children, you can just multiply 400 by 125 to see how many children all the Santas see in one day.

400 * 125 = 50,000

Now, since there are 30 days which all the santas see 50,000 children, you can then multiply 30 by the 50,000 children to get how many children are seen by Macy's Santas in a month.

30 * 50,000 = 1,500,000

So 1,500,000 children are seen by Macy's Santas.
