Answer: urea disposal

Explanation:

<u>The liver, which is the largest organ in the human body, performs three vital functions of the organism: detoxification, synthesis and storage. </u>

The liver acts as an authentic filter that collects and eliminates numerous toxins, such as ammonia, or toxins that we ingest, such as alcohol (it performs a biotransformation of toxins). Our liver is also responsible for the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins, secreting bile, an essential element for the digestion. It also prevents bleeding through a coagulation process. And it is a container of vitamins (A, D, E, K) and glycogen (carbohydrates), while energy is stored in the form of sugar, made available to our organization.

The urea cycle takes place primarily in the liver. Organisms convert ammonia to a less toxic substance, such as urea, via the urea cycle. <u>Then it is released into the bloodstream where it travels to the kidneys and is ultimately excreted in urine. </u>

So, the liver is involved in the production of urea, but the kidney is responsible of its disposal.

In case of a Natural Disaster, taking the desition about who must receive the benefits of a donation is: a. A Dilemma of Justice
4vir4ik [10]

In case of a Natural Disaster, taking the decision about who must receive the benefits of a donation is "a locus of authority".

<u>Option:</u> D

<u>Explanation:</u>

A locus of authority arises when questions are raised about who is accountable or under which jurisdiction anything falls. In the scenario of some health, law or environmental (natural disaster) emergency the central or state governments are responsible for releasing funds to rescue the region by providing basic needs like food, medical aids, etc.

This phase is very important for the head of nation because allocating fund is easy but in right hands is trick, so the authority to whom fund is handover for further processing via right channel and to targeted audience is uttermost priority, also in time.

For each of the following statements, indicate
stepan [7]

The plants that were allowed to self pollinate were the F1 plants.

The plants that are true breeding are P generation plants.

The plants where there were 3times as many tall plants as short plants are in F2 generation.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

This question is based on the Mendel’s Experiment. Sir Gregor Johann Mendel was the father of genetics who experimented on garden pea plants <em>Pisum</em> <em>sativum</em> to see whether the characters got mixed or not and to know the real cause behind different traits of same character in plants.

He took the pure homozygous tall and short plants separately which he called as parental generation or P generation. These plants were homozygous, hence pure breeding.

As these plants were crossed between themselves, then the F1 generation showed all tall plants. This is because of the heterozygous plants which showed character of dominant trait. These plants were allowed to self pollinate.

As a result of self pollination of the F1 plants, the F2 plants were 75% tall in number whereas the other 25% short, which gave the phenotypic ratio of 3:1.
