This devastation has wrecked many ecosystems. The state has lost 90 percent of our coastal wetlands and inland wetlands, 99 percent of our riparian areas, and most of our native grasslands. California is also a critical nexus for the biodiversity loss taking place in our oceans.
Answer:
The correct answer is: It allows large masses of food to pass through the esophagus when swallowing.
Explanation:
The trachea, or windpipe, is a hollow organ that <u>connects the larynx to the bronchi and allows the passage of air</u> so it can reach the lungs and make the gas exchange possible.
The trachea has cartilages around it to reinforce the tube for protection and to maintain the airway open. The places where there's cartilage are the anterior and the lateral sides of the trachea. This cartilage has the shape of an incomplete ring, or the shape of a C to allow the passage of food. The side that has no cartilage is the posterior side of the trachea, which is the side that is <u>in relation to the esophagus</u> - the part of the gastrointestinal tract that transports the food from the buccal cavity to the stomach.
The extra X chromosome is received from mother.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>
Klinefelter's syndrome is the condition of chromosomal aberration where the person has an extra X chromosome. This means the genotype of the person is 44+XXY and the total chromosome number is 47. This condition is achieved due to inappropriate meiotic division and one of the sperm or ovum has the an extra X chromosome.
Here both the parents are normal in terms of colour vision. So the father cannot have the gene of colour blindness because if it was present, then father would have been colour blind because he has only one X chromosome per cell. So its present in mother who is heterozygous in terms of colour blind gene. So the extra X chromosome also came from her which made the presence of two defective X chromosomes in the offspring and made it colour blind.
Water waves are an example of waves that involve a combination of both longitudinal and transverse motions. As a wave travels through the waver, the particles travel in clockwise circles. The radius of the circles decreases as the depth into the water increases. The animation at right shows a water wave travelling from left to right in a region where the depth of the water is greater than the wavelength of the waves. I have identified two particles in orange to show that each particle indeed travels in a clockwise circle as the wave passes.
