Answer:

The correct answer is: D) The kidneys are paired organs that regulate water and electrolyte balance in terrestrial vertebrates.

Explanation:

The kidneys are the organs that control, for example, the volume of body fluid compartments, acid-base balance, and electrolyte concentrations. These organs are also key to eliminate the toxins from the body.

The kidneys are always two (when not is because of a pathology or the surgical removal of one of the two) and are present in vertebrates.

The kidneys do not regulate blood glucose. That is the job of the pancreas through two hormones called insulin and glucagon.

The kidneys do not remove nitrogenous wastes (urea) from the urine, instead they filtrate these wastes from the blood for these to be excreted through urine.

Answer:

d) The kidneys are paired organs that regulate water and electrolyte balance in terrestrial vertebrates

Explanation:

The kidney is a bean shaped organ of the body. It is responsible for homeostasis and helps in the regulation of the body’s fluid balance, filters the blood from waste.

Humans have a pair of kidneys that is 2 kidneys. They remove nitrogenous waste products from the blood and deposits it into the urine.

Answer:

The correct answer is option C. They absorb water vapor from the atmosphere, providing water to the plant for photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Stomata are small opening present on the lower side of leaf. Its main function is to exchange of gases that are required for the process of photosynthesis. During day time, stomata are open and carbondioxode which is a raw material used for the production of glucose is absorbed from air and oxygen is released in the atmosphere.

docker41 [41]

Answer:

undergo irreversible repression

Explanation:

Cellular differentiation refers to the process by which one cell and/or cell population divides and differentiates into more specialized cells. During cell fate differentiation, epigenetic marks modify chromatin structure in order to hamper the accessibility of the transcriptional machinery and transcriptional factors to different genes, which are irreversibly repressed. These epigenetic marks include DNA methylation and histone modifications (e.g., histone acetylation, histone methylation, etc). For example, it has been shown that DNA methylation and histone H3 lysine 27 tri‐methylation (H3K27me3) are epigenetic repressive marks on genomic regions that play a major role in gene expression programs during cell fate differentiation.
