Answer:

Cephalocaudal.

Explanation:

Cephalocaudal refers to the head to the toe of the body. The cephalocaudal principle denotes the motor and the physical development of the individual infants to the early childhood.

This principle explains the phenomena of the post natal development  and includes the development of the weight, size, and differentiation of the body. The development always occur from the top to the bottom fashion. The first control of the head will occur and later the toe.

Prokaryotic bacteria are surrounded by a ____________ that contains the ____________ to regulate the entry and exit of materials
lukranit [14]

Prokaryotic bacteria are surrounded by a cell membrane that contains the transport proteins to regulate the entry and exit of materials through the cell, the cell wall to help maintain cell shape and structure, and the capsule, which aids against drying out and protects bacteria from a host's immune system.

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

Bacteria are the prokaryotic organisms that are found in every part of Earth. These organisms do have an interesting ultrastructure. The coverings of the bacteria are three in layer. They are

A. The outer capsule.

B. The middle cell wall.

C. The inner cell membrane.

The capsule is the outermost covering of bacteria that is formed of different slimy materials. These materials contains hygroscopic substances which can absorb water from the surroundings even when the water concentration in outside is very very low. This layer of protection outside bacteria help them to protect themselves against drying out at dry conditions.

The middle cell wall is formed of polymers of N acetyl glucosamine and N acetyl muramic acid. This layer is chitin in nature and is strong enough to maintain the shape and size of bacteria irrespective of outer conditions.

The innermost layer of bacteria is cell membrane which is formed of proteins and lipids bilayer and this cell membrane contains different transport for proteins which help in transport of different substances like water and nutrients inside the cell by means of active transport or passive diffusion.

Explain how fossils can give information about past environmental conditions. Give at least two examples. Answer using complete
Anna35 [415]
Fossils can give information about past environmental conditions by showing the type of animal they belonged to. If a scientist found a whale fossil in a desert, he/she could assume that the desert was once an ocean as whales only live in oceans. If someone found a fossil of a lizard that inhabited trees, in the middle of the ocean, then he/she could assume that the ocean didn't exist at one point and instead, there might have been a forest in it's place.
Hope this helps!
