STatiana [176]3 years ago

<span>There are three primary systems in the body that act as a buffer, in order to help maintain pH stability. The first is known as the phosphate buffer, which neutralizes excess hydroxide ions as they enter cellular fluid. The second is called the protein buffer, and maintains acidity in the body. The hemoglobin in blood, which binds to acids in the bloodstream, is one such example of this system. The third system is called the carbonic acid bicarbonate buffer, which neutralizes the acids generated by various metabolic processes, such as digestion and respiration.</span>

Advantages to using a punnet square
timofeeve [1]
A Punnett square summarizes how the processes of meiosis and fertilization contribute to inheritance of different alleles of a gene.

Identifying the genetic sex of a child is based on finding intracellular barr bodies that consist of?
AURORKA [14]

Identifying the genetic sex of a child is based on finding intracellular Barr bodies that consist of inactive chromatin material.

Inactive chromatin material is the one where no transcription takes place. It is also known by the name heterochromatin. It appears as a dark condensed form in the chromatin.

Barr bodies are the inactive X chromosomes. These are mad inactive by a process termed as lyonization. It is essential to make the chromosome inactive in organisms with XY type of sex determination. They are present at the periphery of the nucleus. Inactivation of X chromosome makes the amount of X chromosomes equal in both, males and females.

What is responsible for the red tide phenomenon? It is a phenomenon that usually coincides with storm surges; the name comes fro
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Red tide occurs in patches of water where certain species of dinoflagellates flourish.

Explanation:  

Red tides refer to the noticeable microalgae proliferation that can be recognized for being a big spot in the sea of a characteristic coloration. This phenomenon is caused by two microalgae groups: diatoms and dinoflagellates, both part of phytoplankton.

Red tides occur when certain environmental factors -such as temperature, light, nutrients availability, ph, etcetera- favor the overproduction of these organisms. These species produce toxins that turn to be dangerous for other animal species that feed on them.

Because these microorganisms produce pigments, their accumulation on the sea surface can be noticed as reddish, brown, or greenish color spots of variable extension.
