Challenges of moving from an aquatic to a terrestrial environment You have the pleasure of observing wood frog tadpoles in a pon

d on campus. You see them make the transition from gilled larvae into adults with lungs. In order to make this amazing transformation from an entirely aquatic life to one that includes time on land, your tadpoles will face a series of obstacles, not unlike those that the first vertebrate inhabitants of land faced. Complete the following sentences to correctly examine those changes.
circulatory system Because of their large________ , ancestral amphibians likely faced challenges supporting themselves out of the aquatic environment.
cartilaginous bones feeding Although there was far_________ oxygen available to gills in air than in water, the delicate structure of gills couldn't be supported in the terrestrial environment.
excretory system The costs of locomotion on land and greater oxygen demand from enlarged muscles led to modifications of the heart and_________
body size

Answer:

body size

more

circulatory system

egg deposition

Explanation:

Because of their large <em>body size</em> , ancestral amphibians likely faced challenges supporting themselves out of the aquatic environment.

Although there was far <em>more</em> oxygen available to gills in air than in water, the delicate structure of gills couldn't be supported in the terrestrial environment.

The costs of locomotion on land and greater oxygen demand from enlarged muscles led to modifications of the heart and <em>circulatory system</em>

These early amphibians could not venture too far away from water because <em>egg deposition</em> was restricted to moist environments.

Describe the Cell Cycle [Interphase, G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase]<br> describe them all please :)
Svet_ta [14]

<em>G1, S and G2 phases are all cumulatively referred to as interphase involving the growth of a cell and the replication of its DNA. Initially in G1 phase, the cell grows physically and increases the volume of both protein and organelles. In S phase, the cell copies its DNA to produce two sister chromatids and replicates its nucleosomes. Finally, G2 phase involves further cell growth and organisation of cellular contents. The S phase of a cell cycle occurs during interphase, before mitosis or meiosis, and is responsible for the synthesis or replication of DNA. In this way, the genetic material of a cell is doubled before it enters mitosis or meiosis, allowing there to be enough DNA to be split into daughter cells. The S phase only begins when the cell has passed the G1 checkpoint and has grown enough to contain double the DNA. S phase is halted by a protein called p16 until this happens.</em>

Which would not be found in pancreatic juice secreted into the duodenum?
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

The answer is insulin.

Explanation:

Pancreatic juice is an enzyme containing secretion produced by the pancreas into the small intestine. Enzymes in the pancreas help in digesting proteins, carbohydrates and fats. The constituent enzymes are as follows:

  1. Trypsinogen and Chymotrypsinogen: Precursors of the proteases, trypsin and chymotrypsin that digest proteins. They are released as precursors to protect the intestinal lining. Enterokinase, an enzyme secreted by small intestine's epithelial cells, activates these precursor.
  2. Lipase: Enzyme that digests lipids by hydrolysing triglycerides into 2-monoglyceride and two free fatty acids.
  3. Amylase that helps in digesting any left over carbohydrates and complex starch.

Insulin:

Insulin can never be part of pancreatic juice because it is a hormone, not an enzyme. Hormones are chemical messengers secreted only in blood. Insulin is a hormone secreted by the pancreas to lower blood glucose levels by binding to insulin receptors on cells and stimulating the intake of glucose through glucose transport channels (GLUTs) in the cell membrane.
