Answer: The right answer is- Nucleus.

Nucleus is a membrane bound specialized organelle that is present in the eukaryotic cells ( such as plant and animal cell).

This structure possesses the genetic material (which is called DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid) of living organisms that is passed from one generation to the next generation. It contains the genetic instruction in the form of nucleotide sequences ( that are transcribed and translated to form desirable protein products). The proteins ultimately control all the functions of the cell.

Schach [20]

A.

Animal cells are very close to plant cells, but they have one key difference that separates them; the cell wall.

A cell wall is a thicker layer on the outside of the cell membrane. These are unique, and are <u>only found in plant cells.</u> Animal cells just have the cell membrane as their outer part. This enables them to change shape due to the membrane being very flexible.

Plant cells do not change, and only conform to their cell wall's shape. This enables them to grow up (literally) to help gather sunlight and enable photosynthesis.

Besides the HCT, what other component of blood could be measured to give a better understanding of oxygen-carrying capacity? Exp
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The haemoglobin levels or counts can be used.

Explanation:

The oxygen carrying pigment of the blood is the heamoglobin (Hb).it is a protein molecule with for heam groups,Each of the latter can bind with  4 molecules of oxygen in a cooperate bonding.The more oxygen molecules binding by Hb,the more oxygen is carry in RBC.

Therefore if the number of Hb counts is reduced in an individual the volume of oxygen in the RBC of the subject should  reduced,Therefore, this should be a good indicator of the lower oxygen capacity of the blood of the individual.

Basically in a physiological female the Hb count/100ml of blood is 12-16g/ml,like wise 13-18g/100mI in a physiological  man.

Therefore fluctuations in the levels of these values below the set points  is an indicator of distortion in the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood.

The  amount of the blood in volume that contains RBC is called Hematocrit. Therefore for accuracy the HCT together with the Hb counts are good indicators of oxygen capacity of the blood.

A type of a balanced stretch involves targeting a specific muscle group. When stretching, a person should be aware of the agonist and antagonist muscles being stretched in able to create a balance between the joints where the muscles are attached. Stretching is an important phase in the exercise cycle and should not be missed as this prevents injuries in the joints and increases the blood flow into the muscles that were used during the activity. Stretching also contributes to lessening the lactic acid build up that happens during physical activity.</span>

Natural selection favors
Effectus [21]

Answer:

D, organisms that survive long enough to reproduce.

Explanation:

C and D are the best answers. Adaptations and skills other than speed and strength contribute to an organism's survival too, so that means it isn't C. Natural Selection is about how an organism must have useful traits to survive to reproductive stage and  successfully reproduce, so it would definitely be D.
