Answer:

Explanation:

They are located at the armpits, anogenital regions,ear canal,eye lids, areola and nipples of the breast.

The Apocrine gland  has a  direct link to the hair follicle.it is made up of clusters of secretory tubules, which emptied to the hair follicles through the excretory duct. This gland secretions is not continuous, but in periodic fashion. The components of the secretion are protein,lipids, steroids. The secretion is usually odorless and Oily in nature. However  this changed when mixed with bacterial or germs on exposure to the skin surface.

At the base of the hair follicles are the sebacious glands which produced sebum. Therefore as the apocrine secretion leaves the secretory ducts, they are mixed with sebum to reach the epidermal surface of the skin.

Which of these is an example of an abiotic factor
Lilit [14]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf B. \ Rocky \ desert \ soil}}

Explanation:

An abiotic factor is a part of an ecosytem, but it is not alive. Some examples include water, rocks, sunlight, and the atmosphere.

On the other hand, a biotic factor is a living part of an ecosystem. Some examples are animals, plants, and fungi.

Let's look at the answer choices.

A creosote plant (choice A) kangaroo rat (choice C) and coyote (choice D) are all living organisms. Therefore, they must be biotic factors.

However, rocky desert soil (choice B) is not living. It's a part of the ecosystem, but since it's not alive it must be <u>abiotic.</u>

Suppose only one gene with 2 alleles determines a particular trait but the alleles are codominant. how mant different phenotypes
Leona [35]

The answer is one trait. In Codominant alleles, neither allele is dominant over the other. Both alleles are expressed equally hence no recessive or dominant phenotypes. An example of that of fur color in rabbits where one  parent with black fur color and the other with white fur color will produce offspring of black and white fur color. This should not be confused with incomplete dominance  whre the two alleles blend in phenotype.Example of incomplete dominance is a parent with straight hair in humans and another with curled hair will produce wavy hair offsprings.

Absorption would be the appropriate term to describe the movement of organic substrates, inorganic ions, vitamins, and water flowing from the epithelium to the interstitial fluid of the digestive tract. The action is a significant digestive process because the absorbed substance would be distributed to the cells via the bloodstream.
