What are the smallest blood cells in the frog?

Biology
1 answer:
Tamiku [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Unlike typical mammalian red blood cells, those from amphibians, such as frogs, contain a DNA-bearing nucleus that is visible in the center of the cell. The circulatory system of amphibians is rather unusual, their hearts having three chambers, two atria, and a single ventricle.

NegativePositive

Positive

The design of the amphibian circulatory system is curious because blood accumulates oxygen in the lungs and is then returned to the heart before being pumped into the rest of the circulatory system. Therefore, a mixing between oxygenated and deoxygenated blood occurs as blood returning to the heart from the lungs is mixed with incoming blood from the body. Frogs handle this situation by having a very slow metabolism and by absorbing some oxygen through their skin. In addition, the ventricle does have some directional control over the distribution of the blood.

Negative

The presence of a nucleus in amphibian red blood cells allows researchers easy access to large quantities of amphibian DNA. Frog blood has both a solid and a liquid portion. The liquid plasma carries solid elements such as red and white blood cells. Blood can be collected from frogs and the red blood cells isolated by centrifugation. After removal of the residual plasma, purified cells can be treated with specific enzymes and detergents to digest the cellular envelope and release DNA from its protein complex. The DNA is then useful for scientific studies and experiments.

Answer:

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is a process which occurs in the all living cell all the time. It is an oxidative process by which respiratory substrate such as glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) is oxidised completely in presence of oxygen(O₂) to produce carbon dioxide (CO₂), water and energy in the from of ATP. ATP is is the energy currency of the cell. The process of cellular respiration begins in cytoplasm and completes in the mitochondria of the cell.  

The overall reaction of respiration is given below:  

         C₆H₁₂O₆+ 6O₂ → 6CO₂+ 6H₂O + Energy (ATP)

Hitman42 [59]
As many as 25 percent of the cowboys who participated in the Texas cattle drives were AFRICAN AMERICANS.
Cattle drive was a main economic activity in  the Western part of America during the 19th century. The west were known for cattle breeding and they usually have to move these cattle from the home ranches to the rail-heads where they will be bought. The distance between these two points is always great and it may takes as much as two to three months before the distances are covered. The cowboy are the ones that drive the cattle to their selling points. Texas was particular successful in cow farming and as at that time about one fourth of the cows boys are of African American origin.<span />
