Answer:

Pulmonary semilunar

Explanation

Generally heart chambers are separated from each other by valves.Likewise blood vessels of the heart. When the heart contracts(systole) to ejects blood,theses valves close up,to prevent back flow and  the mixture of oxygenated with deoxygenated  blood. When these occurs the forces of closure leads   to certain distinctive sounds in the heart, detected by the stethoscope.Theses are called heart sounds,.

The pulmonary arteries take deoxygenated blood away from the heart to the pulmonary circulation in the lungs,while the aorta takes oxygenated blood away from the heart into the systemic circulation,The back flow of the blood into the pulmonary artery is prevented by the pulmonary  valves,while the aortic semi lunar valves  guide against this  in the aorta,The sounds produced by these closure is called  the dupp sound.,

However, because the the left sternal border of the second intercostal space is the location of the Pulmonary semiminular valves.Therefore the closure is the actual sound of dupp.

How would soil fertility likely change during the early years of primary succession?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
Primary succession is a method of fertilizing soil that was barren and had never supported plant life, for example soil left over by a moved glacier of lava.
The soil is first "normalized", using pioneer species such as lichens, algae and fungi.
After this, plants able to survive in less harsh conditions such as grasses.
Therefore, the fertility of soil during early years of primary succession does not increase much and it is a process that involves a long period of time.

Random orientation of homologous pairs of chromosomes during meiosis I results in alternative arrangements that contribute to ge
iogann1982 [59]

Random orientation of homologous pairs of chromosomes during meiosis I results in alternative arrangements that contribute to genetic variation in offspring. This is called "independent assortment".

<u>Explanation:</u>

The sets of homologous chromosomes, also recognized as bivalents or tetrads, align along the metaphase plate in a random order in metaphase I of meiosis I. Another way for cells to incorporate genetic variation is by spontaneous orientation. Mendel's independent assortment law stipulates that, independently of one another, the alleles of two or more different genes are sorted into gamets.

In other terms, for one gene, the allele that a gamete receives does not affect the allele that is obtained for another.Genetic recombination (by random segregation) and crossing over during meiosis creates daughter cells each containing different combinations of maternally and paternally coded genes.
