Hello. This question is incomplete. The complete question is:

"Which scenario is an example of functional adaptation?  A. a male bird let's out a mating call to attract a female bird  B. poison dart frogs produce a roxic venmon that they can secrete out thier skin  C. cobras elongate thier body when threatened  D. the color and shape of a flounder allow it to camouflage."

Answer:

D. the color and shape of a flounder allow it to camouflage.

Explanation:

Functional adaptation is a term used when a living organism adapts its body to the environment so that it helps it to survive. This adaptation may be related to the camouflage of individuals (camouflage helps them survive predator attacks) or the adaptation that allows the glass to generate substances essential to the organism's survival, such as plants that have adapted the way they make photosynthesis.

Among the options given in the question above, one that shows an example of functional adaptation is the letter D.

• ¿Qué factores son clave para el manejo correcto del microscopio compuesto u óptico cuando se observa una muestra?
leonid [27]

Answer:

1-Tener en cuenta el tamaño del objeto a observar para utilizar la lente con el aumento correcto (es decir, 10 X, 40 X o 100 X)

2-Utilizar aceite de inmersión para ver objetos en 100 X

Explanation:

El microscopio óptico posee lentes (ocular y objetivo) los cuales permiten ampliar la imagen del objeto observado. El microscopio simple y el compuesto representan dos tipos de microscopios ópticos. El microscopio compuesto es aquel que utiliza más de una lente para aumentar la imagen observada, mientras que el microscopio simple usa una sola lente (la cual se denomina lupa). El microscopio óptico puede utilizar un aceite de inmersión que permite aumentar la resolución de la imagen a través de la inmersión de la lente objetivo. Es importante señalar que durante el enfocado de la muestra se debe tener sumo cuidado de no acercar demasiado la lente a la superficie del cubreobjeto, ya que esta puede dañarse.

Which source creates the most direct pollution?
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Water pollution is one of  the most common type of pollution that leads to the deterioration of the water quality mainly due to the man-made interference. Direct and indirect pollution are two of its types. Direct pollution as the term suggests refers to the direct flow of pollutants in the water in contrast to the indirect pollution that  accounts for the transport of pollutants eventually to the water body.

Explanation:

Direct pollution is characterized by the release of toxic fluid directly in the water body. The main source of this type of pollution are the toxic pollutants from the large factories. Some of the other sources includes solid waste from the household activities and waste from agricultural practice like fertilizers, and the waste generated by the waste water treatment plant.

<h2>Fatty acid oxidation </h2>

Explanation:

  • Activation of fatty acids (palmitate) occurs in the cytoplasm where fatty acids are activated to fatty acyl CoA, reaction catalysed by an enzyme called fatty acyl CoA synthetase
  • A specialized carnitine carrier system catalyze transportation of activated fatty acid from cytoplasm to matrix of mitochondria, where carnitine system consists of three proteins:
  • Carnitine acyl transferase I located in outer membrane of mitochondria catalyze transfer of carnitine to fatty acyl CoA and produce fatty acyl carnitine
  • Carnitine translocase facilitate passive diffusion of fatty acyl carnitine from inter membrane space to matrix located in inner membrane
  • Carnitine acyl transferase III located in inner mitochondrial membrane at matrix phase catalyze transfer of CoA to fatty acyl carnitine and regenerate fatty acyl CoA

Hence, the cytosolic and mitochondrial pools of CoA are thus kept separate, and no radioactive CoA from the cytosolic pool enters the mitochondria
