<span>The correct answer is b.0.5 to 1 micrometre thick.</span>
Usually, the respiratory membrane is about 0.6 micrometres thick. This membrane consists of the alveolar epithelial cells, the capillary endothelial cell, and basement membranes which are formed by the alveolar and capillary cells.
Answer:
"low cost of water to users and lack of government subsidies for improving the efficiency of water use"
Explanation:
- low cost of water to users and lack of government subsidies for improving the efficiency of water use
The leading cause of water pollution? agriculture.
In the western United States, as compared to the eastern United States, the major water problem is chronic drought and insufficient runoff

Transport of blood under high pressure is done through the concerted efforts of the heart and arteries.
<h2>The circulatory system is the network of the heart, arteries, veins, and capillaries responsible for the movement of blood around the body.</h2>
Transporting blood under high pressure can be explained in the following steps:
- Contraction of the heart ventricles creates blood under high pressure
- High pressured blood is removed from the heart through the arteries. In addition, the arteries are able to contract and expand, thus are elastic
- The lumen of the arteries is narrow thus helping in maintaining high pressure
As a result of the above, the high pressure of blood is maintained and transported to the extremities of the body.

Answer:
G and K
Explanation:
Crossing-over is a genetic phenomenon that occurs in meiosis, specifically, Prophase I. It is when chromosomal segment (genes) are exchanged between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes. Crossing-over occurs only to genes that are UNLINKED i.e. genes located on different chromosomes or far apart on the same chromosome.
This unlinked genes are said to have the highest RECOMBINATION FREQUENCY. Crossing-over allows genes on the same chromosome but far apart from each other, assort independently, which allows alleles to be recombined on the same chromosome. This phenomenon does not occur to genes that are close on the same chromosome as they will be inherited together as a unit.
In this case, G and K are the farthest apart, hence, they will have the highest RECOMBINATION FREQUENCY i.e. the likelihood for homologous crossing-over to take place during meiosis.
