Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

The path of oxygen from the atmosphere to the lungs can be described from the nasal cavity to the alveoli. The oxygen is inhaled with air during the breathing process that travels from the nasal cavity to the pharynx that is tube or tract where mouth or oral cavity and nasal cavity combined. Oxygen moves from pharynx to the larynx and then to trachea or the windpipe.

The trachea is a tube that extended to the larynx to the 2 primary bronchi. Oxygen moves from the trachea to the bronchi. Bronchi are the main passage of oxygen to the lungs. Bronchi shuttle air to and from the lungs. These are of three types and oxygen travels into each in order first primary bronchi then secondary and in last to tertiary bronchi and bronchioles and ultimately to the site of gas exchange called alveoli.

Pathway - nasal cavities  > pharynx > trachea >bronchi (primary bronchi (right & left) > secondary bronchi > tertiary bronchi)> bronchioles > alveoli.

Thus, the correct answer is option C.

Answer:

r-selected species (e.g., American bullfrog)

Explanation:

The r-selected species (r-strategists) are those species in which their populations oscillate near the carrying capacity, i.e., the maximum population size sustained by a particular environment. These species are generally located in low-quality (less competitive) ecological niches and produce many offsprings that grow rapidly and have low chances of surviving to adulthood. Some examples of r-strategists include amphibians, fish, small mammals, etc. Conversely, K-selected species have more stable populations and produce a low amount of offspring (e.g., large mammals such as elephants).

Wants are often supplemented for the poor in a capitalist society
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In a capitalist society, the poor make up the working class that is exploited through their work, generating income and profits for businessmen and tycoons, who continue to get rich and have their needs and desires completed and complemented by the work that the poor perform.

With this, we can confirm that within the capitalist society, wants are often supplemented for the poor, but only the wants of the rich and powerful, the wants of the poor end up being suppressed and often left aside.
