Answer:

<h2>A </h2>

Explanation:

1. A channel between two adjacent cells in known as an intercellular cleft.

2. And through these channels many molecules  can easily pass between cells.

3. Importance of Intercellular clefts:

i) It is very important in transportation of fluids and small solutes.  

ii) It contains gap junctions, tight junctions, desmosomes, and adheren proteins and these junctions help in regulate cell communication by signal transduction, surface receptors, or a chemogradient.

<h2>a) is the correct option </h2>

Explanation:

  • Capillaries are small exchange vessels (6-10 μ) composed of highly attenuated (very thin) endothelial cells surrounded by basement membrane − no smooth muscle
  • There are three structural classifications:
  • Continuous (found in muscle, skin, lung, central nervous system) − basement membrane is continuous and intercellular clefts (between adjacent endothelial cells) are tight (i.e., have tight junctions); these capillaries have the lowest permeability
  • Fenestrated (found in exocrine glands, renal glomeruli, intestinal mucosa) − perforations (fenestrae) in endothelium result in relatively high permeability
  • Discontinuous (found in liver, spleen, bone marrow) − large intercellular gaps and gaps in basement membrane result in extremely high permeability
  • Large surface area and relatively high permeability (especially at intercellular clefts) to fluid and macromolecules make capillaries the primary site of exchange for fluid, electrolytes, gases, and macromolecules

In which phase of meiosis will sister chromatids separate and move to opposite end of the cell
yawa3891 [41]
The Telophase 2 is the fourth step or process during Meiosis (cell division). During Telophase 2, a nuclear envelope forms around each set of new chromosomes. In this stage, cytokinesis occurs, which is responsible for producing four daughter cells each with a haploid set of chromosomes. During the crossing-over phase some chromosomes are observed to have segments that have recombined with the original parent chromosomes.  
<span>
When the phase is over, the two cells are now finally separated and their nuclear membranes are fully formed causing the meiosis cell division to be completed.</span>

Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer : The correct option is, U

Explanation :

As we know that there are four states of matter which are solid, liquid, gas and plasma.

Solid state : In this state, the molecules are arranged in regular and repeating pattern. The molecules are closely packed that means they are fixed and vibrate in place but they can not move from one place to another.

For example : Copper

Liquid state : In this state, the molecules are present in random and irregular pattern. The molecules are closely packed but they can move from one place to another.

For example : water

Gaseous state : In this state, the molecules are present in irregular pattern. The molecules are not closely packed and they can move freely from one place to another and spread out.

For example : Helium gas

Plasma state : In this state, the stars, atoms lose their electrons at very high temperature. The mixture of electrons and nuclei that result is the plasma state of matter.

For example : Sun

In the given incomplete table,

T = solid state

W = example : copper

U = gaseous state

X = example : water

V = plasma state

Hence, the gas would be placed in 'U' box.
