Gas exchange that occurs at the level of the tissues is called. Select one: a. Pulmonary ventilation b. External respiration c.
Dmitry [639]

Answer: Gas exchange that occurs at the level of the tissues is called internal respiration. The correct option is C.

Explanation:

Respiration a process in living organisms involves the production of energy, with the intake of oxygen and the release of carbon dioxide from the oxidation of complex organic substances. There are about four types of respiration and these includes:

- Ventilation

- External respiration

- Internal respiration

- cellular respiration

In respiration, passive movement of gases by diffusion occurs between cell surfaces in a process called gas exchange. Without this process, oxygen cannot be taken into the cells and carbondioxide released. I hope this helps. Thanks.

Despite the human genome being significantly larger than the genome of bacteria such as E. Coli, it does not take a human cell s
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Rapidly and Accurately

Explanation:

As an example, eukaryotic human DNA replicates at a rate of 50 nucleotides per second.

Replication occurs so quickly because multiple polymerases<em>, or think: enzyme+polymer=polymerase,</em> can synthesize<em>, or combine or fuse,</em> two new strands at the same time by using each untwined strand from the original DNA double helix as a guide.

DNA replication is so much faster than bacteria replication because it's extremely difficult to replicate DNA accurately, as well as copying molecules that tightly complexed with histones in nucleosomes, which work together to form chromatin, which is the material that chromosomes are composed of, and it's further composed of protein (histones), DNA, and RNA.

Therefore, the reason for human cells taking significantly less time to replicate its genome is <u>accuracy</u>.

How does survival of the fittest help keep the ecosystem balanced
xz_007 [3.2K]

The former means those most fit, those with the best set of skills and features for the given environment, will live to pass on the said features in the offspring (with ants, for example, being incredibly fit and adaptable creatures). The latter suggests there is an objective way to measure the "meaningfulness" of each species and having only those most meaningful survive. But this differs from species to species - for a house cat, the great white shark is utterly meaningless.

 Also, the meaningful animal has no actual advantage over another to help him survive, whereas fittness is exactly that - it is the ability to survive, ability to pass on your genes.

 While I understand it may seem so in the case of domestic animals that the most meaningful to the human are those allowed to reproduce, it is actually the same law: those most adapted for human purpose (which, of course, in the given case means the most meaningful) ARE the fittest here in the human-controlled environment.
