Answer: A cell is defined as the smallest functional units of the body
Explanation:
These cells are grouped together to form tissues, each of which has a specialised function, example blood, muscles, bone. Different tissues are grouped together to form organs with a special function. For example heart is an organ made up of muscles tissue, connective tissue, nervous tissue and vascular tissue. These tissues work in a coordinated manner and enable the heart to carry out the broader function of pumping blood continuously.
While organs are grouped together to form systems, each of which performs a particular function that maintains the body Internal environment and contribute to the health of the individual. For example the digestive system is responsible for taking in, digesting and absorbing food which involves a number of organs, including the stomach and intestines.
Therefore the statement that 'organs are large structures that keeps us alive" is a correct claim.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
B.introduced species
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>Animals become extinct for a number of reasons. Currently many animals are endangered or have become extinct due to human activities or human influence.</u></em>
- Extinctions may be caused by reasons;<em><u> such as pollution; loss of habitat due to human activities such as agriculture, introduced species, hunting and poaching for meat and other animal products such as feathers, horns and skins, and also over-harvesting among other influences.</u></em>
- In this question; <em><u>Introduced species occupies the largest percentage, that is 39%, from the pie chart (Attached).</u></em>
- Hunting and poaching; 23 %, Habitat loss; 26%, and Others; 2%.

Answer:
Acorns need the right soil conditions to germinate and sprout. Most germination of trees will begin during the early spring season. Given these conditions, the acorn will start to germinate and grow a taproot that pushes deep into the surrounding soil.
Answer:
g. A cell model consisting of a circle containing four vertical pairs of lines attached at the middle, stacked in two rows of two.
Explanation:
In Metaphase I of the cells, homologous chromosome pairs are lined up next to each other which is defined as synapsis. Each pair of two chromosomes (bivalents) consists of four chromatids in total are positioned on the metaphase plate.
Metaphase I occurs when tetrads of chromosomes are lined up along the equator of the spindle. Spindle fibres are attached to the centromere region of each homologous chromosome pair. These homologous chromosomes consist of the matching alleles originating from mother and father.
In Metaphase I, meiotic recombination (''crossing over'') happens. Meiotic recombination means there is a genetic shuffling of the attributes of both parents. A result is a large number of possible genetic combinations. It is estimated that there is a 50-50 chance for the daughter cells to receive or mother's or father's homologous for each chromosome. In an organism with 2 sets of chromosomes, there are 4 ways in which the chromosomes may be arranged. This is resulting in differences in the chromosomal distribution in daughter cells after meiosis I.
