Which characteristic of lymphatic capillaries is correct?

Biology
1 answer:
mylen [45]3 years ago
5 0
The correct answer is "they originate as pockets, rather than forming continuous tubes".
Lymphatic capillaries are very small vessels located between cells. Their function is to absorb and process extracellular fluid. They have very thin walls and larger diameter than blood capillaries. Another important characteristic is that they have closed ends, permitting the extracellular fluid to flow in but not out.

A man who has type B blood has children with a woman who has type A blood. A. If they are both heterozygous for this trait, pred
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

The possible blood types of their children are: type AB (iAiB), type A (iAi), type B (iBi), type O (ii)

Explanation:

Blood type in humans is controlled by a gene with multiple alleles. Alleles iA and iB are dominant over allele i but co-dominant. The following blood types are encoded by the following alleles:

Blood type AB - iAiB

Blood type A - iAiA or iAi

Blood type B - iBiB or iBi

Blood type O - ii

According to this question, a man who has type B blood has children with a woman who has type A blood. They are both heterozygous, meaning that the man's genotype is "iBi" while the woman's genotype is "iAi". Both parents will produce gametes as follows:

iBi = iB and i

iAi = iA and I

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following possible blood types are produced in the offsprings:

- type AB (iAiB)

- type A (iAi)

- type B (iBi)

- type O (ii)

The switch from mitosis to meiosis in spermatogenesis is regulated by _____ levels of _______ and this is induced by _________.
jenyasd209 [6]

The switch from mitosis to meiosis in spermatogenesis is regulated by Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) levels of Luteinizing hormone (LH) and this is induced by Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF).

<h3>How does FSH, LH and GDNF help in spermatogenesis?</h3>
  • The development and maintenance of spermatogenesis is dependent on the pituitary gonadotropins; FSH and LH.
  • FSH works on Sertoli cells and LH on Leydig cells through their receptors FSHR and LHR respectively.
  • Self-renewal and differentiation of the spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) is regulated by soluble factors produced by the somatic Sertoli cells. One of these is glial cell line–derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF).
