Answer:

Choanocytes

Explanation:

Choanocytes are membranous flagellate cells lining the spongiocelium (central body cavity of <em>Porifera</em> kingdom animals) and other internal vibrating chambers of sponges.

The movement of its <u>flagella</u> creates the water stream that brings nutrients and gases. The nutrients are filtered by the choanocyte, which is not a solid structure, but rather a set of small erect rods separated by spaces.

Any organic particle or plant microorganism trapped in the choanocyte is routed down toward the cell body and endocyted, with intracellular digestion occurring in digestive vacuoles.

Answer:

1. d. changes in the methylation patterns of <em>loci</em> involved in growth and metabolic disease

2. b. differences in the expression of metabolic genes

d. changes in histone acetylation patterns

Explanation:

Epigenetics refers to the study of heritable changes in gene expression which are not dependent on DNA sequence. Epigenetic mechanisms involve DNA methylation, histone modifications (acetylation, methylation, phosphorylation, etc) and regulatory non-coding RNA (ncRNA) pathways. These epigenetic mechanisms work together and mutually reinforce each other in order to modulate gene expression (either by activating or suppressing gene expression). In consequence, transcriptome data (e.g., genes differentially expressed in particular tissues/cells or stages of development) is an important piece of evidence indicating the existence of epigenetic modulation.

Most coastal areas on Earth experience two high tides and two low tides every lunar day. What is a lunar day? Our days on Earth
ahrayia [7]

The correct answer is - C) 5:35 PM Friday.

The low tides occur twice in a lunar day, thus they are diurnal. The low tides appear when the Moon is between that point of the planet and the opposite of that point of the planet, thus in between, which is happening twice, on opposite parts of the planet.

Since the lunar day lasts for 24 h 50 m, we should just divide it in two, thus get 12 h 25 m. Than we should add the 12 h 25 to the time when one of the low tides appeared, which is 5:10 AM, so we will get 5:35 PM.

The low tides appear because the Moon is pulling the water upwards with its gravitational pull above the place where it is, so the side parts of the planet have their waters dragged away,thus resulting in the retreating of the water, known as low tide.
