I believe the correct answer is the pulmonary artery.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The pulmonary circulation starts from the pulmonary artery that receives blood from the right ventricle. The artery then take the blood to the lungs where oxygen is added and carbon dioxide is removed then taken back to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein, into the left ventricle and back to the tissues via the aorta.

<h2>Further Explanation:</h2>

Circulation is divided into systemic circulation and pulmonary circulation. Pulmonary circulation supplies the blood that has waste and carbon dioxide to the lungs where oxygen is added after carbon dioxide is removed. The blood from tissues is picked up by capillary bed in the superior region of the body that includes the neck, chest and head and supplied to the superior vena cava and the lower regions including the limbs, pelvic region and the abdomen are picked up by capillary beds and supplied to the inferior vena cava. Both these veins take the blood to the right atrium of the heart that then passes the blood to the right ventricles and the right ventricle pumps the blood to the pulmonary artery that is the only artery in the body that carries de-oxygenated blood. The pulmonary artery carries the blood and distributes it to capillaries in the lung tissues that then allow the diffusion of carbon dioxide into the alveoli of the lungs and then out of the body while oxygen is dissolved and diffused across the alveoli membrane into the waiting capillaries. The diffused blood with oxygen in the other bed of capillaries feeds the pulmonary vein. This vein takes the oxygenated blood away from the lungs into the left atrium that then pumps the blood into the left ventricle which supplies the whole of the body with oxygenated blood via the aorta that divides into several branches that supplies supply capillaries which in turn supply the tissues that need oxygenated blood.

Answer: The waste-filled blood, that contains carbon dioxide, is transported to the heart by the superior and inferior vena cava. It is then <u>pumped to the right atrium and then to the right ventriculum</u>. On its way to the pulmonary circulation, the blood is transported by the pulmonary arteries so it can be oxygenated. This process is called hematosis.

Komok [63]

Answer: first statement that Keratin is a protein in the cells of the epidermis that provides strength and waterproofing is correct

Explanation:

The outer layer of skin, the epidermis, provides waterproofing and serves as a barrier to infection.

The middle layer of skin, the dermis, contains blood vessels, nerves, and glands that are important for our skin’s function. The inner layer of the skin, the subcutis, contains fat that protects us from trauma. The cells in all of the layers except the stratum basale are called keratinocytes. A keratinocyte is a cell that manufactures and stores the protein keratin. Keratin is an intracellular fibrous protein that gives hair, nails, and skin their hardness and water-resistant properties.

Keratin is an important protein in the epidermis. Keratin has two main functions: to adhere cells to each other and to form a protective layer on the outside of the skin. In epithelial cells, keratin proteins inside the cell attach to proteins called desmosomes on the surface.
