Biology
1 answer:

Answer:

c, sickle cell anemia

Explanation:

When you are conceived you (generally) receive one set of chromosomes from your mom and one from your dad.  Recessive diseases mean that you must receive 2 copies of the mutated gene (disease gene)  to express the disease (one from mom and one from dad).  Dominant means that you only need one copy of the mutated gene to express the disease.

Sickle cell anemia is a disease caused by a mutation in the hemoglobin-Beta gene found on chromosome 11.  The mutation is on an autosome  (not a sex chromosome).  You need two copies of the bad gene in order to express it.

Answer:

A. Increasing surface area to improve nutrient absorption between the digestive and the circulatory systems.

Explanation:

Our intestines, on the inside, are lined with the intestinal mucosa. This mucosa is not straightened, as it might seem macroscopically; it rather has this wavy appearance forming folds. Also, epithelial cells in this mucosal layer have lots of small finger-like extensions called the villi.

Folds and villi increase the contact surface between the nutrients in the lumen and mucosa, thus increasing the rate of absorption of these nutrients between the intestines and the blood vessels below the epithelium.
