The correct answer is option A.

Capillaries surrounding the brain have no pores and are surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells.

Explanation:

Capillaries surrounding the brain have no pores and are surrounded by membranes of astrocyte cells because

Capillaries are tiny blood vessels in the circulatory system that connect aterioles to venules. They are the most abundant or they are much blood vessels. They can penetrate the tissues of the body which allow passage of food nutrients, oxygen in the body thereby allowing exchange of nutrients and oxygen between the body tissues and the blood.

Why is gene regulation necessary in the development of multicellular organisms??
irga5000 [103]
<span>It's important to regulate genes so it does nothing unnecessarily. This will help it save energy. Different specialized cells and factors control the making of genes and the way they do it depends on its environment. The regulators can be turned on and off depending on why and how t needs and uses things around it. There are also necessary factors that allow gene regulation. E Coli must regulate the lac gene so it is used properly. If there is lactose around it, it must be switched on to process it. If there is no lactose around, then it must turn off to save energy because there is no reason for it to be in use.</span>

Darya [45]

Whales use their lower jawbone to the middle ear. whereby they can ear clearly while they are in the water. Human ears and dolphins ears they work the same . They receive sound directly from the air.

In similar way dolphins and human ears are placed in basic anatomical location which is same as on the head. Without a medium hearing is not possible.

The medium sound for human is air. Sound travels 343 meters per second in air and 147 meters per second in water. The most effective way of transmitting sound waves is through water.

We can say that the sound will be fast to travel in medium if the molecules are closer.
