Answer;

-Simple squamous epithelium

Explanation;

-Simple squamous epithelium is the single layer of thin, flat cells that line body surfaces which are not exposed substantially abrasive forces. The primary function of the columnar cell is that secretion and absorption simple squamous epithelium a single layer flat scale shaped cells.

-Simple squamous epithelium lines the air sacs, or alveoli, of the lungs. The alveoli are sites where air is exchanged in the lungs. Simple squamous epithelial cells in the alveoli allow oxygen from the air to enter the blood in the capillaries of the lung.

Which of the following is true of anabolic reactions? View Available Hint(s) Which of the following is true of anabolic reaction
puteri [66]

Answer:

Anabolic reactions use ATP and small substrates as building blocks to synthesize larger molecules.

Explanation:

Anabolic reactions are part of metabolic pathways that occur inside the living cells. Anabolic reactions always form complex molecules from simpler substances. The formation of glucose from relatively simpler CO2 and H2O during the Calvin cycle is an example of the anabolic pathway. During anabolic pathways, the metabolic energy of ATP hydrolysis drives the endergonic reactions. Therefore, anabolic reactions consume ATP. Calvin cycle uses the ATP produced during light reactions of photosynthesis.

What kind of channels are located in the input region?
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B ( ligand gated channels opened by neurotransmitter molecules).

Explanation:

Input region or postsynaptic region or dendrite is the site of neuron cell which receives the impulse from the pre-synaptic neuron at the synaptic junction.

The cell membrane of the dendrite is embedded with ligand-gated channels which opens up in response to the ligand (neurotransmitters) produced by the neurotransmitter vesicle of axon or output region of neuron.

The neuromuscular junction is such a case where acetylcholine receptors present in the dendrite opens in the presence of acetylcholine.

Thus, option B ( ligand-gated channels opened by neurotransmitter molecules) is the correct option.

You cross two red griffins with blue eyes and produce offspring that are: red with blue eyes, red with green eyes, white with bl
sergejj [24]

Answer:

The reason for the offspring to present these genotypes is that during the formation of the gametes, the alleles separate and are inherited independently, therefore they can generate several different phenotypic combinations.

Explanation:

In order for an offspring to present very different phenotypes, as shown in the question above, it is necessary that the two red griffins with blue eyes that were crossed are heterozygous. Thus it will be possible for the offspring to present a wide variety of phenotype, according to Mendel's second law.

Mendel's second law is called the Law of segregation. This law explains that the alleles (which determine the characteristics of individuals) are separated in the formation of gametes and inherited by the offspring of a cross independently, and can generate different combinations of phenotypes, when the parents of a cross are heterozygous.
