DNA comprises the genetic makeup of every organism. It carries genetic information that is used by the organs in the body to determine what functions to carry out.


DNA cannot be used to see the nuclei of cells or absorb viruses. A person's personality cannot be determined from DNA.


The answer is D. to determine if people are related, as DNA between two people can be compared for similarities of code between the two.

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

Granulosa cells                          

Explanation:

Foliculogenesis is a dynamic and complex process through which the follicle goes through many stages of development in a short period (approximately 60 days in humans and some chimpanzees).

The stages classification is based on morphological changes such as follicular size or diameter, the number of follicular cell layers, etcetera. These classifications might vary among authors but could be denominated as:

  • Primordial follicle
  • Primary follicle
  • Secondary follicle and
  • De Graaf follicles (This is the one shown in the image)

Through each stage, there are certain modifications in the oocyte, follicular cells, and connective tissue. As the oocyte grows, the follicular cells might reach a size twice or three times bigger than the ones of the primordial follicles. Their shape also changes and they adopt an aspect of stratified epithelium. Their cytoplasm gets a granulous aspect, after what these cells receive the name of <u><em>granulous cells</em></u>. The De Graaf follicle characterizes for having a space named follicular antro that displaces the oocyte to one of the sides.    

The oocyte at this point gets surrounded by <u>zona pellucida</u> and <u>corona radiata </u>.    

The follicular antro (The highlighted structure) separates the oocyte from the externally located <u>granulosa cells</u> or follicular cells.

The energy an organism requires to transport materials and eliminate wastes is obtained directly from
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

ATP

Explanation:

ATP is regarded as 'root of energetics' for living organisms. So, the organisms utilizes ATP to transport material and eliminate wastes from the body. Not only these functions are carried out by ATP but also several others infact all energy requiring processes are carried out ATP. e.g. muscle movements, neurotransmission, heart beats and various chemical reactions in the body all are carried out with the help of ATP.

In animals ATP is produced from the breakdown of glucose in the cellular respiration, glucose is obtained from the diet we take in. In plants ATP is generated from the process of photosynthesis. The source of energy within ATP is phosphate bonds, the breakdown of one phosphate bond while conversion of ATP into ADP produces or releases 30.6 KJ/mole of energy.

Why is a person with type AB blood able to receive a blood transfusion from a donor with any of the major blood types (A, B, AB,
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

ABO blood grouping system is based on presence or absence of three types of antigen on red blood cells. A and B blood group have A and B antigens respectively. AB blood group has both A and B antigens. O blood group does not have any antigen.

A body with particular blood type will consider other blood group foreign ( because it has different antigen ) and produce antibodies against it. A person with blood type A can not be given B type blood because the antibodies in his body will destroy RBCs with B antigen which may even prove fatal.

AB blood type person can receive blood from both A and B blood groups because he has antigens for both of them so it will produce antibodies for neither of them. He can also receive O type blood because O blood does not have any antigen so it can be given to any person without incompatibility reaction.  

However, AB individual can only donate blood to AB individual because his blood cells have both A and B antigens. So, he can only donate blood to an individual who does not produce antibodies for both A and B blood groups and that would only be another AB blood type individual.

Which of the following statements is correct? a. Aldosterone is secreted in response to elevated levels of sodium in the blood.
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

b. Aldosterone promotes sodium reabsorption in the kidneys.

Explanation:

Once it is produced by the adrenal gland it stimulates the mineralocorticoid receptors on the distal tubule and collecting duct of the kidney's nephrons. This causes sodium reabsorption in the kidneys indirectly affecting water retention.
