Answer: erythrocytes

Erythrocytes also called as red blood cells. These are the cells which does not possess nucleus. They exhibit a pigment named as hemoglobin, the heme  component of the hemoglobin has affinity for oxygen. It carries oxygen to all the parts of the body.

Initially the red blood cells are produced in the bone marrow with a nucleus. These red blood cells undergoes a process called as enucleation, this results in the removal of the nucleus from the cells. This process occurs when the cells attains maturity. It is a kind of adaptation that occurs in the red blood cells.  It allows red blood cells to carry more hemoglobin, thereby carrying more oxygen molecules. It allows the cells to have distinctively bi- concave shape, which facilitates diffusion of carbon dioxide and oxygen. This could not be possible in the presence of nucleus.

there are multiple chickens and rabbits in a cage there are 72 heads and 200 feet inside of the cage how many chickens are in th
schepotkina [342]
The answer is 44 chickens and 28 rabbits.

We have a system of two equations.
x - the number of rabbits
y - the number of chickens

Both chicken and rabbit have only 1 head, so the first equation is: x + y = 72.
Since rabbits have 4 legs and chickens 2 legs, the second equation is: 4x + 2y = 200.

Now, let's solve the system:
x + y = 72
4x + 2y = 200
___________
y = 72 - x
⇒ 4x + 2 · (72 - x) = 200
4x + 2 · 72 - 2 · x = 200
4x + 144 - 2x = 200
2x + 144 = 200
2x = 200 - 144
2x = 56
⇒ x = 56 ÷ 2 = 28
So, there are 28 rabbits.

Since
y = 72 - x = 72 - 28 = 44,
there are 44 chickens.

podryga [215]

Answer:

C) they lack lignified vascular tissue. ( Since they do not have vascular tissues, they are not able to develop vertically like the trees we know.)

Explanation:

A) Plants do not have "sperm". They have sporophytes or gametophytes.

B) No specific parasitic bacteria of bryophytes are known.

D) In fact, they have. Although they require water for their reproduction, some species of bryophytes are found in deserts.

E) Rhizoids are not weak, otherwise they would not have the ability to keep bryophytes attached (mosses).
