Answer:

This is false as genes are transferred to a fetus from the reproductive cells(sperm, Egg cells)

Explanation:

This is because humans have 46 chromosomes, however this is comprised of the 23 chromosomes in each sperm and egg cells. This shows that genes are not transferred through the blood but by sperm and egg cells. Also genes and chromosomes are stored in the nucleus of cells, however red blood cells do not have a nucleus further showing that this is false.

What is natural selection ?
sergejj [24]
Natural selection is a theory developed by Charles Darwin. It is believed that animal species evolve by nature "selecting" the ones that are fit to live in specific environments. For example, if an animal lacks a trait that is needed for a certain environment, it is likely to die. The animals that have the needed traits are more likely to live and procreate, which will pass on the trait to its offspring. Hope this helped!

Describe how lymph nodes and organs help the immune system fight pathogens.
I am Lyosha [343]

The defense system of the human body is made up of entire organs and vessel systems like the lymph vessels, but also of individual cells and proteins. The inner and outer surfaces of the body are the first barriers against pathogens (germs). These surfaces include the skin and all mucous membranes, which form a kind of mechanical protective wall.

Several things support this protective wall:

<span><span>- The body’s own antibacterial substances can disable different pathogens from the environment at an early stage. A certain enzyme found in saliva, the airways and tear fluid destroys the cell walls of bacteria.
</span><span>
- Many pathogens that are breathed in get stuck to mucus in the bronchi and are then moved out of the airways by hair-like structures called cilia.
</span><span>
- Most pathogens that enter the body together with food are usually stopped by stomach acid.
</span><span>
- Normal flora, harmless bacteria that reside on the skin and many mucous membranes in the body, also help to protect the body.</span></span>

The cough and sneeze reflex can also help to remove pathogens.


Hope this helps (:

Which best describes how an organism’s niche is determined?
dusya [7]

The correct answer is that it is an organism's habitat and inherited traits that determine its niche.

The principle of competitive exclusion states that the two species cannot hold the similar niche in the same habitat. A niche of an organism is predicted by its habitat that is its physical surrounding. The inherited traits and adaptation enhances the organism's chances of survival, and it also predicts a niche of an organism.
