Function of leucocytes or simply - White Blood Corpuscles
Answer:
<em>The correct option is A) Reproductive assurance: any individual of the same species is a potential mate.</em>
Explanation:
A hermaphrodite can be described as an organism that is capable to produce gametes associated with both the male and female sexes. It has a complete or partial reproductive organ.
In the deep sea, biodiversity is scarce. There are limited amounts of organisms present. Hence, to have a reproductive assurance, the organisms present in the deep sea are mostly hermaphrodite. Hence, they will be able to mate with any organism of the same species.
Answer: All the statements of the question are correct.
Sickle cell disease is an autosomal recessive disorder that is characterized by formation of defective hemoglobin protein, which results in sickle shaped RBC ( red blood cell).
This disease is caused by mutation in the gene that is responsible for the protein hemoglobin ( which transport oxygen throughout body).
It is inherited by the offspring when both the mutated copy of genes ( one from each parent) are passed to him.
Carriers of the disease exhibit increased resistance to malarial parasites by controlling the level of free haem in the blood ( through enzyme heme oxygenase that produces a toxic carbon monoxide gas). The resistance thus developed, is a mutation.
Therefore, all the statements in the given question are correct.
Mitochondria is described as the power house of the cell, because it is the cell organelle that process the production of ATP, which is the energy source of the cell. Kreb's cycle occurs in the mitochondria, it is the process by which energy is generated inside the cell, leading to the production of ATP and carbon dioxide and water are given up as waste products.
These secondary compounds are primarily adaptations that is inhibit herbivory.
Option D is correct.
What is meant by herbivory?
Herbivory may be a form of consumption in which an organism principally eats autotrophs such as plants, algae and photosynthesizing bacteria. More generally, organisms that prey on autotrophs in general are known as primary consumers. Herbivory is typically limited to animals that eat plants
What is the herbivory effect?
Herbivory can affect the expansion form of plants by terminating shoot growth and initiating branching and by affecting shoot-to-root ratios. Changes in survival, productivity, and growth of individual plant species affect vegetation structure and community dynasty.
<h3>Why is herbivory important?</h3>
Herbivory can have substantial impacts on habitat health, the structure and variety of plant and soil invertebrate communities and the productivity of economically important crops. The positive impact of herbivory is widely debated within the scientific literature.
