Answer:

When  group of   tissues  are formed  from  a cell layer  of squamous cell,then the epithelium formed  is said to be simple squamous epithelium.These cells are  tightly packed together,to   form the lining of the cell surface.Thus they are in directs contact with the basement membrane underlying the cell structure.  Therefore,they act as selectively membrane structure for osmosis,diffusion,This explain their presence in the alveolar and kidney,where filtration  takes place

In  additions ,due to their  one cell layer thickness,they form the lining of fragile of delicate body cavities. e.g the alveolar in the lungs, lymphatic vessels,and inner lining of the wall of the heart.

Besides they also contain membrane proteins,which aids the control of substances across their walls  of tight junctions.Thus ions, molecules passages is regulated

What is the function of the phytoplankton in ocean ecosystems?--- A. producer B. consumer C. scavenger D. decomposer
Elodia [21]

The right answer is A. producer.

Phytoplankton are all cyanobacteria and microalgae (microscopic plants) present in surface waters and drifting with the currents. Unknown because invisible to the naked eye, phytoplankton is the lung of our planet. Thanks to photosynthesis, it produces more than half of the Earth's oxygen and consumes half of the carbon dioxide. Phytoplankton is essential for marine life because it is also at the base of the ocean food chain.

How many calories are in an average trick-or-treaters halloween stash?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

The number of calories on a Halloween stash depends on the type of candies and the number of units of each. If the stash contains 5 units of each of these candies: chocolate bars, taffies, lollypops, and candy corn the total number of calories is 1,650.

Calories are the most common unit used to define the energy a specific food gives to your body. For example, an apple has 52 calories, while a banana has 89 calories.

Considering this, in a Halloween stash the calories depend on two factors:

  • The types of candies or products
  • The units of each one

Let's suppose there are 5 units of each of the following candies:

  • Chocolate bars
  • Taffies
  • Lollypops
  • Candy corn

Let's now calculate the calories

  • Chocolate bars = 220 calories x 5 units =  1,100 calories
  • Taffies = 20 calories x 5 units = 100 calories
  • Lollypops = 83 calories x 5 units = 415 calories
  • Candy corn = 7 calories x 5 = 35 calories

Add all the previous results:

1,100 + 100 + 415 + 35 = 1,650 calories in total

fiasKO [112]
The answer to this question would be: Olive oil

In Mediterranean diet, you need to exchange the butter (since it contains unhealthy fat) with olive oil or canola oil. Saturated fat is also unhealthy so you need to exchange it. Lean meat is good but the consumption must be limited.
