The wind is just strong enough to move the sand grains which were sorted by size by the wind. Heavier grains were left in place where as smaller grains were carried away. These grains kept moving till they were concentrated in one place usually up a hill. The grains climb the flat slope on the windward side and then fall off the steep side. The dunes may migrate slowly as this process continues, the grains at the upwind side climb the dune with the help of the wind and then fall down the downwind side.

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

Although humans and animals (technically “non-human animals”) may look different, at a physiological and anatomical level they are remarkably similar. Animals, from mice to monkeys, have the same organs (heart, lungs, brain etc.) and organ systems (respiratory, cardiovascular, nervous systems etc.)

Humans have a heart with two atria and two ventricles that pushes blood in one direction. Some animals have hearts similar to humans but, other animals have only one atrium and one ventricle or a cardiovascular system that can push blood in two directions.

Memory for stimulus sequences distinguishes humans from other animals. Summary: Humans possess many cognitive abilities not seen in other animals, such as a full-blown language capacity as well as reasoning and planning abilities.

Which of the following pathways does NOT directly deliver materials to lysosomes? A. Exocytosis B. Phagocytosis C. Autophagy D.

Lelu [443]

Answer: Option A) Exocytosis

Explanation:

Unlike the other pathways mentioned, exocytosis involves the outward movement of outside the cells. This is vital in the removal of waste products generated within the cell.

Thus, exocytosis is the answer because it expels materials out of the cell, rather than deliver materials to lysosomes
