The correct answer is: D) Lymph transport depends on the movement of adjacent tissues, such as skeletal muscles.
The lymphatic system is an open system which primarily consists of lymphatic vessels, (similar to the circulatory system's veins and capillaries) interrupted by lymph nodes, where the lymph is filtered. Since there is no central pump in lymphatic system (like heart in circulatory system) lymph transport, is slow and sporadic. Lymph movement occurs due to:
• peristalsis (contraction and relaxation of smooth muscle tissue),
• valves,
• contraction of adjacent skeletal muscle and
• arterial pulsation.
<h2>Previously understood similarities that seemed to connect slime molds and fungi are now considered to be examples of convergent evolution</h2>
Explanation:
- Convergent evolution is an evolutionary process where unrelated monophyletic organisms independently develop or evolve similar characteristic traits due to the need to adapting to similar conditions or ecological or environmental necessity.
- The slime molds are subsets or part of amoebozoans but have certain morphological features similar to that of fungi, this type of evolutionary behavior is called convergent evolution.
- Under stressful conditions, slime molds produce and develop spore-generating fruity bodies like fungi, which is a convergent evolutionary change.
Answer: The offspring contain one one set of chromosome from the mother and one from the father.
Explanation: During sexual reproduction, when the egg and sperm meet, the sperm contains 23 chromosomes and the egg also contains 23 chromosomes. Together the chromosomes combine, accounting for the genetic information in the offspring.
Answer:
B. As new rocks are formed along mid-ocean ridges, older rocks are pushed down deep into the Earth into ocean trenches.
<h2>
Why is the Earth not getting larger if the sea floor is slowly spreading?</h2>
Mainly due to the Atlantic experiencing seabed expansion. The sea bottom is subducting, or moving underground, in the Pacific. This is how the Earth's tectonic plates and geological activities function. The top side of the mantle travels to the bottom at one end and to the top at the other, similar to a conveyor belt. This explains why there are volcanoes, why continents drift, and why our planet's surface is continually changing over the span of millions of years.
Therefore, the planet is not getting bigger because its surface is constantly recycling itself.
Answer:
Greeting's
Explanation:
The impact of science on society started to become extremely visible after the industrial Revolution in the 8th century. The most significant impact of science on society is in specific sectors, such as information, communication, physical sciences and energy.
