By using universal terms and anatomical position when identifying human body parts, there is very little room for error or confusion as to which part you are referring.
Answer:
The correct answer is "is drained by an efferent arteriole".
Explanation:
The missing options of this question are:
A) has a basement membrane
B) is impermeable to most substances
C) is drained by an efferent arteriole
D) has a blood pressure much lower than other organ systems
The correct answer is option C) "is drained by an efferent arteriole".
The glomerulus are a network of small blood vessels that are specialized to function within the kidneys. The role of the glomerulus is to filter plasma and being one of the steps of water absorption in the kidneys. The glomerulus differs from other capillaries in the body in that it is drained by an efferent arteriole, which carry the blood that has already filtered by the glomerulus.

Answer:
THE GREAT SPERM RACE:
A sperm's race to fertilize an egg is not so easy. Out of about 250 million sperm ejaculated into the human vagina during intercourse, not more than one in a hundred will survive the Great race to the end due to the hurdles it has to face in the hostile, ACIDIC CHAMBER to the cervix (it has hundreds of tiny branching tunnels that can trap, crush and slowly kill sperm).
If ovulation is not occurring soon the sperm will "drown in a thick flow of cervical mucus
Answer:
A. diploid and C. somatic
Explanation:
Humans are diploid organisms and have 23 pair of chromosomes i.e. in total humans have 46 chromosomes.
There are 2 types of cells in humans (1) somatic cells and (2) germ cells.
Somatic cells are normal body cells which are diploid and have all 23 pairs of chromosomes. But, germ cells are special type of cells which are produced by gonads (sex organs). Germ cells are also known as gametes. In females, ovary is the sex organ which produces germ cells named as egg cells while in males testes is the sex organ which produces germ cells named as sperms. Germ cells (egg and sperm) are haploid cells which fuse to form a zygote which is the first cell of next generation. The process of fusion of egg and sperm is known as fertilization which is responsible for restoring diploidy in the progeny which receives half the genetic material from female parent and half the genetic material from male parent.
Answer:
The first genetic code is used to determine the nucleotide triplets that code for amino acids.
Explanation:
The second genetic code is used by the amino acid synthetase in order to determine whether the correct tRNA is being used for it's corresponding amino acid.
