Answer:

The correct answer is option A) "the environment that they lived in remained the same, and they were well-adapted to it".

Explanation:

One of the basis of evolution is that species that face new environmental conditions tend to develop new traits to survive. The opposite applies to species that have lived in constant environmental conditions, these species are usually well-adapted and have changed very little over long periods of geologic time. Some species of tortoises are examples of animals that had changed very little in their evolutionary history. The hard shells of tortoises is an ancient adaptation that help them to survive in constant environmental conditions.

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

5. under aerobic conditions most of the pyruvate generated as a result of glycolysis is oxidized by the citric acid cycle rather than reduced to lactate.

Explanation:

The contraction of muscles occurs in the presence of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) because ATP supplies the muscles with the energy they require for contraction.

Muscles can undergo contraction Aerobically ( in the presence of oxygen) or Anaerobically ( in the absence of oxygen).

When a muscle is stimulated to contract aerobically, less lactic acid is formed than when it contracts anaerobically because under aerobic conditions most of the pyruvate generated as a result of glycolysis is oxidized by the citric acid cycle rather than reduced to lactate.

When a person drinks alcohol, the rate of urination increases. This suggest that antidiuretic hormone (ADH) may be affected by a

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

d. alcohol inhibits the release of ADH

Explanation:

Alcohol play an opposite role in water reabsorption. ADH is made in supraoptic nuclues of hypothalamus and transfers fby neuron to posterior pituatry where it gets stored and secreted. Alcohol stops the release of ADH from posterior pituatry which decreases the serum level of ADH. As the ADH level lowers it wont be able to reabsorb water from the distal/collecting tubules of kidneys leading to increase in urine volume and urination.
