Air masses tend to flow from areas of high air pressure to areas of low air pressure. Thus, winds blow away from high-pressure areas; wind blows towards low-pressure areas. Air masses also move vertically.

The disease osteoporosis often results from insufficient intake of dietary calcium salts. Of the three samples of bone you teste
Fittoniya [83]

The correct answer is the one that shows a bone having the most porous appearance inside.

Osteoporosis is a disease of the different types of bone tissue that make up bone ("cortical bone" and "trabecular bone").

It is a disease that is related to a decrease in the amount of bone tissue in the bones and / or an alteration of its structure: thinning of the cortex and bone trabeculae that become porous.

The cause is an imbalance between the deficit activity of osteoblasts and normal osteoclastic bone resorption.

Which kingdom contains heterotrophs with cell walls of chitin?
kirza4 [7]

It would not be plants, even though it has cell walls. They are not made of chitin. Plants are also not heterotrophic.

Fungi, however, decompose other matter, and have cell walls made of chitin. This would fit the description.

Compare and contrast sexual and asexual reporduction
makvit [3.9K]

Difference:

The biological process of sexual reproduction requires the input of genetic material from many people. When a flower self-pollinates, for example, the term "individual" might refer to gamete cells developing as a single physical or even genetic organism. I don't want to substitute the word "cell" for "person," either, as that would eliminate instances of acellular biologic entities that reproduce, like viruses. When a piece of a chromosome from one bacterium is injected into another, it recombines and reproduces there, with or without sporulation, which is one instance of what I consider sexual reproduction but which not all viewers would. My notion just requires some genetic material, even in the form of an episome, not gametes. Asexual phases are included in nearly all forms of reproduction, but I regard all of them to be a part of sexual reproduction when they take place throughout a life cycle that also contains an obligatory sexual phase. Brewer's yeast serves as an illustration of the distinction I make because either the diploid or haploid stage, which could be classified as a gametophyte or sporophyte, can be maintained through an infinite number of mitoses. As a result, I consider vegetative propagation to be asexual reproduction.

Now that you have the difference compare the similarties.
