Answer:

Cells with similar structures and a common purpose that are organized form a tissue (option D).

Explanation:

Biological tissues are structures originated by the grouping of differentiated cells, which are organized and distributed in such a way that they can fulfill a function in a coordinated way. A characteristic of tissues is that all the cells that constitute them have the same embryonic origin.

An example of a tissue is nervous tissue, formed by neurons, specialized cells that when united form it and fulfill the same function.

The functions of cells are mainly multiplication, development and differentiation, in addition to their ability to group together to form tissues.

The other options are not correct because:

A. Organs are formed from differentiated tissue.

B and C. Digestion and circulation are functions that depend on the organs of the digestive and circulatory systems, respectively.

Why algae in the ocean can have a very high NPP and a very low amount of stored biomass

The algae in the ocean have a very high Net Primary Productivity (NPP) and a very low amount of store biomass. This is because THE GROWTH RATE OF ALGAE IN THE OCEAN IS HIGH. The store biomass is low because THE PRIMARY CONSUMERS FEED ON THESE ALGAE THUS LOWERING THE BIOMASS AMOUNT. The production of biomass is related to the NPP.

Describe two integumentary system mechanisms that help regulate body temperature.

Basile [38]

Answer:

dilation of vessels and sweating

Explanation:

The vast blood supply of the skin aids in temperature regulation: dilated vessels enable heat to escape, while constricted vessels retain heat. The blood supply of the skin regulates body temperature. The skin aids in the maintenance of homeostasis. Humidity has an effect on thermoregulation because it reduces perspiration evaporation and, as a result, heat loss.
