Answer:

Homologous structures provide evidence for common ancestry, while analogous structures show that similar selective pressures can produce similar adaptations (beneficial features). Similarities and differences among biological molecules

There are multiple ways you can tell

you can look at the bone structure of an organism and see if it's homolougous

The patient is receiving succinylcholine or commercially called anectine.
Succinylcholine is a medication often used in the context of general anaesthesia and its main effect is general paralysis. The drug's mechanism of action includes the inhibition of the acetylcholine's action on skeletal muscles. This inhibition is caused by the binding of the drug on the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and the depolarization of the muscle cell.

Answer:

A. Estradiol

Explanation:

Estradiol, which is also referred to as 17 beta-estradiol, is an estrogen steroid hormone. This form of estrogen is one of the major female sex hormone that plays major role in the female reproductive system such as regulation of the estrous and menstrual cycle. It also helps in regulating body metabolism.

Reduction in the level of Estradiol is one of the problems common in women approaching menopause. Optimal level of estradiol in the body helps improve fertility in the body as symptoms such as such as vaginal dryness, burning, itching that are associated with menopause are reduced to the barest minimum.

The supplement taken by Priya in order to thin the mucus and allow sperm to get through the mucus to the uterus most likely works to benefit the body by increasing <em>estradiol.</em>

Answer:

The concentration gradient is the driving force.

Explanation:

Passive transport of substance occurs when they are moved from the region of their higher concentration to that of their lower concentration. The concentration gradient is the difference in the concentration of substances between two regions or across the membrane. The concentration gradient of substances drives their passive movement. The passive movement of substances does not use metabolic energy. Simple diffusion and facilitated diffusion are two examples of this transport.

The respiratory system is a collection of organs involved in carrying out gas exchange in your body. Deep in the lungs, tiny sacs called alveoli take in oxygen from the atmosphere and release carbon dioxide.
