The animal Darwin is describing is a tortoise. In the reading, there are quotes that imply that it is a tortoise such as:

“it was quietly pacing along”

“it would draw in its head and legs”

“I frequently got on their backs, and then giving a few raps on the hinder part of their shells...”

The diagram below shows the movement of substances A and B into a cell:
Grace [21]

Answer:

C. ATP is required to move substance A into the cell.

Explanation:

As the model shows a cell with the movement of substances A and B, so the correct statement following the model is "ATP is required to move substance A into the cell".

This is so because ATP is required by a cell to move the substance such as ions across a membrane against a concentration and at the same time another substance moves out of the cell by the process called diffusion.

<u>As in the model, we can see substance A is moving in the cell while B is moving out of the cell (distance between cell membrane and substance B is more).</u>

Hence, the correct answer is "C. ATP is required to move substance A into the cell."

Which statements describe the movement of blood through the heart? Check all that apply. 
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

The correct answer would be Atria push blood into the ventricles and Ventricles push blood out of the heart.

In humans, four chambered heart is present with two atria and two ventricles.

Deoxygenated blood from all over the body is passed into the right atrium through vena cava (superior and inferior).

Simultaneously, oxygenated blood from the lungs is passed into the left atrium of the heart with the help of pulmonary vein.

Both the atria contract at the same time to drain their blood into respective ventricles.

The ventricles undergo relaxation while receiving blood.

The valves present between the atria and ventricles (tricuspid and bicuspid valve) ensures that the blood flows in one way direction only. They shut down as the ventricles contract and produce the sound "lub".

The ventricles contract simultaneously to pump blood out of the heart. The right ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood into pulmonary artery which takes the blood to the lungs for oxygenation.

The left ventricle passes the oxygenated blood through aorta to all the parts of the body.

The pulmonary and aortic valves prevent the back flow of blood and shut at the same time which creates second sound called as "dub".

How many alleles must be present in order for a trait to show up in the offspring?
Thepotemich [5.8K]
The characteristics or features that an organism has, such as eye color, skin color, hair color, tall or short is called a trait. In order for a trait to show up in the offspring, there should be two alleles present. One coming from the father, and the other from the mother. When fertilization occurs, the new offspring will have two alleles for every trait. The combination one has (coming from the father and from the mother) is called genotype. The two matching alleles is called homozygous while the two different alleles is called heterozygous. The allele that is expressed in heterozygous individuals is the dominant allele, while the allele that is not expressed is the recessive allele. The traits that are expressed make up you phenotype.
