Answer:
b. giving birth to live young (viviparous)
Explanation:
Monotremes include duck-billed platypus and few other mammalian species that are oviparous. These mammalian species do not give birth to young ones, that is, they are not viviparous. Rather they lay eggs and are oviparous.
These species are also characterized by the absence of teeth. The primitive monotremes also exhibit external fertilization.
Examples of egg-laying mammals include anteaters or echidnas and the duck-billed platypus. The laid eggs are carried by females in an abdominal ouch to keep them warm.
I believe that elevated serum creatinine levels indicate a kidney disease
The fibrous skeleton of the heart
functions in all of the ways listed in the option, except causing direct spread
of electrical impulses from the atria to the ventricles. The fibrous skeleton
in fact supports proper coordination of atrial and ventricular contractions by
blocking direct spread of electrical impulses from atria to ventricles.
Answer:
The correct answer will be option-D
Explanation:
Pulmonary Surfactant is a complex substance produced by the pneumocytes epithelial II cells in the alveolar sac.
The surfactant is composed of the proteins and lipids which plays a role in keeping alveoli open by reducing the surface tension formed between the air and liquid.
The surfactant act by forming a monolayer surface film which helps reduce the surface tension.
Thus, option-D is the correct answer.
