Answer:
Since the beginning of life of the first multicellular organisms, the preservation of a physiologic milieu for every cell in the organism has been a critical requirement. A particular range of osmolality of the body fluids is essential for the maintenance of cell volume. In humans the stability of electrolyte concentrations and their resulting osmolality in the body fluids is the consequence of complex interactions between cell membrane functions, hormonal control, thirst, and controlled kidney excretion of fluid and solutes. Knowledge of these mechanisms, of the biochemical principles of osmolality, and of the relevant situations occurring in disease is of importance to every physician. This comprehensive review summarizes the major facts on osmolality, its relation to electrolytes and other solutes, and its relevance in physiology and in disease states with a focus on dialysis-related considerations.
In gilled mushrooms, gills are used to maximize spore production. Gills of some mushrooms are folded and crowded to obtain maximum spore production. Other gills, spread towards the outer cap which gives way to new gill growth in between gills which is called partial gill. Some of the mushrooms grow gills in layers too.
Answer:
(A). Sexual reproduction increases genetic diversity, and asexual reproduction can be more rapid.
Explanation:
Sexual reproduction is a mode of reproduction, which involves formation of new organisms by combination of genetic information from two organisms of different sexes. The major advantage of sexual reproduction is to develop genetic diversity as new organism is produced by mixing up genetic material of both the parents.
On the other hand, asexual reproduction involves formation of new organisms from a single parent having identical genetic makeup as present in parent cell. One of the major advantage of asexual reproduction is to produce high number of offspring in less time as it is more rapid than sexual reproduction.
Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
1) true
2)false
3)true
4)false
5)false
6)false
7)false
