Answer:

Certian molecules in the scorpians cuticle are what glow. The exoskeleton absorbs the longer wavelengths of the uv light and emit the light in  blue-green wavelengths which makes it glow.

This glow helps protect scorpians from sunlight, and helps them find each other.

Answer:

Well, something in the scorpions' exoskeleton causes them to glow. The fluorescence makes their bodies more sensitive to light, so it's easier to find a shady hiding spot to survive in.

"Bt maize"
Maurinko [17]

The correct is option (C) includes bacterial genes that produce a toxin that reduces damage from insect pests.

Due to advancements in plant biology, some plant species can now incorporate unique traits that are typically not found in their species. New and improved plant strains can be created using plant biotechnology. This technology is heavily utilized to advance agriculture.

A particular crystalline insecticidal protein is created by combining a specific gene sequence from the bacteria Bacillus thuringiensis with plants. Bt plant is a common name for these transgenic plants. One such transgenic plant that protects transgenic maize from damaging insects and pests is bt maize.

Which type of epithelium lines the inferior portions of the pharynx?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

The type of epithelium that lines the inferior portions of the pharynx is stratified squamous epithelium.

Explanation:

The pharynx is a structure made up of muscles and mucous membranes -like many internal organs- that is part of the respiratory system and is an intermediate step in the digestive tract.

This structure has two portions:

  • <em>Upper or nasopharynx </em>
  • <em>Lower, or oropharynx, in contact with the airways. </em>

Some even propose that the borderline surface between the pharynx and larynx can be called the laryngopharynx, due to its tissue structure.

The lower portion of the pharynx is covered by a squamous stratified epithelium, the inner layers of which rest on a basal lamina. The more superficial layers provide protection to the interior of the pharynx against friction, in addition to remaining lubricated by mucous secretion at that level.
