Answer:

The progenitor of the platelets is called a megakaryocyte.

Explanation:

Platelets are blood structures, which participate in the process of blood clotting. They are also known as thrombocytes.

The process of platelet formation is called thrombopoiesis, and it consists of

  1. <em>Formation of megakaryoblasts from the hemocyte, a hematopoietic precursor cell. </em>
  2. <em>Megakaryoblasts produce </em><em>megakaryocytes</em><em>. </em>
  3. <em>Megakaryocytes are precursors to platelet</em><em>s. </em>

Each megakaryocyte must fragment to form the thrombocytes or platelets.

A faculty member asks a student to identify the appropriate term for the movement of a solute from an area of greater to lesser
alexandr1967 [171]

In medical sciences, the movement of solid particles (solute) from an area of greater to lesser concentration is called by DIFFUSION.

A random passage of particles always occurs from a place of higher concentration to another of lower concentration. This happens until the distribution of the particles is uniform. From the moment the equilibrium is reached, as exchanges of substances between two media become proportional.

The passage of substances through cell membranes involves several mechanisms, among which we can mention:

✴ Passive transport (no loss of energy)

➡ Osmosis;

➡ Simple diffusion;

➡ Facilitated diffusion.

✴ Active transport (with loss of energy)

➡ Sodium and potassium pump

✴ Endocytosis and exocytosis

➡ Pinocytosis

➡ Phagocytosis

SashulF [63]

Answer:

inhaled poison

Explanation:

Grimaldi was inside the bathroom when Jayla sprayed the aerosol bleach cleanser. The molecules of this cleanser spread quickly through the surroundings. Since the cat was inside the bathroom, <u>it could have inhaled the bleach and the poison reached its lungs.</u> This caused symptoms of <u>wheezing</u>, which is<em> respiratory</em> in nature, and shaking (seizures). Inhaling a poison leads to <em>difficult in breathing </em>among animals because it can cause the lungs to be inflamed.
