Answer:
The first thing to look at would be type of symmetry the organism exhibits. If it is asymmetrical then it would be a sponge and the discovery could stop right there. If not, other characteristics need to be investigated.
Knowing the type of body cavity this organism has would be helpful.
It would also be beneficial to know what type of skeleton (endo or exo) this organism has and what its appendages look like.
Finally, the type of digestive tract and the presence or absence of a head would help to determine what this creature is.
No, since it is an island separate from the mainland Ecuador and has been uniquely isolated over the past several hundred thousand years, the species on the Galapagos Islands have had time to evolve differently and separately than those in Ecuador, leading to many different, diverse species on the Galapagos that don't exist in Ecuador
Answer:
answer is d) all of these choices are correct.
Answer: Based on the information, the person DOES NOT have lactose intolerance because glucose levels significantly increases in normal individuals after a lactose rich meal.
Explanation:
Lactose is a disaccharide carbohydrate which when taken (found mostly in diary products) is hydrolyzed by lactase into its monomers, which are then absorbed into the blood. The hydrolysis of lactose gives glucose and galactose which is carried out by the digestive enzyme lactase. Deficiency of the lactase enzyme gives rise to a disorder known as LACTOSE INTOLERANCE.
The diagnosis of lactose intolerance or lactase deficiency can be confirmed by measuring the plasma glucose concentrations, as in glucose tolerance test, after giving an oral load of lactose rich solution. If the disaccharide (lactose) cannot be hydrolysed, the constituent monosaccharides cannot be absorbed and the concentrations of plasma glucose rise VERY little.
But the fasting blood glucose done after 2 hours of drinking a lactose rich solution showed a typical rise in blood glucose levels which were 80, 90, 100, 110 and 120 mg/ dL tested for every 30 minutes. This indicates that the individual does not have lactose intolerance because the glucose gotten from hydrolysed lactose was absorbed and cause a significant rise in blood levels.
