Because the Epiglottis covers the Larynx
Choice C is most likely to be the right answer!
The surface of the early Earth is often described as hellish by scientists. The high temperature is primarily attributed to the high levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the molten rock on the surface of the planet. However, these two aren't the only factors in play.
Another factor that contributed to the extremely high temperature of the early earth is radioactivity. Radioactive decay of the isotopes found underground plus the left over heat from the formation of our planet produced high levels of radiogenic heat.
There's also the kinetic energy from falling asteroids and meteorites. Massive amounts of energy in the form of heat and sound is produced when asteroids and meteorites hit the Earth. Also, the pressure waves that travel radially outwards the center of the impact is similar to the impact of an atom bomb. As such, dust particles envelop the atmosphere, trapping the heat from the impact.
The last factor is the gravitational contraction, it contributed to the hellish temperature of primordial Earth because the energy generated from such event is enough to trigger hydrogen fusion.
Explanation:
The endomembrane system (endo- = “within”) is a group of membranes and organelles in eukaryotic cells that works together to modify, package, and transport lipids and proteins. It includes a variety of organelles, such as the nuclear envelope and lysosomes, which you may already know, and the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus, which we will cover shortly.
Although it's not technically inside the cell, the plasma membrane is also part of the endomembrane system. As we'll see, the plasma membrane interacts with the other endomembrane organelles, and it's the site where secreted proteins (like the pancreatic enzymes in the intro) are exported. Important note: the endomembrane system does not include mitochondria, chloroplasts, or peroxisomes.
Let's take a closer look at the different parts of the endomembrane system and how they function in the shipping of proteins and lipids.
