Answer:

So one of the activities that I did today was singing.

Explanation:

1. Control of the Vocal Cords

We have come to understand that among Primates, only humans have the ability to adjust the pitch of their vocal cords so that they are able to make certain musical signature or notes in a high pitch or put a stress on a word or sentence in order to give it a different context or meaning.

Neuroscientists have uncovered the fact that there is an area in the frontal lobe that is responsible for a human beings ability to control his vocal cords.  

This region of the frontal lobe is called the bilateral dorsal laryngeal motor cortex (dLMC).

It is situated between the regions controlling the hand and mouth.

2. Whilst we are singing we are also listening to ourselves. (Auditory and Language Function)

The part of the brain that is responsible for this action that is,  the auditory and language center is the Temporal Lobe.

3. As I sang, I tried to visualize the lyrics and the in some parts, the music score sheet. (Visualization)

The part of the brain which controls visualisation is called the Occipital Lobe which also houses the Visual Cortex. Amongst other functions, it enables us to recall visual perceptions.

4. Breathing

Mechanically, singing is made possible with breath control. Adjusting the vocal cords without pushing air through them is the equivalent of opening and closing a tap without water flowing through it.

The part of the brain that controls breathing is called: the Medulla Oblongata. It is situated at the lowest part of the brainstem and also controls other reflex actions such as the blood pressure, heartbeat etc.

5. Memory Recall

Because the songs that I was singing were from memory, the region of the brain which controls music memories, experiences and context is the Hippocampus. It is situated deep in the temporal lobe.

Cheers

For example the arm of a human, the wing of a bird or a bat, the leg of a dog and the flipper of a dolphin or whale are homologous structures.

Erythropoiesis or the development of the erythrocytes is the process to which the development of the  erythrocyte cells from the bone marrow to the mature RBC. The development of these cells involved the three phases.

During second phase involves the differentiation of the precursors of the three different type of erythrocytes that are polychromatophilic, proerythroblasts, and orthochromatic erythroblasts. It also includes building up the color of the hemoglobin that overwhelms the color of ribosomes that is blue color.
