D. Muscus and cilia trap pathogens
have a good day!
Active transport requires energy because it moves molecules across a membrane to a region of lower to higher concentration which is often against their concentration gradient or has an obstructing factor.
Answer:
A. diploid and C. somatic
Explanation:
Humans are diploid organisms and have 23 pair of chromosomes i.e. in total humans have 46 chromosomes.
There are 2 types of cells in humans (1) somatic cells and (2) germ cells.
Somatic cells are normal body cells which are diploid and have all 23 pairs of chromosomes. But, germ cells are special type of cells which are produced by gonads (sex organs). Germ cells are also known as gametes. In females, ovary is the sex organ which produces germ cells named as egg cells while in males testes is the sex organ which produces germ cells named as sperms. Germ cells (egg and sperm) are haploid cells which fuse to form a zygote which is the first cell of next generation. The process of fusion of egg and sperm is known as fertilization which is responsible for restoring diploidy in the progeny which receives half the genetic material from female parent and half the genetic material from male parent.
Answer:
Apply the principle of parsimony
Explanation:
A cladogram is used to show or illustrate hypothetical speciation and relationships between species. They are commonly used to classify animals.
The principle of parsimony argues that the simplest of competing explanations is most likely to be correct.
In order to construct a cladogram that best reflects the evolutionary relationship of a group of species. Application of the principle of parsimony will help in deciding which tree is most likely to have occurred based on the fewest character state changes.
