How jelly fish used jet propulsion effect in its locomotion

6 0

dichotomies exist within the swim systems of jellyfish—one centered on the mechanics of locomotion and the other on phylogenetic differences in nervous system organization. For example, medusae with prolate body forms use a jet propulsion mechanism, whereas medusae with oblate body forms use a drag-based marginal rowing mechanism. Independent of this dichotomy, the nervous systems of hydromedusae are very different from those of scyphomedusae and cubomedusae. In hydromedusae, marginal nerve rings contain parallel networks of neurons that include the pacemaker network for the control of swim contractions. Sensory structures are similarly distributed around the margin. In scyphomedusae and cubomedusae, the swim pacemakers are restricted to marginal integration centers called rhopalia. These ganglionlike structures house specialized sensory organs. The swim system adaptations of these three classes (Hydrozoa, Scyphozoa, and Cubozoa), which are constrained by phylogenetics, still adhere to the biomechanical efficiencies of the prolate/oblate dichotomy. This speaks to the adaptational abilities of the cnidarian nervous system as specialized in the medusoid forms.

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

carbohydrates.

lipids.

proteins.

nucleic acids.

Explanation: Carbohydrates are the most abundant biomolecule on Earth. Living organisms use carbohydrates as accessible energy to fuel cellular reactions and for structural support inside cell walls. Cells attach carbohydrate molecules to proteins and lipids, modifying structures to enhance functionality.

Over 95% of incoming UV-B radiation is absorbed in the stratosphere. Please select the best answer from the choices provided
kramer

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The stratosphere is the layer of the earth’s atmosphere which is above the troposphere and below the mesosphere.

The stratosphere contains about 90 percent of the ozone layer. The stratosphere is made up of ozone layers which helps in the absorption of about 95 percent of the ultraviolet rays from the sun and converting to heat.

This is the reason why depletion of the ozone layer found in the stratosphere gives rise to global warming.
