The question is incomplete, I included an attachment that completes the question as well as show the options to be chosen from.

Answer: YES, SUPPORTED

Explanation: When we talk of Osmoconformers, we are talking of the organisms that live in the marine habitat.

These Osmoconformers have the tendency of maintaining their internal fluid isotonic that is isotonic to their external environment in church they live. They have an osmotic pressure that is equal to the osmotic pressure of their surrounding environment.

In the table provided in the attachment section,it clearly stated as we can see the increase in osmolarity of water,the haemolymph osmolarity increase in order to maintain isotonic realtion so that,there will be no much exosmosis (osmosis).

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

The CORRECT ANSWER IS B.

B. Unlike the other countercurrent systems, a countercurrent multiplier system expends energy in active transport.

Explanation:

The countercurrent multiplier system involving the loop of Henle uses up energy in the form of ATP to actively conduct NaCl out of the filtrate in the upper region of the ascending limb of the loop. This energy in the form of ATP that is being used uniquely differentiates a countercurrent multiplier system from the different forms of countercurrent systems.

Epithelial tissue can be ____________ according to cell shape and number of layers. one layer of cells is called ____________ ,
alexira [117]

Epithelial tissue is composed of the innervated and avascular layer of cells which are tightly packed. It forms the outermost layer of the body and protects the internal layers and organs.

This tissue can be classified into different categories based on the shape of its cell, and the total number of the layers.

The epithelial tissue with only one layers is known as the simple epithelial tissue.

The epithelial cells that are thin, flat, and scaly are known as the squamous cells.

While the cubodial cells are round or square in shape.

Hence, the given blanks can be filled with classified, simple, squamous, and square.
