Answer:

2. synthesize its own food

Explanation:

Based on how they obtain their nutrition, living organisms has been classified to be either producers, consumers, or decomposers. Producers are organisms capable of synthesizing their own food using light (photosynthesis) or inorganic chemicals (chemosynthesis).

Consumers, on the other hand, cannot synthesize their own food and hence, rely on other organisms to obtain their energy source. Consumers feed on other organisms to obtain energy. In this question, a fruit fly is classified as a CONSUMER because it cannot synthesize its own food.

Usually the Y chromosome. It is recessive because if one Y chromosone is mutated with red-green colorblindness and the X is not, the child will have colorblindness. But, if one X chromosome has the mutation and the other X does not, they will cancel out, meaning the child will not have colorblindness.

Glucose travels in the plasma or liquid part of
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Glucose is a sugar, highly soluble in water because it has lots of polar hydroxyl groups (-OH) which can form hydrogen-bonds with water molecules. These types of bonds are intermolecular forces which are present in other macromolecules like the DNA or proteins.

Cholesterol and triglycerids are lipids. These have long chains of hydrocarbons, which are non polar and therefore insoluble in water.

Blood is made of a solid and a liquid part. <u>The solid part contains cells</u>. <u>The liquid part (plasma), is made of water, salts, and proteins</u>. Glucose and cholesterol/triglycerids travel in the liquid part of the blood, in an aqueous environment. Because the lipids are not soluble, they need to travel with a carrier protein that keeps them protected from the surrounding water.

Zepler [3.9K]

In a typical ECG (Electrocardiogram) the first wave obtained is P wave; The P wave represents the depolarization of the atria. After this, the QRS complex is formed. The QRS wave represents the depolarization of the ventricles.  During the depolarization phase, the ventricles contracts and pushes the blood into the atria. Hence, the correct answer is depolarization of the ventricles.
