The right answer is A Tetrapods were no longer tied ...


Tetrapods are divided into two groups: Lissamphibians and Amniotes.

Amniotes have the amniotic egg. Basically, membranes protect the embryo in the egg: these membranes prevent water from leaving but allow air exchange. So, Amniotes are animals independent of the aquatic environment for reproduction.

Answer:

Tetrapods are no longer tied to the water for reproduction.

Explanation:

Amnion is the fluid filled sac that surrounds the embryo in eggs of terrestrial vertebrates. Amniotic fluid serves as cushion for embryo and protects it from desiccation. Evolution of the amniotic egg in ancestral amphibian of reptiles is considered to be an extremely important  event since it removed the dependence of terrestrial vertebrates on water for reproduction and allowed them to complete their life cycles on land.

How has human interaction affected the Mississippi Delta?
BaLLatris [955]

Explanation:

Sediment discharge was historically approximately 270 million cubic meters/year of suspended load and 130 million cubic meters/year of bedload. This has decreased 80% since 1850 and can be divided into three periods: historical period (pre 1900), pre-dam period (1932-1952), and post dam (1963-1982). Suspended sediment loads declined 43% between the historical and pre-dam and 51% from pre-dam to post-dam periods. The size of sediment also decreased drastically including a 72% decrease in the sand fraction. Most of this is due to dams on the tributaries acting as sediment traps primarily for the coarser sediments. Large-scale land clearing for agriculture contributed to increased sediment loads in the historic period.

LenKa [72]

The baglike structure that contains a clear fluid in which the developing embryo floats is called the Amnion.

<h3>What is an Amnion?</h3>

The membrane that  covers the embryos of reptiles, birds, and the mammals when first formed is called Amnion.

It contains amniotic fluid, which serves as an amniotic sac that provides a protective shield for the developing embryo. Together with the amnion, contains the

  • chorion
  • the yolk sac
  • allantois

with different functions to  protect the embryo.

The amniotic sac in humans is enclosed in the uterus while for birds, reptiles ,it is enclosed in a shell.

Calcium has an atomic number of 20 and an atomic mass (weight) of 40. Therefore, we know that calcium has
romanna [79]
It would have 20 protons, 20 neutrons, and 20 electrons. Protons and electrons are USUALLY (I say usually because of the different types of atoms) the same as the atomic number. To find neutrons you take the atomic mass minus the atomic number. 40-20=20
