Answer: False
Explanation:
Just because an environmental agent is not harmful does not mean that it is beneficial therefore not all non-harmful environmental agents that a pregnant woman ingests aid in the development of the fetus.
This is where the Placenta comes in. It filters out the agents and nutrients that are not needed and passes only the relevant ones to the fetus thereby ensuring that not all non-harmful agents pass through.
Answer:
The cilia is one of the things that act defensively in the respiratory system.
Explanation:
It propels a mucus-like liquid that covers the airway which traps pathogens (potentially infectious microorganisms) and other particles, preventing them from reaching the lungs.
The one that is different is HORSE.
Lion, wolf and tiger are flesh eaters while horse is a grass eater, thus, horse is an herbivore while the other three animals are carnivorous in their feeding mode. The difference in these animal feeding mode will results in differences in their stomach compartment and their digestive process.
Answer: B
Explanation: Life science studies the life of an organism and earth science is the study of anything on earth
In the block to polyspermy, entry of the sperm's contents causes calcium ion levels in the oocyte's cytoplasm to rise, triggering the cortical reaction.
In biology, polyspermy describes the fertilization of an egg by more than one sperm. Diploid organisms normally contain two copies of each chromosome, one from each parent.
The cell resulting from polyspermy, on the other hand, contains three or more copies of each chromosome—one from the egg and one each from multiple sperm. Usually, the result is an unviable zygote. This may occur because sperm are too efficient at reaching and fertilizing eggs due to the selective pressures of sperm competition.
The cortical reaction is a calcium-dependent exocytotic process in which the content of secretory granules is released into the perivitellin space immediately after fertilization, which serves to prevent polyspermic fertilization.
