What part did you need help understanding? Your definition is pretty strong- the epiglottis keeps food from entering the trachea and lungs. It also opens during breathing to allow air into the lungs. Good luck on your test, let me know if you need anymore refreshers!
Gametes are the cells in human body used for reproduction, such as sperms or eggs, and somatic cells are the other body cells, such as muscle cells, skin cells and all other.
First, they have different number of chromosomes. Gametes have only one set of chromosomes, while somatic cells have a complete 2 set of chromosomes. This is because fertilization requires 2 gametes joining together and this will help maintain the correct amount of chromosomes at last.
Second difference between them is that gametes are products of meiosis, while somatic cells are products from mitosis. Both are types of cell divisions but meiosis produces 4 genetically different cells while mitosis produces 2 genetically indentical daughter cells.
Answer:
The phenotypic variation for the trait is continuous
Explanation:
Genetically speaking, quantitative traits are controlled by many genes, classes are not easily distinguishable and there is a continuous distribution of the phenotype. These characteristics refer to measurements of quantities (weights, volumes, measurements: kg, m, cm, g, m2, etc.).
In other words, quantitative characteristics are those that exhibit continuous variations and are partly of non-genetic origin; that is, they are greatly affected by the environment.
Answer:
Diffusion
Explanation:
Diffusion is a passive process of transport. A single substance tends to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration until the concentration is equal across the space.
The correct answer is C) only some survive because variation exists
