Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system controls internal body processes such as the following:

Blood pressure

Heart and breathing rates

Body temperature

Digestion

Answer:

Due to different pigments.

Explanation:

The multicellular algae are red, green and brown because of the presence of pigments. The red algae are red in colour because of the presence of the phycoerythrin which is a type of pigment. This pigment reflects red light due to already presence in its body and absorbs blue light that is necessary for photosynthesis process. The brown algae contain fucoxanthin pigment and green algae contain xanthophylls pigments that are responsible for its colour so we can conclude that these different types of pigments are responsible for the different colour of algae.

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer and Explanation:

A gene is a section of DNA. The change in the sequence of the DNA is known as mutation.  Mutation always changes the sequence of the DNA. Sunlight can cause mutation. Sunlight produces structures named thymine dimers. Thymine dimers produce twist in the shape of DNA. These twists make DNA hard to copy, which can lead to mutation. It is essential to use sunscreen to block UVA and UVB rays to prevent thymine dimers from emerging in our cells. The US Food and Drug Agency recommends an SPF (sun protection factor) to defend against skin aging and skin cancer. X-ray radiation is a form used in x-rays. The energy level of the X-ray radiation is very high that can produce free radicals. Free radicals can steal electrons from DNA that can cause mutation. By using medical images, we can decrease exposure to X-rays. Less exposure to X-rays prevents mutation and also prevents the production of gene protein in other body parts.

zlopas [31]
Permitting the exchange of nutrients and gases between the blood and tissue cells is the primary function of capillaries. Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels , they are only one cell thick, and they act as sites of the transfer of oxygen and other nutrients from the bloodstream to the body tissues. Additionally, they also collect carbon dioxide, waste materials and fluids for return to the veins.
