Given what we know, we can confirm that Ostia are important to sponges because they pull water into the sponge through the beating of their flagella.

<h3>What are Sponges?</h3>
  • A sponge is an aquatic multicellular organism.
  • Morphologically, they are very simple organisms, lacking complex structures.
  • One structure that they do possess is the Ostia.
  • The Ostia are a series of pores located throughout the body of the sponge.
  • They serve to draw in water through the beating of multiple flagella.

Therefore, we can confirm that since the Ostia of the sponge are used to pull water into the sponge through the beating of their flagella, the correct answer would be option D.

The sequence of dna from your snork is found in which organelle?
Leto [7]

Explanation:

The nucleus is a large membrane-bound organelle that houses the genetic information, DNA, in the cell.

Sequences of DNA make up genes which can have different forms called alleles. DNA is transcribed into mRNA and later translated into amino acids which are linked together by rRNA to form proteins.

Further Explanation:

All the genetic information within the eukaryotic cell is stored within the nucleus as helical DNA. This DNA is tightly wound around histones as chromosomes. Chromosomes within the nucleus is unwound, unzipped and read by enzymes in a complex series of steps known as transcription. The message on DNA, called genes is copied by RNA polymerase, to form mRNA complementary sequence to that of the DNA strand. These are then translated into proteins in ribosomes.

Explain how photosynthesis provides energy for consumers.
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Through photosynthesis, certain organisms convert solar energy (sunlight) into chemical energy, which is then used to build carbohydrate molecules. The energy used to hold these molecules together is released when an organism breaks down food. Cells then use this energy to perform work, such as cellular respiration.

Final maturation process of sperm in female tract before fertilization accomplished by binding of sperm to a glycosaminoglycan
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
Mammalian fertilization comprises sperm migration through the female reproductive tract, biochemical and morphological changes to sperm, and sperm-egg interaction in the oviduct. Recent gene knockout approaches in mice have revealed that many factors previously considered important for fertilization are largely dispensable, or if they are essential, they have an unexpected function. These results indicate that what has been observed in in vitro fertilization (IVF) differs significantly from what occurs during “physiological” fertilization. This Review focuses on the advantages of studying fertilization using gene-manipulated animals and highlights an emerging molecular mechanism of mammalian fertilization.

Which organ stores and compacts waste before it is eliminated?
liberstina [14]
That organ is called the rectum, or more coomonly, the anus. The rectum is the final part of the large intestine and the digestive system, where food that has had all its nutrients extracted (as much as possible, anyway) is sent to be compacted and sent out through the anus in the form of excreta. The contents in the rectum is mostly indigestible fiber and other materials. The rectum at its end connects to the bodily orifice known as the anus.
