Answer:

D) The gland produces and secretes its product into the blood.

Explanation:

Endocrine glands are the ductless glands. They do not have ducts to deliver their secretions to the target cells but directly release them into the blood. The secretions of endocrine glands are called hormones. To be an endocrine gland, the mentioned long oval structure should lack ducts and release its hormone/s directly into the blood. For example, the thyroid gland is an endocrine gland and releases its hormone thyroxine directly into the blood to be carried to the target body cells.

Answer yes or no to the following questions, and then explain the reasons for your answer: a. Can meiosis occur in haploid speci
ELEN [110]

Answer:

For [a] .....Yes

For [b]......No

Explanation:

Meiosis is known to be a process of reducing the number of chromosomes in a diploid to half.

And it should be noted that , meiosis requires the pairing of two chromosomes sets.

Therefore in this case, before meiosis can occur in the haploid, it must involves two haploids. This means that two individual haploid will fuse together to form diploid meiocyte, which will allow meiosis to occur.

This is the reason why meiosis can only takes place on haploid species.

In summary, it should be noted that, meiosis can only takes place in a diploid and two individuals haploid [ haploid species] that can fuse together to form diploid, but not in a haploid individual.
