Identify the components of blood and describe the function of each component.

Answers

Answer 1

Plasma is the major component of the blood and is largely made up of water, with proteins, ions, nutrients, and wastes thrown in for good measure. The red blood cells are in charge of transporting carbon dioxide. Blood clotting is controlled by platelets. White blood cells are immune system cells that aid in immunological response.

(i) What is fertilisation? Distinguish between external fertilisation and internal fertilisation. (ii) What is the site of fertilisation in human beings?​

Answers

♨️ Answer ♨️

i) Fertilisation or fertilization, also known as generative fertilisation, syngamy and impregnation, is the fusion of gametes to give rise to a new individual organism or offspring and initiate its development

What Is Internal Fertilization?

Syngamy of gametes occurs inside the female body after insemination through copulation

Observed in birds, mammals, birds occurring in terrestrial plants and animals, also in some of the aquatic entities. This is observed in three ways – ovoviviparity (eggs retained in the female body, hatched when fully developed, oviparity(egg-laying), viviparity(offsprings develop within the female body)

Observes in plants such as bryophytes, pteridophytes

What Is External Fertilization?

Syngamy of gametes outside the female body/outer environment, notably in water bodies

Observed in few vertebrates, sea urchins, fish, aquatic invertebrates, almost all amphibians

Deposition of sperms and eggs by males and females in open surroundings is known as spawning

Broadcast fertilization – used when sperms swim through the water uniting with eggs to fertilize

ii) In humans, the process of fertilization takes place in the fallopian tube. During this process, semen comprising thousands of sperms are inseminated into the female vagina during coitus. The sperms move towards the uterus and reach the opening of the fallopian tube.

how are antibiotics able to target the bacteria cells but not the healthy cells within your body ?

Answers

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

Antibiotics:Medications used specifically against bacteria are called antibiotics.

Difference between bacterial cells and our healthy cells:

Bacterial cells have cell walls. However, Healthy cells of our body lack cell wall.

Why are antibiotics able to target bacterial cells:

Antibiotics are specific in their functions. They are designed as to attack only bacterial cells. They attack the cell wall of the bacterial cell most often. Since, the healthy cells of our body lack cell wall, antibiotics are not able to attack healthy cells of our body.

In this way, our body cells are safe from the attack of antibiotics.

what do you think might happen to a bird that doesn't have a beak that can be used to eat the food that exists in a certain area?

Answers

Answer:

Down below

Explanation:

The bird would either die, find other food, or evolve to have the beak it needs.  It's a matter of natural selection.  If the bird doesn't learn that it needs a certain beak, then the species will die off.  However, if the bird learns that it needs a certain type of beak, it's species will evolve to have this beak.  In the off-chance that the bird doesn't evolve, it will most likely find another source of food to survive.

4. The oxpecker feeds on the insects that surround the rhinoceros, The rhinoceros has fewer bugs surrounding it.

Answers

Answer:

Predation is an interaction in which one organism, the predator, eats all or part of the body of another organism, the prey.

Herbivory is a form of predation in which the prey organism is a plant.

Predator and prey populations affect each other's dynamics. The sizes of predator and prey populations often go up and down in linked cycles.

Predators and prey often have adaptations—beneficial features arising by natural selection—that are related to their interaction. For prey, these include various defenses and warning signals, such as bright coloration.

The true statement regarding the two sounds is  Wave A has a lower frequency than wave B. Thus, option "B" is correct.

What is the pitch of a sound?

The pitch of a sound is the sensation of the sound frequency.

A high pitch sound corresponds to a high-frequency sound wave and a low pitch sound corresponds to low frequency.

Sound of the same amplitude has the same loudness.

Choose the molecule that is most concentrated at each ph ?

Answers

I don’t have my notes on me but I’m assuming this questions has to do with the H+ concentration in each compound. The more H+ molecules in a solution, the more acidic it is, the lower it’s pH is. So for the low pH of 4 (most acidic), H2CO3 is the most concentrated since there are the highest number of H+ ions per molecule. For the medium pH of 7 (neutral), HCO3- is most concentrated. For the high pH of 10 (basic), CO3^2- is most concentrated because there are the least number of H+ ions, in this case, none at all.

1. d.water comes "out of" or "exits" the reaction

2. a.energy goes "into" or "enters" the reaction

3. Path A

Explanation:

1) Peptide bond synthesis is dehydration reaction which means water is "dehydrated" meaning released when the reaction occurs.

2) Anytime we want to join things together we gotta use energy, these processes are anabolic reactions such as making sugars, proteins, lipids, in our cell. Since we are making protein here, we need to put energy into the reaction.

3) Path A is hydrophobic b/c they directly diffuse thru cell membrane to attach to intracellular receptor.
