Answer:

A. exchanging carbon dioxide for oxygen from the air.

Explanation:

In a double circulation, the blood circulates between the heart and lungs is known as a pulmonary circuit. This circuit transports deoxygenated blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery to the lungs. Gaseous exchanges happens within the lungs. Carbon dioxide diffuses from the blood into the air within the alveoli and oxygen diffuses from the alveoli into the blood.

The correct answer among the choices provided is option A. Lung capillaries are responsible for exchanging carbon dioxide for oxygen from the air. Blood that comes from the heart gets oxygen from the alveoli. The carbon dioxide in the blood goes into the alveoli at the same time.

Mafic lava tends to have low silica content. Based on this, which of the following statements about mafic lava is most likely tr
sashaice [31]

Answer:

A. It contains fewer volatile gases.

Explanation:

Mafic lava have a composition of about 45-55% silica with high amount of Fe, Mg, Ca.

The silica content is quite low compared to those of granitic magma whose silica content can reach up to about 60%.

What determines the viscosity of magma is basically the silica content of the magma and the temperature of the magma. Viscosity is the resistance to flow.

The higher the silica content, the lower the viscosity and the higher the amount of volatile gases. Such type of magma is the granitic magma. Granitic magma due to their viscosity flows slowly.

The lower the silica content, the higher the viscosity and the lesser the presence of volatile gases in them. Such an example is Mafic magma. Mafic magma flows very slowly with low amount of dissolved gases.

1. The nucleic acids DNA and RNA carry genetic information and are made up of many . 2. Myoglobin is a protein that binds oxygen
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

1. Nucleotides

2. Amino acids

3. Amino acids

4. Glucose

Explanation:

All the above substance described are biomolecules. They are all polymers i.e. complex molecule bond together in a long repeating chain, made up of simpler subunits called monomers. The monomers of the different biomolecules outlined above are:

1. The nucleic acids, DNA and RNA carry genetic information and are made up of many NUCELEOTIDES. A nuceleotide is a chemical combination of a five carbon sugar (pentose), phosphate group and nitrogenous base. These nucleotides are arranged sequentially to form nucleic acids (RNA and DNA).

2. Myoglobin is a protein that binds oxygen molecules and is a polymer of AMINO ACIDS. Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. They are arranged to form a 3D structure that determines the function of the protein.

3. Insulin is a protein hormone that regulates blood glucose levels and is a polymer of AMINO ACIDS. All proteins are made up of the amino acid but the protein's function is dependent on the 3D structure formed by the amino acid sequence.

4. Animals store energy in the form of glycogen, a carbohydrate made up of thousands of monosaccharide (GLUCOSE). Glycogen is a polysaccharide made up of many monosaccharide units. These units are glucose molecules that are multibranched to form the glycogen that stores mainly in the liver and muscles of animals.

Nerve fibers from the olfactory bulb project directly to ________. nerve fibers from the olfactory bulb project directly to ____
ohaa [14]

The olfactory cortex (nucus) of the temporal lobe is where the nerve fibers of the olfactory bulb projects directly. This cortex is where you get the smell sensation before determining what the smell actually is. The olfactory cortex is located on the medial aspect of the temporal lobe, particularly in the uncus or the piriform lobe. It is also called the Rhinoencephalon or the nose brain.

n Drosophila melanogaster, forked bristles are caused by an allele (Xf) that is X linked and recessive to an allele for normal b
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Proportion of the F2 male with red eyes and forked bristle will be 1/4

Explanation:

forked bristles are caused by an allele (Xf) that is X linked and recessive to an allele for normal bristles (X+).

Brown eyes are caused by an allele (b) that is autosomal and recessive to an allele for red eyes (b+)

A female fly that is homozygous for normal bristles and red eyes mates with a male fly that has forked bristles and brown eyes

    X+X+b+b+  x    Xfbb

the F1 gives   1/2X+Xf 1/2b+b

                      1/2X+Y  1/2b+b

intercross of F1

      Proportion of the F2 male with red eyes and forked bristle will be

      forked bristle= Xfy = 1/2 and for red eyes  2/4= 1/2  = 1/2x1/2 =1/4
