Answer:

The correct answer is the letter D. Intensive rice cultivation

Explanation:

Subsistence agriculture is characterized by low technical level in small production units with the objective of directly feeding family members. Examples of low-intensity agricultural activities are carried out on small and medium-sized farms, usually with family labor. It occurs in low-valued areas, which do not interest commercial agriculture, however it is practiced worldwide. On the other hand, rice is the third most planted crop in the world, with approximately 160 hectares cultivated per year.

The oil immersion objective is necessary to determine the morphology of prokaryotes
VLD [36.1K]
To clearly view the morphology of the prokaryotes, one needs a microscope with higher resolution i.e magnification of ×100. Use of oil for this purpose is important because it  reduces the refraction of light as it travels from air to glass. this process increases the resolution of the microscope making it possible to view morphology of bacteria.

The correct answer is - 1. true, 2. true, 3. false, and 4. true.

Explanation:

1. Rod cells are the photoreceptors present in the retina that are hyperpolarized not depolarized in dark due to sodium ions efflux.

2. Depolarisation of the bipolar cell of the retina by glutamate release by rods and cones.

3. The adaption according to the light is known as a light adaptation which takes place due to a large part of photochemical in both rods and cones which is reduced to retinal and opsins.

This glandular tissue resembles that of the salivary gland (clusters of zymogenic cells). What feature unique to the pancreas wo
leva [86]

Answer:

Seen on the explanation.

Explanation:

Glandular tissues are a mixture of both endocrine (ductless, hormones are secreted directly into the blood) and exocrine (have ducts, hormones are secreted into surfaces) glands.

The pancreas and salivary glands are both exocrine glands although the pancreas has an endocrine function via the islets of Langerhans, both aid in the digestion of food.

The pancreas lacks striated ducts and the intralobular duct is similar to the intercalated duct of salivary glands. It often has a collapsed lumens and the cells are cuboidal with little cytoplasmic staining in contrast to acinar cells.

The pancreas can also be distinguished from the parotid gland by the presence of the pancreatic islet (islets of langerharns) which has an endocrine function.
