Osculum: A large opening in a sponge through water flows out of the sponge. the sponge may have more than one Osculum.

Ostia: A series of tiny pores all over the body of a sponge that let water into the sponge. One of these is called Ostium.

Large opening in a sponge through which water flows out of the sponge. There can be more than one osculum in them while ostia are a series of tiny pores which are present all over the body of a sponge.

Further explanation

Sponge  

They are multicellular, heterotrophic organisms which belongs to phylum porifera. There are three types of sponges which are syconoid, asconoid, and leuconoid.

Osculum

It is an excretory structure in the living sponge, a huge opening to the outside through which flow of water exits in the wake of going through the spongocoel. Waste material diffuses into the water and the water is siphoned through the osculum. Sponge siphon pumps huge volumes of water; all in all, a volume of water equivalent to the wipe's body size is siphoned at regular intervals. The size of the osculum is controlled by contractile myocytes. Its size is one of the elements which decides the measure of water moving through the sponge. It tends to be shut totally in light of overabundance residue in the water.

Ostia

They are present in the form of pores on the body of sponge and a single pore is called osteum.

Suppose that a late succession plant that is surrounded by early succession plants grows at a rate of 0.5 cm per day. If the ear
inessss [21]

Answer:

negative, inhibition

Explanation:

The experiment in the illustration shows that early succession plants have a <u>negative </u>effect on the late succession plants, and the observation is most consistent with the <u>inhibition</u> model of succession.

<em>That the late succession plant thrives better in the absence of the early succession plants means that the early succession plant has been impacting the growth of the late succession plant negatively. This is consistent with the inhibition model of succession.</em>

There are 3 different models of succession. These include;

  1. Facilitation model in which colonists modify the environment to favor the growth of later successional species.
  2. Tolerance model in which early colonists' modification of the environment has no positive or negative impact on the growth of later successional species.
  3. Inhibition model in which early colonists modify the environment to inhibit the growth of later successional species.

amm1812

Answer:

Low Enzyme Production is the reason for no breaking down of food.

Explanation:

If the digestion of food did not occur so it means that there is low enzyme production because enzymes are responsible for the breaking down of food substances into simpler ones in order to absorb by the cells for the generation of energy in the form of ATP. So we can conclude that low enzyme production is the only reason for the stopping of breaking down or digestion of food.

Describe the major differences in acute versus passive range of motion (rom) when distinguishing between an articular and nonart
Ierofanga [76]
The question should be about active vs passive range of motion.

In the active range of motion, the test is done by asking the patient to move their body themselves. In this case, the patient should use their muscle to move their body. If there is a restriction in this examination, it could be caused by the muscles or the joints, or the nervous system that used to contract the muscle.
In the passive range of motion, the test is done by the examiner moving the patient body. Since no muscle used, the test shouldn't be influenced much by the muscle. Then, if there is an articular joint issue, the restriction would be found in both passive and active ROM, but the nonarticular joint issue might only cause abnormality in the active ROM.
