The right matches are:

1. Nonflowering  ==> Gymnosperm

Some plants do not have real flowers, this is the case of pines and firs. Eggs are not protected in an ovary and are placed naked under a shell hence their name Gymnosperms which means naked seeds. There is no petals or sepals. The egg after fertilization will give a seed but there will be no fruit.


2. Exposed seeds  ==> Gymnosperm

The term "gymnosperm" means "bare seed", which allows us to define this plant class in a broad sense, containing a certain number of phyla that have arrived at the same evolutionary stage. Gymnosperms are the intermediates between vascular cryptograms (Pteridophytes) and Angiosperms.


3. Garden flowers and tomatoes  ==> Angiosperms

Tomato plants belong to the group of plants called flowering plants or angiosperms. The tomato plant reproduces sexually, which means that female and male organs are needed to produce seeds. Each tomato seed contains a tiny plant. When conditions are adequate, the tomato seeds germinate.


4. Seeds enclosed in fruit  ==> Angiosperms

In angiosperms, the eggs are located in a closed ovary; they are thus protected. The pollen grain develops a pollen tube to reach the embryonic sac of the egg. Fertilization is double; the first begets the seedling; the second generates a fostering embryo, the albumen. The ovary evolves into a fruit after fertilization.


5. Pine or fir trees  ==> Gymnosperms

Fir and pine are trees, and more specifically conifers, which belong to the family Pinaceae.

The fir tree is a medium-altitude tree of which there are about forty species in the temperate regions of the northern hemisphere in particular.


Pine, finally, has needles finer than those of fir. They are also grouped in bundles of two, three or five. Its cones are also falling.


6. Flowering ==> Angiosperms.

The flowering plants form on Earth most of the plants with about 350000 described species, with more than 2000 new taxa formalized each year. The flowering plants, or phanerogams, integrate trees and grasses because these plants also produce flowers, although sometimes more discreet. These are angiosperms. A flowering plant, after the flowering stage, gives fruits after pollination.

3. In Module 1.3 Cell Types, examine the illustrations of six specific cells: a neuron, red blood cell, osteocyte, skeletal musc
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

Please find the similarities and differences between these cells below.

Explanation:

According to this question, six specific cells are examined. They are: neuron, red blood cell, osteocyte, skeletal muscle cell, sperm cell, and egg cell.

SIMILARITIES:

These cells are cells that make up different tissues and systems in living organisms. They perform different functions in their respective locations, however, they are similar in the sense that they all possess some cellular components called organelles. The organelles that are common to all these types of cells are CELL MEMBRANE, RIBOSOMES, MITOCHONDRIA, GENETIC MATERIAL (DNA), NUCLEUS,

They also possess two set of chromosomes in their nucleus i.e. diploid.

DIFFERENCES:

However, they differ in their functions. For example;

- neuron: nerve cell whose function is related to the nervous system

- red blood cell: blood cell whose function is related to circulatory system

- osteocyte: bone cell whose function is related to the skeletal system

- skeletal muscle cell- muscle cell whose function is related to the muscular system

- sperm cell: a male sex cell whose function is related to reproduction

- egg cell: a female sex cell whose function is related to reproduction

The innermost serous membrane covering the heart is the: Group of answer choices synovial layer peritoneum visceral pleura visce
stepan [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>There are innermost serious membranes that cover the heart is Parietal Pericardium.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Heart is <em>covered by pericardium</em> in two sides, inner and outer sides. The inner membrane is parietal pericardium and the outer one is visceral pericardium. Pericardium is made up of <em>fiber tissues</em> that strongly protect the heart from all around.

The<em> main function of pericardium</em> is to protect the heart from any injuries and prevent the infections. The serious pericardium helps in<em> lubricating the heart. </em>

What are two alternative futures for cells when they reach their size limitations?
Lynna [10]
When cells reach their size limitations one of two things will happen: they will either stop growing and split into two separate cells. Cell division can be both good and bad.

In your own words, explain why a virus such as the rhinovirus, which relies on close contact to spread, might evolve to favor le
Zielflug [23.3K]

Rhinoviruses are transmitted through the air or via contact. We might expect this sort of transmission to require a fairly healthy host (one who gets out and comes into contact with others) and, hence, to select against virulent strains. If we take precautions and try to stay away from people or avoid any contact with people, more hand-washing stations, increased attention to sanitization, and isolation of patients will help to reduce the transmission of the disease and, in the process, may favor the evolution of less virulent strains of the virus.
