The answer would be Sample A (bright red blood cells).

Blood right ventricle is dark red because it has a high amount of carbon dioxide. The blood will be pumped into the lungs where carbon dioxide will diffuse out and oxygen will diffuse in. After that, the blood will become bright red and pumped into left atrium then left ventricle.
Blood in the left ventricle would be bright red because it contains a high amount of oxygen.

Sample A most likely came from the left ventricle, as this is the portion of the heart that receives freshly oxygenated blood to be pumped to different parts of the body. Oxygenated blood is blood that has had oxygen bounded to it by hemoglobin (a pigment made of iron found in red blood cells). The oxidation of this blood by the iron in the hemoglobin gives it the RBC bright red look. This blood containing the bright RBCs in transported to the left ventricle from the lung, after which it is spread throughout the body. Hence, in normal conditions of the heart, the Sample A most likely came from the left ventricle.

The distant ancestors of tigers may have had bodies without stripes. Use the theory of natural selection to explain how tigers m

Degger [83]

The tigers have stripes because it is advantageous for them because they are an ambush predator and need good camouflage. The stripes are excellent camouflage for places that are shady, so the tiger can easily get close to its prey and attack it.

There's a very big possibility that the distant ancestors of the tigers did not had stripes. The reasons for that are different environment, but also that the stripes are actually a very rare type of pattern among the felidae family members.

As the environment started changing, the tigers needed to adapt to it, so they also needed a different camouflage. As some tigers in the population started to develop stripes, they were better hunters, thus were stronger, and seen as suitable mates for the females, as it would provide an offspring with the advantage that the male tiger has. Through this selection in the breeding process of mates that have advantageous camouflage patterns, the stripes were becoming more and more present, to the point where they totally pushed aside and eliminated the previously dominant camouflage pattern.

A student compares the four distinct cells that could form from the stem cell after differentiation. Which statement accurately

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The statement that accurately compares and contrasts the red blood cell and the white blood cell is that both have the same copy of DNA, but different genes are expressed in the two cell types.

Explanation:

Red blood cells (RBC) and white blood cells (WBC) are two highly differentiated types of cells that come from the hematopoietic system and have different functions in the blood.

Compared to WBC , RBC cells lack a nucleus and have fewer organelles, and their function is to transport gases in the blood, unlike the former which are involved in the body's defence.

Cell differentiation is based on gene expression of the genome, resulting in different types of proteins synthesized in each cell, which give them a different structure and function.

Both WBC and RBC have the same genome, but different genes are expressed in each, giving them different morphological and functional characteristics.
