Answer:
The correct answers are:
Analogous structures do not indicate a common ancestor. Analogous structures have the same function but a different structure. An example of an analogous structure is the wing of a bat and a butterfly.
Explanation:
Analogous structures are the structures that have a similar function in various organisms but their anatomic structure is different from one another in reality. Analogous structures are do not indicate a common ancestor.
An analogous structures example is the wings of the bat and butterfly as they are both used for flying but their structure is different anatomically from one another.
Answer:
1.) neurilemma (option f)
2.) nissil bodies (chromatiophillic substance)
3.) neurofibrilis ( option g)
4.) myelin ( option e)
5.) dendrite ( option d)
6.) collateral ( option c)
7.) astrocytes (option a)
8.) axon ( option b)
9.) Unipolar neuron (option i)
Explanation:
The neurological terms described above are different parts of a nerve cell or neurones. The nerve cells are the basic Structural units of the nervous system. They are highly specialised for transmitting electric impulses. They can also be grouped according to the number of processes they possess, for example, the UNIPOLAR NEURONS( those with one process only). Each neuron, however, is composed of the same basic parts which include:
--> The CELL BODY: they may be angular or oval in shape with a large nucleus and dense granulated cytoplasm. In the cytoplasm, rough Endoplasmic reticulum which contains CHROMATIOPHILLIC SUBSTANCE (nissil bodies) and Golgi apparatus are also seen.Network of threadlike structures known as neurofibrilis are also seen within the cell body and extending into axon.
--> DENDRONS: these are one or more extensions which branches to form many fine dendrites. The DENDRONS carry nerve impulses( action potential) that their dendrites receive to the cell body.
--> AXON: this is a long process which branches at it's free end to end in synaptic knobs. It carries electric impulses away from the cell body. Most times, a substance of Schwann cell known as MYELIN SHEATH which is composed of lipoprotein insulates axons and increases impulse speed.
Answer:
The photosynthetic rate refers to a determination of maximum rate at which leaves possess the tendency to fix carbon at the time of photosynthesis. The simple way by which the photosynthetic rate can be determined is by measuring the concentration of carbon dioxide produced.
It is known that the concentration of carbon dioxide, light intensity, and temperature are the three main elements, which affect photosynthesis. The enhanced concentration of carbon dioxide and higher light intensity results in higher photosynthetic rates.
In the given case where Elodea is used to study photosynthesis, it can be seen that at high light intensities, the concentration of bubbles increases as there is an elevation in the concentration of carbon dioxide.
I pretty sure I answered this and it was B please tell me if I’m wrong
Answer:
The answer is B. Some organic molecules, including amino acids, could have been produced from chemical reactions on early Earth.
Explanation:
Miller-Urey Experiment:
The Miller-Urey experiment was an attempt to explain the origin of life on Earth. Miller-Urey simulated the primordial soup i.e. the environment of primitive Earth to prove the spontaneous generation of organic molecules. The conditions they introduced included:
- A methane-ammonia-hydrogen and water mixture that exactly simulated the primordial soup.
- A spark of 70,000 volts that simulated lightening.
- A temperature of 800 degree Celsius.
Observations:
- After running for 18 days, the final solution was examined for presence of organic molecules.
- Miller-Urey observed that most of the methane and ammonia had been consumed and the mixture contained carbon monoxide and nitrogen.
- The solution further contained 25 amino acids (mainly, glycine, alanine and aspartic acid)
, several fatty acids
, hydroxy acids and amide products.
The experiment concluded that simple organic compounds such as amino acids could have been formed through spontaneous generation under the Earth's primitive environmental conditions.
