Answer:
External- The testes are covered by a tough membranous shell called the tunica albuginea. Within the testes are very fine coiled tubes called seminiferous tubules. The tubules are lined with a layer of cells (germ cells) that develop from puberty through old age into sperm cells (also known as spermatozoa or male gametes).
Internal -Each testicle is covered by tough, fibrous layers of tissue called the tunica. The outer layer is called the tunica vaginalis and the inner layer is called the tunica albuginea. ... There are about 800 seminiferous tubules tightly coiled within each testicle.
For each of the following structures, first indicate its function in the fetus; then, note its fate (what happens to it or what it is converted to after birth).
a. Umbilical artery
b. Umbilical vein
c. Ductus venosus
d. Ductus arterious
e. Foramen ovale
Answer:
1. Functions:
a. Umbilical artery >> carries deoxygenated blood from the fetus to the placenta
b. Umbilical vein >> transports oxygenated blood from the placenta to the fetus
c. Ductus venosus >> allows oxygenated blood from the placenta to bypass the liver
d. Ductus arterious >> allows most of the blood from the right ventricle to bypass the fetus's non-functioning lungs
e. Foramen ovale >> oxygenated blood from the umbilical vein to bypass the pulmonary circulation
2. After the bird:
1. Umbilical artery >> medial umbilical ligament
2. Umbilical vein >> round ligament of the liver
3. Ductus venosus >> ligamentum venosum
4. Ductus arteriosus >> ligamentum arteriosum
5. Foramen ovale >> fossa ovalis
Explanation:
The umbilical artery is a paired artery localized in the abdominal and pelvic regions, which carries deoxygenated blood from the fetus to the placenta through the umbilical cord. The medial umbilical ligament is the obliterated part of the umbilical artery that arises from the internal iliac arteries. In utero, the umbilical arteries carry waste products back to the placenta, whereas the umbilical vein carries oxygenated blood from the placenta to the fetus. The round ligament of the liver (also known as ligamentum teres hepatis) is a remnant of the umbilical vein that exists in the embryonic stage, it connects the left lobe of the liver to the umbilicus. The ductus venosus is a slender shunt that allows oxygenated blood from the placenta to bypass the liver, it connects the intra-hepatic portion of the umbilical vein to the inferior vena cava. The ligamentum venosum is an extrahepatic, slender, and fibrous remnant of the fetal ductus venosus that travels between the left portal vein and the inferior vena cava. The ductus arteriosus is a fetal artery that connects the aorta to the pulmonary artery. The ligamentum arteriosum is a nonfunctional vestige of the ductus arteriosus, it is attached to the superior surface of the pulmonary trunk. The foramen ovale is an oval-shaped, small, opening in the wall (septum) between the two upper chambers of the heart. The fossa ovalis is a vestige stricture of the foramen ovale of the embryonic heart, which forms a depression in the right atrium of the heart.

Is the podocyte process of the glomerular capillary wall the same as the endothelial layer?
Answer:
The podocytes have long foot processes called pedicels, for which the cells are named (podo- + -cyte). The pedicels wrap around the capillaries and leave slits between them. Blood is filtered through these slits, each known as a filtration slit or slit diaphragm or slit pore.
The second generation of purebred cross of -hom-ozygo us recessive organism, with a —hom-ozygous dominant organism, contain a ratio of approximately _______ expressed dominant traits to recessive traits.
A. 2:1
B. 1:1
C. 1:3
D. 3:1
Answer:
D. 3:1
Explanation:
Gregor Mendel, in one of his numerous studies, performed a cross between purebred dominant (TT) pea plants and purebred recessive (tt) pea plants. All the offsprings of this cross appeared heterozygous tall (Tt) in the F1 generation.
However, when he self-crossed the F1 generation i.e. Tt × Tt, Mendel obtained a phenotypic ratio of 3 tall plants (dominant traits) : 1 short plant (recessive). This showed that the masked gene (recessive) was still present.

Lymph ______ are found throughout the body and are a signal of a disease, infection, or problem if they become and remain swollen for long periods of time.
______ are pathogens that cannot be killed with antibiotics because they are non-living. They take over cellular organelles to replicate and spread.
Because they are also eukaryotes with their own cell membranes and membrane-bound organelles, ______ are often difficult to combat with medicines.
A cell signal called ______ is produced by mast cells. These molecules cause more fluid to spread to an infected area.
_______ are the types of cells that produce antibodies.
All pathogens have unique identifying molecules on their surfaces called ______. Antibodies bind to these, and targeting the pathogen to be destroyed by the immune system.
______ is a non-specific response to disease, in which the body temperature rises
Answer:
nodes
Viruses
fungi
histamine
B-cells
antigens
Fever
When a paper cut breaks the skin, it introduces outside microorganisms into the cut. The body recognizes the break in the skin. Mast cells produce histamines, which cause more blood and lymph fluid to flow to the wound. This increased flow brings phagocytic white blood cells to the area, which destroy invading organisms until the blood can clot and the skin can heal over the cut, preventing more organisms from entering the body. If a cut is too deep or too wide, special care such as stitches and antibiotics could be needed to prevent infection.

Many types lack mitochondria. D. Some produce toxic agents in the water E. Their dead cells accumulate on the seafloor, and are mined to serve as a filtering material.
Answer: The correct option is D(Some produce toxic agents in the water).
Explanation:
Dinoflagellates are found in the phylum Dinoflagellata which are single celled organisms. They are mostly found in the ocean while few of them can live in streams, freshwater ponds and rivers. The following characteristics can be used to identify a Dinoflagellates, these include:
--> they are golden brown
--> they possess assimilative cell with indented waist.
--> they possess large nucleus with visible chromosomes.
It has been reported that many dinoflagellate species can produce various natural toxins. These toxins can be extremely toxic and many of them are effective at far lower dosages than conventional chemical agents. Therefore the option, Some produce toxic agents in the water, is a correct statement.

A new mammal has been discovered in the thickly-forested mountains of Papua New Guinea. The squirrel-like animal lives in the canopy of the forest and has a diet rich in leaves. On occasion, however, the animal drops to the ground to quickly fill its cheeks with its own fecal droppings, for ingestion once it is safely back in the trees. The GI tract of this animal would most likely include ________. a simple stomach and a large cecum a simple stomach, a short small intestine and colon, and a small cecum a four-chambered stomach and long intestines a long small intestine with abundant villi and an appendix at the beginning of the large intestine a short intestine and no cecum
Answer:
a simple stomach and a large cecum
Explanation:
Some small animals whose diet is prominent in vegetable matter, have an elongated cecum.
This segment of the digestive tract might be considered the first portion of the large intestine. It receives undigested material, and through the action of bacterial flora, is able to ferment this material and mix its contents with mucous substances to facilitate absorption. Through the walls, the organ can absorb fluids, salts, and nutrients.
The cecum size varies according to the animals. In small organisms, such as the new squirrel-like herbivore animal from the example, the cecum is enlarged. An elongated surface is useful for better digestion and absorption.

Explanation:
Hemoglobin (Hb) is a multimeric protein molecule that transports oxygen from the lungs to the body's tissues in red blood cells. Hb exists in two quaternary states: 1- a T-state or deoxygenated conformation, which is referred to as 'deoxyhemoglobin'; and 2-a R state or fully oxygenated conformation, which is referred to as 'oxyhemoglobin'. The sequential model of cooperativity states that the conformation of a multimeric protein changes with each binding of a ligand, thereby sequentially changing its affinity for the ligand (i.e., cooperativity is dependent on ligand-induced). In consequence, this model states that the conformational state and affinity of Hb monomers change as they bind to oxygen.

Answer:
This question lacks options, options are:
A) glial cell
B) interneuron
C) sensory neuron
D) motor neuron.
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
The brain sends instructions to the muscles that control voluntary movement through nerve cells called motor neurons. The function of the motor neuron is basically to carry the information that comes from the descending pathways of the spinal cord, in order to generate an activation in the tissues of the skeletal and visceral muscles of all parts of the body. Motor neurons need the information sent to them by sensory or efferent neurons. Since in order to perform the appropriate muscle movements for the situation, our brain must receive information from the outside. By sending sensory stimulation through interoreceptors, motor neurons can regulate visceral activity, stimulating or inhibiting the activity of their effector tissues. In this way, our nervous system integrates the information from both types of neurons and allows us to move and react according to the demands and circumstances of our external context.
