What organelle is only associated with plant cells?

A. Kidneys makes urine, Kidney help regulate water balance.

B. As a person ages, kidney tissue and filtration capacity increase, Regulates levels of electrolytes such as sodium and potassium.

C. Eliminates metabolic wastes., Kidneys makes urine., Kidney help regulate water balance.

D. Kidney help regulate water balance, Regulates levels of electrolytes such as sodium and potassium, Eliminates metabolic wastes

Kidneys makes urine is incorrect. Kidneys do not make urine. They help regulate water balance, regulate levels of electrolytes such as sodium and potassium, and eliminate metabolic wastes. Urine is a byproduct of these functions.

As a person ages, kidney tissue and filtration capacity increase is incorrect. As a person ages, the kidneys and bladder change. This can affect functions such as bladder control and how well the kidneys filter blood. Kidney changes range from a decrease in kidney tissue to decreased filtration capacity.

Kidneys help regulate water balance is correct. Kidneys help regulate water balance, regulate levels of electrolytes such as sodium and potassium, and eliminate metabolic wastes. Urine is a byproduct of these functions.

Regulates levels of electrolytes such as sodium and potassium is correct. There must be a continual balance of water and salt in the blood. The urinary system, specifically the kidneys, help maintain this balance. It also balances levels of metabolites or electrolytes such as sodium, potassium, and calcium.

Eliminates metabolic wastes is correct. Urea, creatinine, uric acid, and ammonium are the primary types of nitrogenous wastes excreted from the body. The urinary system also detects and excretes excess water from the blood and out of the body.

A. antibody

B. pathogen

C. trigger

D. vaccination

Pathogen is an infectious foreign body that enters the body and causes disease or illness to the person. There are five types of pathogens: viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and worms. Pathogens have antigen proteins found on their surface and are unique to each pathogen.

Antibody is a protein produced by the body’s immune system when it detects harmful substances (antigens). There are many different antibodies found in the body. Each one is unique and protects the body against the specific antigen that it detects at any given time. If there are no antibodies for a specific antigen, the more likely you are to develop an illness.

Vaccinations are the introduction of a dead or disabled pathogen or of a harmless microbe with the protein of a pathogen on its surface into the body. Often administered through needle injection, to stimulate the immune system to produce immunity to a specific disease Immunity protects the body from a disease when exposed to it.

There are four types of immunity: natural/passive, natural/active, artificial/passive, and artificial/ active.

• Natural/passive – Babies receive immunities from breastmilk.
• Natural/active – The body produces antibodies to combat an illness when a person becomes sick.
• Artificial/passive – This immunity is temporary and requires doses of serum to maintain the immunity.
• Artificial/active – A vaccination provides artificial/active immunity.

A. leaves the aorta

B. fills the right atrium

C. reaches body tissues

D. flows through arteries

Blood continually flows in one direction, beginning in the heart and proceeding to the arteries, arterioles, and capillaries. When blood reaches the capillaries, exchanges occur between blood and tissues. After this exchange happens, blood is collected into venules, which feed into veins and eventually flow back to the heart’s atrium. The heart must relax between two heartbeats for blood circulation to begin.

Two types of circulatory processes occur in the body:

Systemic circulation

• The pulmonary vein pushes oxygenated blood into the left atrium.
• As the atrium relaxes, oxygenated blood drains into the left ventricle through the mitral valve. 3. The left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood to the aorta.
• Blood travels through the arteries and arterioles before reaching the capillaries that surround the tissues.

Pulmonary circulation

• Two major veins, the Superior Vena Cava and the Inferior Vena Cava, brings deoxygenated blood from the upper and lower half of the body.
• Deoxygenated blood is pooled into the right atrium and then sent into the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve, which prevents blood from flowing backward.
• The right ventricle contracts, causing the blood to be pushed through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary artery.
• Deoxygenated blood becomes oxygenated in the lungs.
• Oxygenated blood returns from the lungs to the left atrium through the pulmonary veins.

A. Connective

B. Epithelial

C. Muscle

D. Neural

A tissue is a group of cells with similar structure and function and similar extracellular substances located between the cells. The table below describes the four primary tissues found in the human body.

body.

A. A student reads about a new way to harness energy from the sun.

B. A researcher studies the effects of car exhaust on how people breathe.

C. A researcher analyzes how many plants respond well to a new fertilizer

D. A student discovers how insulin plays a role in the development of diabetes

One step of the scientific method is to analyze information or data collected from the experiment to conclude whether the hypothesis is supported.

Recall that these make up the scientific method, described below:

• Problem: The question created because of an observation. Example: Does the size of a plastic object affect how fast it naturally degrades in a lake?
• Research: Reliable information available about what is observed. Example: Learn how plastics are made and understand the properties of a lake.
• Hypothesis: A predicted solution to the question or problem. Example: If the plastic material is small, then it will degrade faster than a large particle.
• Experiment: A series of tests used to evaluate the hypothesis. Experiments consist of an independent variable that the researcher modifies and a dependent variable that changes due to the independent variable. They also include a control group used as a standard to make comparisons. 
  • Example: Collect plastic particles both onshore and offshore of the lake over time. Determine the size of the particles and describe the lake conditions during this time period.
• Observe: Analyze data collected during an experiment to observe patterns. 
  • Example: Analyze the differences between the numbers of particles collected in terms of size.
• Conclusion: State whether the hypothesis is rejected or accepted and summarize all results.
• Communicate: Report findings so others can replicate and verify the results.

A. genotype

B. phenotype

C. transcription

D. translation

The phenotype is the physical appearance of an organism, and the genotype is the set of alleles.

Mendel’s Theory of Heredity

To explain his results, Mendel proposed a theory that has become the foundation of the science of genetics. The theory has five elements:

• Parents do not transmit traits directly to their offspring. Rather, they pass on units of information called genes.
• For each trait, an individual has two factors: one from each parent. If the two factors have the same information, the individual is homozygous for that trait. If the two factors are different, the individual is heterozygous for that trait. Each copy of a factor, or gene, is called an allele.
• The alleles determine the physical appearance, or phenotype. The set of alleles an individual has is its genotype.
• An individual receives one allele from each parent.
• The presence of an allele does not guarantee that the trait will be expressed

A. 14 protons, 14 neutrons, 18 electrons

B. 34 protons, 45 neutrons, 36 electrons

C. 35 protons, 44 neutrons, 35 electrons

D. 82 protons, 125 neutrons, 78 electrons

Because it has more protons than electrons, this atom has a positive charge and can be classified as a cation. When a metal such as sodium reacts to become stable, it loses its valence electrons. At first, it is a neutral atom with 11 protons and 11 electrons. When it loses an electron, the number of protons does not change, and the atom has 11 protons and 10 electrons. Because there is one more positively charged proton, a cation forms. A cation is an ion with a net positive charge.

A. Urinary system

B. Digestive system

C. Muscular system

D. Cardiovascular system

The cardiovascular system is closely associated with hematopoiesis because it includes the heart and blood vessels, which are responsible for circulating blood throughout the body. Hematopoiesis, the process of blood cell formation, primarily occurs in the bone marrow, which is part of the skeletal system. However, the cardiovascular system plays a crucial role in transporting these blood cells to various parts of the body once they are produced in the bone marrow.

So, while the skeletal system provides the site for hematopoiesis, the cardiovascular system is responsible for distributing the blood cells, making it the most closely associated system in this context.

A. As a result, Mendel developed several theories that have since been disproved.

B. Mendel realized he was on an incorrect track, which led him to other experimental media

C. As a result, Mendel developed foundational conclusions that are still valued and followed today.

D. Mendel collaborated with others interested in genetics to develop heredity guidelines we still use today

Mendel developed theories of genetics that scientists around the world use today.

From experiments with garden peas, Mendel developed a simple set of rules that accurately predicted patterns of heredity. He discovered that plants either self-pollinate or cross-pollinate, when the pollen from one plant fertilizes the pistil of another plant. He also discovered that traits are either dominant or recessive. Dominant traits are expressed, and recessive traits are hidden.
