Answer the following question given this paragraph: Carnivores are animals that eat other animals. The word carnivore is derived from Latin and literally means "meat eater. " Wild cats such as lions, shown in Figure 34.3a and tigers are examples of vertebrate carnivores, as are snakes and sharks, while invertebrate carnivores include sea stars, spiders, and ladybugs, shown in Figure 34.3b. Obligate carnivores are those. Q: Carnivores are animals that eat other animals. the word carnivore is derived from latin and literally means this? Choices: - amount eater - thick eater - leaf eater - meat eater A:
meat eater

Q: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Myelin The insulation for axons in the nervous system is provided by glial cells, oligodendrocytes in the CNS, and Schwann cells in the PNS. Whereas the manner in which either cell is associated with the axon segment, or segments, that it insulates is different, the means of myelinating an axon segment is mostly the same in the two situations. Myelin is a lipid-rich sheath that surrounds the axon and by doing so creates a myelin sheath that facilitates the transmission of electrical signals along the axon. The lipids are essentially the phospholipids of the glial cell membrane. Myelin, however, is more than just the membrane of the glial cell. It also includes important proteins that are integral to that membrane. Some of the proteins help to hold the layers of the glial cell membrane closely together. The appearance of the myelin sheath can be thought of as similar to the pastry wrapped around a hot dog for "pigs in a blanket" or a similar food. The glial cell is wrapped around the axon several times with little to no cytoplasm between the glial cell layers. For oligodendrocytes, the rest of the cell is separate from the myelin sheath as a cell process extends back toward the cell body. A few other processes provide the same insulation for other axon segments in the area. For Schwann cells, the outermost layer of the cell membrane contains cytoplasm and the nucleus of the cell as a bulge on one side of the myelin sheath. During development, the glial cell is loosely or incompletely wrapped around the axon (Figure 12.13a). The edges of this loose enclosure extend toward each other, and one end tucks under the other. The inner edge wraps around the axon, creating several layers, and the other edge closes around the outside so that the axon is completely enclosed. Q: What is the lipid-rich sheath that surrounds the axon and facilitates the transmission of electrical signals along the axon? Choices: - axon sheath - neural sheath - receptors sheath - myelin sheath A:
A: myelin sheath
Question: Answer the following question given this paragraph: Chromosomal alterations are mutations that change chromosome structure. They occur when a section of a chromosome breaks off and rejoins incorrectly or does not rejoin at all. Possible ways these mutations can occur are illustrated in Figure below . Go to this link for a video about chromosomal alterations: http://www. youtube. com/watch?v=OrXRSqa_3lU (2:18). Q: Chromosomal alterations are mutations that change what? Choices: - Skeleton Structure - detected structure - discovery structure - chromosome structure A:
Answer: chromosome structure

Answer the following question given this paragraph: Rock bands often use special stage effects, like the fake fog in this picture. Real fog forms when water vapor in the air condenses into tiny droplets of water. The fake fog shown here formed when solid carbon dioxide changed directly to carbon dioxide gas. Q: What is formed when water vapor in the air condenses into tiny droplets? Choices: - smoke - rain - hail - fog A:
fog
