Answer:
d. transports blood, water and nutrients to all parts of the body.
Explanation:
Use your completed Fossil Primate Chart (on pp. 393–394) to answer the following questions. What geographic region(s) have numerous fossil primate discoveries? Why might fossil primates be common in these places? Identify one geographic region that has few or no fossil primates. Why might fossil primates be rare here? Choose one strepsirhine-like fossil primate and one haplorhine-like fossil primate, and list at least two traits that distinguish them. What do these traits suggest about their classification and relationship to living primates? Choose any two haplorhine-like fossil primates and list at least two traits that distinguish them. What do these traits suggest about their classification and relationship to living primates?
Answer:
Africa, Madagascar, Asia, and the New World.
Explanation:
Africa, Madagascar, Asia, and the New World are the geographic regions have numerous fossil primate discoveries. Fossil primates to be rare in the temperate regions because only a small fraction of the primates that have ever lived has been preserved as fossils due to of climatic and geological conditions of the region. The strepsirhines like fossil primate containing wet-nosed primates, whereas haplorhines like fossil primate containing dry-nosed primates. These traits suggest that the living primates are evolved from these extent primates so that's why they are classified in the same phylum.
2. Polar molecules and ions need a transport protein to
diffuse across the cell membrane.
TRUE
FALSE
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Only small hydrophobic nonplar molecules can go through the hydrophobic interior of the phospholipid bilayer. Therefore, polar molecules and ions need transport proteins to diffuse across the cell membrane, also called facilitated diffusion. An example is water, which is polar, and through osmosis diffuses through transport proteins called aquaporins.
