Most land mammals have the ability to rest one hemisphere of their brains at a time. Please select the best answer from the choices provideda. True
b. False

Answers

Answer: b. False

Many mammals rests for a large proportion of the 24 hour. The rest period usually extent during hibernation. The marine mammals tend to rest or sleep with only one hemisphere is kept at rest. It allows them to keep one eye open this allows them to stay alert against the predators. But the terrestrial or land mammals when take rest both the hemispheres of the brain sleep.

On the basis of the above description, most land mammals have the ability to rest one hemisphere of their brains at a time is false.

The answer is false, I just took the quiz

Select the point of differentiation between the sporozoites and merozoitesa- The zygote of Plasmodium multiples in the gut of a mosquito forming the merozoites, whereas when merozoites multiply in human liver cells, they form spores called sporozoites.

c-The zygote of Plasmodium multiples in human liver cells forming the merozoites, whereas when merozoites multiply in the gut of a mosquito, they form spores called sporozoites.

Answers

"The zygote of Plasmodium multiples in the gut of a mosquito to form sporozoites, whereas when sporozoites multiply in human liver cells, they form spores called merozoites" is the point of differentiation between the Sporozoites and merozoites. The correct option among all the options given in the question is option "B". 

Answer:

The answer is B: "The zygote of Plasmodium multiples in the gut of a mosquito to form sporozoites, whereas when sporozoites multiply in human liver cells, they form spores called merozoites."

Explanation:

In Plasmodium, for example, the sporozoites are cells that produce in the mosquito's salivary glands, leave the mosquito during a blood meal, and drive liver cells (hepatocytes), where they generate. Cells infected with sporozoites ultimately burst, delivering merozoites into the bloodstream.  Merozoites are non-motile.A merozoite is a daughter cell of a protozoan parasite. Merozoites are the consequence of asexual propagation. Sporozoites are designed by sporogony, a type of sexual or asexual reproduction by multiple fission of a spore or zygote, representative of many sporozoans.
