difference between the gametes and zygote

gametes is a germ cell wiht only 23 chromosome, zygote is a single cell containing a full 46 chromosemes

function of the ear

function of the endocine system

it works together with the nervous system to control and coordinate all other body systems.

main parts of the urinary system

kidney, ureters, bladder, and urethra

gas diffusion

lungs

difference between mitosis and meiosis

mitosis is your normal cell division resulting in the same exact cell, in contrast meiosis goes through a specieal cell divison which valves the number of chromosomes from 46 to 23 chromosanes

dura mater, arachniod, pia meter

function of the kidneys

excretion removal and elimnation of metabolic waste from the blood

function of the skeletal system

frame work for the body, protects delicate body, protects delicate structures and organs, serves as a lever for muscles, stores calcium, produces red blood cells.

difference between glycolysis and oxidation in terms of process and yield

glycosis is anaerobic and id 1st phase of catabolic process in which glycose is broken down for energy yielding 2 atp. Oxidation is the 2nd phase of the catabolic process in which oxygen aerobic is used to bind with hydrgern to form carbon dixide and water yielding 34-36 atp
