Question 1

Question 2

Figure 35.5&#10;  &#10;What type of skeleton is found in an earthworm, as illustrated in the accompanying figure?&#8203;&#10;A) &#8203;cartilaginous&#10;B) &#8203;bone&#10;C) &#8203;hydrostatic&#10;D) &#8203;chitinous&#10;E) exoskeleton&#8203;

Accepted Answer

The illustrated skeleton in the earthworm appears to be a hydrostatic skeleton, which uses fluid pressure to provide support for the animal's body. This type of skeleton is common in invertebrates such as cnidarians, flatworms, and annelids like earthworms. Cartilaginous and bone skeletons are found in vertebrates, while chitinous skeletons are found in arthropods, such as insects and crustaceans. Exoskeletons are also chitinous and are found on the exterior of arthropods.

Question 3

Figure 35.5&#10;  &#10;Which of the following does NOT have an exoskeleton?&#8203;&#10;A) &#8203;lobsters&#10;B) &#8203;spiders&#10;C) &#8203;insects&#10;D) &#8203;earthworms&#10;E) &#8203;centipedes

Accepted Answer

Earthworms do not have an exoskeleton. They have a thin, moist outer layer called a cuticle, but it is not as rigid and protective as an exoskeleton.

Question 4

Bully whippets are abnormally heavily muscled because _____.&#10;A) &#8203;they have a over-abundance of testosterone&#10;B) &#8203;they have an over-abundance of growth hormone&#10;C) &#8203;they are heterozygous for the deletion in the myostatin gene&#10;D) &#8203;they are homozygous for the wild-type myostatin gene&#10;E) they are homozygous for the deletion in the myostatin gene&#8203;

Accepted Answer

Bully whippets are homozygous for the deletion in the myostatin gene, which leads to reduced inhibition of muscle growth, resulting in increased muscle mass.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

A bursa is a small fluid-filled sac that helps reduce friction between two surfaces in the body, such as a bone and a tendon or ligament. The bursa located between the knee cap (patella) and the femur is called the prepatellar bursa or the "housemaid's knee" bursa. It helps cushion and protect the knee joint during movement.
