D. sequenced 3 billion base pairs

Plzzz hurry im being timed ! humans, like other organisms, require energy for growth and repair. when cells create atp for energy, carbon dioxide is produced as a waste product. how does the body respond to this process in order to maintain homeostasis? a. the digestive and respiratory systems interact to move carbon dioxide to the lower intestine, where it is transformed into methane. b. the circulatory and digestive systems interact to move carbon dioxide to the stomach, where it to break down food. c. the nervous and urinary systems interact to move carbon dioxide to the kidneys, where it is absorbed into the bloodstream. d. the circulatory and respiratory systems interact to transport carbon dioxide to the lungs, where it is expelled from the body.

The tasmanian devil, a marsupial carnivore, is facing extinction due to devil facial tumor disease (dftd) which causes bulging cancerous lumps and lesions to erupt around the face and neck — often causing enough deformation to make seeing or eating difficult. dftd has evolved into a contagious cancer, a trait that is unique among cancers. devil mating behavior involves biting around the head and neck, allowing cells from one individual — especially cells from the crumbly dftd tumors — to be transferred to the wounds or face of a new individual. this marsupial was once found across australia, but sea levels rose, isolating the tasmanian population, while the australian population went extinct. what would be an outcome of genetic isolation that is likely to have impacted the spread of dftd? a) reduced territory puts diseased individuals in greater contact with non-diseased ones. b) inbreeding results in less variation in facial features so the cancer is generally fatal. c) genetic isolation has made it difficult for scientists to develop a vaccine against dftd. d) the lack of genetic variation in the immune system of tasmanian devils minimizes resistance to the disease.

The intervention of extraterrestrials has been used to explain the bermuda triangle, a region of the atlantic ocean where ships and planes are frequently lost, leaving no evidence behind. how would this explanation best be characterized?
