In Deuterostomes, nutrient molecules (monomers) are taken in to the space between the endoderm and the ectoderm because... A) The ectoderm makes protein for movement B) The endoderm cells release hydrolytic enzymes that act on polymers C) The endoderm releases enzymes that conduct dehydration synthesis of proteins D) mRNA polymerase causes hydrolysis of DNA E) All are correct
Explain why
Animals exhibiting external fertilisation produce a large number of gametes. Pick the appropriate reason from the following.
(a) The animals are small in size and want to produce more offsprings.
(b) Food is available in plenty in water.
(c) To ensure better chance of fertilisation.
(d) Water promotes production of large number of gametes.
Aquatic animals in which fertilisation occurs in water are said to be:
(a) viviparous without fertilisation.
(b) oviparous with external fertilisation.
(c) viviparous with internal fertilisation.
(d) oviparous with internal fertilisation.
