The statement that best describes he purpose of examining mammary secretions in mares before parturition is testing for elevated levels of calcium.
<h3>What is the processes of parturition in mares?</h3>
In parturition, a fetus is fully developed, a process called Ferguson reflex occurs to stimulate contractions. The canal is lubricated by a fluid called allanotic fluid and facilitates the discharge of the amnion and the fetus. A virginal distension releases oxytocin and more contractions.
For a mare to be ready for parturition, elevated levels of calcium is tested from the mammary gland to confirm that the mare is healthy and ready for parturition.

The answer is d b/c smaller cells will have greater surface area to volume ratio
Answer: No, mRNA ( messenger RNA) model does not closely resemble the DNA strand from which it is transcribed.
This is because mRNA strand is complementary to the strand of DNA template that is used in its synthesis during the process called transcription. The polarity of DNA template is 3' to 5' whereas that of mRNA transcribed is 5' to 3' that is both the strands have antiparallel polarity.
This is the reason template DNA is referred antisense. mRNA strand more closely resembles the sense strand ( which is complementary strand of DNA template in a double helix).
Answer:
The student is wrong, spermatozoa are germinal cells and therefore mitochondrial mutations (likewise genomic nuclear mutations) are inherited by offspring
Explanation:
Although the probabilities of inheriting a mutation from a single sperm cell are low, it since an organism produces millions of sperm cells throughout its life span, the mutations in the germinal cells (i.e., sperms and ovules) are inherited by offspring
Answer:
38 ATP.
Explanation:
Biology textbooks often state that 38 ATP molecules can be made per oxidized glucose molecule during cellular respiration (2 from glycolysis, 2 from the Krebs cycle, and about 34 from the electron transport system).
