Answer from: jbainbynn3198

ANSWER:

In the animal kingdom mammals have largest natural breasts.

EXPLANATION:

Mammals have largest breasts in animals and specifically Blue Whale has the largest breasts but they are inside the body.Among other animals goats, cows and buffaloes have larger breasts too but surely not greater than the size of Blue Whale's.Breasts are organs in which mammary glands are present, these glands produce milk.

Answer from: iBrain

The blue whale is known to be the biggest as well as the heaviest mammary glands.

Explanation:

Blue whale or Balaenoptera musculus has a long and slender body and the body may be of various shades. They fall under the family which involves humpback whale, the fin whale, and minke whale. It is believed the whales family to have diverged from other families of suborder Mysticeti. They feed almost on krill and small numbers of copepods. Mating season starts in later autumn and continues till the end of the winter.

Out of all the animal species present on the earth, blue whale is known to have the largest mammary glands which are about 1.5 meters in length and weigh around 250 pounds. This is similar to the baby elephant and rather than that of the terrestrial mammal like breasts, whales comprise of mammary slits from where the baby whale nudges to suck out the milk.

Underwater mammary glands do not function like humans. This is because they do not have anything which resembles the breast of human. Secondly, all the whales comprise of inverted mammary gland which will only come out with the stimulation which is made by the baby whale. The milk is ejected from the breasts and not sucked.

On a backpacking trip, kenny hikes all day at a steady pace, covering 30 kilometers and burning 4000 calories. at the school track, janelle runs the 100-meter sprint in 13.5 seconds, burning 10 calories. afterward, janelle’s leg muscles are aching and she is breathing hard, while kenny maintains normal breathing all day, even though he burns 400 times more calories than janelle. which two statements offer the best explanation for this phenomenon? a. if the aerobic pathway—cellular respiration—cannot meet the energy demand, then the anaerobic pathway—lactic acid fermentation—starts up, resulting in lactic acid buildup and "oxygen debt." b. aerobic cellular respiration produces more energy, but its use is limited because of lactic acid buildup in the muscles and the resulting "oxygen debt." c. after about 90 seconds of intense exercise, the muscles become depleted of oxygen, and anaerobic respiration can no longer function to produce atp, resulting in "oxygen debt." d. the rate of energy demand determines how the muscles will obtain energy, either from cellular respiration or from lactic acid fermentation if not enough oxygen is present.
