Your welcome :)
trinity 16 is b
Which of these are you uncertain about? I can see that #4 and #11 are wrong, but am not going to read all 20 of them.
woah woah woah...chill... i just need someone to check my answers...
just a check would be nice, you don't have to tell me the answers
Okay, 4 and 11, 14, are wrong. I don't know about 10 and 16. The others appear to be correct.
thanks
She's right! and number 16 is B) reproductive gland
Gotta say #16 is a hard question. I've seen many peeps debate whether it is A, B, or C
We can rule out A in fact, since the thymus gland is some part of the chest that produces things for the immune system, like T cells.
We can also take out the thyroid gland as that does something with growth and metabolism.
So, it leaves us with B as a best answer. Search up the "Endocrine System" at "KidsHealth . org" and go to page 4 in it. It talks about that gland, and how it produces TESTOSTERONE, the main factor in producing acne, or pimples e3e
So yea hope this all helps you dudes with this question :D
Trinity is correct, and 16 is B. Thanks Jake and Trinity. :)
I just came on here to see if my answers were right, and they were! Thanks @Jake for posting the question and thanks @Trinity @MsHemmoPenguin for giving the answers! Thanks guys! Peace✌🏽️
Trinity is right I made a 95% because on 16 she didn't have it so 16 is B Thank you so much!!
Trinity IS right, and 16 IS the letter B! Trust me, it's reproductive gland. You'll regret it if you don't choose hers and not get a 100.
I accidentally chose D instead of C for #6, which was MY fault for not thoroughly checking, but I still got a 95.2%! A solid A+!
