Answer:
C. It reduces the percentage of recombinats
Explanation:
When linkage between two genes increases, the chance of these two crossing over is reduced, because linkage keeps these particular genes together, unlike crossing voer which will mix them up.
Ecologists are interested in quantifying different kinds of biodiversity. In below study outlined here, which kind of biodiversity are ecologists studying?
Ecologists establish 20 small areas, called plots, randomly scattered across a California grassland. They count the number of different plant species present in each plot. By noting how many species appear in the plots, the ecologists are able to estimate the number of species in the entire grassland.
a. Genetic diversity
b. Functional diversity
c. Ecosystem diversity
d. Species diversity
Answer:
d. Species diversity
Explanation:
The species diversity can be measured by:
Species richness: Refers to the number of species are inhabiting a defined area. Species abundance: Describe the distribution of the species abundance.Species richness is the number of species present in a sample, within a community, habitat or microhabitat, ecosystem, landscape, region or any well-defined spatial unit. It is a metric for measuring biodiversity which simplicity and easy interpretation make it a standard metric. It is the simplest and straightforward measure of biodiversity. It is just a count of species, with no need for abundance data. In some cases, this can be the cause of criticism, as it ignores information about the species-abundance distribution.

Predict a change in the Earth's surface or effect observed at each of the following for
1 point each:
- TRANSFORM BOUNDARY
- DIVERGENT BOUNDARY
- CONVERGENT BOUNDARY
Answer:
Divergent boundaries occur along spreading centers where plates are moving apart and new crust is created by magma pushing up from the mantle. Picture two giant conveyor belts, facing each other but slowly moving in opposite directions as they transport newly formed oceanic crust away from the ridge crest.
Perhaps the best known of the divergent boundaries is the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. This submerged mountain range, which extends from the Arctic Ocean to beyond the southern tip of Africa, is but one segment of the global mid-ocean ridge system that encircles the Earth. The rate of spreading along the Mid-Atlantic Ridge averages about 2.5 centimeters per year (cm/yr), or 25 km in a million years. This rate may seem slow by human standards, but because this process has been going on for millions of years, it has resulted in plate movement of thousands of kilometers. Seafloor spreading over the past 100 to 200 million years has caused the Atlantic Ocean to grow from a tiny inlet of water between the continents of Europe, Africa, and the Americas into the vast ocean that exists today.

Rheumatoid arthritis is commonly associated with the presence of rheumatoid factor autoantibodies in the bloodstream. This indicates that rheumatoid arthritis is likely to be a. an infective process. b. caused by bacterial infection. c. an autoimmune process. d. because of an enzymatic defect.
Answer:
The correct answer is - c. an autoimmune process
Explanation:
Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease or condition that affects the joints mainly by swollen, and painful joints. It is an autoimmune disease as the person's own immune system attacks the body.
The presence of rheumatoid factor autoantibodies states that it is an autoimmune process. There are other autoantibodies also associated with this type of arthritis that are rheumatoid factors (RF), anti‐keratin antibodies (AKA), anti‐filaggrin antibodies (AFA), and anti‐perinuclear factor (APF).

Alleles are described as ____________________. homologous chromosomes homologous chromosomes alternate versions of a gene alternate versions of a gene alternate phenotypes alternate phenotypes environmental factors that affect gene expression
Answer:
The correct answer is - alternate versions of a gene.
Explanation:
In a cell, if there are two copies of each chromosome, these are called homologous chromosomes, one come from the father and the other comes from the mother, which helps in promoting the variety and stability of a species.
Different or alternate versions of genes are possible that can result in two phenotypes for the same trait, these alternate versions called alleles. Alleles can be dominant and recessive.

Which statement is true of human cultures? O A. All human societies share the same cultural traits and practices. O B. Every human has a unique set of cultural traits and practices. O C. Culture includes a society's knowledge, customs, and achievements. O D. Cultures are groups of people united by blood relationships. SUBMIT
Answer:
B. Every human has a unique set of cultural traits and practices.
Explanation:
Culture can be defined as the general way of life of a group of people living together in a particular location or society.
Basically, culture comprises of beliefs, values, behaviors, language, dressing, cuisine, music, symbols, arts, social habits, knowledge, customs, laws pertaining to a particular group of people living together in a society.
This ultimately implies that, culture are acquired and passed from one generation to another.
A cultural trait can be defined as the smallest characteristics of human activity (actions) that is mainly acquired socially and transmitted from one generation to another through various modes of communication.
This ultimately implies that, these unique behavioral informations or characteristics and beliefs acquired by people socially are transmitted from one individual or group of people to another.
Hence, the statement which is true of human cultures is that every human (race) has a unique set of cultural traits and practices that were acquired from the environment and society.
During frog gastrulation, involution occurs at the Group of answer choices endometrium. blastopore blastocoel. trophoblast. archenteron.
Answer:
blastopore
Explanation:
Involution is the second stage after invagination during frog gastrulation. Involution occurs at the blastopore when the marginal zone cells get to the tip of the blastopore, make an inward turn and then move along the inner exterior of the outer cells sheets.
This means that the cells found at the lip of the blastopore and always undergoing change and the first of these cells to develop into the dorsal lip are the endodermal cells. Next are the mesoderm cells that form the Notochord.

Fire and Mello conducted an experiment where they added no gene X RNA (b), anti-sense gene X RNA (c) or double stranded gene X RNA (d) to C. elegans embryos. They then did a hybridization experiment examining gene X mRNA levels in the embryo. Square (a) is a no probe control. How does this act as a control
Answer:
The correct answer is - It shows that an RNA probe is necessary to get a signal.
Explanation:
A probe is a specific single-stranded sequence of DNA or RNA that recognizes its complementary sequence in a particular sample genome for synthesis. The RNA probe is placed into close contact with the given sample under a specific environment that allows the RNA probe sequence to hybridize with its complementary sequence.
In this case, square a is the condition where no RNA probe is persent whereas all three other conditions have some sort of RNA probe, however, in C there is no Gene X probe but their probe present. To get a signal in hybridization RNA probe is required and that can be used as control as it can be used to compare if a signal is received or not.
Assume similar data for the motion of the blood in a carotid artery which connects the aorta to the brain. Estimate how many beats of the heart it will it take the blood to get from your aorta to your brain. (Assume that the distance from your aorta to your brain is 30 cm.)
Answer:
4 beats
Explanation:
The number of beats of the heart that will take blood from Aorta to The Brain
n = Distance from Aorta to brain / distance per beat
Given that distance per beat = 7.5 cm ( calculated value outside scope of question using the data attached below)
n = 30 cm / 7.5 cm
= 4 beats
What is the mechanism by which binding of testosterone to the testosterone receptor leads to upregulated gene transcription
Answer:
This binding causes a conformational change in the receptor which enters into the nucleus and binds DNA to activate transcription
Explanation:
Testosterone is a steroid hormone responsible for inducing protein synthesis and growth of tissues with androgen receptors. Testosterone receptors, also known as androgen receptors, are a class of nuclear receptors activated by binding androgenic hormones (e.g. testosterone) in the cytoplasm, whose binding induces a conformational change of the receptors that are subsequently translocated to the nucleus. Within the cell nucleus, these activated receptors form homodimers that bind DNA in order to promote the transcription of target genes capable of regulating cell growth, cell cycle progression and survival.
