1. Nucleotides: A phosphate group, a 5-carbon sugar, and a nitrogenous base are the three components of a nucleotide. Adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine are the four nitrogenous bases in DNA. Instead of thymine, uracil is found in RNA. The genetic material of all known living creatures is made up of nucleotides in a chain.

2. Genes:  A gene is a small segment of a lengthy DNA double helix molecule that consists of a linear base pair sequence. A gene is any portion of DNA that contains instructions that allow a cell to generate a specific product – usually a protein, such as an enzyme – that performs a single specified action.

3. A locus (plural loci) is a stable location on a chromosome where a certain gene or genetic marker can be found.

4.  At a genomic region, an allele is one of two or more variations of DNA sequence (a single base or a segment of nucleotides).

5.  Chromosomes are thread-like structures found within the nucleus of both animal and plant cells. Protein and a single molecule of deoxyribonucleic acid make up each chromosome (DNA). DNA is passed along from parents to children and carries the precise instructions that distinguish each living thing.

6.  Karyotype: A karyotype is a individual's entire set of chromosomes. A laboratory-produced representation of a person's chromosomes extracted from an individual cell and arranged in numerical order is also known as a chromosomal map. A karyotype can be used to check for chromosomal number or structural problems.

8. Genotype: An organism's genotype is its genetic makeup. From embryonic development to adulthood, the genotype determines an individual's inherited potentials and limitations. In se×ually reproducing organisms, a person's genotype is made up of the whole set of genes acquired from both parents.

9. Phenotype: Physical traits are described by phenotypes. It encompasses both apparent (such as hair or eye color) and measured characteristics (like height or weight). Characteristics relevant to your development and behavior, such as personality traits, are also referred to as phenotypes.

(1)

Troposphere – This is the densest layer and where weather events occur

Stratosphere – This is where the ozone layer is found. Some high altitude aircraft cruise in this layer.

Mesosphere – Temperatures drop with altitude in this layer

Thermosphere – This is where most of the meteorites that enter the earth’s atmosphere burn up. This layer takes up most of the Uv and X-rays from the sun. Most satellites orbiting earth are in this layer

Exosphere – almost akin to space due to the thinness of the layer. Molecules in the layer often escape into space

(2)

A ‘pause’ is a transition between the above-mentioned distinct layers. The tropopause, for example, occurs between the troposphere and the stratosphere and the stratopause between the stratosphere and mesosphere and thermopause is found between thermosphere and exosphere.

(3)

A temperature inversion is a rise in temperatures with altitude in a layer in the atmosphere. One layer exhibiting temperature inversion is the stratosphere. This is due to the ozone layer that absorbs UV light. The upper ozone absorbs most of the UV light, than lower ozone, exciting the molecules and making the higher altitudes in the layer to be warmer.

(4)

The ozone layer protects life on earth from the high energy UV radiation from the sun. UV is capable of causing double-stranded break on DNA resulting in genetic mutations on organisms. Most of these would be lethal. The Ozone absorbs most of the UV before it reaches earth's surface. Ozone is formed when an oxygen molecule reacts with another oxygen atom to form an O₃. The oxygen atoms are made from the splitting of an oxygen molecule by UV light.

State the meaning of the red blood cell count, percentage of reticulocytes, hemoglobin, hematocrit, mean corpuscular volume, and
saveliy_v [14]

Answer: Red blood cell count is a diagnostic blood test used to determine the amount of red blood cells an individual has.

Percentage of reticulocytes refers to the amount of immature red blood cells one has.

Hemoglobin is the protein component of red blood cells responsible for carrying oxygen.

Hematocrit is the proportion of red blood cells in the total volume of blood.

Mean corpuscular volume refers to the mean volume of red cells within an organism.

Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration refers the intracellular hemoglobin count.

Explanation: Anemia is a condition that is characterized by a reduced total hemoglobin count or number of red blood cells. Anemia can be classified according to various factors that include pathophysiology, that is the factors surrounding the onset of the condition or by cell size, which  refers to mean corpuscular volume (MCV) or by the amount hemoglobin, which is referred to as the mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH). The diagnosis of anemia is dependent on red blood cell counts which encompass reticulocyte, platelets and leukocyte counts. Critical blood counts that look at MCV and MCH are a disgnostic feature for the various types of the condition. A high reticulocytes percentage is often associated with anemia.
