Answer:

Three Reasons

Explanation:

1, due to the genome. By birth, there is a biologically higher percentage of body fat in women.

2, unemployment. As normally in a South African household, it is the man that goes out to work while the women stay at home. loss of mobility means the accumulation of fats.

3, Males' major sex hormone is testosterone, and females have high levels of estrogen and progesterone in their blood. Females build up fat more easily than males.

Write an essay on ectoparasites​<br> Example of ectoparasites
sesenic [268]

Answer:

Ectoparasites are organisms that live on the skin of a host, from which they derive their sustenance. The phylum Arthropoda includes the two-winged, or dipterous, flies. The larvae or maggots of these flies may invade the living or necrotic tissue of animals and humans, producing myiasis. Multiple dipterous flies are thought to be capable of producing ocular myiasis. It is thought that the larvae are embedded in the eye, that they burrow directly through the sclera and then under the retina. Typically, they leave asymptomatic tracks throughout the fundus, but a number of cases of destructive endophthalmitis have been reported, particularly from Scandinavia.

A mouse geneticist selected for increased 12-day litter weight (total weight of a litter of offspring 12 days after birth) in a
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

12-day litter weight is a trait that has an important genetic influence and therefore also a high response to selection

Explanation:

Heritability is a statistical measure of how much of the variation in a given trait can be attributed to genetic differences and how much of trait variation is due to environmental factors. A heritability value close to 1 indicates that almost all of the variability is due to genetic factors, while being poorly influenced by environmental factors. In this case, 12-day litter weight is a trait that exhibits an important genetic component (i.e., a high heritability value), thereby the correlation between parent and offspring will be high and lines selected for this trait will show a high response to selection.
