The risk of schizophrenia among biological relatives is greatest for identical twins. This is a true statement.

<h3>What is schizophrenia?</h3>

Schizophrenia is a neurological disorder that causes an affected individual to lose touch of reality.

Schizophrenia can be caused by the following:

  • Genetics: Gene defects caused by mutation such as deletions or duplications of genetic material increases risk of schizophrenia.

  • Environment: Urbanicity, migration, cannabis, childhood traumas, infectious agents, obstetrical complications and psychosocial factors

  • Brain chemistry and circuit

  • Brain abnormalities: Impaired communication between brain regions leads to the associated symptoms and cognitive changes.

According to research, the risk of schizophrenia among biological relatives is greatest for identical twins because they are genetically identical.

recessive genes are not expressed if a dominant allele is present but with be expressed if the no dominant allele is present.

If you do a cross test you can determine the percentage.

Hagatha is heterozygous meaning non identical allele like Dd or dD and the other is homzygous recessive meaning that it has identical allele like DD or dd but it's recessive so it's dd.

This represents what type of succession?
NeX [460]

B

Secondary succession means the regrowth in an ecosystem that already existed, after a disaster such as floods, fire, and etcetera. This is as opposed to primary succession whereby a new ecosystem is developed where none existed initially, usually on a new substrate.

Explanation:

In the picture on the left looks like a picture of a forest decimated by fire. On the right is a picture of the grass growing on the forest floor. This probably due to the fact that the canopy of the forest was destroyed in the fire enabling sunlight to penetrate to the floe of the forest supporting vegetation growth. This secondary succession. The grass acts like pioneer species. Later, the forest floor will be colonized by perennial, and then woody plants and the ecosystem will be back to its normal state.
