The most significant relic of this species is an upper femur that reveals indications of bone development typical of a biped, indicating that Orrorin tugenensis individuals likely walked upright on two legs while simultaneously climbing trees.

A hypothetical early Hominin species called Orrorin tugenensis was identified in 2000 and is thought to have existed between 6.1 and 5.7 million years ago. How Orrorin is connected to contemporary humans is unknown. Although this remains the most popular theory of human evolution as of 2012, its discovery was used to refute the idea that australopithecines are human forebears. The name of the only classified species, O. tugenensis, comes from the Tugen Hills in Kenya, where the first fossil was discovered in 2000. The name of the genus Orrorin (plural Orroriek) means "original man" in Tugen. Twenty fossils of the species have been discovered as of 2007.

If you treated embryos with a Notch inhibitor how would this affect the specification of venous and arterial endothelial cells?
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

d. all endothelial cells would be venous

Explanation:

The Notch signaling pathway is a cell signaling system which consist basically of 4 NOTCH genes ( NOTCH1, NOTCH2, NOTCH3, and NOTCH4) each of them having the information to build a particular cell membrane receptor protein.

It has been demonstrated in zebrafish embryos that Notch signaling are highly determinant factors during vascular development, and a key function of these genes was specifically to regulate the differentiation of arterial fate in endothelial cells.

Notch signaling-deficient embryos showed a loss of expression of arterial markers such as ephrinB2 from arterial vessels with an accompanying expansion of venous markers into normally arterial domains. In contrast, embryos in which Notch signaling had been ectopically activated, meaning an activation out of "proper" place (where not expected, e.g. venous endothelial), exhibited the contrary phenotype, this is a suppression of vein-specific markers with ectopic expression of arterial markers in venous vessels.

To summarize, when Notch is supressed (in this case inhibited with a specific Notch inhibitor) arterial fate of endothelium is not followed, and venous fate is stablished. Thus, endothelial cells (those expected to form venous tissues but also arterial ones) would specified as venous.

Need right now will mark brainliest if right
mezya [45]

Answer:

The third diagram shows Refraction of waves.

Explanation:

Refraction is a phenomenon, which occurs in a wave when it travels from one medium to another medium, and during Refraction there is slight or greater change in direction of the wave.

hence, the wave will pass through the surface and displaces from its actual path.

that's why the most appropriate diagram showing Refraction is third one ( c ) .

magine you are trying to determine the phenotypic ratio of hair color. Brown (B) hair color is the dominant trait and blonde (b)
skad [1K]

Answer:

1:1 (brown:blonde)

Explanation:

Brown hair color (B) is dominant over blonde hair color (b).

Heterozygous parent will have the genotype Bb

Homozygous recessive parent will have the genotype bb.

Crossing hetezygous parent with homozygous recessive parent:

Bb   x   bb

Progeny: Bb, Bb, bb, and bb.

2 Bb brown hair

2 bb blonde hair

Phenotypic ratio = 1:1 (brown:blonde)

The correct answer is  1:1 (brown:blonde).
