The United Nations Conventions on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) stipulates that seabed area, which is not within the landmark of any particular country should be regarded as a common natural heritage. Consequently, any mineral found in such an area can be used by anyone. 

However, because of the abundant presence of sea area, and the way national boundaries often conflict, coupled with the problem of illegal mining practices, such laws are difficult to enforce, and so these regulations are not standardized yet.

Some possible impacts of ilegal seabed mining are:
1. Destabilisation of oceanic systems.
2. It constitutes danger to the organisms living in the hydrothermal vents.

What does it mean if a population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? Be specific.
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The Hardy-Weinberg law states that in a sufficiently large population, in which matings occur randomly and that is not subject to mutation, selection or migration, gene and genotypic free frequencies are kept constant from one generation to another, once a state of equilibrium has been reached, which in autosomal loci is reached after one generation.

It is said that a population is in equilibrium when the alleles of the polymorphic systems maintain their frequency in the population throughout the generations.

Prader-Willi syndrome is a genetic disorder involving a partial deletion of chromosome 15q on the paternal chromosome. When both
Kay [80]

Answer:

genomic imprinting

Explanation:

Genomic imprinting is a mechanism for regulating gene expression that allows expression of only one of the parental alleles, although both alleles are functional. Unlike most genes in which expression is biallelic, genes that are subjected to this mechanism (imprinted genes) have monoalelic expression; By definition, in an imprinted loci, only one allele is active (maternal or paternal), and the inactive is epigenetically marked by histonic modification and / or methylation of cytosines.

Genomic imprinting can cause some disturbances, among them Prader-Willi syndrome, which is a genetic disorder that involves a partial deletion of chromosome 15q on the paternal chromosome.

What facts can you compile that would support a theory that multicellular eukaryotes developed from unicellular prokaryotes?
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Multicellular eukaryotes evolved from unicellular prokaryotes by the process of endosymbiosis

Explanation:

All living beings have evolved from three groups of animals closely related with each other.Domains: Archaea,bacteria and eukarya.the archaea and bacteria are unicellular organism surrounded by single cell water and  and coiled stand of DNA. Eukaryotic cells are more complex and with a linear  strand of DNA which is in the nucleus. Actually mitochondria which had evolved from a free living bacterium which was swallowed by another cell. The host cell benefited from the chemical energy that mitochondria produced and mitochondria in turn is benefited to be inside the protected environment. Mitochondria is the main organelle which the multicellular eukaryotes with unicellular prokaryotes.
