Answer:

hormonal

Explanation:

Hormonal contraception is the most effective short-term contraceptive method and consists essentially of the administration of naturally occurring hormone-like synthetics produced by the ovaries which, among other actions, inhibit pituitary gonadotropin production and, consequently, ovarian follicle maturation and ovulation. Although the hormonal products used have other effects that hinder the conception and eventual uterine implantation of a fertilized egg, this method is based on "misleading" the axis of the hypothalamus and pituitary gland.

Answer:

D variations in individuals are not heritable

Explanation:

Genetic variation in individuals is what drives evolution. In a population of individuals in an environment, with the adequate resources, overpopulation can occur. However, resources are usually a limiting factor for population growth: there is not sufficient food/shelter etc. for everyone to survive.

Some individuals are better suited to success in the environment. This is because of random variation in their DNA that has arisen that give them a selective advantage. This allows them to thrive, take advantage of the limited resources over other members of the population, and be more likely to survive to reproductive age. This is natural selection.

Because this variation is genetic (in the DNA), they can then pass it on to their offspring. Over time, this leads to evolution over time.

Which of the following statements about the development of infectious diseases is correct?

zalisa [80]

The period of Convalescence is the time during which the person regains health and fully recovers.

Explanation:

Diseases that can spread from one person to other are called infectious disease.
Disease development is divided into Incubation period, Prodromal period, period of illness, Decline period, and period of Convalescence.
During incubation period the pathogen enters the host body and starts multiplying itself. But the signs of diseases are unnoticeable.
Then comes the prodromal period, when the pathogen keeps multiplying itself and some signs of disease are observed but they are not obvious
After the prodromal period comes the period of illness when the patient exhibits obvious signs of sickness.
As the period of illness is over the symptoms of disease start to cease and the the number of pathogen decrease in body.This period is the period of decline.
Finally comes the period of Convalescence when the person returns to his pre-disease state and is completely healthy. (except irreversible damage caused by the disease)
