Answer:
Whole brain death occurs when the BRAINSTEM ceases to function.
Explanation:
In the US, whole brain death = legal death. Most people consider that a person is brain dead when the cerebrum, or the higher brain, is dead because the person is not able to think or have control over his/her body, but legally you are brain dead only when the brainstem ceases to function. The brainstem is responsible for keeping you alive and performing the most basic bodily functions like breathing and keeping your heart beating. But once it fails, you are legally dead. Even if your body could still survive using a ventilator and other devices, your brain has ceased to work and you wouldn't be able to survive if you were unplugged.
I) Locus- the chromosomal site where a specific gene is located. A locus is a fixed position on a chromosome, like the position of a gene or a marker. Each chromosome carries ,many genes; human's estimated haploid (n) protein coding genes are about 20,000, on the 23 different chromosomes.
ii) Interference; the observed double crossover frequency differs from the expected double crossover frequency. Cross over interference is used to refer to the non-random placement of crossovers with respect to each other during meiosis. It results in widely spaced crossovers along chromosomes. Interference may exert its effect across whole chromosomes. As chromosomes in many eukaryotes are large, interference must be able to act over megabase lengths of DNA.
iii) Linkage- the tendency for genes located in close proximity on the same chromosome to be inherited together. Normally when two genes are close together on the same chromosome, they do not assort independently and are said to be linked. Whereas genes located on different chromosomes assort independently and have a recombination frequency of 50%, linked genes have a recombination frequency that is less than 50%.
iv) Recombination- the process by which a new pattern of alleles on a chromosome is generated. Genetic recombination is the production of offspring with combinations f traits that differ from those found in either parent. During meiosis in eukaryotes, genetic recombination involves the pairing of homologous chromosomes. This may be followed by information transfer between the chromosomes.
Answer:
C. Analyzing the data
Explanation:
I'm pretty sure it is this one, it is the only one that makes sense to me.
Answer:
When the sun's rays strike Earth's surface near the equator, the incoming solar radiation is more direct (nearly perpendicular or closer to a 90˚ angle). ... At higher latitudes, the angle of solar radiation is smaller, causing energy to be spread over a larger area of the surface and cooler temperatures.
Explanation:
Answer:
The correct answer would be "They are stored as fat".
In animals, the excess of carbohydrates or glucose is first converted into glycogen (polysaccharide) through the process called glycogenesis. It is then stored in the liver and skeletal muscles.
When glycogen reservoirs are saturated, excess carbohydrates, as well as proteins, are converted into fats which are then majorly stored in adipose tissues.
Adipose tissues serve as the long-term energy storage reservoirs.
