Answer:
Neuroimaging, or brain scanning, includes the use of various techniques ( Four of the most common types of brain scans are EEG, PET, MRI, and fMRI )to directly or indirectly image the structure, function, or pharmacology of the brain
Explanation:
Electroencephalography (EEG) is used to show brain activity under certain psychological states, such as alertness or drowsiness.
Positron emission tomography (PET) scans show brain processes by using the sugar glucose in the brain to illustrate where neurons are firing.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans use echo waves to discriminate among grey matter, white matter, and cerebrospinal fluid.
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans are a series of MRIs measuring brain function via a computer’s combination of multiple images taken less than a second apart. With this different scan it is possible for the function and structure of the brain to be determined.
I believe you meant 'selective breeding'.
Selecitve Breeding is when say a dog breeder, chooses two prospective parents in hopes of achieveing a superior offspring or offspring with desired traits.
Answer:
6 in total; 3 viable and 3 non-viable
Explanation:
Robertsonian translocation is one of the types of structural alteration in chromosomes, in other words, a rearrangement between chromosomes, which can occur between five pairs of acrocentric chromosomes (chromosomes with the centromere close to the end of one of the "arms"): 13, 14, 15, 21 and 22.
An individual who has Robertson's translocation between chromosomes 14 and 21 generally has only 45 chromosomes.
In addition, a carrier of this type of translocation can theoretically produce 6 types of gametes, however 3 of them are not viable.
As for the three remaining gametes: One is normal, and among the other two, one is balanced and the last is unbalanced.
So, theoretically, when combining a normal gamete, the probability of a child with down syndrome being born through these conditions is 1/3 (considering that the probability of producing a certain type of gamete is equal for the three types).
