What is the purpose of scientific probes? They help astronomers see distant galaxies with the naked eye. They enable ordinary ci

tizens to make scientific observations. They allow scientists to measure features such as flow rate and conductivity. They teach meteorologists how to record air and wind pressure.

Answer:

Option D, They teach meteorologists how to record air and wind pressure.

Explanation:

A probe is a device which is used to explore space and collect information.  It is an unpiloted device that consists of scientific equipment’s and instruments to study about the atmosphere , composition and other physical components of planets and others celestial bodies.  

A probe transmits information from space through radio. A probe must be able to collect information even from extreme environmental conditions.  

Hence, option D is correct.

A neuron can receive thousands of EPSPs from different neurons, and responds by triggering or not triggering an action potential
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The addition and response to the net effect of postsynaptic potentials is called Spatial summation

Explanation:

Signal summation occurs when impulses received by a neuron are eummed together to reach the excitation threshold to fire a neuron. It occurs at the axon hillock of a neuron. Signal summation occurs since each neuron is connected to many other neurons, often receiving multiple impulses from them, both excitatory and inhibitory.

Signal summation can either be temporal or spatial.

Temporal summation, occurs when impulses received at the same place on the neuron in close temporal succession add up to initiate an action potential in the neuron.

Spatial summation occurs when impulses received simultaneously at different places on the neuron add up to initiate an action potential in the neuron.

Which of the following statements regarding human genetic disorders is accurate?
Anit [1.1K]
<span>Human genetic disorders can be caused largely by the change of the DNA sequence from its normal sequence. This can also be caused by a monogenic disorder, a mutation in a gene. So the best answer to this question would be letter B since nondisjunction causes chromosomal abnormalities.</span>

Select the correct statement about the three-chambered hearts of amphibians and nonbird reptiles. A scheme of blood circulation
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The three-chambered hearts of amphibians and nonbird reptiles are facultative, allowing variation in blood flow through the heart.

Explanation:

In Anatomy, cardiac cycle can be defined as a complete heartbeat of the human heart which comprises of sequential alternating contraction and relaxation of the atria and ventricles, therefore causing blood to flow unidirectionally (one direction) throughout the human body.

Generally, the cardiac cycle occurs in two (2) stages;

I. Diastole : in this stage, the ventricles is relaxed and would be filled with blood.

II. Systole: at this stage, the muscles contracts and thus, allow blood to be pushed through the atria.

All amphibians and reptiles except for crocodiles (having four-chambered heart) have three-chambered hearts, which typically comprises of a partially divided ventricle and two atria.

Hence, the correct statement about the three-chambered hearts of amphibians and nonbird reptiles is that, the three-chambered hearts of amphibians and nonbird reptiles are facultative, allowing variation in blood flow through the heart due to the partially divided ventricle.

The human genome comprises about 3 x 109 base pairs of DNA, and no two humans, other than identical twins, ever have been or wil
arsen [322]

Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Explanation:

The amount of genetic variation in two humans is 0.1 percent of their genome. Human genetic variation refers to the biological difference that exists in the human population.

The genetic variation in humans and apes genome is about 4 percent which is 35 million differences in a single nucleotide.

The genetic variation between apes and humans (Homo sapiens), according to scientists includes gene expression differences, variation in the transportable elements and type and number of repetitive genomic DNA transportable elements, the difference in the gene sequence, single nucleotide polymorphic, etc.

According to research, 97 percent of humans and orangutans genomes are identical. Based on evolution, among all apes, the orangutans are very special as it has been stable for the past 15 million years.

Therefore, is the genetic variation between humans and orangutans is the greatest.
