Two brothers inherit different sets of alleles from their parents. what effect will they have?
lesya692 [45]
Depending on what trait the alleles carry, the brothers will have a different phenotype and a different genotype.
For example; Eye color. My sister is heterozygous, meaning she has brown eyes. I am homozygous recessive, meaning I have blue(green/hazel) eyes. We both have the same parents, I just happened to inherit both of the recessive eye color alleles from my parents whereas, my sister inherited both the dominant and recessive alleles. 

So, since the brothers inherited different sets of alleles, their genotype for a certain trait will be different.

What is well-tested explanation that brings together many observations in science would include such things as evolution, plate
lara31 [8.8K]

The correct answer is a theory.  

A theory is a rational and contemplative kind of generalizing or abstract thinking or the outcomes of such thinking. On the basis of the context, the outcomes might involve generalized illustrations of how nature functions.  

A theory can be a source of knowledge that may or may not is related to the specific explanatory models. To theorize is to create the body of knowledge.

On which part of the body does long-term use of stimulants (e.g., nicotine, cocaine, and methamphetamine) have the most signific
Y_Kistochka [10]
Stimulants are substances that all result in the increase of levels of dopamine in the brain, which is a neurotransmitter that affects attention and pleasure. What this means is that stimulants affect our brain and the way it works by changing the ways that nerve cells communicate.

Neurons (nerve cells) are the cells that have a role in transmitting messages from the brain to other parts of our body, and vice-versa, which is important for pain response, alertness, energy etc.

With long-term use, the use of stimulants would affect the central nervous system (speeding it up), the brain, and the functions necessary to live, like respiration, heart rate, blood pressure, body temperature. Levels of neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin, and GABA, which are responsible for the regulation of different processes,  are also impacted, which creates a chemical disbalance ultimately resulting in behavioral changes, mood swings, altered attention, movement and energy, stress etc.

So the part of the body that is affected the most with the long-term use of stimulants like cocaine, nicotine, methamphetamine is the brain of course, which is where these substances have the most impact, but the impact on the central nervous system, autonomous nervous system, and neurotransmitter levels is significant.
