Bee sting in a child is really a concern than with the adult because this would cause anaphylaxis, which is a fatal reaction of severe allergy. The effects are swelling, sweating, and pain, difficulty in breathing, dizziness and shock. In this life-threatening scenario, infant really needs immediate care for their immune system and other body organs are not yet fully develop to fight for the allergic reaction.

What is meant by the statement "Evolution may proceed along 'genetic lines of least resistance'"?
Ivan

Answer:

C. Characters with little genetic variation will constrain the rate of natural selection

Explanation:

Natural selection can have an effect only as long as there are variations on characters on which it can select upon. Genetic variation is independent of the environment or the needs that a species may have to become better adapted to its changing environment. In other words, genetic mutations are the raw material on which natural selection can work. If there is a low rate for mutations to occur, then natural selection will proceed at a slow pace. The opposite is also true. Since mutation rate may be more frequent at some locations in a gene than at others, it can be predicted that the characters coded in that gene location will be more likely to be affected by natural selection and therefore what phenotype may be molded by natural selection.

Word bank: (Thermosphere) (Aurora boreal is) ( Large-scale air turbulence and mixing at this layer) ( Stratosphere) (The coldest
Lyrx [107]
  • Thermosphere - Fourth layer of Earth's atmosphere.
  • Aurora Borealis - Ionosphere layer of thermosphere.
  • Large-scale air turbulence and mixing at this layer - Troposphere
  • Stratosphere - Second lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere. No Air turbulence so airplanes fly in this layer.
  • The coldest temperatures in the atmosphere occur at the junction- of Stratosphere and mesosphere
  • Maximum ozone - Ozone layer in Stratosphere

Explanation:

Atmosphere is formed by mixing of gases. The layers of atmosphere is given below.

1. Troposphere -

  • The first layer of the atmosphere.
  • Weather occurs in this layer.

2.Stratosphere -

  • The second layer of Earth's atmosphere.
  • Contains Ozone layer.

3. Mesosphere -

  • The third layer above the stratosphere.
  • Coldest layer.

4. Thermosphere -

  • The fourth layer of the atmosphere.
  • Warmest layer.
  • Ionosphere - lowest level of thermosphere above mesosphere.
  • Aurora Borealis, Northern and Southern lights are seen in this layer.
  • Exosphere - outermost layer of thermosphere.
  • Satellites are in this layer.
  • Outer space with no gravity.

Define photosynthesis and provide examples of photosynthetic organisms
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

Photosynthesis is a process by which phototrophs convert light energy into chemical energy, which is later used to fuel cellular activities. The chemical energy is stored in the form of sugars, which are created from water and carbon dioxide.

Plants, algae, and a group of bacteria called cyanobacteria are the only organisms capable of performing photosynthesis

The death of the corpus luteum results in the formation of __________.
HACTEHA [7]

Answer: The correct answer would be corpus albicans.

Explanation:

After ovulation, the ovarian follicle converts into corpus hemorrhagicum. After some time, it converts into a temporary endocrine structure termed as corpus luteum. It maintains high levels of progesterone which is necessary for maintenance of uterus lining.

However, in absence of pregnancy or fertilisation, the corpus luteum starts degrading and convert into the structure termed as corpus albicans.
