Some psychologists suggest that sleep has evolved in order to allow humans to dream.

Biology
1 answer:
Kay [80]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Earlier it was believed by researchers that sleep is not a good thing as it does not allow an organism to stay alert all the time due to which there are high chances of such organism being consumed by other organism. However, with the discovery of theory of evolution, it is now believed that sleep has also evolved. Its evolution allows an organism to save energy and conserve it.  

Evolved sleep has helped decrease synaptic strength which allows a person to preserve memories and function well during the day time. REM sleep in the early morning makes brain metabolically active even while sleeping and hence, dream comes.

Suppose that allele D produces tiny ears and allele d produces normal ears. A heterozygous male with the Dd genotype mates with
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is 35 percent.

Explanation:

Allele D produced tiny ears, and allele d produces normal ones. If a heterozygous male with Dd mates with the homozygous female with dd, then generally, the expected offspring produced will be 50 percent with tiny ears, and 50 percent with normal ears.  

However, in the given case, the penetrance is 70 percent. Thus, the probability of the offspring with tiny ears will be:  

Penetrance = 70 %

Probability = 70 % of 50 % of 100

= 70/100 * 50/100 * 100

= 35 %

Hence, the probability of the offspring with tiny ears is 35%.

Can someone help me out with this? In pea plants, the allele for green seeds (G) is dominant over the allele for yellow seeds (g
anygoal [31]

Answer:

Parent 1: G gametes

Parent 2: g gametes

Explanation:

This question involves a single gene coding for seed color in pea plants. The allele for green seeds (G) is dominant over the allele for yellow seeds (g). This means that a plant that is heterozygous (Gg) will possess green seeds.

If two parents are about to cross in such a way that Parent 1 is homo-zygous for green seeds i.e. GG, while Parent 2 is homo-zygous for yellow seeds i.e. gg.

- Parent 1 (GG) will produce only "G" gametes

- Parent 2 (gg) will produce only "g" gametes

The divisions of the nervous system that have antagonistic actions, or opposing actions are A) motor and sensory. B) sympathetic
Effectus [21]

Answer:

B) sympathetic and parasympathetic

Explanation:

e autonomic nervous system also called the vegetative nervous system is part of the peripheral nervous system which inervates  smooth muscle and glands. Thus, it directly affects the function of internal organs and  regulates  functions such as the heart rate, digestion, respiratory rate,  urination etc. This nervous system control is  unconscious.

The autonomic nervous system is divided into: the sympathetic nervous system, the parasympathetic nervous system and the enteric nervous system.

Parasympathetic nervous system works when organism is at rest so it is known as system responsible for "rest and digest functions". On the other hand, sympathetic nervous system works at active and stressful situations and it is known as "fight and flight" system.
