The correct answer is Metal.
Sound waves are vibrations which need medium to propagate. Higher the density of medium, the sound travels fastest. Sound travels fastest in solid than liquid and gas. Therefore, in this question sound will travel faster in metal because metal has higher density than air and water and it will not travel in vacuum as sound needs medium to travel.
I am pretty sure its called the "Biological Soup theory"... I hope I helped!
Answer:
Modified apocrine sweat glands
Explanation:
The ceruminous glands are similar to sebaceous glands, belonging to the group of sweat glands. These glands secrete a sticky material, the ear wax, that protects the thin skin lining the ear canal.
As soon as a dust, dirt or an insect enters the ear canal at the beginning of the ear wax, the wax retains, wraps and pushes it outside the ear canal.
This secretion is lubricating as well as acidic, which helps to kill potentially harmful bacteria and fungi in the ears.
Answer: Missense mutation
Explanation:
Missense mutation is a type of point mutation where a single nucleotide is changed to cause substitution of a different amino acid. This in turns render the resulting protein non-functional.
In the case of sickle-cell disease, the sixth amino acid in the gene sequence, glutamate (GAG) is substituted with valine (GUA), due to Adenine nucleotide changed to Uracil nucleotide. Thus, missense mutation has occurred
