Give one example of an extrinsic homeostatic mechanism overriding an intrinsic homeostatic process.
NeTakaya

Answer:

Extrinsic regulatory mechanisms are external and depend on the firing of some factor outside the population itself. Among them are interspecific competition, food and space restrictions, very strong climatic variations, weathering and inharmonious relationships with other populations (parasitism and predatism).

Good examples of interspecific competition appear when rabbits, caves, rats compete for the same plant, or different fish and birds, such as the heron, vie for the same species of smaller fish. This is because these different species keep their populations in the same ecological niche. Competition is often so strong that some species eventually, as one example of an extrinsic homeostatic mechanism overriding an intrinsic homeostatic process is their disappearance or migration to other regions.

In this competition, the presence of adaptations among individuals in the population that promote better food search, speed, vision, and others can make the difference between elimination and survival.

Explanation:

Two types of nucleic acids are DNA and RNA. The monomers of mucleic acid contains the pentose sugar, nitrogenous bases and the phosphate group attached with the bases.

Friedrich Miescher was the first scientists who discovered the nucleic acids. He identified the nucleic acids from the bandage that contains the nuclei of white blood cells. The new compounds discovered is known as nucleic acid. But the monomers of the nucleic acids was first explained by Phoebus Levene. Different forms of nucleic acid was also postulated by Phoebus Levene.

Thus, the answer is Phoebus Levene.

Answer;

-Forensic Index

Explanation;

-The Combined DNA Index System (CODIS) is an FBI-run database that blends forensic science and computer technology into a tool for solving violent crimes.

-CODIS enables Federal, State, and local crime labs to exchange and compare DNA profiles electronically, thereby linking crimes to each other and to convicted offenders.

-CODIS uses two indexes: the Convicted Offender Index, which contains profiles of convicted offenders, and the Forensic Index: which contains profiles from crime-scene evidence.

What are some proposed disadvantages to utilizing DNA technology?
vfiekz [6]
Most of the downsides of recombinant DNA technology are ethical in nature. Some people feel that recombinant DNA technology goes against the laws of nature, or against their religious beliefs, due to how much control this technology gives humans over the most basic buildings blocks of life.

Other ethical concerns also exist. Some people worry that if companies can pay scientists to patent, buy and sell genetic material, then genetic material could become an expensive commodity. Such a system might lead to people having their genetic information stolen and used without permission. It may sound odd, but such cases have already happened. In 1951, a scientist used unique cells stolen from a woman named Henrietta Lacks to create an important cell line (the HeLa cell line) which is still used in medical research today. Her family did not know about her involuntary donation until after her death, and never received compensation, but others have profited from the use of HeLa cells.

Many people worry about the safety of modifying food and medicines using recombinant DNA technology. Although genetically modified foods seem safe in multiple studies, it is easy to see why such fears exist.
Hope this helps
