I believe it is the Hypothalamus. It activates the sympathetic nervous system and the adrenal-cortical systems. Fight or flight response is a specific biochemical reaction that both humans and animals experience during intense stress or fear. It is the body's response towards perceived threat or danger. During the reaction, certain hormones such as adrenaline and cortisol are released, thus speeding the heart rate, slowing digestion, and changing various other autonomic nervous functions, and therefore giving the body a burst of energy and strength.

Which of the following is a way that new DNA can be introduced to bacteria?
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

<em>The correct answer here would be that </em><em>it can be injected by a virus.</em>

Since a virus operates by taking over the genetic system of the host and uses its replication, transcription, and translation to make virions or viral particles through the lytic or lysogenic life cycle. In the process, if the virus is utilized as a vector to carry a foreign DNA, the DNA is introduced into the genome of the bacteria. This is exactly what happens during the process known as transduction.

<em>The correct option is, therefore, </em><em>B.</em>

Natural selection may be through (1) differential reproduction, that is, not all organisms are able to reproduce to their fullest capacity because nature cannot simply sustain it and (2) acquire genes, that is heredity.</span>

How does a new hypothesis replace an older explanation of something in the natural world
Flura [38]

How does a new hypothesis replace an older explanation of something in the natural world? To understand this let us look at one of the classical example of geocentric theory and heliocentric theory. The geocentric theory states the Earth is at the centre of the solar system and the Sun, Moon, and all the other planets revolve around it. This ancient theory failed to explain the phenomenon like the phases of Moon, solar eclipse and lunar eclipse. The modern heliocentric theory which states that the Sun is at the centre of solar system, and all the planets including the Earth revolve around it. This theory was able to explain all the phenomenons unlike the geocentric theory. Hence the heliocentric theory replaced the geocentric theory.
