<span>The correct answer for the question is Non-disjunction. Non-disjunction occurs in cell division when chromosomes do not divide properly. It can occur during mitosis, meiosis I and meiosis II. In mitosis it occurs when sister chromatids fails to separate in Anaphase. The result is that one cell receives both chromatids, while the other receives neither. Each daughter cell then has an abnormal number of chromosomes when mitosis is complete; one cell has an extra chromosome, while the other is missing one. In anaphase of meiosis I, it happens when a pair of homologous chromosomes does not separate. In meiosis II, it happens when a pair of sister chromatids fails to separate properly during anaphase of meiosis II, one daughter cell will have an extra chromosome and one daughter cell will be missing a chromosome.</span>
The correct answer to this question is letter A. Speciation. <span>The Galapagos finch species are an excellent example of speciation. It was Charles Darwin himself who is responsible and made the start of the study in Genetics through his natural selection and survival of the fittest. Hope this helps answer your question.</span>
Answer:
Elevated uric acid levels lead to a condition known as "Hyperuricemia."
Explanation:
This condition occurs when there is an excessive presence of uric acid in the blood. It can be divided into:
- Primary hyperuricemia
- Secondary hyperuricemia
Primary hyperuricemia occurs when the kidneys are not able to eliminate uric acid in an efficient/proper way. This can be due to the consumption of foos that are very high in purines. For example, liver, gravy, alcoholic beverages, and some vegetables such as spinach and asparagus.
Secondary hyperuricemia may occur to several possible reasons. For instance, kidney disease, in which the kidney is not able to eliminate uric acid; chemotherapy, which may lead to the accumulation of uric acids; or medications that increase the level of uric acid in the blood.
Symptoms include:
- Fever.
- Extreme and abnormal fatigue.
- Joint inflammation.
- Urination problems.
- Kidney stones.
To prevent this disease and as part of a treatment (along with medications prescribed by a doctor), a patient should opt to consume foods that are low in purine, such as lettuce, tomatoes, cereals, fruits, milk, eggs, amongst others.
Answer:
I conclude that the answer is B
Surface area is an important factor in limiting cell growth because
a. the cell can burst if the membrane becomes too large.
b. materials cannot enter the cell if the surface is too large.
c. the cell may become too large to take in enough food and to remove enough wastes.
d. waste products cannot leave the cell if the cell is too small.
Answer:
c. the cell may become too large to take in enough food and to remove enough wastes.
Explanation:
The exchange of substances with surroundings is done by cells by the process of diffusion. The rate of diffusion of substances requires the presence of a higher surface area than volume. As the cells become larger, their surface area is reduced with respect to the volume. Therefore, larger cells can not support the diffusion of substances in and out as required for its proper functioning. If cells are allowed to grow continuously, they will not be able to intake the requires materials such as food and to release the waste outside.
