Correct answer:
"All of these are equally affected."

When in Alzheimer's disease, all of the working memory is in peril. In early stages of Alzheimer's disease, all of these functions start to have problems. Phonological loop is basically the capacity to memorise speech or information in it. Central executive is the ability to switch attention from one activity to another that is needing more attention. The visuospatial sketch pad is the ability to handle visual and spatial information being able to judge distances for example. All of these are part o the working memory and are affected from the early stages of Alzheimer's disease.

What use do u think extracting DNA might have today
Ket [755]
  <span>Extraction of DNA is important because of many reasons. With the ability to remove DNA from an organism, scientists can observe, manipulate, and classify the DNA. 

Scientists can identify genetic disorders or diseases from studying DNA. 

Scientists can possibly find cures for these causes by manipulating or experimenting with this DNA. 

Scientists can accurately sort organisms into classes because of DNA uniqueness. If we didn't have DNA extraction, it would be a lot harder to decide which organisms are different from each other. 

Scientists can genetically engineer some organisms to produce beneficial things. A common example is that of insulin. Scientists can genetically engineer insulin production so that people with diabetes can live longer.</span>

. If a substance changes form one phase to another, is it still the same substance?
gladu [14]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

A phase change does not change the chemical make-up of a substance.  Phase changes are typically temperature dependent, and change only the movement and physical arrangement of the atoms and molecules in the substance.  Water, for example, is composed of two hydrogen atoms attached to an oxygen atom by covalent bonds.  That stays the same whether the water is solid (ice), liquid (water), or gas (steam).  The chemical structure of water does not change as it goes through the different faces.  It's still water.  What does change is the speed at which the molecules move and how far apart they are as a result.  Water vapor consists of molecules moving quickly and at random.  As temperature drops, water molecules slow down.  Since water is slightly polar, hydrogen bonds form between the molecules bringing them closer together.
