Answer:

<em>The correct option is A) Autosomal dominant</em>

Explanation:

To interpret the inheritance, let us look at the pattern shown in the pedigree. The normal allele is recessive whereas the abnormal allele is dominant. This type of pedigree can be analyzed affected fathers and mothers transmit the phenotype to both sons and daughters. Hungtinton's diseases is an example of autosomal dominant disorder.

Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption is the extra amount of oxygen consumed after the completion of exercise and before respi
Scilla [17]

The extra oxygen is used to restore muscle fibers to their pre-exercise state by doing all of the following except facilitating calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum in the muscle fiber. Thus, the correct option is B.

<h3>What is Respiration?</h3>

Respiration may be defined as the process of acquiring oxygen from outside the body and utilizing it in the process of breakdown of food sources for cellular needs.

The extra oxygen works in the muscle fiber by replenishing the ATP, restocking the myoglobin, and supplying the ATP used to replenish glycogen stores in the muscle fiber.

Therefore, the correct option for this question is B.

Which of the following is NOT part of the peripheral nervous system?
Ksju [112]

The correct answer is: B. spinal cord  

The nervous system can be divided into two subdivisions: the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The spinal cord and the brain are part of the CNS, whereas the PNS consists of the nerves that radiate from the CNS to all parts of the body. The PNS includes all neurons that sense and transmit information to the CNS.

The CNS controls thinking processes, movements, and registers the sensations throughout our body. Moreover, the PNS acts to transmit information from the CNS to all parts of the body.

The PNS is in turn divided into two main parts:

1-The Autonomic nervous system (ANS), which regulates involuntary functions and glands. The parasympathetic nervous system is one division of the ANS that controls visceral organs such as glands.

2- Somatic nervous system (SNS), which regulates voluntary muscle movement and transmits information from eyes, ears, and skin to the CNS.

What contributed to the specification in Darwin's Finch theory
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

On his visit to the Galapagos Islands, Charles Darwin discovered several species of finches that varied from island to island, which helped him to develop his theory of natural selection.

Darwin's finches are a classical example of an adaptive radiation. Their common ancestor arrived on the Galapagos about two million years ago. During the time that has passed the Darwin's finches have evolved into 15 recognized species differing in body size, beak shape, song and feeding behaviour.

Which of the following results when a person’s hand is near an open flame?
Ede4ka [16]

Given what we know, we can confirm that when a person's hand is near an open flame, the brain is required to integrate incoming and outgoing information. Option C is correct.

<h3>What happens when a person's hand is near a flame?</h3>

We can say that the information from the heat being generated by the flame is received by sensory neurons in the person's hand. This information generates a pain response which is integrated as incoming information in the brain, which then produces a motor response to move the hand away from the flame, as an outgoing signal.

Therefore, we can confirm that when a person's hand is near an open flame, the brain is required to integrate incoming and outgoing information. Option C is correct.
