It is true that human has 23 chromosomes, in contrast to chimps who have 24 chromosomes,and lack any pair resembling the long human chromosome 2 pair and instead chimps have two pairs of medium sized chromosome, This would be explained by the fact that the common ancestor of both humans and chimpanzees had 24 chromosomes, however at some point in the human lineage, two chromosomes fused end to end, providing some selective advantage and thus humans ended up having 23 chromosomes instead of 23.
Answer:
Mesozoic Era
Explanation:
The "Mesozoic Era" is divided into three periods: <em>Triassic, Jurassic and Cretaceous.</em> During the last period (Cretaceous), which was considered the longest, the extinction of reptiles occurred and the new mammals appeared. This event was also known as the "Cretaceous-Paleogene Extinction Event." Around <em>3/4 of plants and animals died</em>. Such event became significant boundary that laid between the Cenozoic Era and the Mesozoic Era. This made it significant in geologic history.
It is crucial that we protect, conserve, and support the global population of producers. This claim is supported by the evidence that was discovered in the experiment of the water tank. As seen in the experiment, when the fish were increase, the levels of oxygen were decreased. Then, as soon as more plants (producers) were added to the tank, the oxygen levels increased once again. Theses evidences can be applied on a larger scale of the earth. An analogy could be made between the fish and plants in the tank to the animals, humans, and plants all over the world. As the population of animals and humans continue to grow around the world, more and more trees and plants get cut down. As this continues the oxygen levels will decrease, which can be supported by the evidence in the lab.
Answer:
The correct answer is -
a. has a grossly enlarged face and hands compared to torso and limbs
c. is distorted because of the disproportionate representation of certain body parts relative to others in the somatosensory cortex
Explanation:
" Homunculus" is a graphical representation of a small but fully grown man which the foetus is believed to develop whereas somatosensory homunculus is a neurological representation of the brain of humans that shows the motor and sensory functions of the body.
It has a large number of sensory nerves from the hand that take a large part of the brain. The face also has many nerve endings and are represented by large areas of the homunculus. A distorted look comes from this uneven representation of different body parts in the homunculus.
