Answer:

D. Aneuploidy

Explanation:

Aneuploidy refers to the presence of extra or missing copies of specific chromosomes. The presence of one extra copy of a chromosome is referred to as trisomy. The absence of one copy of a chromosome is called monosomy. According to the given information, the fetus has 45 chromosomes while the humans have a total of 46 chromosomes. This means that the fetus was monosomic (aneuploid) for a chromosome.

Describe ways that a human society's culture, agricultural practices, and health practices would be shaped by living in an area
Pachacha [2.7K]

Active volcanoes can affect the properties of the soil (e.g., pH) and therefore may alter agriculture and health.

<h3>What are active volcanoes?</h3>

Active volcanoes are geological formations that have regular cycles of eruptions, releasing liquid magma to the Earth's surface.

These eruptions are composed of rocks (or ash weathers) that generate fertile soils, but also may affect the respiratory airways.

Volcanic eruptions have devastating consequences for human populations and lead to destruction as well as societal collapse.

In conclusion, active volcanoes can affect the properties of the soil (e.g., pH) and therefore may alter agriculture and health.
