Knowing what we know about the link between genetics, environment and intelligence, what would be your expectations if you were

a teacher and you had a pair of monozygotic twins in your classroom
Biology

Vesnalui [34]3 years ago

Answer:

I would expect them to perform similar.

Explanation:

Studies suggest that intelligence has a genetic component and can, in part, be passed from parent to child - but not only that. There are outer components that contribute to the formation of intelligent individuals. Better nutrition and more access to education would be possible explanations for the progressive increase in intelligence test scores over time.

Homozygous twins are those that are mainly characterized by similarity between individuals. These twins are formed from the same zygote, ie after the fertilization process. Because of this characteristic, they have the same genetic heritage and are therefore considered identical.

As the homozygous twins in their classroom have the same genetic heritage and attend the same environment, we can conclude that their intelligence is influenced by the same factors. For this reason, a teacher who taught these two brothers might have expectations that they would perform similarly in the classroom.

PART 1


1. The answer is low frequency electromagnetic waves are able to go around obstacles due to their larger wavelengths. This characteristic of lower frequency waves is due to their ability to diffract around obstacles such as buildings and hills. Therefore, they transmit over long distances unlike high frequency electromagnetic waves.

2. One disadvantage is interference. Electromagnetic waves of the same frequency transmitted at the same time will interfere with one other and therefore the signal will be lost or scrambled. Other electromagnetic waves such as microwaves are affected (interfered with) by weather elements.

3. Analogue signals are continuous signals with wave-like properties while digital signals are discrete signals or pulse (ons (1s) and offs (0s) that represent bits). Analogue signal is represented by a sine-wave while digital signal is represented by discrete squares waves.

4. Digital signals are less immune to eavesdropping unlike analogue signals. Analogue signal is also more prone to distortion unlike digital signal. Digital signals transmit more data than analogue signals. Digital signal draw less energy to transmit compared to analogue signal.

5. Broadcasting of TV is nowadays using digital signals due to the high number of available channels. Computers and the interne utilize digital signaling to transmit data. Controls systems such as radar system also use aspects of analogue waves. Sensors also utilize analogue waves especially transducers such as seismology equipment.


PART 2


1. One way is by sending radio waves to probes sent out in space to give them commands during exploration. Radio telescopes also pick up naturally-occurring radio waves from space and analyze the data to make conclusions about space and the astronomical objects.

2. Radio waves are used in communication by transmitting data over long distances. One example is its use TV transmission. Another is through military defense of airspace. The radio waves are used to detect enemy intrusion into restricted airspaces using radar.

3. It is common that signal from the environment will be in analogue signal format. The conversion to digital signals allows for the digital equipment in the telescope to interpret and analyze the data. Telescopes prefer digital equipment because they consume less power, handle more data, and are less prone to intrusion, and distortion, hence more secure to analogue equipment.
