Dolphins are able to sleep without drowning because they have gills, like fish do. have a special opening that allows air in but

not water. sleep on just one side of their brain at a time. inflate their bodies before sleep, which maintains them floating upright so they can breathe without taking in any water.

Answer: sleep on just one side of their brain at a time

Explanation: While sleeping, the dolphin shuts down only half of its brain together with the opposite eye while the other half of the brain stays awake at a minimum level of alertness. It uses its attentive side to watch for predators or obstacles. The dolphin also reverses this process to rest the active side of the brain and awake the rested half.

Answer:

They sleep on just one side of their brain at a time

Explanation:

Dolphins are different from fishes that can breathe underwater.

It is necessary for them to get to the surface of the water at intervals to breathe air.

While sleeping, dolphins allows one hemisphere of their brains fall asleep while the other half is fully conscious. This means that If the left brain is sleeping, the right eye stays open and if the right brain is sleeping, the left eye stays open.

This happens so they always know when it's time to surface and breathe and when to escape when there is trouble.

The scientists mapping the SNPs in the human genome noticed that groups of SNPs tended to be inherited together, in blocks known
Over [174]

Answer:

SNPs have shown that only 0.1 % of DNA sequences are different in the human genome between different individuals, thereby all the inherited phenotypic variation observed in our species is associated with only 0.1 % of differences at the genome level  

Explanation:

Haplotypes are block-like sequences of DNA that are inherited together due to low recombination rates. Moreover, single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) mapping is a very useful methodology used to map the site of SNP mutations (i.e., SNP variants). In this regard, it has been observed that there are approximately 10 million common SNPs in the human genome. These SNPs contribute to the wide range of phenotypic variation observed in human populations for different traits (e.g., eye color, hair, weight, height, etc). Moreover, researchers have determined that SNPs can be clustered into haplotypes, thereby haplotypes can be accurately sampled by as few as approx. 300,000 selected SNPs, which are sufficient to represent all of the genetic variation across different human genomes.

Viktor [21]

Answer:

cAMP dependent pathway is important for processing of life.

Explanation:

cAMP pathway is also called as adenynyl cyclase pathway.

This mechanism requires different steps like-

  1. G protein coupled receptor is a integral protein that is activated by different external stimuli which binds with the specific ligand.
  2. Extracellular ligand causes activation of GPCR which in turn is responsible for conformational change  in the receptor and allows it to bind with the intracellular heterotrimeric G protein complex.
  3. The Gα  stimulate G protein complex to exchange GDP for GTP and then the complex is released.
  4. Activated Gα binds with adenylate cyclase and catalyzes ATP to form cyclic AMP.
  5. Activation of cAMP leads to the activation of nucleotide gated ion channel, and PKa(Protein kinase A) which is also called as cAMP dependent enzyme.
  6. Once, PKA is activated,it causes phospholylation of other proteins like AMPA receptor,transcription factors which regulate gene expression, and convert glycogen into glucose.
