The correct answer is Galen.
Galen considered anatomy as the foundation of medical knowledge, and he recurrently dichotomized and tested on the lower animals like pigs, sheep, and goats. Galen's supported dissection as the method to better the skills of surgery and research works.
In his work, he illustrated seven pairs of cranial nerves, observed the structural distinctions between the veins and arteries, and illustrated the valves of the heart.
Answer:
Natural selection
Explanation:
Natural populations have variations. Organisms of a population have various genetic traits. Some of these genetic variations make the organisms better suited to the prevailing environmental conditions. These organisms are more likely to produce more progeny. Over generations, the frequency of the beneficial genetic traits increases in the population due to the higher reproductive success of the organisms with these genetic traits.
This process of differential fitness of organisms of a population where the organisms with adaptive genetic traits have survival and reproductive benefits is called natural selection.
Answer:
c) It introduces a premature stop codon into the mRNA
Explanation:
Nonsense mutation is a type of point mutation (single nucleotide base is changed) which leads to premature stop codon. Stop codons are also called nonsense codons and that is way this type of mutation is called nonsense mutation. As a consequence, synthesized protein is incomplete and shorter than it should be (truncated protein), usually nonfunctional.
Answer: 25 of the chicks will be black
Explanation: Since the chickens are intermediate in colour, that is they are not black, they are heterozygous. Let B represent the allele for black colour and B represent the allele for blue colour, therefore the genotype of a chicken with an intermediate colour is Bb. A cross between two Bb chicken will produce 1 BB, 2 Bb and 1 bb chicks. 1 BB will manifest outwardly as black, 2Bb will manifest outwardly as intermediate colored while 1 bb will manifest outwardly as blue colored chicks.
Since one out of four chicks are black colored, if the two chicken produced 100 chicks, the number of chicks that will be black is 1/4 x 100 = 25. Therefore, 25 chicks out of 100 will be black.
