Biological anthropologists have observed several capuchin monkeys in Costa Rica rub themselves with the leaves of the Piper plan

t. The monkeys often chew the leaves slightly before wadding them up and rubbing them all over their fur. This same plant is used medicinally by people for many purposes including as an insect repellent. Although it remains unclear why the monkeys engage in this leaf-rubbing behavior, researchers have noted that the behavior is more common in times of year when insect activity is higher. What is the primary type of biological anthropology addressed in this research?

Answer:

Primatology

Explanation:

Primatology is the study of primates' behavior. This is an important science for evolution and human behavioral genesis comprehension. It is also very important to keep these species in freedom and take good care of those animals that are in captivity by keeping in optimum conditions their environment.  

Primatology approximation seems to be each time more interdisciplinary, abording it from both the Biological Sciences and the Social and Human Sciences. Different social areas are involved, such as philosophy, anthropology, psychology, among others.

Primatology extends from the anatomy of the primates ancestors to field studies about behavior and the ecology of the current species. It studies the philosophy of primates and their language. Primate language drives to the knowledge about humanity ancestors.

Viruses can only replicate with in a cell or living tissue applies to a viral infection.

Viral infections are infections that are caused by viruses. Viruses are microscopic organisms that contains a core of genetic material (DNA or RNA) enclosed by a protein coat. Viruses are not made of cells and they are very tiny and smaller than bacteria. Viruses require a living cell (host organism) to replicate and produce other viruses similar to them. Viral infections cannot be treated with antibiotics, antiviral medicines are used instead. Examples of viral infections include; common cold, flu, smallpox, HIV/AIDS and Ebola.

Paha777 [63]

Buyer's remorse, a mild form of <u>cognitive dissonance</u>, is the internal conflict that arises from an inconsistency (disharmony) between competing beliefs, or between beliefs and behavior.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the psychology field, the occurrence when a person retains two or more contradictory views, ideas, or values, or takes part in a behavior that runs counter to one of these three, and thereby encounters psychological stress is understood as "cognitive dissonance".

For instance, when humans smoke (behavior) and realize that smoking causes cancer (cognition), thus they are considered in a cognitive dissonance situation. It is used as a concentration on more positive beliefs which outweigh dissonant ideology or behaviour.

Suppose the inputs and outputs to the atmospheric carbon reservoir each year were as shown below. How much carbon would the atmo
defon

The correct answer is - A. 780 GtC.

If the inputs and outputs of carbon are as shown on the image, than the carbon levels in the atmosphere will reduce by 20 GtC in a ten year time, thus making the atmosphere have 780 GtC instead of the initial 800 GtC.

On the image we can see that the carbon that gets up into the atmosphere is 69 GtC annually, while the carbon that returns on the Earth is 71 GtC annually. That means a drop of 2 GtC annually in the carbon levels in the atmosphere.

Such a process will reduce the Greenhouse effect, and eventually it will lead to an ice age because the atmosphere will not be able to retain as much heat as previously, thus the Earth will cool off.

olga_2 [115]
What happens on Jane's elbow?
when a skin is scratched, the internal medium of the body enter directly in contact with the external environment, this could lead bacteria (saprophytic bacteria which lives on the skin, or bacteria from another source) it will provoke an inflammatory reaction to these pathogens and so, a pus will be formed (generally composed by dead neutrophils and purulent bacteria).

What happened on Sarah's knee?
The knee was just bruised, there's not skin scratching, it is still intact, so bacteria cannot go into the body through this injury. It just takes colors (red, blue, then yellow due to the rupture of capillaries which release blood, then will be degraded in bilirubin)
