Kay [80]

Answer:

genomic imprinting

Explanation:

Genomic imprinting is a mechanism for regulating gene expression that allows expression of only one of the parental alleles, although both alleles are functional. Unlike most genes in which expression is biallelic, genes that are subjected to this mechanism (imprinted genes) have monoalelic expression; By definition, in an imprinted loci, only one allele is active (maternal or paternal), and the inactive is epigenetically marked by histonic modification and / or methylation of cytosines.

Genomic imprinting can cause some disturbances, among them Prader-Willi syndrome, which is a genetic disorder that involves a partial deletion of chromosome 15q on the paternal chromosome.

Which of the following statements is FALSE regarding water intake and output by the body?
REY [17]

Answer:

The correct option is this: AN INCREASE IN FLUID TAKEN BY MOUTH WOULD REDUCE THE AMOUNT PRODUCED BY METABOLISM.

Explanation:

Generally, the amount of water consumed by a person normally leads to increase in the amount of urine that the person will excrete, that is, the higher the quantity of water consumed, the higher the quantity of the urine that will be excreted under normal circumstances. Thus, the statement given in option B is false. The statements given in Option C and D are right; during exercise the quantity of sweat produce and lost by the body is higher than the one that is produced when one is not exercising. Also, diarrhea usually lead to loss of water from the body.

Why does water form large round drops as it falls from a faucet with a slow leak
jarptica [38.1K]
Water molecules are polar. This means that one end of the molecule is positively charged, while the other is negatively charged. Opposite charges attract. Water molecules on the faucet that are eventually pulled away from the others by gravity will themselves pull together and form round drops because the charged portions of molecule attract the oppositely charged portions of another.
