Answer:
The Alvarez hypothesis posits that the mass extinction of the dinosaurs and many other living things during the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event was caused by the impact of a large asteroid on the Earth. Prior to 2013, it was commonly cited as having happened about 65 million years ago, but Renne and colleagues (2013) gave an updated value of 66 million years.[1] Evidence indicates that the asteroid fell in the Yucatán Peninsula, at Chicxulub, Mexico. The hypothesis is named after the father-and-son team of scientists Luis and Walter Alvarez, who first suggested it in 1980. Shortly afterwards, and independently, the same was suggested by Dutch paleontologist Jan Smit

Answer:
1. The presynaptic neuron reaches the synaptic knob and the terminal is depolarized.
2. The electrical voltage gated calcium channels in the presynaptic knob opens.
3. The calcium ions enters through the calcium channel, this calcium ions cause the fusion of the synaptic vesicles to the presynaptic membrane, the cell membrane of an axon terminal that faces the receiving cell.
4. There is neurotransmitter release by the axon terminal of a neuron and bind to and react with the receptors on the dendrites of another neuron e.g. acetylcholine by exocytosis.
5. Acetylcholine diffuses across the synaptic cleft and bind to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron, that is a neuron to the cell body or dendrite of which an electrical impulse is transmitted across a synaptic cleft by the release of a chemical neurotransmitter from the axon terminal of a presynaptic neuron.
6. This causes sodium ion channels in the postsynaptic neuron to open, and sodium ions diffuse in.
7. Excitatory (excited neurons) postsynaptic potentials are created, and if these generator potentials are sufficient then the postsynaptic terminal reaches threshold potential and there is propagation.
Explanation: The nervous system is made up of billions of specialized cells called neurons, it is crucial to have an efficient communication between neurons for normal functioning of the central and peripheral nervous systems. The presynaptic action potential refers to an action potential of neuron before synapse. The above is the sequence of event during the transmission of information across the synaptic cleft
Answer:
a. Ed/eD
b. RF=0.12
Explanation:
The alleles for genes D/d and E/e are:
- D_: only on neck spikes
- dd: along back spikes
- E_: long spikes
- ee: short spikes
After testcrossing a double heterozygote (DdEe x ddee) there are 4 types of offspring, two of them much more abundant than the other two. The homozygous recessive parent can only produce <em>ed</em> gametes, so the phenotypes of the offspring depend on the gametes that the double heterozygous parent produced.
The offspring was:
- Ed/ed 79
- ed/ed 12
- ED/ed 10
- eD/ed 76
Total: 177
a) This result suggests that the genes are linked. Since recombination is a rare event, the most abundant phenotypes always come from the parental gametes, and the least abundant come from the recombinant gametes.
<u>Therefore, the genotype of the doube heterozygote parent was </u><u><em>Ed/eD</em></u><u>.</u>
b) Recombination frequency (RF) = Recombinants / Total
RF = (12+10)/177
<u>RF = 0.12</u>
