2 answers:

The correct options are as follows:
1. Human skin color variation is primarily determined by the type and amount of melanin pigment in the skin.
2. Human skin color variation likely evolved in response to differences in the intensity of sunlight around the world.
3. Human skin color evolve recently in hominid evolution, once some population of human ancestor migrated out of Africa.
The color of human skin is primarily determine by melanin. The intensity of the sun in the climate where one is living also affect the type of skin color that will dominate in a geographical area.

The right answer is A, B, and D.

Over the millennia, the color of the skin of humans has adapted to the local sunshine.

A natural filter, melanin, has gradually developed under the influence of this selection pressure.

Melanin is a dark-colored pigment (from black to reddish brown) found in the skin, hair, hair and the membrane of the eye. The amount of melanin in an individual depends on several factors such as heredity, exposure of the skin to the sun (epigenetic factors) hormone levels or certain diseases.

The numbers listed represent the number of electrons in the first, second, and third energy levels, respectively. On this basis,

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is because one of its orbital shells is not filled – the one with 1 electron. This atom will, therefore, want to lose this electron – it takes less energy to do this than gain 7 electrons -- to achieve stable electron configuration. This makes this atom very reactive in a chemical reaction. Usually orbital shells of atoms begin with an S orbital shell that is filled with 2 electrons then P (x,y,z) orbital shells filled with 6 electrons total. There are also higher energy f and d orbitals that each take a maximum 10 and 14 electrons respectively. An atom is stable if its orbitals are fully filled.

What are the steps of DNA Replication in order?

slega [8]

Explanation:

1) The enzyme helicase catalyses the unwinding of the two DNA strands by disrupting the hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs.

2) Single-stranded binding proteins attach to the DNA strands to stabilise them and prevent them from joining back together.

3) The enzyme primase catalyses the addition of a short primer consisting of RNA nulceotides to the DNA strand. This serves as an 'anchor' DNA polymerase to initiate replication.

4) The enzyme DNA polymerase synthesizes a new DNA strand by incorporating DNA nucleotides complementary to the existing strand. DNA polymerase activity only occurs in the 5' ---> 3' direction.

5) The enzyme ligase catalyses the formation of hydrogen bonds between the two new pairs of DNA strands, and seals any breakages in the sugar-phosphate backbone.

Difference between endotoxins and exotoxins

erma4kov [3.2K]

There are two types of toxins; endotoxins and exotoxins. ... On the other hand, endotoxins are less lethal but can cause fever to the host. Exotoxins are secreted by bacteria and release outside the cell whereas endotoxins are bacterial toxins located within the cells.

For children with most physical disabilities and other health impairments, a common cause of academic difficulties is

Ber [7]

For children with most physical disabilities and other health impairments, a common cause of academic difficulties is erratic or irregular school attendance.

Class attendance or school attendance is very important for your academic carrier because if you are not able to attend the class, you did not learn anything, you did not finish your homework etc. and when the exams came you did nothing. So, the children with physical disabilities or other health issues mostly misses the class due to health issues, and this irregular attendance causes difficulties in academic carrier.
