Answer:

It is correct, the choice that you place in here.

According to the data I found on research, on this type of mosquito, the Culex, or Culicine, females do present a blunt abdomen tip, which is different from the Aedes and other types of mosquito, palpi that are much shorter, and less bushy than in males either of their own type, or another type, and antennae with shorter, fewer hairs in them. The antennae and palps are shorter than the proboscis, as well. Knowing these factors help scientists to recognize the female mosquitoes of the Culex subfamily, from other females and from males of the same family, as well.

So the answer choice A: Blunt abdomen tip; antennae and palps shorter than proboscis, is correct.

Answer:

Scientists usually use the potassium-argon method to date rocks that are older than about 1 million years. Uranium-238 is also used for radiometric dating. It has a half-life of 4.5 billion years. It decays to produce lead-206.

Answer: Sickle cell anemia is a molecular and genetic disease.

Sickle cell anemia is not infectious

Diseases caused by microorganisms are infectious.

Explanation: Sickle cell disease is a molecular disease,it involves molecular change in the structure of the molecular base present in the molecule DNA which caused the amino acids and the beta side of the hemoglobin to change accordingly.

It is genetic as it can be transferred from one generation to the next, children can inherit it from their parents.

A person can not be infected with Sickle cell anemia,it is not infectious unlike diseases caused by microorganisms that can infect others who come in contact with the disease either through blood or other routes.

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

A general decrease in transcriptional activation

Explanation:

When acetyl groups are added to histone proteins by acetyltransferase enzymes, the 30-nm chromatin fiber will not be formed because the proteins are prevented from doing so. This further destabilizes the chromatin structure and allows the occurrence of transcription. However, raising the cells to  40°C does not allow the acetyltransferase enzyme to function and hence the acetyl group will be hindered from being added to the histone protein which is the main target of the enzymes. Thus, transcription activation will be blocked because the chromatin and nucleosomes would remain stabilized.
