Katie has a rare neurological disease in which her neurons can receive new information and process it, but some of them just cannot pass the information along. This disease most likely affects the axon of the neurons. Since axon is the signal transmitting end of the neuron, if the fusion of the vesicles containing the neurotransmitters with the cell membrane around the synaptic cleft is hampered, then the signal transmission gets disrupted.
An extinction event is a well-known
and quick decrease in the biodiversity on Earth. Such an occurrence
is recognized by a sharp change in the diversity and abundance of multicellular organisms. It happens when the
rate of extinction surges with respect to the rate of speciation.
In other words, this happens when species cannot adapt generally to the change
in the environment. So the correct answer would be letter a.
Fact, BRCA genes help with cell division in the breast and prostate regions. Therefore, if they are mutated, the cell division process wouldn't function normally and possibly end up in cancer since the BRCA genes tend to be tumor suppressors (cancer is a malignant tumor).
Answer:
mutagens in the environment, such as tobacco smoke and certain pesticides
Good luck!!!!
<span>I think you're looking for August Weismann who disproved the idea of inheritance of acquired traits from somatic cells (body cells). By doing so, he proved that inheritance only takes place by germ cells (gametes). </span>
