Answer:

d. More than 95% of our DNA is non-coding DNA

Explanation:

In humans only about 1% of DNA is coding, that is, only 1% of our genome is composed of exonic regions capable of synthesizing proteins. Teherefore, the other 99 percent is noncoding. When this was discovered the scientists thought that 99% of non-coding DNA was "junk" , however,  now we know that some of the non-coding DNA is important to regualte  gene expression.

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Type I curve

Explanation:

The K-strategist are species characterized by relatively stable populations that fluctuate at the carrying capacity of the habitat or niche in which organisms reside. Elephants are considered as K-strategists because they have a low population growth rate and relatively stable populations. There are three different types of survivorship curves. The Type I curve (also referred to as A curve) is characteristic of k-strategist organisms. Humans and elephants exhibit a Type I survivorship curve in which organisms tend to die when they become elderly. These species have a small number of offspring and provide parental care to ensure their survival. In a Type II survivorship curve, species produce many offspring and only some offspring survive (e.g., birds), while in Type III survivorship curve organisms produce many more offspring and most do not survive (i.e., r-strategists such as frogs or insects).

docker41 [41]
Medical terminology is to create a standardised language for medical professionals. This language helps medical staff communicate more efficiently and makes documentation easier. This enables staff to save time by ensuring they don’t have to explain complex medical condition in plain English and can focus on the treatment of patients. Medical terminology can look and sound complex, but it's important to be able to break words down and understand their roots, prefixes and suffixes to prevent any misunderstandings or errors.
