Explanation:
Infectious are more easily spread nowadays becuse of an increased population. The more the population increases, the bigger the advantage an infectious disease has. As of right now, because everyone is wearing masks, their immune systems are being weakened. Another reason for this is because of the increase in chemicals in our foods, which are now being transferred to our bodies. All of the medications people are taking also have an affect on the spread of disease; it gives diseases a chance to mutate.
Answer:
Explanation:
If we break down the word autotroph, auto means “self” and troph means "feeding" or nourishment. However, when we break the word heterotroph, we get hetero- meaning other, and troph meaning feeders.
This is the critical difference between these two groups. Autotrophs synthesize or make their own food whereas, heterotrophs cannot make their own food thus have to rely on others by eating or absorbing others. For example, plants are autotrophs because they can make their own food using photosynthesis, whereas, humans are heterotrophs because we have to eat others to survive.
Answer:
Homologous structures have the same ancestry, but may no longer serve the same function. For example, the bones that make up human fingers were inherited from an ancestor that's shared by all mammals.
Answer:
environment controlling gene expression
Explanation:
Gestational diabetes generally occurs in pregnant women. The sugar level in the bloodstream becomes little high than the normal range during pregnancy. But the glucose level returns to normal after child birth.
The pancreas secrets insulin which helps to lower the blood sugar level in the body. But during pregnancy, the placenta releases some of the hormones which dilutes the effect of insulin. This is known as insulin resistance. So now the pancreas secretes more of insulin to overcome this insulin resistance for the body. Now if a woman during pregnancy does secrete more insulin, the glucose level increases in the body and the woman develops gestational diabetes.
Gestational diabetes greatly depends upon obesity and the ethnicity of the women, but a definite genetic link has not been identified.
This it is a result of the environment control gene expression.
