During this phase, chromosomes coil tightly, the nuclear membrane begins to breakdown, and the spindles begin to form.
Andre45 [30]

I believe it is prophase as it the first stage of mitosis where this happens.

anaphase is when chromosomes are pulled away and metaphase is when they are lined up, telophase is when the cell seperates.

The answer is C

Identify each event as the result of mechanical weathering or chemical weathering.
kow [346]

<h3><u>The following events are identified as chemical weathering:</u></h3>
  • The minerals in a marble statue react with water to form acids and pores in the structure.
  • The rocks in a region are streaked orange after being exposed to repeated rains.

<em><u>Reason: </u></em>

When the weathering process occurs due to <em>chemical reaction</em>, then it is considered as chemical weathering.

In <em>the first case</em>, minerals of marble statue are <em>reacting</em> with water to cause weathering. In the <em>second case</em>, due to the <em>acidificaion reaction</em>, the change of the color has happened after exposure to the repeated rains.

<h3><u>The following events are identified as Mechanical weathering:</u></h3>
  • A piece of rock crumbles after being constantly thrashed by strong waves.
  • Industrial runoff forms cracks in a rocky structure in its path.

<em><u>Reason:</u></em>

When the rock is broken into simple pieces <em>without any chemical reaction </em>it is considered as mechanical weathering.

In the <em>first cause</em>, due to the <em>abrasion</em> caused by the strong waves, weathering has happened, in the <em>second case</em> industrial run off may be of varying temperature and thus may cause <em>heating or cooling</em> of the rock and causes weathering.

By about ____ months of age, different circuits in the brain begin to control infants’ looking at faces, allowing infants to dis
mojhsa [17]

Answer: 2-3

Explanation:

A biological neural network or neural circuit is a set of ordered synaptic connections that occur as a result of the binding of neurons to others in their corresponding regions following neural migration. At birth, a baby has an average of 100 billion neurons, but few neural connections. These will multiply as the child grows, through environmental, sensory, cognitive and movement stimulation. <u>Stimulating mobility and physical activity also has a positive effect on cognitive functioning by modifying the activity of certain brain areas</u>. Physical exercise has beneficial effects on brain function, such as promoting neuroplasticity and increasing learning and memory performance, which may be due to increased expression of various neural growth factors.

<u>Finally, environmental stimulation is basic for harmonious brain development and for laying the neurophysiological foundations of our children's future brains. </u>Thus, there are many mechanisms that nature has at its disposal to prevent babies from being left helpless.  All of them favour their relationship with adults and thus their neurons, at a time of maximum growth of their extensions, can form the brain circuits that allow the acquisitions that make them advance in their neurodevelopment. If babies do not receive from their adults sufficient affection and attention, brain growth will be much less and their neurodevelopment will inevitably be delayed, because what makes the brain grow and change is precisely the creation of new circuits as it learns new things, and those who can learn most are the most experienced. By aboyt 2-3 months is when circuits of the brain begin to be created.
