Answer:

True

Explanation:

The statement "A defendant engaging in an ultrahazardous activity is almost always liable for any harm that results." Is absolutely true as this is a form of Strict Liability Offence.

A Strict Liability Offence is an aspect of tort law that enforces greater liability when damage or harm is as a result of ultrahazardous activity or a faulty and deficient products.

In this case, the plaintiff do not necessarily have to provide evidence(s) of duty or a breach but mainly show that the product was faulty and deficient and that this bad product had promote a lot of harm.

In the paired chromosomes, which pair might have two different chromosomes with very different genetic coding?

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: X and Y chromosomes.

Explanation:

Chromosome that differs from other chromosomes (autosomes) in shape, size and behavior are called sex chromosome, allosome, heterochromosome or idiochromosome. These sex chromosomes are typical mammalian allosomes and are sex-determining in species in which sex is determined by the XX-XY system. The presence of the XX allosomes determines female sex, while the XY allosomes are for male sex. These chromosomes contain different genes, where some are only on the X chromosome and others only on the Y chromosome, and a few are on both.

The size of the human X chromosome is 164 million bases and currently has 1,170 genes. It is composed of many repetitive DNA segments that do not code for any protein or their function is not known. Only 1.7% of the chromosome codes for functional proteins that are low in length compared to the average length of a human gene. It has a small number of genes known as housekeeping or constitutive -(responsible for the basic maintenance of the cell) and most of the genes it contains are expressed in few tissues or are tissue-specific, which is especially true for those expressed in brain regions. So, the X chromosome is larger and has more euchromatin regions than the Y chromosome which only has genes that code for male sexual development. Since females have two X chromosomes and males have only one, during development in females one of the X chromosomes is inactivated at random in each tissue to make a dosage compensation. Otherwise, females would be expressing twice as many genes as a male. And through inactivation and dosage compensation, both males and females will express the same number of genes.

Why does scientific theories change ?

suter [353]

It depends on whatever it's real or just a simple theory. But, at times it may not be simple as it seems, because theories are often left as theories. In the near future (or even now) they'll be testing to see if theories can be proven as a fact!

Good luck!
