I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The anatomical adaptation which helps an elephant regulate its body temperature are its large ears increase surface area so that more heat is lost by radiation. Heat can be released as they flap these ears. So there is your correct answer
Answer:
genomic imprinting
Explanation:
Genomic imprinting is a mechanism for regulating gene expression that allows expression of only one of the parental alleles, although both alleles are functional. Unlike most genes in which expression is biallelic, genes that are subjected to this mechanism (imprinted genes) have monoalelic expression; By definition, in an imprinted loci, only one allele is active (maternal or paternal), and the inactive is epigenetically marked by histonic modification and / or methylation of cytosines.
Genomic imprinting can cause some disturbances, among them Prader-Willi syndrome, which is a genetic disorder that involves a partial deletion of chromosome 15q on the paternal chromosome.
Answer: A. mechanisms for which activity is primarily triggered and shaped by the incoming stimulus information.
Explanation:
Bottom-up mechanism is a process in which a body perceives an incoming stimulus and certain physiological changes occurs in the body working in the direction of upwards that is the signals are transferred to the brain so that the brain could interpret the stimulus. This mechanism suggests the fact that our perceptual experience is based upon the sensory stimuli.
Answer:
Their nephron loop is closely wrapped with vasa recta.
Explanation:
Cortical nephrons are located in the cortex.
They form 85% of all the nephrons in the kidney. They are located mostly within superficial cortex of kidney. The loop of henle of a cortical nephron is relatively short and hence not closely wrapped with vasa recta. Efferent arteriole delivers blood to a network of peritubular capillaries.
Answer:12.
Containing two complete sets of chromosomes, one from each parent.
Explanation: Once mitosis is complete, the cell has two groups of 46 chromosomes, each enclosed with their own nuclear membrane. The cell then splits in two by a process called cytokinesis, creating two clones of the original cell, each with 46 monovalent chromosomes.
