Answer:

mediante mutaciones en el ADN  

Explanation:

El desastre ecológico de Chernóbil estuvo asociado a la liberación de importantes cantidades de radiación en forma de radioisótopos hacia la atmósfera, como producto de la explosión de un reactor que contenía toneladas de uranio radiactivo. La exposición a este tipo de radiación aumenta las probabilidades de sufrir mutaciones en la molécula de ADN. Dicho de otro modo, la radiación incrementa las chances de sufrir cambios en el material genético hereditario. Las mutaciones generalmente son corregidas por los mecanismos de reparación del ADN; sin embargo, existen ocasiones donde las mutaciones no son reparadas. Por otro lado, las mutaciones a menudo tienen efectos deletéreos y por lo tanto están asociadas a enfermedades, ya que los cambios en la secuencia genética provocan consecuentemente también cambios en las proteínas codificadas por estos genes. Por ejemplo, las mutaciones sufridas por genes supresores de tumores se encuentran asociadas a la aparición de células cancerosas por el mal funcionamiento de dichos genes. El efecto de la mutación depende del tipo celular que sufre la mutación: aunque las mutaciones sufridas por células somáticas pueden afectar la salud, estos tipos de mutaciones no son heredadas (simplemente porque las células somáticas no se heredan), mientras que las mutaciones sufridas por células germinales, es decir, en las células encargadas de la formación de gametos, pueden ser transmitidas a la descendencia.

31. The data in the accompanying graph show evidence of disease in the human body. D 38 - - E Body Temperature (°C) 377 А IDOT B
shepuryov [24]

Homeostasis keeps the organism in a dynamic equilibrium within the homeostatic range. <em>A </em><em>disruption i</em><em>n </em><em>dynamic equilibrium </em><em>is indicated by the </em><em>temperature </em><em>change between point C and D.</em> Option C is correct.

<h3>What is homeostasis?</h3>

Homeostasis is the organism's capacity to keep the body in constant internal equilibrium, even when the external environment is oscillating.

Homeostasis is critical to keep the correct internal functioning of the body.

Different functions -blood pressure, body temperature, respiratory rate, and blood glucose levels, among others- are kept in a<u><em> </em></u><u><em>restricted range</em></u><u><em> </em></u>around a reference point, even though external conditions may be changing.

When a sudden change occurs in the internal functioning that disturbs this equilibrium, the organism counters it back by negative or positive feedback.

<h3>Graph interpretation</h3>

In the exposed graph we can see,

  • The restricted range of homeostasis at a constant temperature around 37ºC.

  • Six reference points (A-F) withing 12 hours.

  • Dynamic equilibrium is kept in the range of homeostasis around 37ºC, excepting for point D that reaches 38ºC.  

The references point A, B, and C suggest that during the first 10 hours, approximately, the body was in equilibrium.

A change in the internal functioning broke the equilibrium, rising temperature to 38ºC, out of the homeostatic range.

The organism took the internal values to their original state, and at points E and F, the organism was in equilibrium again.

Gwar [14]

The central communication conduit between the brain and the rest of the body is the spinal cord. The spinal cord is a long thin structure that comes from medulla oblongata in the brain stem to the bottom of the spine. The spinal cord is made up of nerves that transmit messages between the brain and the rest of the body.

kap26 [50]

The Answer is Studs.

Vertical structural members are called Studs. This is the term which is used in construction. There are exterior and interior walls which are framed, these walls are known as bearing walls, and some are also non- bearing. Whenever there is foundation in a place, after the first floor deck these bearing walls are formed.
