Answer:

Genetics (DNA)

Explanation:

Your chromosomes contain the blueprint for your body – your genes. Almost every cell in the human body contains a copy of this blueprint, mostly stored inside a special sac within the cell called the nucleus.

<em>Chromosomes are long strands of a chemical substance called deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). </em>

Parents pass on traits or characteristics, such as eye color and blood type, to their children through their genes. Some health conditions and diseases can be passed on genetically too.

Each variation of a gene is called an allele (pronounced ‘AL-eel’). These two copies of the gene contained in your chromosomes influence the way your cells work.

The two alleles in a gene pair are inherited, one from each parent. Alleles interact with each other in different ways. These are called inheritance patterns. Examples of inheritance patterns include:

AysviL [449]

Answer:

1st Step: Observation

2nd Step: Questioning

3rd Step: Data Collection

4th Step: Data analysis

5th Step: Communication

In the scientific method, the first step is always to make an observation. You can observe anything in your environment, or a phenomena, or behavior.

The next step would be to question. You form a question to find a possible explanation as to why what you had observed occurred. This is also when you make a hypothesis. An educated guess or a proposal that could explain the event.

After you make a hypothesis, you start an experiment where you will collect data. The data you collect would then be analyzed (4th step). From there you build your conclusion to determine whether your hypothesis holds true.

The last step would be communication. You will communicate the results of your method. This allows people to review your data and process, which may be supported or invalidated. Communication is critical in the scientific world because your results could be the basis for further investigation.

Which finding would have disproved Virchow’s hypothesis?
dexar [7]

Answer:

Virchow was a German scientist whose most important work was in the filed of cellular biology and pathology.His scientific experiments and examinations aimed to disprove the idea of spontaneous generation. This idea is based on an assumption that life can spontaneously appear out of non-living matter. After years of scientific work he concluded that only living cells can produce other cells, or that only life can produce life.Therefore, if it was somehow proven that cells can be generated from non-living matter, that would disprove his findings.
