*Sickle cell disease is a constitutional corpuscular hemolytic anemia related to an abnormal structure of the globin chain. It is an autosomal recessive disease, which means homozygosity is necessary to fully express the illness.
*It corresponds to the synthesis of an abnormal hemoglobin, HbS, which is different from normal Hb (HbA).

*The S allele (located in the chromosome 11), responsible for the anomaly, is especially widespread in the African continent, it is also found in other regions of the Mediterranean.

*Mutation GAG to GTG
leading to the substitution Glutamine by a valine in position 6 of the chain of the globine.</span>

Explanation:

A primary source is an animal that eats only plants. (herbivore) A secondary source is an animal that only eats herbivores (carnivores)

B has birds; which are food for carnivores, and fruits, nuts, and blossoms; which are food for herbivores.

D has vegetables and grains; which are food for herbivores, and meat; which is food for carnivores

The other options have only food for carnivores, or only food for herbivores, so the answer is 3

Birds, insects, and many reptiles excrete nitrogenous waste in the form of uric acid, which _____. see concept 44.2 (page 980)
Nadusha1986 [10]
Birds, insects, and many reptiles excrete nitrogenous waste in the form of uric acid, which saves water. 
Nitrogenous waste in the body tend to form toxic ammonia, which must be excreted. Mammals such as human excrete urea, while birds, reptiles, and some terrestrial invertebrates produce uric acid as waste in the form of a white paste or power. The production of uric acid involves a complex metabolic pathway that  is energetically costly in comparison to processing of other nitrogenous wastes such as urea or ammonia, it has the advantages of reducing water loss and, hence, reducing the need for water.

I need help with my science
IgorC [24]

Answer:

A theory is the most logical explanation of events that occur in nature. The explanation often results from the use of the scientific method. First, a problem must be stated. Then, after gathering information, a hypothesis, or logical solution, is formed. The solution is then tested in an experiment. The factor that is tested in an experiment is called the variable. This factor is not contained in the control setup. Sometimes principles of chemistry, the study of how substances change and combine, are involved in experiments. At other times, principles of physics are instead.

The metric system is used for all measurements in science. Some basic units in this system are the liter for volume, the kilogram for mass, the degree Celsius for temperature, and the meter for length. Sometimes, the density of a substance, or its mass per unit volume must be measured. If dimensional analysis is needed, a conversion factor must be used.
