How does the human brain store and retrieve memories?

Biology
1 answer:
krek1111 [17]3 years ago

Answer: After consolidation, long-term memories are stored throughout the brain as groups of neurons that are primed to fire together in the same pattern that created the original experience, and each component of a memory is stored in the brain area that initiated it (e.g. groups of neurons in the visual cortex store a sight, neurons in the amygdala store the associated emotion, etc).

Hypothesize how the chromosomes of the parents would look compared to the chromosomes of their child?
marysya [2.9K]

During fertilization, the encounter of gametes results in the fusion of their nuclei. The nucleus of the egg cell thus formed is therefore a mixture of the two nuclei.

So the parent will only give half of his chromosomes, so the child will have 50% of his chromosomes that resemble each of his parents.

Another factor that must be mentioned is the genetic recombination between the chromosomes that occurs during meiosis of the reproductive cells. Thus, this will give a heterogeneous chromosome resulting from recombination of the two chromosomes of each of its parents, and the child will have a unique combination chromosome but keeping the alleles of both parents.

Why might it be beneficial for each firefly species to have its own unique light pattern?
AVprozaik [17]
<span>Fireflies use the bioluminescence to attract mates for mating hence key in reproduction. Therefore, beetles from different species should have different lighting patterns so that they can only attract mates of the same species. This would avoid interspecies mating which would probably involved expending energy in produce nonviable offspring which is inefficient (hence will be unfavoured natural selection).    </span>
