The hypothesis would be: Consumption of a single apple every day will reduce the number of visits to the doctor.

The hypothesis is a proposed explanation that is a starting point for further investigations. So, in this case, we assume that eating one apple a day will keep us healthy, without the need for the doctor.

Answer:

The correct answer is would be - Eating a single apple every day changes the frequency or number of visiting doctors.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is an explanation or an idea that is based on the observation with prior scientific knowledge which meant to be tested by the experiments and scientific methods.

In this phrase, one can get an idea about the effect of intake of an apple every day affects the numbers of the visits to the doctor it can be hypothesized by two hypothesis-

1) Eating an apple a day does not change the frequency of visiting the doctor. or.

2) Eating an apple on a daily basis decreases the number of visiting doctors.

Thus, the correct answer would be -  Eating a single apple every day changes the frequency or number of visiting doctors.

Answer:a) decreased chromatin condensation

Explanation:

During eukaryotic cell division a chromatin becomes obvious and it is simply a mass of genetic material made up of DNA and proteins which condenses to form chromosomes.

The chromatin primarily function in the compression the DNA into a unit so compacted that will be so tiny and can fit within the nucleus.

Chromatin condensation is driven by condensins and interactions between histones.

Condensins however, are large protein complexes whose central role in cell division is chromosome organization and segregation.

Chemical manipulation as stated above is decreases the rate of chromatin condensation.

Drosophila melanogaster (select all that apply): Group of answer choices Have the significant disadvantage of a multiple-month l
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Contains large polytene chromosome that permit visual inspection of genomic events.

Were used to study the genetic effects of mutations.

Were used to establish the concept of chromosomal inheritance.

Explanation:

<em>Drosophila melanogaster </em>is a model organism that is used by scientists to study the genes and effect of a mutation on the genes. Drosophila is used as a model organism as it has a very short life cycle and the offspring can be produced in a short duration of time.

Because of these characteristics, Thomas Hunt Morgan wanted to study the factors of inheritance on the <em>Drosophila</em> and concluded in the form of the chromosomal theory of inheritance by the effect of mutation on genes that lead to linkage mapping.

Also, the salivary gland of fruit fly contains the polytene chromosome which allows us to look into the gene events.

Thus, the selected options are correct.

What is the difference between a single gene disorder, multifactorial disorder and a chromosomal abnormality?
photoshop1234 [79]
There are approximately 25,000 genes contained on the 46 chromosomes in each cell of the human body. This means that one chromosome contains thousands of genes. A person can have normal chromosomes in number and structure, but still have a disease or condition caused by a mutation in one or more of the genes on the chromosomes. A single gene defect usually does not cause the chromosome structure or number to be abnormal. Similarly, a person can have normal genes; however, if the person has extra copies of genes due to a chromosome abnormality, then those extra copies can cause the genes to not work properly.
