Biology
1 answer:
kozerog [31]3 years ago
5 0

The answer is D. A boy’s heart rate increases when running. Why? First of all homeostasis is all about balance in one’s body. So you can’t immediately cross out answer choices: a, b , and e. Those don’t talk about keeping balance within someone or an organisms body. And you can also immediately eliminate answer choice C because that answer choice is talking about inheritance which coincides with genetics. Lastly the heart rate increase to cool the boy’s body temperature. It’s trying to reach the equilibrium of the body temperature since it’s no longer at balance since he started running. That’s why he starts to sweat (I know that it doesn’t mention that but you should kind of get that since he’s running). Swear cools down your body.

What is electrophoresis? Why does it allow scientists to separate pieces of DNA?
attashe74 [19]
Genetic fingerprinting – the analysis of DNA in order to identify the individual from which the DNA was taken to establish the genetic relatedness of individuals. It is now commonly used in forensic science (for example to identify someone from a blood sample) and to determine whether individuals of endangered species in captivity have been bred or captured from the wild. 
<span>•DNA sequencing – the determination of the precise sequence of nucleotides in a sample of DNA or even a whole genome e.g. the Human Genome Project. </span>

<span>The process of electrophoresis: </span>
<span>DNA is chopped, close to the VNTR regions, into fragments using restriction enzymes. The DNA fragments are placed on the agarose gel and a direct current is applied continuously to the gel. The DNA fragments are attracted to the anode. The shorter the fragment, the faster it moves. </span>
<span>The fragments are transferred onto an absorbent paper placed on top of the gel. The paper is heated to separate the 2 strands in each DNA molecule. Complementary probes which have a radioactive phosphorus isotope are and this pair up with the DNA strands. The paper is placed on an X-ray film and the film goes dark due to radiation emitted by the probes. Now we end up with a pattern of dark stripes on the film matching the positions reached by the fragments in the agarose gel.</span>

The meninges is a three-layered, membranous covering of the brain and spinal cord. Read the descriptions below and then click an
harina [27]

Answer:

The question is incomplete as the boxes of description is not given but the missing part is attached in the image-

Brain and spinal cord have a membranous covering made up of three layers, altogether known as meninges. These 3 layers are known as the Dura mater follows by the arachnoid mater and inner layer is the pia mater.

The description of the different layers are as follows-

1. Dura mater is the most superficial layer of the meninges. The superior sagittal sinus is present within this dura mater.

It creates tough inward folds that distinguished the cerebral hemispheres. Lines the inner side of the cranium in the skull.

2. Arachnoid mater is the middle layer present under the dura mater layer that surrounds the subarachnoid space. This layer is present Immediately deep to the subdural space.

3. Pia mater makes the deepest layer that follows the contours of the surface of the brain.
