<span>47 chromosomes is the correct answer. Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes, making 46 chromosomes in total. Down's syndrome is the addition of an extra chromosome on chromosome 21, leading to an uneven number.</span>

Suppose a female began menstruating at age 12 and stopped menstruating at age 55. if she never became pregnant and her menstrual
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

561

Explanation:

This is math so I got you.

This is just going to subtract 12 from 55 since we don't now when during her 12th year of age she started or when during her 55th year f age she ended.

55 - 12 = 43, so about 43 years.  Also not going to account for leap years.  So we are just going to say each year had 365 days.  so 43 years and 365 days per year = 15695 days.

If her cycles were each about 28 days we divide the total number of days by 28 and that tells us about how many cycles there were.

15,695 / 28 = 560.5 which I will round to 561

561 cycles means 561 eggs if my biology knowledge is as accurate as I think it is.

When writing an organism’s name using binomial nomenclature, what is the proper forum? (what is capitalized, what is lowercase,
weeeeeb [17]
The binomial name will include the genus and species in that order. Both are italicized with the first letter of the genus being capitalized and the species being all lower case. For example:
Emperor Penguin = Aptenodytes forsteri (can’t italicize on this app but the scientific name would be)

In response to a state of shock, what mechanisms does the sympathetic nervous system utilize in the four distinct stages to help
svetlana [45]

Answer:

Increase in heart rate.

Increase in respiratory rate.

<h2>What is a sympathetic nervous system?</h2>

The peripheral nervous system and the central nervous system are the two primary divisions of the human nervous system, as shown in the image below.

Two additional parts make up the peripheral nervous system. Skeletal muscle movement that is voluntary is controlled by the somatic nervous system. The somatic nervous system is at action when you choose to bring your coffee cup to your lips; it is doing so by engaging the necessary muscles. The autonomic nervous system, which regulates functions outside of our conscious awareness, is the second part of the PNS.

The parasympathetic nervous system and the sympathetic nervous system are additional divisions of the autonomic nervous system (which you are interested in). They have negative consequences on one another, to put it very broadly. While the parasympathetic neural system largely works to calm the body, the sympathetic nervous system often stimulates the body. Although this is a streamlined perspective, it might be helpful to think about it this way.

The sympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system speeds up heartbeat, slows down digestion, opens up airways in the lungs to allow for greater airflow, triggers the liver to release glucose, and relaxes the bladder. All of this wakes up the body and gets it ready to "fight."

The parasympathetic division, in contrast, slows the heart rate, tightens the bronchi in the lungs, and boosts blood flow to the digestive system. The phrase "relax and digest" has been used to describe it.

The parasympathetic nervous system's nerves originate from the brainstem and spinal cord, as shown in the diagram. The "ganglia" (collections of cell bodies) of the sympathetic nervous system, however, exist beyond the spinal cord.

It's interesting to note that whereas the sympathetic nervous system activates the body using both acetylcholine (ACh) and norepinephrine (NE), the parasympathetic nervous system solely needs ACh to affect organs.

The sympathetic and parasympathetic nerve systems are autonomic, which means we typically have minimal control over them.

A standard PCR cycle includes three steps: denaturation (95°C), annealing (55°C), and elongation (65°C).
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Denaturation process: The DNA template  

Annealing process: Primers  

Elongation process: dNTPs and Taq polymerase

Explanation:

For the denaturing process, the only ingredient that is required is the DNA template that will be separated from a double helix (or double strand) into a single strand, by increasing the temperature to 95 C, (at this temperature the hydrogen bonds that keep together the double stranded break). After the double strand is denatured, the following process is annealing. For this, the required ingredient are the primers; these primers will hybridize or anneal according to the nucleotide complementarity to the single strand of the DNA. Finally, for the Elongation process, you will require the Taq polymerase and the dNTPs. The enzyme will synthesize or “generate” a new strand of DNA based on the DNA template, using the provided dNTPs in the direction 5’ to 3’.

I hope this clarify you inquiry.
