Maria is testing the behavior of monkeys. First, she shows the monkey a rectangle. Then she shows the monkey a rectangle and a c

ylinder. If the monkey pushes aside the rectangle, Maria gives the monkey a food reward. In the second part of the experiment, Maria removes part of the monkey's brain, after which this problem was very difficult for the monkey. What part of the monkey's brain was removed?

Answer:

The correct answer is "temporal lobe".

Explanation:

The temporal lobe is the part of the brain involved in primary auditory perception by receiving sensory information from the ears and secondary areas and translating in into meaningful units such as speech and words. It was proved since 1954 by Mishkin and Pribram that the removal of the temporal lobe part of the brain produces a severe visual discrimination deficit in monkeys. This is the case for Maria's experiment, when the monkey was not able to differentiate between the rectangle and the cylinder anymore. Therefore, it is very likely that the part of the monkey's brain that was removed was the temporal lobe.

Which describes the missing step?
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

The missing step is oxygen is removed from the water after step 3.

Explanation:

The steps listed by Xavier are:

  1. <em>Water is drawn in trough pores and enters the central cavity. </em>
  2. <em>Food is filtered and digested. </em>
  3. <em>Water leaves trough an opening at the top of the body.</em>

Porifera or sponges are aquatic, immobile invertebrates whose structure is saccular with an upper opening, the osculus.

Sponges absorb water through their pores, where the porocytes are found, and through flagellated cells -the coanocytes- the movement that allows the entrance of water to the spongocele or atrium is produced, in addition to the phagocytosis of organic elements.

Once the water is in the interior chamber of the sponges, the organic particles are phagocyted to be digested, and the oxygen is removed from the water, and passes through diffusion into the cell.  The waste products, as well as carbon dioxide, are released into the water that will be expelled through the osculus.

<u><em>In Xavier's list, the missing step is the removal of oxygen from the water, before it is expelled from the body of the sponge</em></u><em>.</em>

What kind of mutations were more beneficial ? Why ?
Alex
A mutation is a permanent change in the DNA sequence of a gene. This can be beneficial if the change gives a new function to or improves the function of that gene. 

<span>The above is a definition. But one must really define "beneficial". Some regard it as beneficial if it helps the specific individual who has it. Others would think it beneficial if it produced some survival advantage that insured more descendents for that individual. </span>

<span>It is the difference between a mutation that allowed for greater athletic ability, but a decreased desire for offspring, versus a more moderate athletic enhancement, but a greater desire for offspring. </span>

<span>The small percentage of ways to improve an organism, versus the near infinite ways of harming the organism, mean that most mutations are not going to be beneficial. At best, they will be "inconsequential" - such as a new shade of eye color, or a mole on a section of your skin. </span>

The populist notion of "powers" that can come from mutations is wildly inaccurate. Even assuming a minor power like the ability to see infra red radiation would take thousands upon thousands of mutations over vast amounts of time. A mutation for blindness is far more likely.

<span>It should also be noted that the traditional model of evolutionary theory no longer applies to man. We don't allow changes in our environment, and without such changes, there is no need for one trait more than another to predominate. After all, it is irrelevent that a mutation might allow for greater speed in running, when everyone drives a car.</span>
