Answer: The parasympathetic nervous system and sympathetic nervous system play opposite roles

Explanation:

To ensure a stable internal environment (homeostasis) is achieved, the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) and sympathetic nervous system (SNS) play OPPOSITE roles.

The PNS dominate during relaxed periods and stimulates the

- liver to break down glycogen

- constriction of bladder to pass out urine

- increases heartbeat

- dilate pupils etc

The SNS, in contrast dominate in times of emergency or stressful periods and do the EXACT opposite of the processes mentioned above.

Thus homeostasis is maintained

The gene that causes sickle-cell disease is present in a higher percentage of residents of sub-Saharan Africa than among those o
Ivanshal [37]

Ans.

Sickle-cell disorder is a genetic disorder, which shows defected red blood cells, due to mutation in the genes for hemoglobin protein.

Malaria is common in sub-Saharan Africa region and there, natural selection favored gene for sickle cells, because it might be beneficial to people having sickle cell disease that makes them able to survive in such condition and transmit their genes to offspring.

On the other hand, in those Africans, who moved to United States, where malaria is uncommon or absent, natural selection favored normal, wild type genes, resulting in fewer people with defected sickle cell.

Hence,  sub-Saharan African population shows higher percentage of mutated gene for sickle cell as compared to population of United States.

Thus, the evolutionary process behind this difference is 'natural selection.'

Answer:

The first step in the Scientific Method is to make objective observations. These observations are based on specific events that have already happened and can be verified by others as true or false. Step 2. Form a hypothesis.

Explanation:

The hypothesis is an educated guess as to what will happen during your experiment. The hypothesis is often written using the words "IF" and "THEN." For example, "If I do not study, then I will fail the test." The "if' and "then" statements reflect your independent and dependent variables
