Thermal - Pertaining to or characterised by heat.

Mechanical - Pertaining to, governed by, or in accordance with, mechanics, or the laws of motion

Electrical - A power in nature, a manifestation of energy, exhibiting itself when in disturbed equilibrium or in activity by a circuit movement

Chemical - A substance made up of chemical elements or produced from a chemical process

Answer:

Thermal relates to how temperature affects organisms

Mechanical relates to movement and pressures

Electrical relates to current (nerve impulses)

Chemical relates to the link between chemistry and biology like using tools to find new things in organisms

What is one condition that must be met for a population to be in genetic equilibrium? A. There is nonrandom mating. B. There is
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

C. There is no genetic drift

Explanation:

A population is said to be in genetic equilibrium when the genetic variation of a population remains constant over many generations.

For a population to remain in genetic equilibrium it is necessary that external factors that disturb the equilibrium should not be present.

The external factors that are responsible for disturbing the genetic equilibrium are mutations, non-random mating, genetic drift and gene flow.

Genetic drift occurs when due to a chance event the allele frequency of a population either increases or decreases and this is usually common in small populations.

Thus, genetic drift should not occur so that the population can be in genetic equilibrium.

Respiration is a process where many chemical bonds inside the body break and release energy. This energy is used to perform vari
dangina [55]

Answer:

The  correct answer is chemical energy from broken bonds is transformed into mechanical energy.

Explanation:

Muscle contraction need energy in form of ATP.ATP contain 2 high energized phosphoanhydride bonds.

                  The hydrolysis of phosphoanhydride bonds releases chemical energy which is transformed into mechanical energy for helping the muscles to move.

Meiosis reduces chromosome number and rearranges genetic information. Explain how the reduction and rearrangement are accomplish
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Meiosis is a form of cell division that occurs in the sex cells of organisms. It ensures the reduction of a diploid cell to an haploid cell to allow for the formation of a diploid zygote after fertilization (contribution of both parents haploid sex cells to give a diploid zygote). Thus, this process is very essential and important.

The reduction is accomplished by 2 divisions after the duplication of chromosomes

- first division: separation of homologous pairs of chromosomes (this reduces the total in half)

- second division: separation of sister chromatids of a chromosome.

The rearrangement in meiosis occurs by crossing over/genetic recombination.

This is the exchange of genetic material between homologous pairs of chromosome bringing about a rearrangement and genetic variation

An example of a chromosomal abnormality that arises as a result of defects in this process is the Down Syndrome which is caused by a nondisjunction of the chromosomes 21 pair in a sex cell.

This condition produces offsprings that have some characteristic facial features, short stature etc

What are monosaccharides made up of?
77julia77 [94]
<h2>Answer</h2>

The monosaccharides is formed by just bounding of C, H and O.

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Monosaccharides are simplest molecule or unit in the carbohydrates group which united with each other to form di, tri or polysaccharide structure. As these are the simplest unit in carbohydrates, they are only formed by numbers of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen atoms. The number of atoms in the chain of monosaccharides varies with changing required compound. for example in deoxyribose, one of hydrogen is not present in its structure but present in ribose.
