Individuals with these mutations typically have familial hypercholesterolemia.
These genes provide information for the formation of the low-density lipoprotein receptor, a receptor that binds to low-density lipoproteins (LDLs). LDLs carry the cholesterol in the blood and regulate the amount of cholesterol in the circulation. Mutations to these genes either reduce the number of receptors or cause several disruptions to their function. This results in high blood cholesterol levels and in a higher risk for heart disease.
Answer:
A cornea transplant involves the grafting of a donor cornea into a recipient's anterior eye. The sutures to hold the graft in place must stay in place for a long period of time because the cornea is slow to heal. ... The fibrous layer includes the tough sclera (the "white" of the eye) as well as the transparent cornea. so TRUE
Explanation:
The answer is behavioral isolation.
Reproductional isolation is a way to prevent closely related species to mate each other. This is due to reproductive barriers which can be either prezygotic (before fertilization) and postzygotic (after fertilization) barrier. Behavioral isolation is an example of postzygotic barrier. It is based on behavior, including mating sounds and rituals. Thanks to behavior isolation, the different species (in this example gentoo penguins and emperor penguins) will have different mating rituals so they could attract only individuals of their own species, respectively.
Answer:
Wool
Explanation:
"The hair of sheep is sheared and processed into wool."
The current taxonomic system now has eight levels in its hierarchy, from lowest to highest, they are: species, genus, family, order, class, phylum, kingdom, domain. Thus species are grouped within genera, genera are grouped within families, families are grouped within orders, and so on
