dedylja [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

78%

Explanation:

Air is a mixture of nitrogen 78%, oxygen 21%, argon 0.9%, carbon dioxide 0.04% and other gases. Nitrogen is an element that makes up 78% of the air. It is essential to plants for protein synthesis. Though present in large quantities as free nitrogen gas in the atmosphere, it is taken up by plant roots only in the form of ions, such as nitrates and nitrites. Nitrogen is continually recycled in the ecosystem through biological processes involving bacteria.

Autism is a neurological disorder thought to be caused by mutant alleles of one or more genes. Scientists had been wondering why
Digiron [165]

Answer:

There is an accumulation of genetic mutations in the DNA of sperms due to its constant mitosis.

Explanation:

The germinative cells that will become sperms are under constant mitosis. During this process, DNA mutations can happen and be transmitted from one generation of cells to the other as the years go by, and more cell divisions take place, more mutations the DNA in the sperm will have. When the number of mutations reaches a certain level, his child will express these mutations and have autism.

The egg of the mother is not a factor because the germinative cells in women are not under constant mitosis, so there is not an accumulation of gene mutations. Women are born with an exact number of eggs for all their life.
