Answer: (C) genetic predisposition along with an environmental trigger.

Explanation:

We inherit our genes from both parents. Scientists believe several genes are associated with an increased risk of schizophrenia, but that no gene causes the disease by itself. In fact, recent research has found that people with schizophrenia tend to have higher rates of rare genetic mutations and it probably disrupts brain development.

Scientists think interactions between genes and the environment may be a reasoning for schizophrenia to develop. Many environmental factors may be involved, such as exposure to viruses or malnutrition before birth, problems during birth, and other not yet known factors.

In Experiment 5, how did the shape of the epidermal cells in the outer skin surface slide compare to the shape of the epidermal

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. The cells in the outer skin surface appeared flat, whereas the cells in the cross section were not flat.

Explanation:

The epidermis is made up of five cell layers, which have different functions: Stratum basale, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, stratum lucidum, and stratum corneum.

Stratum basale is the innermost germinative, single, basal layer of the epidermis composed of basal cuboidal-shaped cells. These cells are the precursor of keratinocytes, this is why this layer is also called germinativum. In this basal layer, there are also Merkel cells as well as melanocytes.

Stratum spinosum refers to the keratinocytes which produce keratin.

Stratum granulosum, this is the layer where keratinization begins. Cells produce hard granules that change to keratin and lipids as they ascend.

Stratum lucidum is conformed of densely compressed cells, which begins to flatten and appear indistinguishable between each other.

Stratum corneum is the most external layer, composed of dead, flattened cells which are released regularly in a process known as desquamation.

What elements and compounds are in the water cycle?

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

All chemical elements that are needed by living things are recycled in ecosystems, including carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, and sulfur. Water is also recycled.

Of the many processes involved in the water cycle, the most important are evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation, and runoff

Earth’s water is constantly in motion. Although the water on Earth is billions of years old, individual water molecules are always moving through the water cycle. The water cycle describes the continuous movement of water molecules on, above, and below Earth’s surface. Like other biogeochemical cycles, there is no beginning or end to the water cycle. It just keeps repeating. During the cycle, water occurs in its three different states: gas (water vapor), liquid (water), and solid (ice). Processes involved in changes of state in the water cycle include evaporation, sublimation, and transpiration.
