You suspect that a serious developmental disorder is due to a chromosome abnormality and prepare a karyotype from an affected in

dividual. In analyzing the karyotype, how could you distinguish trisomy from a chromosome structural defect such as a duplication?
The chromosome number in trisomy would be normal; in a duplication, there would be one more chromosome.

In both cases there would be an extra chromosome, but in trisomy there would be three chromatids on one chromosome and in a duplication there would be two chromatids on one chromosome.

In trisomy there would be one extra chromosome; in a duplication, the number of chromosomes would be normal, but one chromosome would have two copies of a portion of the chromosome.

The chromosome number in both cases would be normal, but in trisomy there would be three chromatids on one chromosome and in a duplication there would be two chromatids on one chromosome.

The correct answer is: In trisomy there would be one extra chromosome; in a duplication, the number of chromosomes would be normal, but one chromosome would have two copies of a portion of the chromosome.  

Trisomy is a type of polysomy (chromosome aberration with extra number of chromosome/s) and also type of aneuploidy (an abnormal number of chromosomes).

Instead of the normal two (one from mother one from father) chromosomes, people with trisomy have three chromosomes. This condition occurs when chromosome pairs fail to separate properly during cell division.

Duplication, on the other hand, usually refers to a region of DNA that is being duplicated. This condition occurs as products of several types of errors in DNA replication and repair machinery.

lions [1.4K]
I believe the correct response is A. The population of secondary consumers would decrease, as now these organisms can't obtain energy through the food they consume which is the primary consumers as there is none and thus the population in higher tropic level dependent on them would decrease. This is the secondary consumer.

Which ecosystem service would suffer from the opening of a mineral mine along a small mountain range?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

D. Supporting

Explanation:

Ecosystem services include provisioning, regulating, culture and supporting services.

Opening of a mineral mine along a small mountain range will affect the supporting services of ecosystem because supporting services deals with soil formation, provision of habitat and nutrition cycle.

Opening of mineral mine will destroy the tosoil, landscape, forests and wildlife of mountain area which affect the supporting services such as habitat and soil formation.

Hence, the correct answer is "D. supporting".

You own a winery in Napa Valley. An assistant accidentally leaves the lid for a vat of wine slightly ajar. Would the yeast insid
anastassius [24]

<span>When the lid for a vat of wine is slightly open, the yeast inside can continue to perform alcoholic fermentation because the carbon dioxide produced by the yeast during fermentation will act as a blanket over the wine.  Nevertheless, the air around the fermenter must be still and enough carbon dioxide should be produced to continue alcoholic fermentation. However, at some point, carbon dioxide will fall and can no longer protect the wine. This is the right time to get your wine covered before it will be vulnerable to undesirable microorganisms. </span>

Therefore, open fermentation is good in the early stages of fermentation because yeast need oxygen to synthesize sterols and assimilate fatty acids to ensure the nutrients it needs to multiply and ferment the 70% of the sugar from the fruit. Furthermore, the yeast is responsible in decomposing sugar from the grapes into alcohol and carbon dioxide.
