Answer:

Artificial selection cannot occur without inherited variation.

Explanation:

Artificial selection is the *process of breeding animals and cultivating plant which have certain desirable inherited characteristics*. It is an intentional way of selection,it is different from natural selection.

In Artificial selection, Animals bred or plants that are cultivated at home garden do not occur exactly the way they are in the wild. They are the result of many centuri of selection process by humans. Man has stipulated such plants/Animal by *selecting out undesired characters to ensure higher yields of resistance*, wherefore inherited traits(variations) are used in the selection process.

*Artificial selection cannot occur without inherited variation because the inherited traits/variation could be adaptations that will help the specie to survive*.

A client whose parkinson's disease is being treated with tolcapone should concurrently take what drug?

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

The correct answer would be levodopa/carbidopa.

Tolcapone is a drug used as an adjunct to levodopa/carbidopa combination medication.

These drugs are used to treat the symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

Tolcapone is used to inhibit enzyme COMT (catechol-O-methyl transferase).

In the brain, levodopa is converted into dopamine which helps in controlling the movement.

Carbidopa helps in preventing the breakdown of levodopa in the blood which allows more levodopa to enter the brain. In addition, it helps in reducing the side-effects associated with levodopa such as vomiting, nausea et cetera.
