Answer:

The correct answer is-Wernicke's area.

Explanation:

Wernicke's area is located on the left side of the brain in the temporal lobe. It is that region of the brain which is responsible for language development and language comprehension.  

So if a problem occurs in the Wernicke's area of the brain than it will be difficult for that person to form a meaningful speech and understanding the words being spoken to them. That person will be able to talk fluently and in phrases but his sentences might lack meaning.  

Therefore the damage to Gia's brain was probably localized in her Wernicke's area.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

here

Explanation:

In a negative feedback loop, an increase in a factor will result in a change in the body that'll reduce the value of this factor to the set point.

For example, an increase in the blood glucose levels after a meal will cause an increase in the levels of insulin in the blood which will lower the glucose levels.

However, in this example, an increase in the pressure generated by the fetus also increases the frequency of uterus contractions. So the more the pressure, the more the contractions.

Tanya [424]

For example:  GGATACCTAGGTAAT

Insertion: GGAT<u>G</u>ACCTAGGTAAT

a nucleotide that was not present before is inserted into the original sequence

Substitution: <u>C</u>GATACCTAGGTAAT

the first nucleotide was substituted in for another (C for G)

Frameshift (basically a insertion or deletion, we'll try deletion here): GATACCTAGGTAAT

the first nucleotide was deleted, causing the reading frame to be shifted (instead of GGA as the first codon, we have GAT)

Olegator [25]

RNA contains a sugar which is known as ribose, and which contains an extra group of hydroxyl (OH-) while DNA contains deoxyribose sugar.

RNA contains four nitrogenous bases cytosine, adenine, guanine, and uracil, while DNA contains cytosine, adenine, guanine, and thymine.

Double helix means two stranded structure like DNA, while RNA is single stranded.

DNA molecule is much longer polymer than RNA molecule.
