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.

In 1985 a biologist counted 750 pine trees in a 250 hectare forest. Using similar counting techniques, the biologist counted 1,2
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

Suppose that we have a given function f(x)

The average rate of change of the function between two values x₁ and x₂ is given by:

r = \frac{f(x_2) - f(x_1)}{x_2 - x_1}

a) We want to find the average (rate) of change on the size of population from 1985 to 1995.

We have that:

f(1985) = 750

f(1995) = 1500

Then we have:

r = \frac{1500 - 750}{1995 - 1985}  = 750/10 = 75

This means that the population of trees increases, in average, at a rate of 75 trees per year.

b) What is the density of trees each year that they were counted?

This will be equal to the quotient between the number of trees and the area.

1985: number of trees = 750 pines

         area = 250 ha

Then the density is:

D(1985) = (750 pines)/(250 ha) = 3 pines/ha

So 1985, there were 3 pines per hectare.

1990: number of trees = 1250 pines

         area = 250 ha

Then the density is:

D(1990) = (1250 pines)/(250 ha) = 5 pines/ha

1995: number of trees = 1500 pines

         area = 250 ha

The density is:

D(1995) = (1500 pines)/(250 ha) = 6 pines/ha

3) now we want to get the average change between 1985 and 1995 in the density, this will be:

r = \frac{D(1995) - D(1885)}{1995 - 1985}  = \frac{6 pines/ha - 3pines/ha}{10}  = 0.3 pines/ha

So, on average, each year the number of pines per hectare increases by 0.3

Number the following steps in the correct order and tell which stage it occurs in:
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

The correct answer is given below:

Explanation:

1. A cleavage furrow or cell plate forms, separating the nuclei - Cytokinesis.  During cell division, after division of nucleus, cytoplasm divides by furrow in an animal cells and by cell plate formation in the plant cells.

2. Chromosomes line up at the equator and chromatids are attached to spindle fibres—Metaphase. During metaphase all the chromosomes get arranged on the equatorial plane or the central plane

3. Nuclear membrane and nucleolus reappear- Telophase. The nuclear membrane starts to form around each of the daughter chromosomes and nucleolus also reappears in the daughter nuclei.

4. Genetic material replicates and is joined at the centromere- S-phase of the interphase. Duplication or copying of the DNA occurs in this phase  

5. Centromeres divide and single-stranded chromosomes move to the poles- Anaphase.  During anaphase, the sister chromatids of each chromosome gets separated and move to the opposite poles.
