1. The main aim of the Human Genome Project was to determine the DNA Sequence of every human gene.

2. Variation in skin colour is an example of polygenic inheritance

This Human Karyotype is unusual because it has an extra chromosome at chromosome 21.

Klinefelters syndrome is shown in the second figure

Explanation:

1. The Human Genome Project's main goal was to sequence all the 30,000 genes and 3 million base pairs in their makeup for the early detection of diseases, gene therapy and molecular level studies.

2. Human skin colour is determined by the pigment melanin. The Dominant allele is responsible for dark colours as it produces more melanin. The melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) gene and Tyrosinase enzyme codes for the human skin colour. Polygenic inheritance are the traits which are controlled by one or more genes.

<u>figures:</u>

<u>The extra chro</u>mosome at the 21st chromosome pairs is called trisomy 21 or Down's Syndrome. It is due to the abnormal cell division/meiosis resulting in an extra X chromosome. This leads to thechanges the in physical development of  the individual.

Klinefelter's Syndrome: There are 47 chromosomes and 2 or more X chromosomes in this syndrome of males. The resulting male suffering from Klinefelter would be sterile and have poorly developed testicles.

Ede4ka [16]
<span>Insects are found in almost all ecosystems on Earth, with the rarity being oceans. While some species, such as coconut crabs, sand hoppers, woodlice and pill bugs dwell on land, crustaceans are generally found in water — and usually oceanic — regions. Adapting to their habitat, many insect species evolved wings — two pairs for most and one pair for others. A tracheal system is also present for breathing. Crustaceans, on the other hand, breathe using gill-like mechanisms.</span>

Redacta un escrito dónde expliques como está formado(un ecosistema), menciona ejemplos y como sigue una estabilidad por el equil
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Un ecosistema esta formado por facotres abioticos y bioticos.

Los factores bioticos son aquellos que presentan signos vitales, es decir que cumplen con la vida, metabolismo, respiracion, entre otras funciones vivas.

Los factores abietos son aquellos que no tienen vida pero con los que los factores bioticos intercambian energia, un ejemplo de esto son las rocas, los vientos, los sedimentos, la tierra fertil.

Los factores bioticos serian los organismos vivos como los animales, que al funcionar como sistemas abiertos de intercambio de energia constante mantienen un equilibrio fisico biologico con los factores bioticos.

Explanation:

Los ecosistemas cumplen con una cadena que no debe romperse ni faltar ningun eslabon, si esta continuidad se interrumpe con la extincion de una especie como animal o vegetal el ecosistema variará, y cambiara toda su conformacion.

Es un conjunto de factores bioticos y abioticos en armonia que se complementan e intercambian energia entre si de manera ordenada en eslabones, si uno de estos eslabones se rompe, se extingue, o se modifica por intervencion del hombre u otros factores TODO el escosistema se verá modificado o afectado.
