Answer: D. An adaptive process that allows children to deal more efficiently with their environment.
Explanation:
Synaptic pruning is a natural process between early childhood and adulthood which occurs in the brain. The brain removes the extra synapses during synaptic pruning. Synapses are brain structures that allow the neurons to transmit to another neuron an electrical or chemical signal.
Synaptic pruning is thought to help the brain transition from adolescence, when it can quickly learn and make new connections, to adulthood, when it is much more stable in its structure, but can concentrate on a single question for longer and conduct more complex thinking processes. Synaptic pruning make brain more adaptive to the external environment in early ages.
Hence, the correct option is D. An adaptive process that allows children to deal more efficiently with their environment.
Answer;
-Gametic Isolation
Explanation;
-Gametic isolation is a type of prezygotic barrier where the gametes (egg and sperm) come into contact, but no fertilization takes place.
-In Gametic isolation is when sperm of one species may not be able to fertilize the eggs of another species. For instance, sperm may not be able to survive in the reproductive tract of females of the other species, or biochemical mechanisms may prevent the sperm from penetrating the membrane surrounding the other species' eggs.
Answer:
Genetics is a branch of science that deals with the study of genes, their sequence, function, variation, and heredity.
Increasing understanding of genetics help in making new fields of health care, for example,
- Gene therapy helps in treating various genetic diseases such as cystic fibrosis et cetera.
- Molecular genetics help in the development of more precise methods for diagnosis such as ELISA.
- Pedigree analysis and karyotypes help in early detection of possible hereditary diseases.
- DNA fingerprinting helps in detecting criminal suspects, paternity test, identification of dead organism et cetera.
The lack of access to the healthy food has caused the growth of Sebastian to slow down. In the case healthy food is provided to him, he can grow into the size he was genetically suited to. This process is known as the canalization. Canalization term is used as the measure of the ability of any given genotype to result in the same phenotype in-spite of the environmental variability.
