Answer:

The leukocyte, commonly known as a white blood cell (or WBC), is a major component of the body’s defenses against disease. Leukocytes protect the body against invading microorganisms and body cells with mutated DNA, and they clean up debris. Platelets are essential for the repair of blood vessels when damage to them has occurred; they also provide growth factors for healing and repair.Although leukocytes and erythrocytes both originate from hematopoietic stem cells in the bone marrow, they are very different from each other in many significant ways. For instance, leukocytes are far less numerous than erythrocytes: Typically there are only 5000 to 10,000 per µL. They are also larger than erythrocytes and are the only formed elements that are complete cells, possessing a nucleus and organelles. And although there is just one type of erythrocyte, there are many types of leukocytes. Most of these types have a much shorter lifespan than that of erythrocytes, some as short as a few hours or even a few minutes in the case of acute infection.

Hope this helps :)

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

the separation of one trait does not influence the separation of another trait.

Explanation:

Alleles are different versions of the same trait. For example, brown alleles, green alleles, and blue alleles are different versions of the eye color trait.

All sexually-reproducing organisms possess two alleles for each trait. These alleles may or may not be the same (e.g., an organism may have one allele for brown eyes and one allele for blue eyes, or it may have two alleles for green eyes, etc.).

Gametes, or sex cells (egg cells and sperm cells), are formed during meiosis—a two-step process that only occurs in sexually-reproducing organisms. During meiosis, according to the law of segregation, chromatids that carry alleles are separated into different gametes. According to Mendel's law of independent assortment, the separation of the alleles of one trait does not influence the separation of the alleles of another trait.

Which of the following best describes the solar radiation absorbed by and radiated from earth?
vovangra [49]

Answer: c. The Earth’s surface is responsible for a small fraction of heat radiation to space.

Explanation:

In later ages the large amount of sun's energy is reflected back by the terrestrial surface back to the space. But now due to the abundance of large concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is responsible for the absorption of thermal energy from sunlight by these gases causing the atmosphere to be hot. This is the reason of global warming. Now only small fraction of heat is radiated back to the space.

It's mostly seen in Trisomy e.g. trisomy 21 (Down syndrome), trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome) and trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome).
