which of the following would be least likely to happen as a result of a mutation in a person's skin cells?

1 answer:

4 0

Its the person's offspring have mutated skin.
because for a mutation to be passed down to an offspring mutation has to happen in the sex cells. so that is the least likely to happen.
since the other may happen for example.
skin cancer: i am not sure how but definitely sure that it is the second least that is gonna happen. (trust me)
reduced functioning of skin cell yes.: if there are changes in the nucleotides which can give a diff amino acid.
and no change. cuz if the mutation occurs but the nucleotides still codes for the same amino acid then there is no problem!!

4. What is an example of positive feedback?

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

It is known as lactation. The suckling action of an infant produces prolactin, which leads to milk production; more suckling leads to more prolactin, which in turn leads to more lactation. This is a positive feedback system as the product (milk) produces more suckling and more hormone. When the child is no longer breast feeding, the prolactin drops off and milk production goes down.

The correct answer to the question is option A.

NEBULA

The object shown in the image is known as a nebula.

Explanation: A nebula is found in interstellar space,it has a form of a giant cloud of dust. When some stars goes into dying process,they explode throwing out gas and dust which forms a nebula.(a supernova remnants nebulae).

Some nebulae(singular form of nebula) are also found where new stars are being formed.

Nebula are the basic building blocks of the universe,they are made up 90% hydrogen,10% helium and other heavier elements in trace amounts from which stars and other solar systems are made.

Nebula exist in 5 distinct types namely;

Emission nebulae, Reflection nebulae,Dark nebulae, Planetary Nebulae and supernova remnants Nebulae.
