A scientific theory is when something has been inferred and proven, but still could be proven false. There could be something to prove it wrong. 

A scientific law is something that is set in stone. Nothing could change it, it is a 100% accurate way of describing or explaining something in our world. For instance, <em>gravity. </em>

I hope this helps!

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

Tan fur helps the mice protect themselves from predators

Explanation:

The entrenchment of this phenotype in the population is powered by natural selection pressures. The mice with fur color that enable them to camouflage with their environment are predated less than mice with other fur colors. These tan mice are therefore more likely to survive and pass their genes to the next generation. Through successive generations, the allelic frequency for the tan fur color increases until it is the dominant allele in the population.

How does the fact that telomeres are long stretches of repeated nucleotides lessen the impact that somatic cells don’t have te
Cloud [144]

Telomerase activity is controlled during development and is extremely low in somatic (body) cells, virtually undetectable. These somatic cells age because they do not frequently use telomerase.

  • Telomeres are repetitive sections at the very ends of chromosomes that are present in a variety of eukaryotic species, including humans and unicellular protists.
  • Each round of DNA replication wears down a little portion of the telomeres, which serve as caps to safeguard the interior chromosomal regions.
  • Most somatic (body) cells do not typically have telomerase activity, but certain adult stem cells and germ cells—the cells that produce sperm and eggs—have.
  • Adult germ cells, tumor cells, and fetal tissues all contain telomerase. Telomerase activity is controlled during development and is extremely low in somatic (body) cells, virtually undetectable. These somatic cells age because they do not frequently use telomerase.

What is the order of the breathing process
NemiM [27]
Step 1-
Your diaphragm moves down as it contracts. Your ribs move outward. These movements make the space inside the chest larger.
Step 2-

Air rushes in through the nose and mouth and passes through the throat. Air then moves past the epiglottis which is open into the trachea.

Step 3

Air moves into your bronchi. The bronchi branch out and end in tiny air sacs, called alveoli.

Step 4

<span>Air moves into your alveoli. Oxygen moves through the walls of alveoli and capillaries, entering the blood.</span>

Step 5

Carbon dioxide moves from the blood through the walls of capillaries and alveoli in order to be expelled by the lungs.

Step 6

Your diaphragm moves up as it relaxes. Your ribs move inward. These movements make the space inside the chest smaller.

Step 7

<span>Your lungs are squeezed and air is pushed out of the alveoli. The air travels back through your bronchi, trachea, and nose and mouth.</span>
