<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Scientific notation

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u>Scientific notation</u> is a means of expressing numbers as a multiple of two factors: a number between 1 and 10; and ten raised to a power, or exponent.
  • <em><u>Scientists are capable of handling very large numbers or very small numbers using scientific notation. For example, instead of writing, 0.00000035, we write, 3.5 × 10^-7, or 200000, we write. 2.0 × 10^5</u></em>
  • From the example; 3.5 is the digit tern and 10^-7 is the exponential term.
  • A positive exponent (e.g 10^5) indicates that the decimal point is shifted that number of points (5) to the right while a negative exponent ( 10^-7) indicates that the decimal point is shifted that number of places(7) to the left.

would a scientist who studies evolution also have to learn about other branches of biology? why or why not?
scZoUnD [109]
Yes they will have to learn about the other branches of biology so that they can have more background knowledge on evolution and can also have facts to back the fact that evolution is true

Integration mechanisms are: the mechanisms that enable each subunit to operate independently. the formal division of the organiz
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is ''the mechanisms for coordinating subunits.''

Explanation:

Integration mechanisms are explicitly defined to coordinate subunits. In turn, are divided into structural and non-structural mechanisms. Structural integration mechanisms coordinate activities and are usually linked to specific management positions or bodies. The non-structural integration mechanisms, for their part, are characterized because they do not create organs or positions, but they constitute a relevant complement to the structural mechanisms, facilitating the organization of work. Informal integration mechanisms or those aimed at facilitating informal relationships are the simplest and easiest to use. Individuals face a certain situation and, spontaneously, communicate with each other. If no further coordination is required, informal mechanisms may be sufficient

Match each definition to the appropriate term. locus
liraira [26]
I) Locus- the chromosomal site where a specific gene is located. A locus is a fixed position on a chromosome, like the position of a gene or a marker. Each chromosome carries ,many genes; human's estimated haploid (n) protein coding genes are about 20,000, on the 23 different chromosomes.


ii) Interference; the observed double crossover frequency differs from the expected double crossover frequency. Cross over interference is used to refer to the non-random placement of crossovers with respect to each other during meiosis. It results in widely spaced crossovers along chromosomes. Interference may exert its effect across whole chromosomes. As chromosomes in many eukaryotes are large, interference must be able to act over megabase lengths of DNA. 

iii) Linkage- the tendency for genes located in close proximity on the same chromosome to be inherited together. Normally when two genes are close together on the same chromosome, they do not assort independently and are said to be linked. Whereas genes located on different chromosomes assort independently and have a recombination frequency of 50%, linked genes have a recombination frequency that is less than 50%.

iv) Recombination- the process by which a new pattern of alleles on a chromosome is generated. Genetic recombination is the production of offspring with combinations f traits that differ from those found in either parent. During meiosis in eukaryotes, genetic recombination involves the pairing of homologous chromosomes. This may be followed by information transfer between the chromosomes.
