The gene that controls production of white blood cells.
Explanation:Gene expression within the body is controlled by the cells, which determine when a specific gene should or should not be expressed. Influenza (the flu) is caused by a virus that attacks the respiratory system
Answer:
16. Directional Selection
17. Disruptive Selection
18. Stabilizing Selection
19. Natural Selection
20. Adaptation
Explanation:
In population genetics, directional selection/positive selection is a mode of natural selection in which an extreme phenotype is favored over other phenotypes.
Disruptive Selection would show phenotypes (individuals with groups of traits) of both extremes but have very few individuals in the middle.
Stabilizing Selection. Occurs when individuals at the extremes of the range of characteristic are selected against. This means that the "average" individuals are selected for.
It would in fact be lethal. The main function of the digestive system is just that, to digest food. Both intestines play an important part in the digestive system( to digest and absorb all nutrients possible from stomach contents) The function of the large intestine is to absorb water, left over nutrients from the small intestine and, electrolytes. It would be equally if not more deadly if the small intestine couldn’t absorb nutrients. Since the small I intestine also plays an important role with providing the body with nutrients and other vital materials it would be deadly if you could not absorb anything. You would go into a state of malnutrition and would need to be treated immediately.
Answer:
Cyanobacteria were photosynthetic and slowly changed the earth's atmosphere from CO2 rich to O2 rich. Photosynthetic cyanobacteria evolved by 3.5 billion years ago and greatly modified earth's atmosphere.
