Conversion disorder or Dissociative disorders is the condition in which physical symptoms appear as a defense against overwhelming anxiety, it is characterized by a series of symptoms that affect the motor or sensory functions, in absence of a neurological disorder or a medical illness that explains or justifies it. It is called conversion disorder because the person turns a psychological conflict into a physical disorder, usually begins in the late teenage years and in the first years of adulthood.

Bad White [126]

Answer:

A. transmission genetics

B. population genetics

C. molecular genetics

D. genomics

E. molecular genetics

Explanation:

Transmission genetics can be defined as the study of the mechanisms involved in the inheritance of genetic material by offspring from parents. This discipline started with the discovery of inherited characteristics in pea plants by Mendel (1865).

Population genetics is a subdiscipline of genetics that studies genetic variation within and between populations. Population genetics is an area that explains how allele and genotypic frequencies change across time, thereby this subdiscipline is closely linked to evolutionary biology.

Genomics is a broad area of genetics that studies the function, evolution, structure, function, mapping and comparison of genomes (i.e., the whole genetic material contained in each cell of a given organism). This discipline aims at understanding entire gene pools. Genomics includes different research areas including structural genomics, functional genomics, epigenomics and metagenomics.

Molecular genetics is a sub-discipline of genetics that studies the mechanisms involved in preserving the genetic material (i.e., DNA and RNA), and to understand how the structure and expression of the genetic material influence the observed variation among organisms.

What is a telomere? What happens to telomeres each time DNA is replicated? How do cells prevent this from occurring?
vredina [299]
Telomeres are protective sequences of nucleotides found at the ends of chromosomes,Which become shorter every time a cell divides.
A gradual degeneration of an organism occurs, resulting in ageing.
However, some cells are able to replenish their telomeres using the enzyme telomerase. 
Hope this helps! :)

Write one scientific question about the organism in the photo? With sunflowers
vodomira [7]
How did the sunflowers depict their rivalry in the image? Why should they fight it out?
The reason I've chosen this as a scientific topic is because the area is covered in sunflowers. With the conditions of their surroundings, living organisms attempt to live. As a result, there is rivalry among the organisms.
