He three types of seismic waves produced by an earthquake are primary, secondary, and
Westkost [7]
Seismic waves are waves produced by earthquakes. This occurs when rocks under the earth suddenly break or explode. There are two MAIN TYPES of seismic waves called body waves and surface waves.   <span>Body waves have the capacity to travel through the Earth's inner layers. They have a higher frequency and they are the ones that first occur under water at the onset of an earthquake. They can be subdivided into two types, the primary and secondary waves that arrive at seismic records one after another.

Surface waves can only traverse through the surface of the planet like ripples in the water. These waves can easily be detected on a seismogram result. These waves arrive after body waves and they are the ones mostly responsible for damages and destruction bought by earthquakes.</span>       <span> </span>

if a mutation occurs in the somatic tissue, approximately how many of the gametes will carry the mutation?
Mrac [35]

None: Only those mutations that occur in the germ line and result in gametes will have a chance of being passed on to progeny. An alteration in DNA that occurs after conception.

Somatic mutations can occur in any of the body's cells except germ cells (sperm and egg) and are therefore not passed on to children. These alterations can (but not always) cause cancer or other diseases. Mutations in somatic cells are called somatic mutations. Because they do not occur in the cells that give rise to gametes, the mutation is not transmitted to the next generation sexually. Human somatic cells have 46 chromosomes: 22 pairs and 2 sex chromosomes that may or may not form a pair. This is the 2n or diploid condition. Human gametes have 23 chromosomes, each of 23 unique chromosomes, one of which is a sex chromosome. Somatic cells are the cells in the body other than sperm and eggs (called germ cells). In humans, somatic cells are diploid, meaning they contain two sets of chromosomes, one inherited from each parent. Mutations in a somatic cell occur in somatic cells and are transmitted by mitosis, resulting in cancer. However, mutations in a gamete are passed on by meiosis, resulting in mutated offspring. A genetic mutation occurs during DNA replication, and chromosomal mutations occur during meiosis.

Which element of the scientific process includes the greatest amount of
Stels [109]

Answer:

A living being or organism is a complex set of organizational material, in which molecular communication systems intervene that relate it internally and with the environment in an exchange of matter and energy in an orderly manner, having the ability to perform the basic functions of life that are nutrition, relationship and reproduction, in such a way that living beings work by themselves without losing their structural level until their death.

Explanation:

The matter that composes living beings is formed in 95% by four elements (bioelements) that are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, from which biomolecules are formed: 3 4

Organic biomolecules or immediate principles: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids.

Inorganic biomolecules: water, mineral salts and gases.

These molecules are constantly repeated in all living beings, so the origin of life comes from a common ancestor, as it would be very unlikely that two living beings with the same organic molecules have independently appeared.5 6 Stromatolites have been found 3700 million years old, 7 so that life could have arisen on Earth 4100-3800 million years ago.1 8 9

All living things are made up of cells. Inside these are carried out the sequences of chemical reactions, catalyzed by enzymes, necessary for life.

The science that studies living things is biology.
