Answer:

<em>Sensory neurons</em> detected the smell of muffins.

Explanation:

Sensory neurons can be described as a group of neurons which convert stimulus from the external environment of the organism into an electrical impulse. Sensory neurons are also known as afferent neurons. there are different types of sensory neurons to detect different types of environmental stimuli. The sensory neurons which are used for smelling are termed as olfactory sensory neurons. Hence, the sensory neurons helped Audrey to detect the smell of muffins.

What are some effects caused by chromosome 11 disorders?
Aloiza [94]
Mitosis results in two cells that are duplicates of the original cell. This kind of cell division occurs throughout the body, except in the reproductive organs. This is how most of the cells that make up the body are made and replaced.<span>Meiosis results in cells with half the number of chromosomes, 23 instead of the normal 46. These are the eggs and sperm. </span>

Most people experience increased infant mortalities at high altitudes. Explain how a mutation that allows normal levels of infan
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Most people experience increased infant mortalities at high altitudes due to the inability of the mother to provide sufficient oxygen to the developing fetus but now variation in the DNA sequence in the people that lives at higher altitudes like in Tibetans allow normal level of infant survival at high altitudes.

This variation occurred in the EPAS1 gene in the Tibetan population that is responsible for delivering oxygen more efficiently to the fetus. This nucleotide variation is also present in low landers of Beijing but natural selection selected the variant gene in Tibetan people because they require this mutated gene for their survival.  

So the population passed this variant gene in next-generation, therefore, inheritance allowed the spreading of the mutated gene to the next generation therefore by natural selection and inheritance a mutated gene spread through a human population that had just begun living high in the mountains.
