Arteriosclerosis is a general term for the hardening of arteries and a loss of elasticity in arterial walls. Atherosclerosis is specifically a condition where arteries harden as a result of plaque buildup on artery walls. Both conditions result in poor and inefficient blood flow through arteries, which can lead to blood clots or ruptures in the blood vessels of the heart or brain. Blockages in the heart can result in heart attacks; blockages and ruptures in the brain lead to strokes.

Anestetic [448]

The following phenotypic classes reflect offspring that were generated as a result of a crossover event

  • wild type
  • miniature wings
  • garnet eyes

Explanation:

When the miniature wings and garnet eyes links up with the 8 map unit that are present between them. After that the presence of two recombinant classes must complement together and make 8% of total i.e. they contribute 4% each. together the parental classes make up to 92% by contributing 46% one.

This can be understood through a phenotypic ratio calculation, which can be expected from it.

wild type: 4% x 800 = 32

miniature wings: 46% x 800 = 368

garnet eyes: 46% x 800 = 368

miniature wings, garnet eyes: 4% x 800 = 368

</span>Climate is best described as </span>C. THE LONG-TERM AVERAGE OF WEATHER VARIATIONS IN A SPECIFIC AREA.

The long term average being 30 years. These weather variations are affected by the temperature, precipitation, and wind.

Climate determinants include latitude, altitude, proximity to mountains and oceans, proportion of land to water, thermohaline circulation of the ocean, ocean currents, density and type of vegetation present in an area, as well as the areas' water retention and rainfall.
