6 0

The correct answer is: 2.5%

The vast majority of the human genome (97.5%) is comprised of non-coding DNA with different functions. Non-coding DNA includes telomeres, introns, non-coding RNA genes and gene regulatory sequences.

• Telomeres-ends of DNA with protective role (prevents shortening of DNA),

• Non-coding RNA genes-e.g. genes for tRNA,

• Gene regulatory sequences such as promoter, enhancers and silencers.

25. A student measures the distance from a bridge
kkurt [141]

Answer:

(4) As time increased, distance remained

the same

Explanation:

The graph shows that the student measures equal distance everyday from the bridge to the rock for 7 days.

Everyday has an equal distance measured by the student all through the week.

Let's say the point on the vertical axis which represents distance measured is about 1.5 meters. It means that, for day 1, he measures 1.5 meters, day 2, he measured 1.5 meters, by day 3 another 1.5 meters. Same he does for 7 days. For the first 3 days, he would have measured 1.5 m × 3 = 4.5 meters.

This means that, as time (days) increased, distance measured each day remains the same.

The ICD-10-CM that should be reported is the O10.013. This is for pregnancies with pre-existing hypertension complicating the pregnancy in the third trimester. Since the patient is predisposed to pre-eclampsia from previous pregnancy and she is in her third trimester, the code to be used is O10.013.

Answer: The taproot

Explanation: A deep taproot helps plants use moisture held in deeper soil layers, and they can have great drought resistance compared to fibrous-rooted plants. An example is honey mesquite (Prosopis juliflora), which is known to send its roots down 150 feet to get water.

You are an ecologist collecting data about the declining growth rate of the critically endangered Philippine eagle. The eagles’
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

<em>The correct option is D) immigration</em>

Explanation:

Immigration can be described as the movement of an organism to another place for living. As the scenario in the question tells, the population of the endangered Philippine eagle could be seen only in one place hence we can say that the immigration rate of these organisms was zero because they could not be seen in any other place.

Other option, like option B, cannot be correct because mortality refers to the death rate and obviously many organisms of the species died due to which it became endangered.
