The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

a. The woman with stretch marks has a greater collagen-to-elastic fiber ratio.

b. The woman may have different gender babies.

c. The woman with less stretch marks has larger skin cells.

d. The woman without stretch marks has more cholesterol in her diet, which affects her cell membranes.

Answer:

The woman with stretch marks has a greater collagen-to-elastic fiber ratio.

Explanation:

The stretch marks on the hips, stomach and breast of pregnant women is a very common problem. These stretch marks appear pinkish in color which is very difficult to treat.

These stretch marks are the result of the collagen to elastin ratio which increases and stretches. This stretching happens due to the sudden or rapid increase in the weight of the body or the affected portion.

Thus, the selected option is correct.

Where is amyglada located in a brain ? How does it function ?​
Sedbober [7]

Short Answer: The amygdala is located in the brain and its functions are related to emotional learning.

Explanation

The amygdala is a brain structure located in the temporal lobe of the brain. Its functions are related to the emotional system of the brain, and memory. In addition, the amygdala has been shown to influence the emotional learning process. The amygdala is mainly responsible for the formation and storage of memories associated with emotional events, so external sensory stimuli reach the basolateral group of the amygdala, where associations are formed with memories of the stimulus (mainly related to fear).
