Why do you take the DNA out of a somatic cell instead of taking it out of a sex cell?
yanalaym [24]

Mitosis occurs in somatic cells; this means that it takes place in all types of cells that are not involved in the production of gametes. Prior to each mitotic division, a copy of every chromosome is created; thus, following division, a complete set of chromosomes is found in the nucleus of each new cell. Indeed, apart from random mutations, each successive duplicate cell will have the same genetic composition as its parent, due to the inheritance of the same chromosome set and similar biological environment. This works well for replacing damaged tissue or for growth and expansion from an embryonic state.


Because the genes contained in the duplicate chromosomes are transferred to each successive cellular generation, all mitotic progeny are genetically similar. However, there are exceptions. For example, there are genetic variations that arise in clonal species, such as bacteria, due to spontaneous mutations during mitotic division.

Cognitive psychologist draw heavily on research
Alchen [17]

Answer:

Research of B. F. Skinner

Explanation:

Burrhus Frederic Skinner was born on March 20, 1904, and died on August 18, 1990. Skinner considered that human actions were consequences of actions done in the recent or distant past. He thought that free will was just an illusion and that we are guided by our past actions. If the actions had good outcomes we are encouraged to do them again, and if not, we are more likely to not do the same actions again.

What leads to Douglass’ final decision regarding whether or not to escape? (THE NARRATIVE OF THE LIFE OF FREDERICK DOUGLASS: EXC
vampirchik [111]

B. After a failed attempt to escape in 1836, Douglass was jailed. His master sent him to Baltimore and he was hired out to work in the shipyards. While Douglass was working in Baltimore, he fell in love with a free woman which is what motivated his 2nd and successful escape attempt. Douglass escaped under the guise of being a sailor. He borrowed another sailor’s protection pass, which could be presented in lieu of “free papers” and used it to board a train bound for New York. He met up with his wife-to-be, Anna Murray, and they were married two weeks later on Sept 15, 1838.
