6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Normal DMD gene provides the instructions to make normal dystrophin protein.  

® Normal dystrophin in muscle cells  ® Normal muscles and  normal health  

Mutated DMD gene does not provide the instructions to make functional dystrophin.  

®  

No functional dystrophin  in muscle cells  

®  

Muscle cells break down, so  child loses the ability to walk, develops heart problems, and typically dies as a young adult.

Margarita [4]
Many cells working together forms a tissue.  Many tissues working together forms organs. Many organs working together forms organ systems.  So it goes from general to most specific.  Organ systems are needed in order for life.  This proves that cells are the most basic units of life.

Use the information below to answer the following question(s). In a survey, the rate of heavy smokers was reported as 270 per 10
Eddi Din [679]

The probability that neither of them is a heavy smoker is 0.53 or 53%

<h3>What is genetic probability?</h3>

Probability serves to mathematically estimate the possibility of events that happen by chance, that is, as a matter of luck.

In this case:

Probability that selected one is heavy smoker is:

p=270/1000=0.27

Number of individuals selected  is 2 and We know that:

P(X=x)=nc_x(1-p)^{n-x}(p)^x

We need to prove that X=0:

P(X=0)=nc_0(1-0.27)^{2-0}(0.27)^0

P=0.5329

motikmotik

Answer:

The correct option is D. analogous

Explanation:

We speak of an analogy when one structure is similar to another or has the same function, but whose embryonic development and its origin or ancestor is not common, they are different, in other words, they are analogous structures if they fulfill functions or acquire similar characteristics starting from the same medium, without requiring them to have the same evolutionary origin (they may or may not be similar structurally and embryologically).
