A(n)\ is an area of the planet that shaves similar conditions of climate, fauna (animal life), flora (plant life) and geography
zheka24 [161]

Answer: A BIOME is an area of the planet that shaves similar conditions of climate, fauna (animal life), flora (plant life) and geography . The correct option is 1.

Explanation:

BIOME is defined as large natural terrestrial ecosystems which shares similar conditions of climate and consists of plants and animals that equally have common characteristics with their environment. The word terrestrial is used because plants form the bulk of the community in an ecosystem. The type of vegetation in a biome is largely determined by climatic factors, especially rainfall and temperature. Regions throughout the world which have similar climates have similar biomes. This causes zones of different biomes to occur from the equator to the Arctic and to the Antarctic. For example,

--> in equatorial and tropical areas where temperature is high all the year round tropical forests occur;

--> in temperate regions coniferous and deciduous forests occur;

--> while treeless plains (tundra) are found in the cold arctic regions.

Climates also changes with height above the sea level.

Of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in any normal human cell, the first ____ pairs provide directions for an individual's body and br
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Of the 23 pairs of chromosomes in any normal human cell, the first 22 pairs provide directions for an individual's body and brain development. Scientists now estimate that about half of a person's personality traits and cognitive abilities can be traced to genetic influence and that psychological disorders arise from the interactions of many genes.

Explanation:

Chromosomes are small molecules that have the ability to carry all the genetic information needed to form a living being. These chromosomes are donated by an individual's parents and are used to form 23 pairs that determine all the internal and external characteristics of an organism. Among these 23 pairs, one pair will be responsible for determining the individual's gender, and the other 22 pairs will be responsible for the instructions that will make up the entire body and brain of the individual. Many scientists believe that chromosomes are responsible for even a part of a person's personality traits and that the genes they carry are directly related to the existence of psychological disorders.

Female bodybuilders and women with eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa commonly experience amenorrhea. what does this fact
Lena [83]

  This suggests that a certain amount of body fat is necessary for menstrual cycles to occur. The nervous system appears to respond to circulating levels of the adipose tissue hormone leptin; when leptin levels fall below a certain set point, menstruation ceases. Because a woman lacking adequate fat reserves might not be able to have a successful pregnancy, the body prevents pregnancy by shutting down the ovarian cycle, and thus the menstrual cycle. Once sufficient energy reserves become available, the cycles begin again.
