The answer is that the equatorial regions receive sun rays closest to the vertical (direct rays) because of their position relative to the equator where the tilting of the earth only mildly affects the climate. The climate along the equator changes very little through out the year and has summer like conditions for most of the year.

However the other regions may receive direct sun rays but for far more limited periods. In the months of July and August (summer months), the northern hemisphere is tilted towards the sun and receives the most direct rays. The opposite occurs in December and January when it is tilted away from the sun and thus winter sets in, whereas the southern hemisphere is at this time tilted toward the sun and receives the most direct sun rays.

Given our understanding of genetics, we can confirm that the gene in question is of the homeotic type.

In biology, we refer to a gene as the most basic unit of genetic information.
It is a segment of DNA that encodes for a certain trait that <u>may or may not be expressed.</u>
A gene carries the information for a specific trait, for example:

1) Eye color

2) Body organization

3) Height

<h3 /><h3 /><h3>What does it mean for a gene to be homeotic?</h3>

In the case of this question, the gene in question is a homeotic gene.
Homeotic genes are those that are in charge of the organization of the organism's body.
These genes control the <u>general pattern of the body</u>, such as where the arms and legs will be, and so on.

Therefore, given the definition of a homeotic gene, we can confirm that this is the type that best fits the description of the mutation in the question since it affected the formation and normal organization of the body.

Which angle in AABC has the largest measure?

igomit [66]

It is b) angle B.

The opposite angles of opposite sides are proportional to each other. So the smallest side’s opposite angle will be the smallest angle, and in this case, since the largest side is 12, the opposite angle, B, will be the largest angle.

Also, make sure to check to see if the question is the right subject, hope this helps
