Answer:

I think buffers prevents small amounts of acids and blood from coming and changing the pH of the body, because the buffers are barriers that do not let blood and acid pass through.

Hope it helps!

1. Nucleotides: A phosphate group, a 5-carbon sugar, and a nitrogenous base are the three components of a nucleotide. Adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine are the four nitrogenous bases in DNA. Instead of thymine, uracil is found in RNA. The genetic material of all known living creatures is made up of nucleotides in a chain.

2. Genes: A gene is a small segment of a lengthy DNA double helix molecule that consists of a linear base pair sequence. A gene is any portion of DNA that contains instructions that allow a cell to generate a specific product – usually a protein, such as an enzyme – that performs a single specified action.

3. A locus (plural loci) is a stable location on a chromosome where a certain gene or genetic marker can be found.

4. At a genomic region, an allele is one of two or more variations of DNA sequence (a single base or a segment of nucleotides).

5. Chromosomes are thread-like structures found within the nucleus of both animal and plant cells. Protein and a single molecule of deoxyribonucleic acid make up each chromosome (DNA). DNA is passed along from parents to children and carries the precise instructions that distinguish each living thing.

6. Karyotype: A karyotype is a individual's entire set of chromosomes. A laboratory-produced representation of a person's chromosomes extracted from an individual cell and arranged in numerical order is also known as a chromosomal map. A karyotype can be used to check for chromosomal number or structural problems.

8. Genotype: An organism's genotype is its genetic makeup. From embryonic development to adulthood, the genotype determines an individual's inherited potentials and limitations. In se×ually reproducing organisms, a person's genotype is made up of the whole set of genes acquired from both parents.

9. Phenotype: Physical traits are described by phenotypes. It encompasses both apparent (such as hair or eye color) and measured characteristics (like height or weight). Characteristics relevant to your development and behavior, such as personality traits, are also referred to as phenotypes.

American vultures used to be classified in the same family as African vultures. Which discovery caused scientists to reclassify

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

DNA evidence revealed the American vultures share more recent ancestor with the Storks

Explanation:

The hooded vultures that is mostly found in the African continent have a close resemblance with the American vultures and were traditionally classified to belong to the Falcon family.

However, it was observed that the American vultures shared a similar behavior with Stork which is not common to the vulture found in Africa, including the hooded vulture. The Stork and the American vulture exhibit the behavior of urinating on their legs when being overheated. When the urine gets evaporated, it helps them to cool their body temperature.

This shared behavior between the storks and the American vultures led scientists into using molecular analysis in analyzing the DNA of the hooded vultures found in Africa, the American vultures, and the stork.

Evidence from the DNA analysis later revealed that the American vultures and the storks share a more common DNA sequences than African vultures and American vultures do.

Damage to your somatic nervous system affects voluntary signaling. which muscles would be affected?

SSSSS [86.1K]

<span>The somatic nervous system is known as the voluntary nervous system, is a part of the peripheral nervous system. It consists of neurons that are associated with skeletal or striated muscle fibers. It affects voluntary signaling for many resion.
