Answer

          The correct option is C.

Reason

           The gentic code of mule is different from the parents due to sexual reproduction. As  mule is the offspring of a male donkey (jack) and a female horse (mare).  

Chromosome number

                  The diploid number of chromosome in horse is 64 while its reproductive cell contain haploid number of chromosome that is 32. Similarly the diploid number of chromosome in donkey is 62 and its reproductive cells contain haploid chromosome that is 31.

Sexual reproduction

                       During sexual reproduction when male donkey is crossed with female donkey a mule is formed having diploid number of 63 chromosome which is completely different from the genome of their parents.

Abnormally slow depolarization of the ventricles would most change the shape of the ________ in an ECG tracing. Group of answer
NeTakaya

Abnormally slow depolarization of the ventricles would most change the shape of the QRS complex in an ECG tracing.

  • The conduction system in the ventricles depolarizes, and this depolarization spreads along the walls of the ventricles to produce the QRS complex.
  • It represents electrical activity that occurs before the ventricles contract (ventricular systole). The QRS complex appears immediately after the onset of ventricular systole.
  • An aberrant depolarization of the ventricles results in the formation of an abnormal QRS complex.
  • The SA node, an ectopic pacemaker in the atria, AV junction, bundle branches, Purkinje network, or the ventricular myocardium are all possible pacemaker sites in these aberrant QRS complexes.
  • An aberrant QRS complex might have any shape, from normal to wide and odd to slurred and notched.

#2.  Running a mineral across a porcelain plate to see the color it leaves behind on the plate may be described as testing for D) streak.

#3. D. Carbonization preserves soft tissues of plants or animals as a thin carbon film, usually in fine-grained shale sediments.

#5. Nicolaus Copernicus was a Polish astronomer who is best known for the theory that the sun is near the center of the universe and that the earth and other planets revolve around it. Copernicus did not believe that the planets were influenced by or revolved due to the sun; instead he believed that the sun was located near the center of the universe and that it was this center which influenced those bodies and caused them to revolve. When this theory was first published, the scientific community did not accept it. Which reason BEST explains the reason for rejection of this theory?

C) It lacked sufficient evidence and explanation.

Hope I helped!!
