Answer:

Fossils are usually named based on the following conditions-

  • the location in which they are found
  • named after the scientist who discovers it
  • the rock formation in which they are found
  • They are given two names, the genus and the species

These fossils are again categorized into different groups depending on the similarity in terms of form.

These names of the fossils are important to the comparative anatomists because it helps them in doing the comparative study and understand the causes of similarities and dissimilarities in terms of anatomy and also helps in understanding the evolutionary process of these organisms. For example, the fossil named 'Ida' is the primitive fossil that was found to be almost completely preserved. This fossil helped in comparative studies with other fossil species in a number of ways.

During exercise, epinephrine and norepinephrine are released from the adrenal medulla. Epinephrine and norepinephrine have the s
matrenka [14]

Answer and explanation:

Epinephrine and norepinephrine are two hormones that are released from the adrenal medulla when the body is under stress (like during exercise, for example) as a part of the sympathetic response.

These hormones have many functions and they all work together to prepare the individual for a fight or flight response -<em> like increasing heart rate and producing bronchodilatation</em>. One of these functions is the rise of glucose levels in blood which is important for this substance to reach several tissues, like the skeletal muscle. The skeletal muscle will make use of this glucose to produce ATP and generate the required energy for muscle contraction through a process called glycolysis, which is key for the fight or flight response mentioned above.

When we exercise, glucose levels rise thanks to these hormones so the skeletal muscle can have enough energy to contract and move as we want. If the exercise is too intense or prolongued, glucose levels will drop and other fuels will be needed to sustain this activity, like stored glycogen and fat.

Explain how nondisjunction can lead to aneuploidies
nirvana33 [79]
In nondisjunction, if members of a pair of homologous chromosomes do not move apart during meiosis I or sister chromatids fail to separate during meiosis II, this means one gamete receives 2 of the same kind of chromosome and i<span>f either one of these abnormal gametes unites with a normal one at fertilization, the zygote will also have an abnormal number of particular chromosomes; which is known as an aneuploidy.</span>
