Smoking during pregnancy affects your and your baby's health before, during, and after your baby is born. The nicotine (the addictive substance in cigarettes), carbon monoxide, lead, arsenic, and numerous other poisons you inhale from a cigarette are carried through your bloodstream and go directly to your baby. Smoking while pregnant will:

<span>Lower the amount of oxygen available to you and your growing babyIncrease your baby's heart rate<span>Increase the chances of miscarriage and stillbirth</span>Increase the risk that your baby is born prematurely and/or born with low birth weightIncrease your baby's risk of developing respiratory problems</span>

The more cigarettes you smoke per day, the greater your baby's chances of developing these and other health problems. There is no "safe" level of smoking for your baby's health.

Yes,very much, it affects the baby alot. mostly when it is born.

When the baby is born, it would have a low weight at birth, and the size wont be normal either.

They could be born with lung problems , and even heart defects.

According to the food chain below, which of these organisms most likely contains the least concentration of toxins (DDT) ?
agasfer [191]

Answer:

Hawk

Explanation:

Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethan which is also known as DDT is a colorless, tasteless and almost odorless crystalline chemical compound. It was originally developed as an insecticide and it causes harm to wildlife animals.

When the chemical are sprayed or gets in contact with the soil it is the terrestrial organisms such as plants and primary consumers who gets affected the most due to direct contact with the chemical.

Animals such as hawks who are arboreal and tertiary consumers from the list of options don’t get affected directly from the source of the DDT contamination which makes them least affected.

If the DNA sequence TTCACG is transcribed to AAGGC, what type of mutation has occurred?
SashulF [63]
Insertion

Genetic stability maintenance  requires an extremely accurate mechanism for DNA replication and mechanisms for fixing the several accidental lesions that occur continually in DNA.  Spontaneous changes in DNA are temporary due to immediate correction process called DNA repair. DNA repair’s importance is very evident from the huge investment that cells form in DNA repair enzymes. In 1000 accidental base changes in DNA , fewer than one results in a permanent mutation due to the efficient elimination by the DNA repair.<span> </span>

What major structure brings oxygen and nutrients to the cells and carries away waste?
liubo4ka [24]
<span>The major structure that supplies the cells with nutrients and removes their waste is the circulatory system. The circulatory system is composed of the heart, the blood vessels going from and back to the heart, and the blood that travels inside them. The blood vessels that carry nutrient and oxygen-rich blood to the cells are arteries. They become the thinner arterioles, and then the thinnest capillaries. With the exception of the pulmonary arteries, which carry non-oxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs, all arteries carry oxygenated blood. The capillaries disburse the nutrients and oxygen to the cells and pick up wastes and carbon dioxide, form into the thicker venules, then to form veins, which lead back to the heart (with the exception of the pulmonary veins, which carry oxygenated blood from the lungs to the heart). Veins also differ from arteries in that veins have valves to prevent blood from flowing backward.</span>
