kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

B. Puerperium, or fourth trimester of pregnancy

Explanation:

  • Puerperium or the fourth trimester of pregnancy is also known as the postpartum period.
  • This period starts immediately after the mother gives birth to a child.
  • During this period the size of the uterus and other reproductive organs along with the hormone levels return to their normal state.
  • It is the phase where regression of all the anatomical and physiological changes that took place i in the reproductive organs of the females takes place.
  • This phase is divided int three periods -

1. Immediate puerperium, or the first 24 hours after parturition

2. Early puerperium, which extends until the first week postpartum;

3. Remote puerperium, which includes the period required for involution of the genital organs and return of menses, usually approximately 6 weeks.

  • This phase is highly critical for the mother as this requires rest and proper care as there are risks of bleeding. Therefore, the midwife or the nurse must take proper care of the mother.

The idea that, when life originated on earth, a macromolecule other than dna served the role of information storage and that thi
svet-max [94.6K]

The RNA world hypothesis states that the earlier life-forms had relied only on RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) for the purpose of catalyzing the chemical reactions, and storing the genetic information. This hypothesis was proposed by Leslie Orgel, Carl Woese, and Francis Crick.

This hypothesis states that long before the living forms evolved to use DNA as the genetic storage material, the RNA molecules served the purpose of both storing the genetic information and carrying out catalysis, but because of its instability, DNA evolved.

Hence, the answer is RNA world hypothesis.
