The nurse should withhold anticonvulsant medications for 24 to 48 hours before the test.

EEG  is electroencephalogram, a test that detects electrical activity in the brain via electrodes attached to the scalp. Brain activity is represented as wavy lines on an EEG recording.

EEG is safe and painless. On the day of test, anything with caffeine should be avoided because it can affect the test results.

Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

Option 1, No. The highest frequency of heterozygotes under Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is 0.5

Explanation:

As per Hardy Weinberg’s equilibrium principle, the maximum frequency of heterozytotic individuals occur only when half of the population is dominant and recessive homozygous.  

In other way when the sum of frequency of dominant and recessive species is equal to 0.5, only then the frequency of heterozygotes is maximum which in any case would not be higher than 0.5.  

Hence, option 1 is correct

What does the light reaction need to occur and what does it produce
SpyIntel [72]
"Light reactions need light to produce organic energy molecules. They are initiated by colored pigments, mainly green colored chlorophylls. Dark reactions make use of these organic energy molecules. This reaction cycle is also called Calvin Benison Cycle, and it occurs in the stroma."

A gene involved in neural development shows three times as many synonymous site substitutions than nonsynonymous ones. A likely
viva [34]

Answer:

e. is under purifying selection

Explanation:

Purifying selection removes deleterious alleles that can arise through

random mutations

.

Mutations  may or may not have consequences at the level of genetic expression depending on whether those mutations are synonymous or nonsynonymous. Synonymous mutations do not generate changes in the protein to be encoded while non-synonymous ones do.

Important genes for the development of the organism - such as those involved in the  neural development- are very likely to be under purifying selection, eliminating individuals with deleterious alleles since those alleles (product of non-synonymous substitutions) do not allow the individuals to survive.
