What is the corpus callosum, and what happens to a person after having surgery to sever it?

Biology
1 answer:
ziro4ka [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The corpus callosum corresponds to a leaf-shaped structure, being a group of nerve fibers that join both hemispheres of the brain (right and left). This structure is formed by axons covered with myelin, which make up the white substance. The functions of the corpus callosum are: transmission of information to both hemispheres, participation in vision (in eye movement), learning, information processing. When performing surgery on the corpus callosum, syneresis, comprehension disorders may occur

This procedure can be used for epilepsy.

Which of the following is an example of reproductive isolation? two populations of finches that cannot produce viable offspring
OverLord2011 [107]

The correct answer is A. Two populations of finches that cannot produce viable offspring

Explanation:

Reproductive isolation is a biological and evolutionary phenomenon that prevents two species from successfully reproducing, this means they cannot produce offspring or the offspring is not fertile, even if these species had a common ancestor. Additionally, as a result of reproductive isolation, each species keeps its genes and features. This phenomenon is best exemplified in "Two populations of finches that cannot produce viable offspring " because this refer to the barriers for different species to reproduce or produce viable offspring, which is the focus of reproductive isolation.

in pea plants round seeds are dominant and wrinkled seeds are recessive. the cross rr x rr, what percentage of the offspring wil
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

0%

Explanation:

Round = Dominant

Wrinkled = recessive

Recessive = r

Dominant = R

homozygous dominant = RR

homozygous recessive = rr

Heterozygous= Rr

Since both seeds are homozygous recessive (rr)

In your punnet square, one lower case r will go on the top and the left side

r r

r

r

Something like that.

Go across your four boxes and you will end up with;

rr, rr

rr, rr

In order for it to be round, at least one box would need to have to be a heterozygous(Rr) or be a homozygous dominant.

A forest has two groups of plants that appear to be very similar both phenotypically and genotypically. The major difference is
Andru [333]
<span>In order to know whether the plants are members of one population with great diversity or actually members of the same species we can attempt to find out whether they reproduce or not. That's one of the main aspects of two organisms of the same species - fertility.

We could start by setting up some kind of artificial environment where both plants would pollenise at the same time, or we could also collect the pollens from both plants and store it to use them in a different time of the year than that of their production. 

After having the pollens available from both plants we could fertilise a group of both plants with each other's pollens (the actual object of study), and also fertilise a group of both plants with their own pollens (so we can have a control for the quality of the pollens and the plants - in this group it is expected to have offspring, if there isn't we cannot take into account any other results).

After the fertilisation, we should now count the offspring. If there is offspring resulting from the crossed plants, they are probably of the same species. We could also compare these plants with the offspring of the normal crossing to check whether there were major differences (such as health issues, or offspring number) that would lead to conclude that still there wasn't compatibility. 

By creating a hybrid between this two groups, even if they are from the same species, we may have to take also into account that they may have different required conditions than their parent plants.

</span>The study should be repeated a few times or the number of plants involved should be large enough to be statistically relevant.

What is the macromolecule that builds both cilia and flagella?
Mrac [35]
<span>Cilia, flagella, and centrioles. Cilia and flagella are projections from the outside of the cell. They are made up of microtubules and are covered by an extension of the plasma membrane. They are motile, meaning that they are mobile, and designed either to move the cell itself or to move substances over or around the cell.</span>
