The correct answer should be <span>d. hypertrophic obesity</span>
However, a more correct answer would be a combination of C and D because the hypertrophic type is when obesity occurs due to an increase in the size while hyperplastic is when their number increases. Since it's only mentioned here as hyperplasia, only hypertrophic should be the answer.

Answer:

Option B and D

Explanation:

In case of hyper cellular obesity, the total number of fat cell increases and is mainly found in people whose BMI <40 kg/m2. This mainly occurs in people who gain weight during early childhood or adolescent age and thus it is highly variable as compared to any other obesity type.

While in case of hypertrophic obesity, the size of existing fat cell increases.  

Hence, both option B and D would be the correct answer

Imagine a scenario where Barr bodies are not due to random inactivation, but rather, the silencing is due to paternal imprinting
artcher [175]

Answer:

<h2>If Barr bodies are not due to random inactivation, but rather, the silencing is due to paternal imprinting  then the frequency of men and women differs. </h2>

Explanation:

Red-green color  blindness: color blindness is an X-linked recessive disorder. The male having this disease will transmit his X chromosome (with the mutation) to his daughter, who will then be a carrier of the disease.  

If Barr bodies are not due to random inactivation, but rather, the silencing is due to paternal imprinting  then the frequency of men and women differs.

Male inherit its X chromosome only from mother and no X chromosome from father, having one Y chromosome but female receive one X chromosome from father and one from mother, having no Y chromosome, So if the paternal allele is silenced then the males are no affected.

Which organisms appeared on earth first
STatiana [176]

The organisms which appeared on earth first was bacteria.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The first-ever living organism on Earth was a bacteria known as cyanobacteria. It is believed by scientists that it first formed around 3 billion years ago.
  • When the Earth was first formed, it was inhospitable for a long time until 3.8 billion years ago approximately, the core cooled down and the level of oxygen had risen. This, along with photosynthesis resulted in the formation of Cyanobacteria.
  • These organisms were capable of carrying out the process of photosynthesis by which they prepared their food. These were known as common ancestors. All the living organisms thereafter are known to be their descendants.
