Answer:

Nuclear DNA :

The nuclear DNA can be inherits from the parents. The DNA is circular in shape. This DNA consists of around 20,000 genes. These are generally diploid and paired in present in the organism.

Mitochondrial DNA:

Mitochondrial DNA is also inherited but from the mother only. The DNA is linear in shape. This DNA also consists of genes but less in number as compared with nuclear DNA. These are generally haploid and non paired present in the organism.

The mitochondrial gene is used in the criminal investigation as it contains the inherited material of mother only.

Binocular vision, the ability to focus both eyes on the same object at the same time, usually does not develop until ?
vekshin1

Binocular vision, the ability to focus both eyes on the same object at the same time, usually does not develop until  4-5 months of age.

Binocular vision is the type of vision in which both the eyes look in the same direction to form a 3-D image of the object. One single image is formed by both the eyes. When any disorder appears regarding the binocular vision, the core reason is the misalignment of both the eyes.

Eyes are the organs of vision. They are present in a pair embedded in a socket like region on the skeleton below the forehead. The image is formed at the retina of the eye. The image formed is an upside down image.

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

In the case of cardiovascular diseases, the main causes are sedentary lifestyle, stress, nutrition (consumption of junk food and low consumption of high-fiber foods), diabetes, high blood pressure, overweight. In the case of poor nutrition, it happens that the increase in cholesterol that we call "bad" LDL occurs and the "good" HDL cholesterol that is protective and sweeps the bad that covers the blood vessels is not increased. Taking into account diabetes, the excess glucose produced in the body, glycosylates the LDL particle, which also obstructs the passage of blood flow through the vessels.
