A  multiple sclerosis

B  hemophilia

C  sickle cell anemia

D  cancer

Cancer is a type of disease that results from uncontrolled growth of cancer, malignant or tumor cells within the body.

Water is essential for the growth of crop plants. But excessive supply of water should be avoided. Give reason.
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

Soil can become waterlogged. The water can cut off the air supply to the roots and to the organisms that live in the soil. If the roots do not receive enough oxygen, the plants will die because they rely on oxygen to complete photosynthesis.

Stels [109]

EXPLANATION:

There are 2 types of nucleic acids: DNA(deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA(ribonucleic acid).

Living organisms have their genetic material in their DNA. Viruses use RNA as their genetic material but are usually called non-living things( because they can't reproduce without help from a host).

The function of nucleic acids has a progression from DNA to RNA to proteins. This is called the central dogma of molecular biology.

Nucleic acids are formed by a linkage of polynucleotide chains with phosphodiester bonds. These polynucleotide chains are formed from monomers called NUCLEOTIDES.

A nucleotide is made up of 3 parts:

i) a nitrogenous base

ii) a five-carbon sugar

iii) at least one phosphate group.

Imagine a population of rabbits with fur color that ranges from black to white. If this population were put in an area that has
Molodets [167]

The correct answer is option (C) Gray rabbits would be eliminated by predators.

Camouflage is an adaptation by organisms allowing them to blend with the environment. This helps them in surviving or escaping from their predators. It can be throught coloration or developing a particular pattern or mimicry.

The example given above is a type of camouflage through concealing coloration. Concealing coloration includes having a fixed camouflage and changing the camouflage depending on the environment. Grey rabbits cannot exhibit camouflage as the backgroud is dark rocks and light stones. As a result, these rabbits are clearly visible to the predators and get elimiated by them.

Lana71 [14]
<h2>Primates </h2>

Explanation:

Primates are a group of animals has flexible hands and feet, large brains in relation to body size, forward-looking eyes, and arms that can rotate in a circle around the shoulder joint

  • Primates include the lemurs,lorises,monkeys,apes and humans
  • The order Primates, with its 300 or more species, is the third most diverse order of mammals, after rodents and bats
  • The Primates order is divided informally into three main groups: prosimians, monkeys of the New World, and monkeys and apes of the Old World
  • All primates have five fingers (pentadactyly), a generalized dental pattern, and a primitive body plan
  • Another distinguishing feature of primates is fingernails
  • Opposing thumbs are also a characteristic primate feature
  • When compared with body weight, the primate brain is larger than that of other terrestrial mammals, and it has a fissure unique to primates that separates the first and second visual areas on each side of the brain
  • The eyes face forward in all primates so that the eyes visual fields overlap
  • Fossils of the earliest primates date to the Early Eocene Epoch (56 million to 40 million years ago) or perhaps to the Late Paleocene Epoch (59 million to 56 million years ago)
