Mutations can be categorized based on the kind of effect they have on an organism. Blue eyes in humans are a result of a mutatio

n in the OCA2 gene, which controls the production of pigment melanin in the iris. This mutation is an example of a mutation. Such mutations have effect on an organism’s survival.

Mutations can be categorized based on the kind of effect they have on an organism. Blue eyes in humans are a result of a mutation in the OCA2 gene, which controls the production of pigment melanin in the iris.

This mutation is an example of a neutral mutation. Such mutations have no effect on an organism’s survival.

Which of the following is NOT part of the peripheral nervous system?
Ksju [112]

The correct answer is: B. spinal cord  

The nervous system can be divided into two subdivisions: the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The spinal cord and the brain are part of the CNS, whereas the PNS consists of the nerves that radiate from the CNS to all parts of the body. The PNS includes all neurons that sense and transmit information to the CNS.

The CNS controls thinking processes, movements, and registers the sensations throughout our body. Moreover, the PNS acts to transmit information from the CNS to all parts of the body.

The PNS is in turn divided into two main parts:

1-The Autonomic nervous system (ANS), which regulates involuntary functions and glands. The parasympathetic nervous system is one division of the ANS that controls visceral organs such as glands.

2- Somatic nervous system (SNS), which regulates voluntary muscle movement and transmits information from eyes, ears, and skin to the CNS.

Drag each tile to the correct location on the chart. What are the pros and cons of sexual and asexual reproduction?
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Sexual reproduction:

Pros: leads to greater genetic variation.

Cons: requires more time and energy.

Asexual reproduction:

Pros: Does not require finding a mate.

Cons: Produce less genetic variation.

Explanation:

Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in higher organisms, in which new individuals are formed by combining genetic information from two different types (sexes) of individuals.

Advantage: Sexual reproduction leads to higher genetic variation due to recombination between genetic material of female and male gamete during meiosis.

Disadvantage: Sexual reproduction is a time and energy consuming process as it needs interaction between mates and organisms which are produced sexually require more time for development.

Asexual reproduction involves formation of new organisms from a single parent organism without gamete fusion.

Advantage: Asexual reproduction requires less time and energy as it does not require finding a mate.

Disadvantage: Asexual reproduction produces less genetic variations as it involves only parent organisms (no mixing of genetic information) and the only source of variations are random mutations.

3. Describe the benefits and drawbacks of experiments in a laboratory compared to experiments done in a
labwork [276]

Answer:

Benefits:

In  a lab, scientists can control the conditions according to their research and study. This allows them to focus on a single perspective.

On the other hand, in a natural setting there are complex interactions due to which focusing on a single attribute can be difficult.

Drawbacks:

Ina  laboratory experiment, we cannot control every variable which might be having an effect on our concerned subject as compared to a natural setting. This is because lab experiments are performed in a controlled experiment. Hence, there might be difference of results in a lab experiment and nature.
