Answer:

Option-D

Explanation:

Captive breeding or breeding in the captivity is the conservation technique employed by the government to conserve nature.

Captivity breeding is also known as the captive propagation of animals in which animals are kept either in their natural habitat (ex-situ conservation) or in artificial conditions like in zoos where condition similar to the habitat of animal are created.

The breeding programme aims at conserving the natural habitat of the animals to prevent the endangered species from extinction. The endangered species are at risk of extinction due to loss of fragmentation, pollution, predation and others.

Thus, Option-d is the correct answer.

Answer:

Viruses can be used to insert genetic material into cells during gene therapy

Explanation:

Gene therapy is a process used to introduce genetic material into cells to compensate for abnormal genes or to make a beneficial protein. If a mutated gene causes a necessary protein to be faulty or missing, gene therapy may be able to introduce a normal copy of the gene to restore the function of the protein.

A gene that is inserted directly into a cell usually does not function. Instead, a carrier called a vector is genetically engineered to deliver the gene. Certain viruses are often used as vectors because they can deliver the new gene by infecting the cell. The viruses are modified so they can't cause disease when used in people.

Explain why a message moving along nerve pathways takes time.
TiliK225 [7]
The conduction of nerve impulses relies upon the movement of positively-charged ions across the nerve cell membrane. The entry of sodium into the cell produces a wave of positive charge that travels down the length of an axon. Then chemicals called neurotransmitters are secreted out of the end of the axon onto the next nerve in the series (the postsynpatic nerve). This narrow space in between neurons is called the synapse. These neurotransmiiters released by the presynaptic nerve bind to receptors on the postsynaptic nerve. The binding of these receptors opens up channels in this second nerve's membrane that allow sodium ions to enter the nerve cell and initiate another wave of positive charge, and so on... The nerve signal can only move as fast as these ions and neurotransmitters can diffuse to generate this process. 

<span>As a professional athlete repeats a given activity many times over, the nerve cells "upregulate" their receptors, meaning that they produce additional receptors to put in the membrane. This is just a natural reaction to the nerve being repeatedly stimulated in the same way over and over. When neurotransmitter is secreted from the presynaptic neuron, there are more receptors on the postsynaptic neuron for it to bind, more channels open up, more ions enter in a shorter time and build up positive charge to create the impulse faster, and so the overall effect is faster. </span>

<span>Additionally, there are sheaths of fatty tissue (called myelin) that insulate the charge in the neuron and allow it to be conducted faster. As people age, these sheaths can start to degrade, making the nerve cell more "leaky" and causing the impulse to be conducted more slowly. </span>

If there are two weights on the scale, one 1.5m from the fulcrum weighing 1.7 kg, and the second 1.2m from the fulcrum, what mus
kykrilka [37]

The fulcrum is the point in any mechanical device where the moment due to weights is zero.

(Weight 1 x distance 1) - (weight 2 x distance 2) = 0

(1.7 Kg x 1.5 m ) - (weight 2 x 1.2 m) = 0

weight 2 = (1.7 Kg x 1.5 m ) / 1.2 m

= 2.1 Kg
