In one study, 108 regions of the genome were identified to be significantly associated with schizophrenia. Below is a Manhattan

Answer: hello your question is incomplete attached below is the missing part of the complete question

The top of the highest peak corresponds to a region of the genome called the MHC locus. This means that of all the variants identified by this study, ____________.

the variant in MHC is observed the most frequently in the affected cohort.  

the variant in MHC can cause schizophrenia in a Mendelian fashion.

the variant in MHC is the least likely to be a false positive result.

the variant in MHC has the largest odds ratio.

answer:

i) 4

ii) the variant in MHC is the least likely to be a false positive result. ( C )

Explanation:

The number of regions of chromosome 6 with causative variants identified is 4

While the variant in MHC is the least likely to be a false positive result. this is because, it is the highest peak in of all the causative variants identified in this study (i.e. closely related to the disease)  and been the highest peak will make it least likely to return a false positive result.

The negative effects of tilling include _____. A increased soil erosion B reduced soil drainage C reduced need for energy input
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Tilling agitates the topsoil and removes ‘unnecessary’ vegetation so the main crop can grow without competition. Tilling improves soil aeration and drainage for plants to grow well.  Nonetheless, it can lead to other consequences such as soil erosion because it loosens the soil and makes it easy to be carried away by wind and water.
