Answer: Oxygen Isotopes!
Explanation: I just took the quiz and I got it correct!
The building blocks of proteins are known as amino acids. These acids are not only the building blocks of proteins--they are also important in many other chemical and biological processes.
Answer: Crossing-over allows the genes that come from each parent to recombine before they are passed on to future generations because chromatids of homologous chromosomes mate and exchange sections of their DNA.
Explanation:
Chromosome crossing-over is the process by which chromatids of homologous chromosomes mate and exchange sections of their DNA during prophase I of meiosis, when pairs of homologous chromosomes, or of the same type, are aligned. The chromatids of the homologous chromosomes break off in the chiasmas and rejoin to allow recombination of the linked genes. So it occurs when regions at chromosome breaks mate and then reconnect to the other chromosome. <u>The result of this process is an exchange of genes, called genetic recombination</u>.
This allows the genes that come from each parent to recombine before they are passed on to future generations. Then, <u>it is an important source of genetic variability</u>, since it involves an exchange of segments between homologous chromosomes during the development of gametes. <u>This process allows that the descendants of an individual are genetically very different</u>, since it is very unlikely that an individual produces two equal gametes, because all of them have different segments of the homologous chromosomes.
Answer: Outer hair cell
Explanation:
The hair cell is located in the brain and its responsible for amplification of sound. The hair cell length changes in response to stimulus. For amplification a low input is needed and the surrounding frequency must be close to basila membrane located in the inner hair cell. They can amplify low sound using their hair bubbles. The outer hair cell increase hearing sensitivity and a damage to it brings about low sensitivity.
Also, outer hair cell do not regenerate itself and a damage to it means a permanent damage.
