7 0

Answer:

The correct option is: <u>e. Germline gene therapy</u>

Explanation:

The <u>germline gene therapy</u>, GGT is the <u>modification of the germ cells</u>. In this therapy, a functional gene is introduced into the genomes of the gametes. Such a modification of the germ cell results in all the cells of the organisms to get modified. This change can therefore be <u>passed on to the next generations.</u> Many countries such as Canada, Germany and Switzerland, have prohibited the use of the germline gene therapy on humans.

Intermediate photographs should show the relation of evidence to other parts of the crime scene. A. True B. False​
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

True.

Explanation:

<em>"adjective </em>

<em>adjective: intermediate </em>

<em>coming between two things in time, place, order, character, etc."</em>

Pictures correlating to the crime scene are like puzzles to find out the other meanings or cause of another picture.

For example:

A opened jug of milk sits on a table.

There's a blurred figure of a hand hitting the jug.

The jug is now laying on the table, dripping everywhere.

-

If we take out the middle picture "There's a blurred figure of a hand hitting the jug.", then we would not know what hit it over. Did someone bump into the table? Did a cat climb onto the table and release its almighty strength onto it? All we would know that it was once standing upright.

TLDR; Without intermediate pictures, it would be hard to grasp what happened on the scene. Intermediate pictures all have something in common with each other to help interpret what occurred to the viewer.

Find the sensory hair ( vibrissae) around the mouth, cheeks. what do you think these are used for?
lawyer [7]

Vibrissae, more commonly known as whiskers, are sensory hair that generally have a tactile sense, which is equivalent to skin. They grow on most mammals except monotremes (duck-billed platypus and echidnas) and humans, though humans still have remnants of the muscles once associated with vibrissae in their upper lips. Vibrissae serve a number of purposes: such as sense of touch; detection of danger, air and water currents, and movements of other animals; and the locating of food.
