Which condition or statement exemplifies the concept of genomics rather than genetics?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

A. The gene for insulin is located on chromosome 11 in all people.

Explanation:

Genomics includes the study of the content, organization, function and evolution of genetic information in a complete genome. The genomic term is relatively recent. It is considered that it was coined by Thomas Roderick, in 1986, to refer to the subdiscipline of genetics dedicated to the study of cartography, sequencing and analysis of the functions of complete genomes.

Insulin is formed as pre-proinsulin of the precursor protein. This is encoded by a 14kb series in the INS gene. In most animals including humans, a single gene for insulin is found. The human gene is located on the short arm of chromosome 11 at position 15.5 (11p15.5).

The insulin gene has recently been decoded in its complete form in genomic studies. The human and rat insulin genes have been reproduced and the DNA has been sorted. It has been shown that mouse and rat insulins are identical and have similar gene series and organization, which are similar in genetic series to humans.

How does the suns energy cause a hurricane to form
BigorU [14]
The sun heats the land and oceans unevenly, creating areas of upwards and downwards moving air as well as pressure differences. This causes air to flow from one area to another. For hurricanes the sun heats the ocean, causing some water to evaporate. The water vapor powers convection in storms which can then <span>strengthen and organize to form hurricanes. Hope this helps:)

What happens to the effenciency of the exchange of oxygen in the human body at a high altitude​
Daniel [21]

Answer:

The effiency decreases at higher altitudes

Explanation:

The higher up a person is on a mountain, the thinner the air is due to the lack of plants that can grow. An example of this is Mount Everest. At a certian point on the mountain, called the "Death Zone", the air is too thin to supply enough oxygen to the human body to survive. That's why they bring oxygen tanks with them on their adventures.

all plants give out oxygen during day and carbon dioxide during 9 to you agree with this statement give reason​
ankoles [38]

Answer:

Yes, I agree with the given statement.

Explanation:

Plants undergo the process of photosynthesis for the production of their food. In this process, they require the presence of sunlight, carbon dioxide, water, minerals, and chlorophyll. The process of photosynthesis is possible only during the day because sunlight is one of the major components. Carbon dioxide is taken in by the plant through the stomata from the environment. The oxygen is formed as a product of the process and is released in the environment. This process becomes impossible during the night because of the absence of sunlight. The entire process sums up to that the plants give out oxygen during the day and give out carbon dioxide during the night.
