Answer: Pithecanthropus erectus.

Explanation:

Between 1891 and 1892 Eugène Dubois believed he had found the "missing link", hypothesized by Ernst Haeckel, when he discovered some loose teeth, a skull cap and a femur - very similar to that of modern man - in the excavations he was carrying out in Trinil, located on the island of Java, Indonesia. Homo erectus erectus was the first specimen of Homo erectus to be discovered.  Dubois first named it <u>Anthropopithecus erectus and then renamed it Pithecanthropus erectus.</u> The name Homo erectus means in Latin "erect man", wich means, "standing man", whereas Pithecantropus erectus means "standing ape-man".

So, Dubois published these findings as Pithecanthropus erectus in 1894, more popularly known as "Java Man" or "Trinil Man". In the 1930s the German palaeontologist Ralpf von Koenigswald obtained new fossils, both from Trinil and from new locations such as Sangiran and in 1938 von Koenigswald identified a magnificent Sangiran skull as "Pithecanthropus". It was not until 1940 that Mayr attributed all these remains to the genus Homo (Homo erectus erectus).

All of his offspring will be free of the disease, assuming his wife is not a carrier.

The phenotype of an organism is a collection of its observable traits or characteristics. The term describes the physical form and structure of an organism as well as its physiological and biochemical traits, behavior, and results of that behavior. The blood clots incorrectly as a result of hemophilia, a genetic bleeding disorder. Both spontaneous bleeding and bleeding after an injury or surgery may result from this. Numerous clotting proteins found in blood can help to stop bleeding. Blood clotting is impaired by a rare disorder called hemophilia. It happens as a result of the body not producing enough of a protein called a clotting factor. Clotting aids in stopping the bleeding after an injury or accident. In the absence of coagulation, bleeding may be excessively simple or prolonged. There is currently no known cure for hemophilia, despite the fact that treatment for those with the condition has significantly improved over the past few decades.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The correct option is: <em>a deficiency of dopamine in the substantia nigra.</em>

Explanation:

The substantia nigra is the principal site involved in the physiopathology of Parkinson´s disease.

Cells from this area degenerate and die progressively causing important degeneration in the central nervous system. The cells that die -with no known reason- are those that produce dopamine and proportionate dopaminergic innervation to the encephalon. In fact, almost all the symptoms exhibited by patients with the disease can be explained by the lack of dopamine in the substantia nigra.  

This area uses the neurotransmitter to communicate neurons from the base ganglia. Ganglia are responsible of modulating and modifying movements.

The nigrostriatal system participates in planning and automatic execution of learned movements. When the ganglia activity decreases, so it does the amount and velocity of movements, something typical of the disease.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Explained

Explanation:

Prokaryotic cells are generally smaller in size than the eukaryotic cells and thus the DNA in the prokaryotic cells are much smaller than the DNA in the eukaryotic cells therefore, the later organisms have many origins where replication occurs simultaneously. Moreover, Prokaryotic cells lack neucleus and whereas eukaryotic cells have neucleus in them which is bounded by the membrane.
