Answer:

C) Because apoptosis genes kill cells, natural selection is seldom involved in apoptosis pathways.

Explanation:

Apoptosis is a natural process taking in the cell which causes the physiological and biochemical changes in the cell which could cause the death of the cell.

The apoptosis is controlled at the genetic level therefore apoptosis is also known as the programmed cell death.

The studies have shown that the process is involved in the development of the finger and the toes in humans and the sequences controlling the process has been conserved during the evolution in a different organism.

This shows that humans and nematode have the same conserved sequence of apoptosis but the natural selection does not control the apoptosis.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.

Properties of life include the use of blank to power an organisms activities
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Properties of life include the use of <u><em>energy</em></u> to power an organisms activities.

Explanation:

Energy is the driving force which allows every cell to perform its functions. Organisms like humans tend to gain energy by the process of cellular respiration. Cellular respiration can be described as a process in which organisms make carbon dioxide and water from glucose (from food) and oxygen (from air). Huge amounts of ATP is also released during this process. In plants, the process of photosynthesis and cellular respiration supplies them with the energy sources.

There is about 1,000 times as much DNA in a human cell as in a bacterial cell, but only 5 times as many genes. What accounts for
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Phenotypic plasticity

Explanation:

Humans have evolved over thousands of years to adapt to various environmental changes. For example, when we are in an environment that requires certain level of adaptation our off spring often formalizes epigenetic traits that lows them to overcome small changes in the environment. Over time certain genes that are turned on may remain on and eventually the ones that are off remains off. This give rise to some genes that "don't work"  after millions of years of such evolution we end up with a complex genome with more DNA than "working genes".

How is respiration regulated ?​
Allisa [31]

\huge\mathbb\colorbox{black}{\color{yellow}{AnSwEr}}

In humans, the medulla region of the brain is mainly responsible for the regulation process of respiration. It is also called the respiratory rhythm centre. The chemosensitive area located near the respiratory centre sends signals across nerve impulses to alter the rate of expiration to eliminate compounds.
