<h2>Down Syndrome</h2>
Explanation:
Down syndrome is a genetic disorder caused when abnormal cell division results in an extra full or partial copy of chromosome 21
- Down syndrome is a genetic disorder caused when abnormal cell division results in an extra full or partial copy of chromosome 21
- Down syndrome is usually caused by an error in cell division called nondisjunction which results in an embryo with three copies of chromosome 21 instead of the usual two
- Prior to or at conception, a pair of 21st chromosomes in either the sperm or the egg fails to separates
- With development in embryo the extra chromosome is replicated in every cell of the body;this type of Down syndrome which accounts for 95% of cases is called trisomy 21
- Maternal age is the only factor that has been linked to an increased chance of having a baby with Down syndrome resulting from nondisjunction;here environmental agents such as drugs, chemicals, and radiation act as mutagens which induce mutation in the fetus
C. Shield Volcano.. think of Hawaiian volcanoes,they are basaltic eruptions, very effusive and unexplosive and are characterised by slow lava movement and very little tephra from the eruption. The basalt erupted is very hard, dense rock and so can be built up easily.
Answer: "homeostatic (dynamic equilibrium) range"
Homeostasis can be observed through the "homeostatic range (pre-set limits)" of the body's pH, temperature and blood glucose.
Explanation:
Homeostasis is the control of internal environment , physical and chemical conditions maintained by the living systems. A body takes control of its internal environment in spite of external forces interruptions. It can be defined as the body's defensive mechanisms.
Homeostasis is maintained and controlled by the nervous system.
Homeostasis is for optimal functioning of the internal environment such as body pH, body temperature, fluid balance, chemical ions balance (calcium, sodium and potassium) and blood glucose.
Body temperature is normally about 37.5° C (98.6° F).
Salt concentration in body fluids is normally about 0.9%
Blood glucose is normally about 10 mg/ml.
A disturbed (imbalanced body as a result of external forces) body regains its haemostasis balance by
Activating reflexes that fight the disturbance and maintaining behaviours to counteract the disturbance.
High littoral zone has greatest abundance of marine organisms.
<h3>What is High littoral zone?</h3>
The intertidal zone, also known as the "littoral zone," refers to the seashore that is covered during high tide and exposed during low tide, revealing a unique biome that survives under such fluctuating conditions.
<h3>Where are most marine organisms found?</h3>
The majority of ocean life can be found in coastal habitats on the continental shelf, despite the fact that this area accounts for only 7% of total ocean area. The majority of open ocean habitats are found in the deep ocean beyond the continental shelf. Species that live in the oceans and on the coasts can help to create new habitats.
