What would be the advantages of using “natural regeneration” over stem cell transplants?
Serhud [2]
In the science world today, both the natural regeneration and stem cell therapy can be used to generate new cells and both processes have thier advantages and disadvantages. The following are the advantages of natural regeneration over stem cell transplants:
1. Natural regeneration is cheaper compares to stem cell transplant.
2. The process of natural regeneration is safe and does not involve the fear of unknown, long time effects like that of stem cell transplant.
3. Naturally regenerated cells can not be rejected by the patient's body but a stem cell transplanted cell can be rejected by the patient's body.

The anterior portion of the body of most annelids, such as the earthworm, is adapted for sensing the environment.
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

The answer is False. Although sensitive cells are <u>more abundant</u> in the <u>anterior portion</u> of the annelid´s body, in general, they are arranged in all the segments.

Explanation:

Annelids, such as the earthworm, have a variety of sensory cells:    

  • <u>Mechanoreceptors</u>, disposed of in groups in <em><u>each segment</u></em> of their body.  
  • <u>Photoreceptors</u>: Light-sensitive cells. Although they are <em><u>located in the whole </u></em>body, they are <em><u>abundant in anterior and posterior segments</u></em>, concentrated in the intern and dorsal part of the epidermis.
  • <u>Humidity receptors</u> are the most sensitive cells and are <u>located in the first segments</u> of the earthworm body
  • <u>Chemoreceptors</u>: sensorial cells cumulus forming a prominent tubercle with prolongations that extends through the cuticle. These tubercles form three rings <em><u>in each segment</u></em> but are especially <em><u>abundant in the anterior part</u></em> of the body.

The tegument is very rich in free nervous terminations, which functions might be tactile.

Six fingered offspring are formed from normal parents, why?
Kruka [31]
Dominant' traits will actually disappear faster if they are disadvantageous.

Think about it: if everyone who has even a single copy of a particular allele is at a disadvantage (manifests the phenotype, in this case six fingers), then even single copies are selected against.

In the case of recessive traits, selection occurs only against homozygous carriers, who may be very rare if the allele itself is rare.

A concrete example would be something like Tay-Sachs disease. If the allele that causes this were dominant, every carrier would die before adulthood, and it would occur only as a very rare de novo mutation. But because it is recessive, it persists for now; heterozygous carriers have no disadvantage.

Atoms with a low electronegativity, like calcium, might bond with ____________.
TiliK225 [7]

The answer is A.The calcium atom must bond with an atom of high electronegativity (like fluorine) because the higher electronegativity atom will bully the low electronegativity atom and take away its electrons.

These are the choices:

A. an atom with a high electronegativity, like fluorine

B. another atom with a low electronegativity, like lithium

C. another atom that would like to share electrons

D. no other atoms because it's too weak to bond with anything
