g It was noted in the Experimental Pathways feature in Section 10.4 that at least two- thirds of the human genome is derived fro

m transposable elements. The actual number could be much higher, but it is impossible to make a determination about the origin of many other sequences. Why do you suppose it is difficult to make assignments about the origin of many of the sequences in the human genome

Answer:

TEs are repetitive and mobile elements, thereby it is hard to trace their origins  

Explanation:

Repetitive elements are patterns of nucleotide sequences in the DNA characterized to have multiple copies throughout the genome. DNA mini-satellite and Transposable Elements (TEs) are some examples of highly repetitive DNA. TEs are repetitive mobile elements that have the ability to jump within the genome and occupy a major part of eukaryotic genomes. For instance, there is a type of TEs called retrotransposons which mobilize through a copy-and-paste mechanism, thus increasing their number in a genome. In consequence, TEs represent highly repetitive and dynamic genomic sequences, and thereby it is hard to trace their evolutionary histories.

What happen to the brain and the brain cavity?
Gnoma [55]

Answer: OK so The ventricles of the brain are a communicating network of cavities filled with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and located within the brain parenchyma. The ventricular system is composed of 2 lateral ventricles, the third ventricle, the cerebral aqueduct, and the fourth ventricle (see the images below).Survival in untreated hydrocephalus is poor. Approximately, 50% of the affected patients die before three years of age and approximately 80% die before reaching adulthood. Treatment markedly improves the outcome for hydrocephalus not associated with tumors, with 89% and 95% survival in two case studies
