Answer/Explanation:

Nondisjunction is when homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids fail to properly separate during meiosis. This means daughter cells have an incorrect set of chromosomes.

Nondisjunction occurs during meiosis I or II, with different results in each. The outcomes at either meiosis i or meiosis ii are shown in the attached picture (nondisjunction at meiosis ii on the left (blue arrow) and nondisjunction at meiosis i on the right (dark green arrow)

Nondisjunction during meiosis i

Nondisjunction during meiosis i occurs when homologous chromosomes fail to properly separate. This results in two gametes without that chromosome, and two gametes with two copies of that chromosome. This is wrong, as each gamete should have one copy.

Nondisjunction during meiosis ii

If the sister chromatids fail to separate during meiosis II (the homologous chromosomes have already successfully separated), then there will be two normal gametes that have one copy of the chromosome (correct), one gamete will not have that chromosome, and one gamete with two copies of the chromosome.

What are the advantages and disadvantages to sunscreens containing common active ingredients such as oxybenzone, octocrylene, an

aleksklad [387]

Sunscreens contain chemical ingredients in their compositions, such as avobenzone, oxybenzone, octocrylene, homosalate, octisalate and octinoxate, which have been linked to health problems such as hormonal disruptions, cancer, as well as liver and kidney changes.

<h3>What is oxybenzone, octocrylene, and homosalate bad for?</h3>

Oxybenzone, octocrylene, and homosalateto protect from UVA also penetrates deep into the skin. The penetration into the human body can cause several problems in human health such as

allergic reactions
cell mutation
deregulation of hormonal processes,
etc.

With this information, we can conclude that Oxybenzone, octocrylene, and homosalateto is considered a hazardous eye irritant and, as an allergen, is also known to cause skin allergies.

<u>Distress vocalizations</u> can help this rescue dog and firefighters find fearful people and pets stuck in buildings that are on fire

Distress vocalizations are sounds produced in the presence of painful, stressful, or threatening stimuli.

Mammalian vocalizations are the product of respiratory and laryngeal activities under the direct control of brain stem cranial and spinal motor neurons and modulated by higher brain processes.

Vocalizations offer the further promise of unique informational content about the emotional state of the subject. There is evidence that the form, contexts, and neural processes which modulate distress vocalizations are highly conserved between species.
