Las especies invasoras son animales, plantas u otros organismos que se desarrollan fuera de su área de distribución natural, en hábitats que no le son propios o con una abundancia inusual, produciendo alteraciones en la riqueza y diversidad de los ecosistemas. Cuando son transportados e introducidos por el ser humano en lugares fuera de su área de distribución natural, consiguiendo establecerse y dispersarse en la nueva región se les denomina especies exóticas invasoras resultando normalmente muy dañinas
Answer and Explanation:
The Huntington disease is caused by a mutation in the gene that codifies for the Huntingtin protein (Htt). The mutation produces an altered form of the protein leading to the neuron´s death in certain areas of the brain.
The Huntington disease characterizes for being,
- Hereditary, passing from generation to generation. To express the disease, a person must have been born with an altered gene.
- Autosomal, affecting men and women equally, because the mutated gene is located on an autosomal chromosome.
- Dominant, which means that by getting only one copy of the altered gene coming from any of the parents, the receiving person will express the disease. The mutation in the gene dominates over the normal gene copy.
- Expressed by heterozygosis. Most people affected by the disease are heterozygous, with a normal copy and a mutated copy.
There are just a few cases all around the world (3% approximately) in which the disease is expressed with no family history. The progenitors are not affected by the mutation. These cases are very rare and are called <u>"de-novo" mutations.</u> A new mutation is spontaneously produced and it is not inherited from any of the parentals. It consists of an increase in the number of CAG repetitions. In a normal person, the number of CAG repetitions is less than 35. When there are 40 or more repetitions it occurs the disease. But when there are between 35 and 39 repetitions, the penetrance of the disease is incomplete. This is a "gray zone". Those alleles that fall in the gray zone are unstable and might produce the HD. Individuals with these unstable alleles have a tendency to increase the number of repetitions from generation to generation until the number reaches 40 repetitions and the person expresses the disease. This <u>usually occurs in the paternal germinal line</u>, as it is particularly unstable in sperm and probably meiosis greatly affects their instability, causing an increase in the number of CAG repeats.
Answer:
I believe it would be 8.292
Explanation:
It's A, because it's always important to drink water. If you think about it, all the other answers seem invalid.
Anaphase is the stage of mitosis in which the chromatids separate from each other and are pulled to the opposite ends of the cell.
<h3>What is Mitosis?</h3>
Mitosis may be defined as a process of cell division where a single cell splits into two identical daughter cells. This process was first discovered by W. Fleming in 1879 in animal cells.
Anaphase is the smallest phase of the mitotic cell division in which the centromere splits and chromosomes move to the opposite poles.
Therefore, it is well described above.
