ANSWER: The completion of the Human Genome Project
EXPLANATION:
Human Genome Project (HGP) was completed in April, 2003. Genome varies from one individual to another.
The project involved mapping and sequencing of some people and in other to get each chromosome full sequence in individuals.
However, at the beginning of this project, concerns like ownership and privacy of personal genetic information began to spring up. People are afraid that employers may have access to their genetic information and would reject persons with health issues indicated by their unique genes and health insurance companies may also not provide insurance to people that have deficiency.
In the view of this concern, the United States in 1996 passed the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) which guides against the non-consensual and unauthorized release of health information of individuals.
Answer: C. Preying
Explanation:
A non-native species is the species which is introduced to a new ecosystem. This species is introduced intentionally or accidentally to a new ecosystem by human beings or they may enter to the ecosystem by their own.
A non-native species can be invasive which means it can compete with the native species for resources like shelter, food and mates.
According to the given situation, the Gila trouts being the native species has been affected by the non-native Rainbow trout. This may be because of the fact that non-native species can be invasive for the native species. As the species is used as mate by the non-native species and they may become the prey of non-native species. This has resulted in the extinction of the species of Gila trouts.
Answer: B) are excited by light that falls in the center of their receptive field.
Explanation:
There are two types of bipolar cells present in the retina which are differentiated on the way the centres of their receptive fields respond to light. The names of bipolar cells are ON-centre and OFF-centre.
If a light fall at the centre of the receptive field of a bipolar cell, it will experience an exciting effect on that cell, resulting in it being depolarized, it is an ON-center cell.
Hence, the correct option is B.
Answer:
A ribosome is made up of two basic pieces: a large and a small subunit. During translation, the two subunits come together around a mRNA molecule, forming a complete ribosome. The ribosome moves forward on the mRNA, codon by codon, as it is read and translated into a polypeptide (protein chain).
