identifying common genetic variants underlying chronic non-communicable diseases, but have proved to be more difficult for acute infectious diseases that represent a substantial portion of the global disease burden and are most prevalent in tropical regions. This is partly due to the practical difficulties of establishing large sample collections and reliable phenotypic datasets in resource-constrained settings, but also theoretical and methodological challenges associated with the study of pathogenic diseases in populations with high levels of genetic diversity and population structure1,2,3. The Malaria Genomic Epidemiology Network (MalariaGEN) was established in 2005 to overcome these obstacles with standardized protocols, common phenotypic definitions, agreed policies for equitable data sharing and local capacity building for genetic data analysis, enabling large collaborative studies across different countries where malaria is endemic4.
Here we extend previous work by using data collected from 11 countries to perform a comprehensive GWAS of human resistance to severe malaria (SM)

<span>The zygote will have the complete or diploid number of chromosomes, which is 46. The two ways wherein meiosis increases genetic diversity in a species are crossing over and independent assortment of homologous chromosomes. </span>
The answer is C: <span>The Neanderthals cared for the wounded and the elderly. The fact that the skeleton showed signs of broken bones that had healed indicated that the individual had been nurtured back to health after injury. The loss of teeth showed that the individual had lived to an old age.</span>
<span>Scientists first developed the geologic time scale by studying rock layers and index fossils through out the whole world. With this information, scientists placed Earth's rock layers in order by relative age. Later, radioactive dating helped determine the absolute age of the divisions in the geologic time scale.</span>
