The correct answer is "increased activity of the right hippocampal formation".
Hippocampus is a brain area which is part of the limbic system and is located below the cerebral cortex. Humans have two hippocampi, one in each side of the brain. Hippocampus is responsible for the formation of long-term memories, by participating in the consolidation of short-term to long-term memory. It also plays a very important role in spatial memory and orientation.
The task that this experienced cab-driver is asked to perform is related to spatial navigation and orientation abilities. The right hippocampus has been shown to participate in the formation of memory for locations in specific environments, while the left hippocampus has been shown to be involved in autobiographical and episodic memory. As a result, the PET scan will show an increased activity of the right hippocampus.
Answer:
d. Monosomy X is the only viable monosomy known to occur in humans.
Explanation:
Human have 22 pair of homologous chromosomoses and an extra pair of sex chromosomes. While in males the sex chromosomes are X and Y , females have two chromosomes X . Anyway, in normal conditions the total number of chromosomomes that humans have in their cells is 46 (23 pair of chromosomes).
Aneuploidy is a biological condition where an individual have an abnormal number of chromosomes in their cells. In humans for examples, this would be a human having more or less than 46 chromosomes.
The Turner syndrome also called monosomy X is an aneuploidy where one of the X chromosomes is missing in a female. Although under constant supervision, people with Turner syndrome have viable healthy lives. However this is the only monosomy that occur in humans that is compatible with life.
First calculate the probability of type AB, which is the remainder after subtracting types A, B and O.
P(AB) = 1-(0.34+0.12+0.5) = 1-0.96 = 0.04
Anti-b will react with types B and AB, so
P(reaction) = P(B)+P(AB) = 0.12 + 0.04 = 0.16
Answer: For this person, the probability of reaction with anti-b is 0.16
One way to reduce water consumption on farms is to use drip irrigation. Drip irrigation is a way of watering the plants in the farm directly to their roots. By this less water are consumed and you are sure that the plant really received the amount of water that they need.
