When completing this exercise, it may be useful to refer back to Labs 10-12 for information about living primates. In 2009, a ne

w fossil species, called Darwinius masillae, was identified in Germany, represented by a nearly complete skeleton nicknamed Ida (depicted on p. 387 of your lab manual). It lived around 47 mya. It had a small brain, short protruding snout, large eyes, and postorbital bar. Its diet probably included a lot of fruit and leaves. It did not have a dental comb. It had nails instead of claws and was probably an arboreal quadruped. Researchers disagree about whether the fossil is more similar to living haplorhines (tarsiers, monkeys, and apes) or more similar to strepsirhines (lemurs and lorises). The skeleton is about 23 inches (58 cm) long including the tail, and has a body length of about 9 inches (24 cm) without the tail. Describe at least two features that Darwinius shares with living haplorhines.

Answer:

  • short protruding snout
  • large eyes
  • It had nails instead of claws
  • Absence of dental comb
  • Long tail

Explanation:

Haplorhines and Ida share the following characteristics:

- Both of them have plane nails in their fingers instead of claws. Nails are useful while eating and grooming. They might be necessary for defense too.

- They have a short snout, which is the cause of a poorly specialized olfactive perception.

- Neither of them has the dental comb characteristic of strepsirrhines.

- Eyes are big, located in the frontal area of the skull, and facing front. Vision sense is very developed. They have binocular vision, which allows them to calculate distances.

- The long tail is shared by both groups. Used during motion, to equilibrate, to hold, or grab.

Devise an experiment that tests the effects of changing salt concentrations on regeneration of brain cells in Alzheimer’s patien
Makovka662 [10]

Experiment that tests the effects of changing salt concentrations on regeneration of brain cells in Alzheimer’s patients.

Explanation:

Experiments are conducted on brain cells by first growing human embryonic stem cells in a Petri dish and then converting them to brain cells. later the Alzheimer’s disease was genetically engineered into those nerve cells through gene mutation.

When these cells are exposed to varying concentrations of salt solution, the cells with shrink or swell according to the concentration due to cellular osmosis.

The cells will undergo chemical changes due to this. The regeneration probabilities of nerve cells affected by Alzheimer’s disease can be studied by such experiments.

Dhara was recently in a car accident. her doctor told her that she has frontal lobe damage. how will this damage affect dhara? s
kotykmax [81]
When a person have a front lobe damage in the brain, it is most likely that the person would experience memory loss. It is because the frontal lobe is the one responsible in the memory, motor function and the behavior of a person in terms of social and sexually. When she has frontal lobe damage, the correct choice would be she is going to experience memory loss because the frontal lobe controls or stores the memory of a person.
