Answer:

In the apical layer of the pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium.

Explanation:

The sustentacular cells work as metabolic and material assistance for the olfactory epithelium. Analogous to neural glial cells, maintaining non-neural cells in the olfactory epithelium that are found in the apical zone of the pseudostratified ciliated columnar epithelium. The olfactory epithelium, located inside the nasal cavity, consists of olfactory receptor cells, which possess functional cilia expansions. The cilia trap odor molecules as they cross beyond the epithelial exterior. Data regarding the molecules are then forwarded from the receptors to the olfactory bulb in the brain. There exist two types of maintaining cells in the olfactory epithelium: sustentacular cells and microvillar cells.

Which chromosomal defect is caused when part of a chromosome breaks off and reattaches backward on the same chromosome?

LiRa [457]

The right answer is inversion.

Inversion is a genetic mutation characterized by the end-to-end reversal of a portion of chromatid on a chromosome.

In other words, it is a double break then it is replaced after rotation of 180 ° of a chromosome segment (backward insertion).

We distinguish :

Paracentric inversions: The centromere in the chromosome is not included in the inversion.

Pericentric inversions: The centromere is included in the inversion which transforms a metacentric chromosome into an acrocentric chromosome.

Answer:

la selección natural es el mecanismo principal por el cual la evolución ocurre

Explanation:

Charles Darwin fue un naturalista inglés que propuso la teoría de la evolución o 'descendencia con modificación' mediante el mecanismo de selección natural. Acorde a esta teoría, la selección natural se define como el mecanismo selectivo de reproducción diferencial de los individuos mejor adaptados a su ambiente. La variabilidad es el la materia prima sobre la cual la selección natural actúa, seleccionado aquellos individuos que presentan combinaciones fenotípicas y genotípicas más adaptadas para sobrevivir en un ambiente en particular. Los individuos de una población que son 'superiores adaptativamente' poseen más chances de sobrevivir y reproducirse, y por lo tanto tienen también más probabilidades de transmitir sus genes a la siguiente generación.

Ocean-dwelling chemoheterotrophic bacteria that generate energy via aerobic respiration are dependent on the presence of photoau

galben [10]

Because, photoautotrophs serves as their carbon sources.
Chemoheterotrophic bacteria are those bacteria that are incapable of producing their own food, they depend on photoautotrophs, which are capable of making their own food by trapping energy from the sun. Thus, photoautotrophs serves as source of food for the chemoheterotrophic bacteria.
