dsp733 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Constrained by the extent of existing knowledge - Developing a hypothesis and designing an experiment is based on current human knowledge. Design of experiment is limited to observation method and instrument - e.g. discovery of viruses depended on the discovery of the electron microscope. Human error - e.g. mistakes can occur in recording observations or inaccurate use of measuring instrument. Deliberately falsifying results - i.e. scientific fraud.  Bias - prior confidence in the hypothesis being true/false can affect accuracy of observation and interpretation of results.

Which statement provides an example of epigenetics A. Genetic mutations arising every other generation B. Selective breeding of
irina [24]

Answer: d. mothering style affecting the developing brain

Explanation:

Epigenetics is the study of features or "phenotypes" which do not involve changes in the DNA sequence. Epigenetics is about how genes are expressed and used instead of the DNA sequence of the genes themselves.

The behaviour of a person's genes depends not only on the DNA sequence of the genes, but also on so-called epigenetic factors. Effects on genes from the external environment can affect disease, and some of these effects can be inherited in humans.

So, Mothering style which affects the brain development is an exampe of epigenetics which do not show any genetic feature.

Hence, the correct option is d.

A normal chromosome and its homolog carrying an inversion are given. the dot (•) represents the centromere. normal: a b c • d e
kotegsom [21]

The type of inversion is Paracentric inversion.

There are two types of inversion at the chromosome level, depending on the centromere:

Paracentric inversions:

the centromere is not included in the inversion.

Pericentric inversions:

The centromere is included in the inversion which can transform a metacentric chromosome into an acrocentric chromosome.

the structure that will form during synapsis is inversion loop.

These inversions are balanced rearrangements but at the moment of meiosis they cause difficulties in pairing. There is most often formation of a pairing loop. The occurrence of recombination in the inverted segment causes the formation of abnormal gametes by duplication / impairment.

What is the name of the tear collecting structure under the skin near the bridge of the nose?
Natali [406]
The name of the tear collecting structure under the skin near the bridge of the nose is the lacrimal sac. The lacrimal sac is part of the lacrimal drainage system or the lacrimal apparatus. The tears are produced in the lacrimal gland and will drain through a hole near the lower palpebral conjuntiva called the puncta which serves as the entrance in the lacrimal system. The tears will now enter the canalicula which serves as the passage way from the puncta to the lacrimal sac. Lastly, the tears in the lacrimal sac will drain to the nasolacrimal duct and to the nose. This also explains why we get runny nose when we are crying.
