Genetic change in the reproductive cells of the body (ovule or sperm) that is incorporated into the DNA of each cell in the body of the descendants. Hereditary mutations are transmitted from parents to children. It is also called germline mutation.
Stem cells are very controversial for several reasons. Mainly, because stem cells need to be harvested from Embryos, which raises a huge ethical debate as to weather the (scientifically speaking, alive) embryo harvesting is not cruel and twisted, as these are human beings that are being used. Another ethical issue is that it is related to human cloning, and often times stem cells are mislabeled. Not to mention that there is an argument for the idea of cloning humans to be used for limb replacement, throwing everybody in a tizzy. Overall, one of the greatest medical acheivements of recent years has lots of issues that haunt it.
Answer and explanation:
The meninges
There are actually 3 parts—dura mater, arachnoid, and pia mater.
The brain is soft and mushy, and without structural support it would not be able to maintain its normal shape. In fact, a brain taken out of the head and not properly suspended (e.g., in saline solution) can tear simply due to the effects of gravity. While the bone of the skull and spine provide most of the safeguarding and structural support for the central nervous system (CNS), alone it isn't quite enough to fully protect the CNS. The meninges help to anchor the CNS in place to keep, for example, the brain from moving around within the skull. They also contain cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), which acts as a cushion for the brain and provides a solution in which the brain is suspended, allowing it to preserve its shape.
The outermost layer of the meninges is the dura mater, which literally means "hard mother." The dura is thick and tough; one side of it attaches to the skull and the other adheres to the next meningeal layer, the arachnoid mater. The dura provides the brain and spinal cord with an extra protective layer, helps to keep the CNS from being jostled around by fastening it to the skull or vertebral column, and supplies a complex system of veinous drainage through which blood can leave the brain.
The arachnoid gets its name because it has the consistency and appearance of a spider web. It is much less substantial than the dura, and stretches like a cobweb between the dura and pia mater. By connecting the pia to the dura, the arachnoid helps to keep the brain in place in the skull. Between the arachnoid and the pia there is also an area known as the subarachnoid space, which is filled with CSF. The arachnoid serves as an additional barrier to isolate the CNS from the rest of the body, acting in a manner similar to the blood-brain barrier by keeping fluids, toxins, etc. out of the brain.
I believe it's C, made in light-dependent reactions and used in light-independent reactions.
Answer:
Primates
Explanation:
Humans are primates a diverse group that includes some 200 species. Because primates are related, they are genetically similar. Human DNA is, on average, 96% identical to the DNA of our most distant primate relatives, and nearly 99% identical to our closest relatives, chimpanzees and bonobos.
