Answer:

disequilibrium

Disequilibrium is the answer because homeostasis is defined as keeping the internal environment fairly constant by constant adjusting to the physical and chemical changes of the body fluid . Homeostasis is basically balancing the body so disequilibrium will be the best answer for the opposite of homeostasis

Which process must occur before mitosis and meiosis can occur?

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

Hello!

✧･ﾟ: *✧･ﾟ:* *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

❖ Before mitosis and meiosis occur, DNA replication has to occur. DNA replication is when another copy is made of the DNA and in mitosis and meiosis, you need the replicated DNA for the sister chromatids.

Tasya [4]

Answer:

The chromosomes are arranged in their respective homologous pairs. In humans, this displays 22 pairs of autosomes and 1 pair of sex chromosome.

Explanation:

Chromosomes that are similar in their size and shape and also display similar genetic traits and carry the same genetic information are paired together. These are known as homologous chromosomes. These chromosomes carry different variations of similar genes in them. In humans there are 46 chromosomes in total. These chromosomes are paired and form 23 homologous pairs. Among these 23 homologous pairs, 22 pairs are autosomes and one pair are the sex chromosomes which are either (XX or XY). The sex chromosomes determine the sex of an individual. XX chromosomes represent a female and XY chromosomes represent a male.

You have a 15kb plasmid. EcoRI cuts the plasmid into 7kb and 8kb pieces, and BamHI cuts the plasmid into 1kb and 14kb pieces. If

Harman [31]

Answer:

a. Bands at 1kb, 6kb and 8kb

Explanation:

The EcoRI and BamHI are the restriction enzymes which cut the DNA sequence especially a plasmid at specific sites called the restriction sites.

The restriction enzymes produces bands of specific length therefore these restriction enzymes are used to estimate the approximate length of the DNA.

In the given question, the

1. EcoRI- produces two strands of 7 kb and 8 kb

2. BamHI- produces two strands of 1kb and 14kb

This shows that the length of DNA sequence is 15kb

But when the DNA strand are digested with both the enzymes simultaneously then it will produce three bands as:

i) 14 kb can be broken down in 2 bands of 6 kb and 8 kb

ii) 1 kb band is already produced by the Bam HI.

This shows that 1+6+8= 15 kb

Thus, Option-A is correct.

Match the following terms and definitions. 1. an electrical nerve impulse sent by nerve fibers to the central nervous system for

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

1. an electrical nerve impulse sent by nerve fibers to the central nervous system for interpretation. Action potential.

2. neurons that detect chemicals such as those found in food. Chemoreceptors.

3. type of eyes many arthropods have; eyes that protrude outward and consist of many lenses. Compound eyes.

4. the structure that gives the response to an environmental change. Effector

5. neurons that detect electrical fields. Electroreceptors.

6. secretion of hormones into the blood stream to affect distant processes. Endocrine.

Explanation:

An action potential is a change in the internal charge of a cell due to depolarization. These changes allow the transmission of a message from any part of the body to the central nervous system. The central nervous system will interpret the message and will give a response.

There are different types of receptors in our bodies. Chemoreceptors are the ones that detect chemicals and produce an action potential or a neurotransmitter. These receptors respond to chemicals. Another type of receptor is the electroreceptors. They detect electrical fields and are only on the skin of aquatic animals.

Compound eyes have a large number of ommatidia. As a result, the anthropods with this type of eyes have a large view angle. In other words, every ommatidium sees an image, and the final product is a combination of all of them.

The effector is the structure that gives an answer once an affector has sent the message to the nervous system that there was a change in the environment.

There are different kinds of secretions, autocrine, paracrine, and endocrine. In the endocrine secretion, the gland secrets hormones into the bloodstream so that they can travel long distances up to their target cell, which is far from the gland.
