Answer:
neurocysticercosis
Explanation:
Cysticercosis is the infection caused by the cystic form of the pig's tapeworm, Taenia solium, and neurocysticercosis is when the central nervous system (CNS) is affected. It is usually possible through direct ingestion of helminth eggs, but it can also occur in a usual infestation (teniasis). It is an endemic condition in several countries in South America, Africa and Asia, accounting for about 29% of the causes of secondary epilepsy in these locations. It can also cause headache, hydrocephalus, meningitis, and even central nervous system infarction.
Answer: the expression of certain genes is affected by temperature
Explanation:
For organisms to survive changing environmental conditions, a lot of molecular processes occur in the genes.
For the arctic fox, enzymes coded by specific genes are periodically "switched on or off" depending on the temperature.
Thus, the change in colour can be EXPLAINED by the expression of certain genes affected by temperature
Pines, spruces, and firs are conifers
