1- to 4-year-old age group experiences the highest overall injury rate for any age group under the age of 15.
More children die from unintentional accidents each year than from any other cause. The rates of unintentional injuries are generally higher among male teenagers aged 15 to 19 years, youngsters from low-income homes, and people of colour. In remote locations, some injuries also happen more frequently.
Although these demographic risk factors cannot be changed, environmental and behavioural dangers, such as dangerous driving, drinking while intoxicated, swimming pools that are not fenced in, and homes without smoke detectors, can be successfully changed with the right techniques.
The three most frequent unintentional accidents that resulted in fatalities among children aged 0 to 19 in 1996 were drowning, motor vehicle occupant, and pedestrian injuries. Although rates varied, these mechanisms together accounted for more than half of all unintentional injury deaths among children and teenagers.
Answer: 1. B-D-A-C.
Explanation: If a genetic error occurs during chromosome replication, it will lead to a series of events ranging from:
1) Production of a DNA strand with an altered base sequence.
2) Production of an mRNA strand with an altered base sequence during transcription. This is because mRNA is synthesized by copying the genetic message coded in the DNA.
3). Synthesis of a protein with an altered amino acid sequence during translation, and this eventually leads to
4). The expression of a new inheritable trait in the organism.
Answer:
Explanation:
National Park Service has been keeping the native ponies on Ocracoke Island since the 1960s. It is believed that these ponies arrived and left by the ships. These ships required to lower their load thus they left the ponies on the Island. These ponies are known as Ocracoke ponies and also called as Banker ponies. These ponies share a link to old Spanish horses genetically. The unique characteristics of the ponies include one fewer lumbar vertebrae, greater bone density, short necks, wide foreheads, and one fewer rib.
<span>The bacteria are probably eubacteria because they live on common plant leaves.
</span>Archaebacteria living in extreme places(like the thermophile bacteria that in a volcano) while eubacteria lives in normal places. L<span>eaves of common houseplants is not an extreme location, so </span>Archaebacteria is less likely found there<span>. </span>Both <span>eubacteria and archaebacteria could be autotroph or heterotroph, so the information cannot be used to conclude anything.
