Answer:

mitral valve

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

E. It takes a picture of the brain according to oxygen levels. More oxygen in an area indicates more activity in that area.

Explanation:

Haemoglobin is diamagnetic when oxygenated but paramagnetic when deoxygenated. This distinction in magnetic characteristics leads to tiny variations in the blood MR signal. Since blood oxygenation differs, these variations can be used to identify brain activity depending on the concentrations of neural activity.

DDT is an insecticide that was used extensively in the mid-1900s to kill mosquitoes. It was very effective at first, but after a
dlinn [17]

Insect populations can develop resistance to insecticides over time. The evolution of resistance is associated with an increase in the frequency of adaptive genes in the population.

  • In the case above described it is expected that a few mosquitoes in the population were resistant to DDT before it was ever used (Option a is correct).

  • Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) is a pesticide used in agriculture.

  • After exposure to DDT, those individuals in the mosquito population that didn't carry gene variants (i.e., alleles) associated with the resistance to this pesticide died.

  • Subsequently, insects having adaptive alleles associated with DDT resistance survived and reproduced, thereby increasing the frequency of adaptive genes/alleles in the population.

Kryger [21]

Ans.

Genetically modified grasses are produced by using genetic engineering techniques, which contain genes for drought and disease resistance. Due to those genes, these grass varieties have higher chances to survive in stress condition and they spread with a fast and tremendous rate.

Most of the genetically modified grass varieties are still not approved by government, because 'these grass species may act as uncontrolled invasive species and cause harm to other useful plant species as they can spread fast and hard to wipe out due to resistance against stress conditions.'
