How does diploidy help to preserve genetic variation? see concept 23.4 (page 498)?
mario62 [17]
Monoploid organisms reproduce asexually since they need to transmit all of their genetic material to their offspring. Diploid organisms, have 2 copies of their genetic material that differ slightly in their genes. Since the progeny gets half of the DNA from each parent, we have that new combinations can emerge; for example, if the mother is AA for some allele and the father aa, their offspring will be Aa, a new genotype. This might have different implications (for example, the recessive gene for thalassemia also provides resistance to malaria). Finally, during meiosis, there is also an event called crossover that increases the genetic variation of the offspring.

Dr. Brantz wants to use neuroimaging to detect which part of the brain is active when a person is lying. He asks half his partic
Katyanochek1 [597]

Dr. Brantz wants to test the part of the brain which is active while lying. For this purpose, he will need to make use of the fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) technique. This technique is used for measuring the brain activity by the means of the detecting changes in the blood flow. The neural activation affects the cerebral blood flow, and this change can be noticed using fMRI.

Hence, the answer is 'fMRI'.
