Yes, our distance from nature and our chronic immunological discontent could be related. Nature may be the cause of allergic problems.

<h3>What is an allergy?</h3>

Allergy is a common immune response produced by certain substances that alter the stability of the immune system.

Allergy may be caused by different materials present in nature that alter our immune system.

For example, pollen grains may cause allergic responses such as inflammation and thus produce chronic immunological problems.

What are characteristics of allosteric enzymes?
Veronika [31]

Answer:

(B) They may have binding sites for regulatory molecules that are separate from active sites.

(C) They generally have more than one subunit.

(E) They interconvert between a more active form and a less active form.

Explanation:

Allosteric enzymes are the regulatory enzymes that have a specific site for binding of modulator or effector molecule. The activity of these enzymes is altered by the noncovalent binding of modulators at the allosteric site. The binding of the modulator brings about a conformational change in the allosteric enzymes.

The relatively inactive conformation of these enzymes is called T state while the active conformation is the R state. Most of the allosteric enzymes have multiple subunits and deviate from Michaelis–Menten kinetics and exhibit a sigmoid saturation curve of V0 vs. [S].

aliina [53]

Answer:

Which type of selection tends to increase genetic variation? A. Disruptive selection B. Directional selection C. Stabilizing selection

The Answer is option A (Disruptive selection)

Explanation:

Selection can either shift the mean value of a trait, reduce the trait's variation, or increase its variation.

Genetic variation which allows natural selection to increase or decrease frequency of alleles already in the population is a source of phenotypic variation as it refers to differences in all the hereditary information of members of the same species.

Disruptive Selection is important in maintaining variation and initiating speciation as it Increases Variation by favoring alleles corresponding to more extreme phenotypes. But for it to occur, the mean phenotype has to experience the lowest fitness. Disruptive selection affects the frequency distributions of alleles and genotypes within a population.

Disruptive selection is based on the variance of a trait in a population as it increases genetic variance by equalizing the frequencies of existing alleles at polymorphic loci (a genetic loci with two or more alleles). Disruptive selection maintains and may even increase variation in natural populations by favoring extreme phenotypes, individuals with extreme values for a trait have greater reproductive success than individuals with intermediate values.

Why do you think people like Ben Saunders explore extreme environments? Do you think you’d like to explore an extreme environmen
adell [148]

One major reason for exploring extreme environments is to find new resources. An example of a resource is the search for a new antibiotic. Extreme environments have rare species endemic to the regions which can offer different insights from the normative environment we are used to.

No, I would not. This is because the risk of death is higher in an extreme environment. Example of these risks are deadly diseases or harsh climate. The body may be unable to adjust to the extreme environment hence may be unable to restore homoeostasis;  such as in restoring body heat in extremely cold environments hence leading to hypothermia.
