Answer:
<em>Option "A" might be the correct answer</em>
<em>Explanation:</em>
<em>there are some of those viruses where it can be quite potent. Some viruses, such as the rhinoviruses, seldom cause serious illness. But others, such as parainfluenza and respiratory syncytial virus, can lead to severe lung infections in young children.</em>
Answer:
Women who carry one copy of the mutated gene still have normal color vision because they have another copy, which is not mutated, in the other X chromosome that will be the dominant one. As a result, the women are carriers of the mutated gene but not color blind.
Explanation:
Colorblindness is a sex-linked mutation. A woman has two X chromosomes, while a man has one X chromosome and one Y chromosome. The mutated gene that causes color blindness is on the X chromosome, and it is OPN1LW. So if a woman has one mutated OPN1LW in one of her two X chromosomes, the OPN1LW gene in the other X chromosome will be the dominant one stopping the woman from being colorblind.
In the case of men, as they only have one X chromosome, if there is a mutation on the OPN1LW in the X chromosome, the men will be colorblind because there is no extra copy of the gene, as it is in women.
Hello! The answer is false.
It is actually the opposite. The notochord is a primitive axial skeleton, and in humans, it disappears. It eventually becomes part of the vertebral column, which is the backbone that we have today.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The correct answer is B. Worms move through changes in body structure caused by contraction of muscles compressing their watery fluid.
Explanation:
The hydroskeleton consists of a fluid-filled cavity, surrounded by muscles. The fluid pressure and the action of the muscles that border it, serve to change the body's shape and produce a movement such as digging or swimming. The successive contraction of various metamers, which are provided with bundles of circular and longitudinal muscle fibers, stretching and thickening parts of the body, allow it to move horizontally. Hydrostatic skeletons have a role in the locomotion of annelids, nematodes and other invertebrates. The hydroskeleton has similarities with the hydrostatic muscles.
Answer:
The question is incomplete, it lacks options. The options are:
A) It has made the demand for insulin decrease.
B) It has made the incidence of diabetes decrease.
C) It has made it easier for diabetics to inject themselves with insulin.
D) It has made insulin cheaper and more readily available.
The answer is D
Explanation:
Genetic engineering is a biotechnological procedure that involves the transfer of genes from one organism to another using biotechnology. In this case, bacteria cells are said to be genetically modified because their genetic content is tampered with and the genes that produces the insulin protein in humans is added into their genome. Hence, they transcribe and translate this gene to produce the protein-insulin.
Diabetic patients cannot produce this insulin in their system. Hence, the insulin produced from this genetically modified bacteria cells can be administered to diabetics via injection. This genetically modified way of producing insulin has proven to be a far better option to the previous practice of slaughtering cattles and pigs to obtain this protein because the GM method allows insulin to be produced in large amounts making it available and cheaper to diabetics.
