Answer:
Down syndrome in humans is due to ADDITIONAL, PARTIAL OR FULL COPY of the 21 st chromosome.
Explanation:
Down syndrome is a genetic disorder in which an individual has a total of 47 chromosomes instead of 46 that is, 23 pairs of chromosomes which is found in normal individuals. This occurs as a result of the presence of additional, partial or full copy of chromosome 21. There are generic variations that occurs in chromosome 21 leading to down syndrome, these include:
-->Trisomy 21 : the individual has three copies of chromosome 21 instead of two copies due to abnormal cell division that occurred during development of sperm or egg.
--> Mosaic Down syndrome: the individual has some cells with an extra copy of chromosome 21 and it's caused by abnormal cell division after fertilization.
--> Translocation down syndrome: This type of down syndrome occurs when chromosome 21 gets attached to another chromosome which occurs during or after conception.
Generally the symptoms due to the presence of this extra genetic material includes:
--> short heights
--> poor muscle development
--> short neck
--> short fingers with small hands and feet
--> increased risk to development of dementia
--> greater tendency to develop obesity

sedimentary rock. Which of these processes would be the correct label to
replace the question mark?
Metamorphic rock
Sediment
Sedimentary rock
Erosion
?
A) Cooling
B) Deposition
C) Melting
D) weathering
Answer:
The process that would be the correct label to replace the question mark in this question is:
B) Deposition
Explanation:
Deposition takes place after erosion of sedimentary rock. At this stage, the eroded sedimentary rocks build up under high pressure heat, wind, ice, water, and other natural forces to originate the rock formation cycle once again. Naturally, after deposition, the igneous rocks, which have then layered up sedimentary rocks to become metamorphic rocks.

Which statement describes the role of decomposers in moving nutrients through a food web?
Answer:
Every part of an ecosystem is vital to its survival – from the green plants to furry animals and microscopic bacteria. The group of organisms called decomposers forms the final link in the food chain. They break down dead animals and plants and return vital nutrients to the soil.
Explanation:
Several examples of antisense RNA regulating translation in bacterial cells have been discovered. Molecular geneticists have also used antisense RNA to artificially control transcription in both bacterial and eukaryotic genes. To inhibit the transcription of a bacterial gene with antisense RNA, what sequence might the antisense RNA contain
Answer:
An antisense sequence with complementary to the target mRNA encoded by the gene of interest
Explanation:
An antisense sequence is usually a short RNA sequence specifically designed in the laboratory to bind by complementary to the DNA/RNA sequence of interest (usually a target mRNA) whose expression is desired to be inhibited. When an antisense bind to its target mRNA, the antisense sequence acts to block translation, thereby inhibiting protein synthesis. Moreover, it has been shown that the double-stranded antisense-RNA complexes may also increase the susceptibility of the target sequence to RNase H digestion.

Which of the following does NOT occur during interphase?
1.each chromosome replicates
2.the nucleus disappears
3.microtubules extend from centrosomes
4.centrosomes are duplicated
Answer:
The nucleus disappears
Explanation:
The nucleus does not disappear in interphase but instead, the cell grows and splits to make another duplicate of the cell. Which means the cell will also split to make another duplicate nucleus.
which term describes a pure substance that made up of only one type of atom
Answer:
Element
Explanation:
In chemistry, two substances are referred to as PURE SUBSTANCES. One of the pure substances is ELEMENT and the other is compound. An element is a pure substance that contains only one type of atom.
In an element, only one type of atom makes up the structure. For example, H2 (hydrogen) and O2 are examples of elements because they contain only hydrogen and oxygen atoms respectively
The production of red blood cells is regulated by a feedback loop involving erythropoietin. In non-disease states, the production of red blood cells is equal to the destruction of red blood cells, thus maintaining sufficient red blood cells to deliver adequate oxygen to the body's tissues. However, when the number of red blood cells decrease and oxygen levels are low, erythropoietin is produced by the liver and kidneys to increase the production of red blood cells. Is this a positive or negative feedback loop
Answer:
Negative feedback.
Explanation:
The production of erythropoietin by the liver and kidneys is a negative feedback because with the production of erythropoietin, our body tends to move to become more stable state. The erythropoietin is produced by the liver and kidneys to increase the production of red blood cells if the quantity of red blood cells are lower than the normal range. If the number of red blood cells are decreases the oxygen level in our body is low that leads to unstable condition of the body but when the concentration of red blood cells increases, the body move towards stability.

which of the following events does not occur in spermatogenesis
Answer:
The mitochondria and Golgi apparatus are packaged into the head of the sperm.
Explanation:
Spermatogenesis is the production of male germ cells. Sufficient stimulation with sex hormones, especially testosterone, and a lower temperature, which is achieved by placing the testicles in the scrotum, are required for the correct course of spermatogenesis. Sperm production has three phases: reproductive, growth and maturation. At the beginning of sperm development are spermatogonia, which are male primordial cells. They have a spherical shape and are located at the edges of the seminal canals. Spermatogonia is mitotically divided. On the one hand, in order to preserve their numbers, and on the other hand, their division produces primary spermatocytes, which lie above the layer of spermatogonia. Primary spermatocytes are diploid, but after the first meiotic division, haploid secondary spermatocytes are formed from them. They still have double chromatids, so a second meiotic division soon occurs, the product of which is spermatids. Spermatids are already fully haploid and do not divide further. Spermatids then undergo a process of spermiogenesis, in which the nucleus condenses, forming a flagellum and losing most of the cytoplasm and some organelles. Immature sperm travel through the seed-forming canals to the epididymis, where they are definitively matured. This whole process takes about 72 days.
explain the following type of respiration with diagram in toad:
1..Buccal respiration
2..Cutaneous respiration
3.. Pulmonary respiration
Answer:
1.Buccal pumping is "breathing with one's cheeks": a method of ventilation used in respiration in which the animal moves the floor of its mouth in a rhythmic manner that is externally apparent.
2.Cutaneous respiration, or cutaneous gas exchange, is a form of respiration in which gas exchange occurs across the skin or outer integument of an organism rather than gills or lungs.
3.Pulmonary ventilation is commonly referred to as breathing. It is the process of air flowing into the lungs during inspiration (inhalation) and out of the lungs during expiration (exhalation.

How did a famous event change the course of the American Revolutionary War? in essay form pls
Answer:
The American Revolution was a political battle that took place between 1765 and 1783 during which colonists in the Thirteen American Colonies rejected the British monarchy and aristocracy, overthrew the authority of Great Britain, and founded the United States of America. See the fact file below for more information and American Revolution facts.
-The American Revolution, also known as the Revolutionary War, began in 1775.
-British soldiers and American patriots started the war with battles at Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts.Colonists in America wanted independence from England.
-The British government attempted to pass some laws, enforce several taxes, and increase more control over the colonies.
-The colonies strongly objected to these laws and taxes.
-They wanted England to have no control over them.
-For ten years before the war actually started, there was a lot of tension between England and the colonies.
-The colonies had no central government at the beginning of the war, so delegates from all the colonies were sent to form the first Continental Congress.
-George Washington, a former military officer and wealthy Virginian, was appointed Commander in Chief of the Continental Army.
-Members of the Continental Congress wrote a letter to King George of England outlining their complaints and declaring their independence from England.
-On July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress adopted the Declaration of Independence, in which the colonies declared their independence from England.
-The war ended in 1783, and the United States of America was born.

Answer:
253.585 square inches
Explanation:
The figure can be decomposed into 2 rectangles and a quarter circle.
Area of the figure = area of rectangle 1 + area of rectangle 2 + area of ¼(circle)
✔️Area of rectangle 1 = Length × width
Length = 10 in
Width = 6 in
Area of rectangle 1 = 10*6 = 60 in²
✔️Area of rectangle 2 = Length × width
Length = 10 in
Width = 6 + 7 = 13 in
Area of rectangle 2 = 10*13 = 130 in²
✔️Area of ¼(circle) = ¼(πr²)
r = 9 in
π = 3.14
Area of ¼(circle) = ¼(3.14*9²) = 63.585 in²
✅Area of the figure = 60 + 130 + 63.585 = 253.585 square inches

Which of the following is a true statement? Physical property change is always better than chemical property change.
o Physical and chemical propery change can happen at the same time.
Chemical property change is better than physical property change.
Answer:
the second one
Explanation:
Sometimes it can be tricky to know whether or not a chemical reaction has occurred. For example, when you melt ice into water, you can write the process in terms of a chemical reaction. However, the chemical formula on both sides of the reaction is the same. Since the chemical identity of the matter in question is unchanged, this process represents a physical change.
Thus melting point is a physical property. On the other hand, flammability is a chemical property of matter because the only way to know how readily a substance ignites is to burn it. In the chemical reaction for combustion, the reactants and products are different.
none are better, depending on for what

What effect does planting trees and bushes on a steep hill have?
A- It makes the hill a good habitat for animals.
B- It provides oxygen to the soil.
C- Over time, it will help the hill grow taller.
D- It helps stop erosion.
Answer:
D- It helps stop erosion.
Explanation:
Erosion can be defined as a geological process which typically involves the wearing out of earthen (soil) materials and the transportation of these materials by natural forces like water, wind, etc. Soil erosion is greatest when the soil is steep.
The steepness of a body such as river or stream refers to the downward slope or gradient of the body of water.
Generally, the steepness of a body affects the rate at which other materials would flow or move around. Thus, the steeper a river or stream, the greater would be its rate of erosion. Other factors that affect the rate of erosion in an area include the following; farm management, rainfall, climate, soil type, soil cover, landscape, type of wave, crops, rock strength and position of coast.
In order to mitigate or stop the rate of erosion in an environment, trees and bushes should be planted on a steep hill because they will obstruct the free flow of water, as well as absorbing it.
