Terrance, whose birth mother drank heavily throughout pregnancy, has a thin upper lip, short eyelid openings, a small head, and a smooth philtrum. His physical growth has been slow, and he shows impairment in memory, attention span, motor coordination, and social skills. Terrance has __________. a. partial fetal alcohol syndrome
b. alcohol-related neurodevelopmental disorder
c. fetal alcohol syndrome
d. cytomegalovirus

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

c. fetal alcohol syndrome

Explanation:

Fetal alcohol syndrome is the disorder that occurs in children who are exposed to alcohol during embryonic development due to alcohol consumption by their mothers.  

Fetal alcohol syndrome is characterized by stunted growth of child and problems associated with the nervous system. Impaired neurological development makes these children slow learners and affects their motor skills.  

Terrance's mother also consumed alcohol during pregnancy and exposed him to alcohol. His alcohol exposure resulted in fetal alcohol syndrome affecting his growth and mental development. Fetal alcohol syndrome also affects the shape and size of facial parts such as lips, eyelids, and head as exhibited by Terrance.

How is most DNA duplication is the body accomplished?

Answers

most DNA duplicate through a process called mitosis 
DNA carries the information for making all of the cell's proteins.These pro­teins implement all of the functions of a living organism anddetermine the organism'­s characteristics. When the cell reproduces, ithas to pass all of this information on to the daughter cells.Before a cell can reproduce, it must first replicate,or make a copy of, its DNA. Where DNA replication occurs depends uponwhether the cells is a prokaryote or a eukaryote (see the RNA sidebar onthe previous page for more about the types of cells). DNA replicationoccurs in the cytoplasm of prokaryotes and in the nucleus of eukaryotes.Regardless of where DNA replication occurs, the basic process is thesame.The structure of DNA lends itself easily to DNA replication. Each side of the double helix runs in opposite (anti-parallel)directions. The beauty of this structure is that it can unzip down themiddle and each side can serve as a pattern or template for the otherside (called semi-conservative replication). However, DNA does not unzip entirely. It unzips in a small area called a replication fork, which then moves down the entire length of the molecule.Let's look at the details:An enzyme called DNA gyrase makes a nick in the double helix and each side separatesAn enzyme called helicase unwinds the double-stranded DNASeveral small proteins called single strand binding proteins (SSB) temporarily bind to each side and keep them separatedAn enzyme complex called DNA polymerase"walks" down the DNA strands and adds new nucleotides to each strand.The nucleotides pair with the complementary nucleotides on the existingstand (A with T, G with C).A subunit of the DNA polymerase proofreads the new DNAAn enzyme called DNA ligase seals up the fragments into one long continuous strandThe new copies automatically wind up again

Which feature distinguishes slime molds from fungi?

Answers

The right answer is Slime molds are able to move

Mucilaginous mold are characterized because at some stage of their life cycle they form multinucleated aggregates (plasmodia) or multicellular (pseudoplasmodiums) that slide along the ground feeding on decaying plant matter. A few are parasites. They can be found on the ground, on the lawn and in deciduous forests. They are also common in leaf mulch or even in silt that accumulates in gutters. Some are aquatic, freshwater or marine.

The "body" of these Myxomycete consists of a mass of cytoplasm called plasmodium which is surrounded only by a thin membrane; there is no rigid wall like most mushrooms. This is why the plasmode can move by creeping or flowing, that is to say, by amoeboid movements.

Slime molds have the ability to move.

Virus? Living or not? If we use the image as an indicator, we might say living because

Answers

A virus is a tiny organism and may lead to mild-severe illnesses in animals or plants or humans.

Biologically we can term virus as a bit of RNA or DNA in a protein coat. It cannot replicate without another organism.

If we use an image of indicator, we may say yes virus is living. This is because the virus particle is non-cellular but has an NDA core.This core is enclosed in a protein coat and it has spike-like projections in all over its surface.

Gigantic mammals (mammoths, giant sloths, etc.) characterize these times.a. Pleistocene,
b. Holocene,
c. Pliocene,
d. Cretaceous

Answers

The answer is a. Pleistocene.

A group of large animals that lived during the Pleistocene is called Pleistocene megafauna. This group included mammoths, giant sloths, mastodons, cave bears, saber-toothed cats, etc. The extinction of these animals happened also in Pleistocene. The reasons for their extinction could be hunting by the humans, climate changes, or impact of asteroides.
