<h2>Progesterone </h2>

Explanation:

An inactivating mutation in the progesterone receptor gene would likely result in the inability of the uterus to support pregnancy

  • Progesterone is a hormone which is released by the corpus luteum in the ovary of the female reproductive system
  • It plays an important role in menstrual cycle and and helps in maintaining  the early stages of pregnancy
  • The progesterone prepares the body for pregnancy in the event that the released egg is fertilized
  • If the egg is not fertilized, the corpus luteum breaks down, the production of progesterone falls and a new menstrual cycle begins

The following image shows a pencil submerged in a glass of water. A friend thinks that the pencil is broken. How would you expla
dezoksy [38]

Correct answer: A). Light slows down as it moves from the air in to the water, resulting in refraction, or a bending of light.

This is because as light travels through one media it travels in a straight line, however, when it travels from one media to another media it bends, light path bends because of the phenomenon of refraction of light.

The refraction takes place only at the boundary, as the light continues to cross the boundary, it travels in a straight line.

So, as the portion of the pencil is submerged in water, the light will travel from water to air.

Hence it appears to be broken because of refraction of light. So, the correct answer would be option A.

A scientist is using relative dating to determine the age of a fossil that she discovered.
Dmitry [639]

Answer: D.finding fossils in the same area that are in layers closer to the surface.

Relative dating refers to the age estimation method in which past events are determined, to compare the age of object, organism, strata or rock with the age of other similar entity. This method gives an approximate or estimated age, it does not provide absolute age.  

The older fossils are found in deeper layers of the strata as compared to younger fossils. This represents the geological time and life span of primitive or preexisting organisms. Therefore, according to the given situation, finding fossils in the same area that are in layers closer to the surface is the best conclusion.
