One example: The improvement in science and technology over the years has decreased the infant mortality rate. Since more babies live, we have a higher population.
Also, with increases in science and technology, there are many diseases that were once considered fatal that are now easily treated. This has also led to a higher population.
When comparing the birth patterns of humans and non-human primate, Rosenberg and Trevathan discovered some very clear differences:
1. The human period of labour and child birth is exceptionally long and painful compared to other non-human primates.
E.g. a human labour can last anywhere from 10-20 hours while that of a chimpanzee lasts only 2 hours.
2. Humans have the ability to walk straight, the trade off however is that it is extremely difficult and painful to give birth to a big brained human baby.
Answer:
the reporter gene can randomly insert near to an enhancer sequence which can induce its expression
Explanation
Enhancers are genetic sequences capable of activating gene expression by binding to specific proteins (e.g., transcription factors). Enhancers can regulate the expression of nearby genes located thousands of nucleotides away, i.e., over several kilobases away. In the human genome, it is well known that enhancers are scattered across the 98% of the genome. In this case, it is expected that the reporter GFP gene construct is randomly inserted near an enhancer sequence (a 10% chance of insertion), thereby being regulated by that enhancer.
I would choose to make sure the local people value the forest especially the kipunji monkeys. How I would do that is by convicing them that leaving the forest is more profitable than cutting it down for agriculture use by suggesting that tourists will pay to visit their land. Tourism would boost the economy and value of the land. The local people can make a big profit and save their forest too.
Answer:
Explanation:
Different materials will change temperature at different rates when exposed to the same amount of heat. This is because the different materials absorb heat at different rates.
