Explanation:

The  Chromosomal Theory of Inheritance, basically answer the question: where are genes found in a cell?

It was described by Sutton and Boveri between 1902-1903 and states that individual genes are found at specific locations on particular chromosomes. It also postulates that the behavior of chromosomes during meiosis can explain why genes are inherited according to Mendel’s laws.

It states:

- Chromosomes, like Mendel's genes, come in matched (homologous) pairs in an organism:  one member comes from the mother and one from the father.

- The members of a homologous pair separate in meiosis, so each sperm or egg receives just one member. This is referred as the law of segregation.

-The members of different chromosome pairs are sorted into gametes independently of one another in meiosis.

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

The normal body temperature for humans is 37 degrees Celsius. Most of the enzymes of a human's bodywork best at this temperature. If an enzyme was discovered which works best at 39 degrees Celsius, then it means that the enzyme works at elevated temperatures for events which require slightly higher temperatures.

The enzyme will most probably work for overcoming fever or for reducing the temperature of the body after exercise.

<span>John could make some simple changes to his breakfast to increase his fiber intake. Instead of orange juice, he could drink juice with added fiber such as V8 juice or fiber added grape juice. Instead of corn flakes, he could eat a high fiber cereal such as Grape Nuts. Instead of white toast, he could eat a slice of high fiber whole wheat bread. He can make some simple substitutions that will really impact his diet and his health.</span>

Answer:

Methemoglobinemia

Explanation:

Methemoglobinemia (also known as the blue baby syndrome), is a condition with multiple etiologies which is associated with the lack of oxygen in the blood. This syndrome affects the function of red blood cells by altering the amount of hemoglobin protein, which carries and distributes oxygen to the body. Methemoglobinemia may be acquired by exposure to drugs and/or toxins. In this regard, it has been shown that high levels of nitrates in the water may induce this syndrome in infants.
