Question: How chromatids and centromeres are connected together?N.B: Which substance is responsible for the bonding of chromatids and centromeres.Don’t Answer like this:Due to continuous dehydration nuclear chromatin condenses to form visible thread like structure, known as chromosome. Then each chromosome divides longitudinally into two chromatid. The sister chromatids are joined together at their centromere.

Others focus on solving food shortages, the climate crisis, or criminal investigations.Case AssignmentTo complete your essay for this assignment, selectoneof the biotechnology/genetic engineering topics below and […]

STRESS AND ILLNESSAssignment OverviewRecall the video from your Module 1 Case Assignment on how stress affects the brain. Stress not only affects the structure and function of the brain, but its genetic makeup as well. In this module you were introduced to the various effects stress has on each body system, including the reproductive system. New research suggests that experiencing intense psychological trauma may have […]

STRESS AND ILLNESSThere are numerous disorders that have been linked to stress, including depression, anxiety, heart attacks, stroke, hypertension, and immune system disturbances. In addition, stress can have direct effects on the gastrointestinal system by aggravating existing conditions like ulcers, irritable bowel syndrome, and ulcerative colitis. Nervous system disorders can be affected by stress, like insomnia and Parkinsons disease. In fact, its hard to think […]

INTRODUCTION TO SCIENCEAssignment OverviewCharacteristics of Living ThingsDefining life can be very difficult. Scientists dont all agree on a standard list of characteristics that define all life, but most generally agree on a common set of properties. Many of these properties are not limited to living things; some nonliving things may share a few of these characteristics as well. For instance, viruses dont have the necessary […]
