A central nervous system depressant that produces a false feeling of well-being and efficiency and results in slower reaction time to stimulation is ________.
Solution 1
Alcohol is a central nervous system depressant that produces a false feeling of well-being and efficiency and results in slower reaction time to stimulation. Alcohol influences the brain activity and consciousness by hindering the flow of messages from nerve receptors to the brain. This thereby changes one’s perceptions, emotions, and senses.

Question
Which of the following icons is used to represent a male affected with a disease? A half-filled circle
A half-filled square
A completely filled circle
A completely filled square
Solution 1
I believe a completely filled square represents a male affected with a disease.
A half-filled circle represents a carrier female, while a a half filled square represents a carrier male and a completely filed circle represents an infected female with a disease. Normally these are shown in a human pedigree which shows the occurrence an appearance or phenotype of a particular gene or organisms and its ancestors from one generation to the next.

Solution 2
The answer is a completely filled square, due to the fact that a circle represents female so generically a square would be male. An empty shape has no traces of the disease, half filled shape is a carrier of said disease, and fully filled shape has the disease.
Question
After the industrial revolution, dark-colored moths outnumbered light-colored moths in certain regions of england. within the past 40 years, factories in these regions have added scrubbers and air purifiers to their smokestacks, and the relative number of light-colored moths has increased. the probable reason for this increase is that
Solution 1
The reason for the increase is that the light-colored moths are no longer "selected against" by predators. These birds could only see the light ones against a sooted background. After removing the dark soot, these predators could no longer distinguish the light ones from their natural light background. Thus more light-colored moths survived to reproduce, passing on more of their recessive genes for light color to their offspring. After several hundreds of generations, most of the later generations were light, due to selective advantage of camouflage to survive predation.
Question
Which organelle is responsible for making lipids and aiding in detoxification of cells? A. Golgi apparatus
B. smooth endoplasmic reticulum
C. rough endoplasmic reticulum
D. ribosomes
Solution 1
Answer:
B. smooth endoplasmic reticulum
Explanation:
The smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) is a member of the endomembrane system. It is present in eukaryotic cells. SER is made of tubular structures called cisternae. It does not contain ribosomes. So, it does not associated with protein synthesis. Its primary function is to make lipids, steroid hormones and detoxification of the metabolic by-products which are harmful. The fats or lipids synthesised by SER helps in membrane biogenesis.
Solution 2
The Golgi apparatus is the only organelle that produces, modifies, packages, and then delivers a product throughout the cell.

Question
Compared to the upper paleolithic, mousterian ____. burials are more complex, usually containing hundreds of tools burials usually contain several individuals, precisely oriented relative to each other tools are usually more sophisticated tools are made of materials transported (traded) over long distances none of these

The burials represented the individual who are singled out for treatment by mortuary. Most burials were done in caves and shelters where adults were mostly buried at the center.
Question
Certain green leafy vegetables have a very low calcium bioavailability due to the presence of low calcium content. low vitamin d content. naturally occurring binders. high magnesium content, which lowers calcium absorption.
Solution 1
The answer would be: naturally occurring binders.
Some leafy vegetables like spinach have high in calcium. But spinach has a substance that binds calcium called oxalic acid. This substance will prevent the absorption of the calcium, makes it wasted. There are other calcium binders that can be found like phytate or magnesium.
