Answer: A focal spot in the x-ray setup is the area of the anode surface which receives the beam of electrons from the cathode. It is the apparent source of x-rays.

Below are some of the factors that affect its size.

Explanation:

Size of the focal spot depends on

* angle of the anode

Other prime factors that affect x-ray emission; under the control of the radiographer includes;

• Miliamperage-second (mAs)(tube current measurement)

• Kilovoltage (kVp) Controls both the quantity and quality of the x-ray beam with the speed and energy.

• Distance (d) - Related to tube design and construction.

• Tube housing

• Target material

• Filtration

• Voltage waveform

Why does it make metabolic sense for the same hormone signal to stimulate glycogenolysis and inhibit glycolysis in the liver whi
Debora [2.8K]

This is because if the two  metabolic processes were to be  active at at the same time;  

Two molecules of<u> ATPs</u> and <u>Guanosine triphophate </u>(sometimes used for  energy transport) <u>will be expended per each cycle, with no  compensatory rate  of replacements present  at the moment in the cell,this  affects cell metabolism for energy availability</u>

<u>2</u> Both<u> Glycolysis and Gluconeogensis </u>are both<u> exergonic processes  in cells. </u> The  heat energy liberated from these Calorinogenic effects  will be higher than what the natural thermodynamic barrier of cells can withstand. Consequently;  the heat will raise temperature of the cells affecting metabolic activities of hormones and enzymes which are (proteins) ,and easily denature by high temperatures.    

However, in muscles cells,gluconeogeneis is a compensasory process of Glycolysis. This because during active exercise with high metabolic demand in muscles cells, glucose is rapidly metabolise  to to pyruvate,(but not at the rate that the Citric acid  cycle can  metabolise) for Lactic acid production by muscles cells for energy production.  Pyruvate must be broken down rapidly so that NAD+ will be available for  Glycolysis to continue. Therefore  to sustain Glycolysis at this rate  continuous supply of glucose is supplied  from Gluconeogenesis.

. Pepper colors range from bright red, orange, and yellow shades, to dark green and brown shades. Coloration in bell peppers is
sattari [20]

Answer:

All crosses and proportions, genotypes and phenotypes are attached.

Explanation:

a. Within living organisms, staining is a characteristic governed by a polygenic inheritance, which means that there is more than one gene involved in the staining process. as you already know, each gene has two alleles, if a trait is controlled by 2 genes, it means that we will have 4 alleles at the crosses.

From the description between dominance and recessivity between the alleles that control the colors of the pepper, shown in the question above, we can see that for the crossing between a red pepper and a green pepper, being able to generate a completely orange offspring, it would be necessary that the genotype of the parent peppers was: Red: RGRG, green: rgrg.

This would generate an orange-colored RrGg offspring, as you can see at the F1 crossing.

b. When individuals of F1 offspring are crossed, the combination of alleles and the determination of genotypes and phenotypes becomes much more complex, because instead of 4 alleles, we will have the combination of 16 alleles among themselves. Once again we will need to rely on the description of dominance and recessivity shown in the question above, so that from the crossing between the alleles of each gene, we can reach a conclusion, as you can see in the F2 crossing.
