Historically, the x chromosome had more genes assigned to it than its physical size would seem to warrant relative to the other

chromosomes. Can you suggest another explanation as to why this was the case?

Answer:

Humans contain 46 chromosome or 23 pairs of chromosomes. Among them  22 pairs are autosomes and one pair contains the sex chromosome. Humans female are XX and human males are XY.

The X chromosome determines the sex of an individual and females one X chromosome is randomly inactivated. The human X chromosome has large number of genes and contains large euchromatic regions that are highly activating gene regions. The X chromosome also contains the conserved regions that are far shorter in Y chromosome. The X chromosome is large in size and has large number of genes.

Answer:

There are four fates for acetyl CoA in the human body. Here are all the fates of acetyl CoA:

Explanation:

1. Acetyl CoA in the mitochondria can be used in the electron transport chain to form CO₂ and water.

2. Acetyl CoA can synthesize ketonebodies which are oxidized for energy  in the liver.

3. Acetyl CoA outside of the mitochondria and inside the cytosol can also be used to make fatty acids from glucose.

4. Acetyl CoA in the cytoplasm will also go on to synthesize cholesterol.

Altogether, the functions of acetyl CoA in the body is diverse and multi functional. The cells in other parts of the body do most of these functions but the ketone bodies formed in the liver creates a large amount of ketone bodies that are transported elsewhere.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

This is what is referred to as peer-reviewing. To gain veracity for her results, the fellow scientist replicates the experiment under the same parameters that she did and determines if the same results are achieved, If so, the results and experiment gain veracity and can be quoted on other scientific journals. For the experiment to be replicated, it needs to be clearly defined in the report, a requirement for all scientific reports.

Based on the model explain whether the molecules shown crossing the membrane require energy to do so
Svetach [21]

Answer:

As the diagram is not given, hence let's generally describe the movement of molecules along the cell membrane.

Molecules can either pass through the cell without using energy through the process of passive transport. An example includes molecules of oxygen.

Molecules which are large and un-polar cannot move through the cell membrane easily. These molecules will require energy to move through the cell membrane. These molecules might move in with the help of the carrier or facilitated proteins. Examples include molecules of glucose.
