Cellular processes are carried out by many different types of molecules, mostly proteins. The function of each protein molecule
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

The protein specific sequence also known as the primary sequence is determined by the sequence of its amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. The sequences of amino acids determine the proteins that will eventually be synthesized. This proteins becomes functional when correct folding pattern/ native conformation of the protein occurs which determines the shape of the proteins. peptide bonds hold the amino acid sequences together, hydrogen bonds involving components of the peptide bonds allow for the existence of the secondary structure either the alpha helix or the beta pleated sheets and then disulphide bonds and other type of bonds helps in the folding of the protein to become a functional protein.

Which of the following is most consistent with homeostasis? Select one: a. As blood pressure falls, blood flow to cardiac (heart
alex41 [277]

Answer:

Both C and E are reasonable answers.

Explanation:

Homeostasis describes the body's ability to maintain a stable equilibirum. In other words, if the body experiences a stress, it will generate a response that works to counteract that stress and restore itself to how it was prior to the stress.

A. This describes a cause and effect (BP down --> venous return down). It does not describe an active physiological response to counteract the BP drop such as an increase in heart rate. Not homeostasis.

B. Again, a cause and effect is described. Blood vessel walls becoming thinner is not a response to counteract increased BP. Not homeostasis.

C. Here a response to a stress is described. Men are drinking more water. The body responds by getting rid of that water, restoring the body to its former state. This describes homeostasis.

D. This sounds like homeostasis, but it's actually the opposite of what happens. Dilation of peripheral blood vessels is a way for the body to get rid of heat. This is the opposite of what you would want if the body got colder - it would make the stress worse, which is the opposite of homeostasis. In actuality the response to cold temperature is constriction of blood vessels to preserve heat.

E. This deescribes homeostasis. The stress is increased glucose. The body's response to manage it is to release insulin, which helps remove the glucose from circulation.

Skin color in a certain species of fish is inherited by a single gene with four different alleles. How many different types of g
k0ka [10]

Answer:

4

Explanation:

According to Mendel's law of purity of gametes, each gamete contains single allele for a gene. The alleles of a gene segregate during gamete formation and each gamete has one allele for a gene irrespective of the total number of alleles for a gene.  

If the gene for skin color in a fish species has four alleles, an individuals fish would have only two alleles which in turn would segregate during gamete formation.

Since there are four different alleles of the gene (let's assume a,b,c, and d), total possible gametes produced by this organism will be = 4. A gamete can have one of the total 4 alleles making total 4 types of the gametes each with a or b or c or d allele.

Which sugar is present in the nucleic acid that is represented in the diagram?
salantis [7]
<span>In order to determine the sugar molecule associated with the nucleic acid, we must first determine if the nucleic acid is a deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA) molecule or a ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecule. We can determine this by looking at the bases in the molecule, as DNA has thymine and RNA has uracil. After the type of molecule is determined, the nature of the sugar is given by the name. DNA has deoxyribose and RNA has ribose</span>
