In the 18th century, a young boy suffered from a skin condition that included thickening of the skin and the formation of loose

spines that were periodically sloughed off. This "porcupine man" married and had six sons, all of whom had the same condition. He also had several daughters, all of whom were unaffected. What might you theorize about the location of the abnormal gene?

What might happen if you make a hole using a pointed object to any of the two small<br> balloons?
luda_lava [24]

Answer:If the balloons are filled with air all of the air will try and escape from the balloon out of the hole but if the balloon is filled very tightly with air it will burst because there is too much pressure trying to escape such a small hole so it goes PoP!

Explanation:

Not researched this answer was from common knowledge so if you have a correction or better answer please inform me I will be happy to learn more.

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.

Using the data, choose one of the 3 possible problems below. Justify your choice by writing a hypothesis to explain how it has s
amm1812

Answer:

Low Enzyme Production is the reason for no breaking down of food.

Explanation:

If the digestion of food did not occur so it means that there is low enzyme production because enzymes are responsible for the breaking down of food substances into simpler ones in order to absorb by the cells for the generation of energy in the form of ATP. So we can conclude that low enzyme production is the only reason for the stopping of breaking down or digestion of food.

If 33 of the 300,000 people in Corpus Christi, TX, have PKU, how many people are carriers (heterozygous) for PKU?
miv72 [106K]
The number of people who are carriers (heterozygous) for PKU if there are 33 of the 300,000 people in Corpus Christi, TX, have PKU is 15. Heterozygous or also called as zygosity refers to having the unlike genes or different genes.
