He demonstrated that SCD and sickle cell trait were due to the presence of abnormal 8-globin polypeptides in red blood cells. He demonstrated that the electrophhoretic mobility of B-globin from patients with SCD was different from that of healthy individuals. He demonstrated that both parents of multiple patients with SCD had low levels of sickled red blood cells. He hypothesized that SCD was a recessive trait and that the parents of patients with SCD would be heterozygous carriers. He demonstrated that the difference between B-globin polypeptides in individuals who were healthy and those with SCD is an amino acid substitution. He performed a peptide fingerprint analysis on B-globin from individuals with 84 84 and 89 88, which identified the segment of B-globin that was changed by the BS mutation.

A student is developing a model to show how proteins are synthesized in animal cells. Which organelles should the student includ
Montano1993 [528]

He must include A. Ribosomes, B. Endoplasmic reticulum and C. Golgi apparatus organelles in the model.

The ribosomes are organelles that are responsible for protein translation and are composed of rRNA and proteins. The rough endoplasmic recticulum synthesizes the protiens and the Golgi apparatus collects and dispatches protein products received from the endoplasmic reticulum. Proteins synthesized in the endoplasmic recticulum are transported into vesicles, which then fuse with the Golgi apparatus and further transported to their destination.

In direct calorimetry, a person is placed in a large, water-insulated chamber. The chamber is kept at a constant temperature. Wh
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Although direct calorimetry is considered to be the most precise technique for the measurement of metabolic rate, construction of such a chamber that is large enough for doing exercise physiology research (or any research for that matter) is extremely expensive and not at all mobile.

Explanation:

Direct calorimetry measures the heat production of an individual, in calories, when placed in an insulated chamber where the heat is transferred to surrounding water. This is a very accurate method of measuring energy expenditure.

<h2>Savanna & tropical rainforest</h2>

Explanation:

  • Savanna is a grassland biome which is found South America .it is a type of natural biome which is changes during seasonal pattern for examples- elephants,cheetahs, wildebeest
  • It is here and there found in mild atmospheres, for the most part in zones that are transitional zones among grassland and forests.
  • Tropical rainforests are forests in the tropics that get more than 100 crawls of precipitation every year.
  • This unbelievable species extravagance is expected to a great extent to the blend of a tropical atmosphere and high, all year precipitation, which gives ideal developing conditions to the biggest number of plant species.
  • The warm, wet conditions in the tropical rainforest cause quick disintegration of any waste, and on the grounds that daylight and water are abundant, any supplements discharged into the dirt are quickly utilized by the quickly developing vegetation, leaving the dirt incredibly poor thinking about the high efficiency of the biome as long as the backwoods stays flawless, supplements will rapidly burn through the environment.
