Meditation is a practice of sitting still and quiet for minutes or even hours. It has been practiced for thousands of years and

is even a part of religious practices for some people. Carefully controlled, repeated measurements of brain activity have shown that meditation does increase certain chemicals in the brain and even grows the part of the brain that helps people connect with their current surroundings and activities.
Are claims about the effects of meditation most likely scientific or pseudoscientific?

(Answer:) this is most likely to be scientific, (Explanation:) because, if you look at the question it says 'are the effects of medditadion scientific?... ect', and if you look back on your description of meditation, in the third sentence, they certainly state information based on scientific study!

Use the model to explain how celiac disease interrupts the normal transportation of energy and other nutrients from the digestiv
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

According to the model, the "villi" of small intestines is being damaged as an impact of celiac disease. Small intestines are responsible for absorption of nutrients and minerals from food, this occurs through villi, in case of damaged villi absorption is interfered, thus disturbing the digestive system. If the nutrients, minerals or vitamins are not being absorbed well by small intestines then they will be excreted out of the body and will not be transported to the blood and other areas, this would result in deficiency of minerals and vitamins  in blood that cause weakness.

Explanation:

1. What are negative effects of technology?

You're losing sleep or skipping physical activities due to technology use. It's causing you stress or anxiety, or you're noticing physical side effects, such as tension headaches, eye strain, muscle pain, or overuse injuries.

Positives:

Technology, which brings together tools to promote development, use and information exchange, has as its main objective of making tasks easier and the solving of many problems of mankind. When technology progresses and makes our lives even more convenient, we must stress how beneficial it is to our lives

Two autosomal genes, J and K, are 60 map units apart. You perform the following testcross: J K / j k x j k / j k. At what freque
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

  • J K / j k = 20%
  • j k / j k = 20%
  • J k / j k = 30%
  • j K / j k = 30%                

Explanation:

To calculate the recombination frequency, we have to know that 1% of recombinations = 1 map unit = 1cm. And that the maximum recombination frequency is always 50%.

The map unit is the distance between the pair of genes for which every 100 meiotic products, one of them results in a recombinant one.

So, en the exposed example:

  • J and K are autosomal genes
  • J and K are separated by 60 M.U.
  • 60 M.U. means that there is 60% of recombination.

Cross)             J K / j k                    x                  j k / j k

Gametes) JK  Parental                                     jk, jk, jk, jk

                jk   Parental                                  

                Jk   Recombinant                          

                 jK   Recombinant

One map unit equals 1% of recombination frequency. This means that every 100 meiotic products, one of them is a recombinant one.

1 M.U. -------------- 1% recombination

60 M.U. ------------ 60% recombination

                              30% Jk  +  30% jK

100 M.U. - 60 M.U. = 40 M.U.

40M.U.--------------40 % Parental (Not recombinant)

                            20% JK   +   20% jk

Punnet Square)           JK       jk      Jk      jK

                          jk     JK/jk   jk/jk   Jk/jk   jK/jk

J K / j k = 20%

j k / j k = 20%

J k / j k = 30%

j K / j k = 30%

Why are G-protein coupled receptors often known as 7TM receptors? A. They have 7 transmembrane β-pleated sheets. B. They have 7
Nataliya [291]

Answer: B

Explanation:

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), also known as seven-(pass)-transmembrane domain receptors, 7TM receptors, heptahelical receptors, serpentine receptor, and G protein–linked receptors (GPLR),comprises of a large protein family of receptors that discover molecules outside the cell and initiate internal signal transduction pathways and, eventually, cellular responses. They are called seven-transmembrane receptors because they pass through the cell membrane seven times
