The correct answer is A. Serotonin and norepinephrine

Explanation:

The obsessive-compulsive disorder is a mental disorder characterized by the individual experiencing constant compulsive behaviors such as repeating an action multiple times, as well as behaviors that represent obsessions such as obsessive thoughts about some situation.

Indeed, one of the most effective treatments for this mental disorder is a combination of serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors that regulate and increase the amount of serotonin and norepinephrine in the individual.

The major difference between starch, glycogen, and cellulose and their adjacent glucose subunits is the ________.
sveta [45]

Answer:

<u>Starch</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in plants and the glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,4 glycosidic linkage.

<u>Cellulose </u>is a structural component of the plant cell wall and glucose molecules are linked by beta 1,4 glycosidic linkage.

<u>Glycogen</u> is the storage form of glucose (energy) in animals and glucose molecules are linked by alpha 1,6 glycosidic linkage.

Explanation:

All of these sugars are polysaccaride sugars containing large number of glucose subunits.

Starch is a polysaccharide extracted from agricultural raw materials. It contains amylose and amylopectin. Amylose is an un-branched chain polymer of D-glucose units while amylopectin is a branched chain polymer of D-glucose units.

Glycogen is the storage form of glucose in animals, It is stored in muscles and liver and it is a branched polysaccaride.

Cellulose is the storage form of glucose in plants and leaves.

The grades of a science test are normally distributed. Thanh finds that his grade on the test has a z-score of –2.5. Which of th
Tom [10]

The right answer is Thanh's grade is 2.5 standard deviations below the mean of the test grades.

The z scores are standard deviations. If, for example, a tool returns a z score of +2.5, it means that the result is a standard deviation of 2.5.

Very high or very low (negative) z scores associated with very low p values are at the ends of the normal distribution.

In the first part of the dna isolation, you discarded the supernatant and kept the cells. however, after processing the sample w
pishuonlain [190]
<span>For the first step, you must isolate the cells from the media. The cells contain the DNA so you keep the cells and pellet. The next step would be a cell lysis which causes the cells to open and the DNA to come out. At this point you would keep the supernatant, as the pellet is the cell membrane and other parts of the cell. The chelex is to bind to transition metal ions. This would cause and DNases in the cell to become inactive because the metal ion is their cofactor. The pellet in this case would contain the chelex and the DNA would still be in the supernatant.</span>
