Typically affects those under the age of 50 and die of Heart failure induced by aortic valvular incompetence. Vasa vasorum show hyperplastic that thickness of their walls that block the  blood flow and causes ischemia of the outer two-thirds of the aortic wall. Starved for O2/ nutrients, elastic fibers become patchy and smooth muscle cells necrose. Media scars. If the disease progresses, syphilitic aortitis leads to an aortic aneurysm.

The barley plant has seven pairs of chromosomes. For a gamete, the number of genetic combinations that are possible through inde
umka2103 [35]

1) The correct answer is: 128 combinations.

The genetic combinations that are possible through independent assortment can be calculated as 2^n; where n is the number of different chromosomes.  

So, using this formula for 7 chromosomes:

   2^7 = 128 different combinations.

2) For a zygote produced by two barley parents, the number of possible genetic combinations can be calculated as: 2^n * 2^n

So, for 7 chromosomes: 2^7 * 2^7=16384

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>
