I believe the primary determinant of basal metabolic rate is the Lean Body Mass. Basal metabolic is the rate of energy expenditure per unit time by animals at rest. It comprises the processes that the body requires to function. It is the amount of energy per unit time that a person need to keep the body operational at a state of rest.

Hepatitis C is a virus that attacks the liver and can cause liver disease. Liver disease has been linked to a reduction in album
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

a) Ribosomes

b) Please find the justification for the answer in (a) below.

Explanation:

According to this question, Hepatitis C is a virus that causes liver disease by attacking the liver. However, a REDUCTION IN ALBUMIN, which is a protein that regulates oncotic pressure of blood in humans- a process necessary for the regulation of fluids in vessels of the body and tissue repair, has been found to have to do with liver disease.

Since ALBUMIN is a protein produced by the liver, which when diseased causes a reduction to the blood-albumin level, the organelle in liver cells that is most likely being affected by hepatitis C is the RIBOSOME. This is because the RIBOSOME is the organelle/site for PROTEIN SYNTHESIS in any cell. Hence, the ribosome organelle of the liver cells are responsible for synthesis of Albumin protein.

Hence, a diseased liver due to attack by Hepatitis C virus means an attack on the RIBOSOMES of the liver cells producing the protein.

What type of muscle assists an agonist by causing a like movement or by stabilizing a joint over which an agonist acts? a synerg
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-a synergist

Explanation:

In the musculoskeletal system, the muscles to produce a movement work in group or pairs like hamstrings and quadriceps or biceps or triceps.  The muscles which work is known as an agonist or prime mover.

The muscle which helps prime mover by moving in the same direction and at the same time is known as synergists. The synergists produce a similar motion as the prime mover and also stabilizes the joints which hold the position for smooth movement of agonist.

Thus, synergist is the correct answer.

The aquatic plant Elodea is commonly used to study photosynthesis. You put some Elodea in a test tube, shine light on the plant,
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

The photosynthetic rate refers to a determination of maximum rate at which leaves possess the tendency to fix carbon at the time of photosynthesis. The simple way by which the photosynthetic rate can be determined is by measuring the concentration of carbon dioxide produced.  

It is known that the concentration of carbon dioxide, light intensity, and temperature are the three main elements, which affect photosynthesis. The enhanced concentration of carbon dioxide and higher light intensity results in higher photosynthetic rates.  

In the given case where Elodea is used to study photosynthesis, it can be seen that at high light intensities, the concentration of bubbles increases as there is an elevation in the concentration of carbon dioxide.

How are histone modification enzymes (such as HATs) and chromatin remodeling complexes recruited to unmodified chromatin, and ho
kiruha [24]

Answer:

A histone modification mechanism proliferate through a process that includes post translational modification procedure. The methylation, acetylation as well as ubiquitylation are one of the main modifiers that help in activation of silent genes and ultimately these covalently bonded histone modifiers help in regulating chromatin. The PTM has a main role in altering histone structure by these modifier's recruitment....
