Hi

Part of all organic compounds

  • <u>Carbon</u>

Carbon is the main component of organic compounds infact it is the part of definition of organic compounds that they are carbon based such as alcohols, carboxylic acid, glucose and sucrose

Component of bones and found in cell membranes

  • <u>Phosphorus</u>

Phosphorus, in the form of  phosphate is an important component of cellular membrane,bones and other high-energy nucleic acids and phosphate compounds. Therefore it has an important role in as extracellular and intracellular constituent.

Important component of proteins, like carbon

  • <u>Nitrogen</u>

Proteins play a major role in our body i form of enzymes which are an integral part of all the chemical reactions occurring in the body. An important component of every protein of the world is Nitrogen because it is a part of basic structure of amino acids.

Universal solvent

  • <u>Water</u>

Water is a universal solvent as it can dissolve almost anything.

Hope it helps!

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

sympathetic

Explanation:

The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system is responsible for preparing the body under stress or emergency conditions such as being terrified by a large groundhog. The neurons of the sympathetic nervous system trigger an increase in heart rate, breathing rate to increase the oxygen supply needed by body cells under stress conditions.

Other physiological responses generated by the sympathetic nervous system under stress conditions are dilation of the pupil, increased blood pressure, etc. The sympathetic nervous system generates these responses by stimulating the release of stress hormone from the adrenal medulla. These responses are together called fight or flight response.

Think and discuss: In this Gizmo, only one crossover is allowed in each segment. In reality, crossovers can occur at almost any
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Crossing over and random distribution of chromosome will lead to random assortment of new combinations of alleles on the same chromosome.

Explanation:

Crossing can be defined as the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes.

Variation can occur when the sister chromatids have mixture of alleles ( paternal).

This leads to genetic diversity.

This genetic variation is the bedrock and foundation of evolution. This bring about differences in different organisms and when organism differs genetically, they will have different level of adaptability and survival instincts. The eventual result of this is survival of the fittest.

n the Meselson-Stahl DNA replication experiment, if the cells were first grown for many generations in 15N containing media, and
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

DNA replication is a semi-conservative process. It means that after DNA replication, the newly formed DNA molecules have one parental strand and one newly formed strand. The cells in the experiment have DNA with 15N. After one round of DNA replication, each DNA molecule would have one parental DNA strand with 15N and one newly formed DNA strand with 14N.

However, after the second round of DNA replication, each hybrid DNA with strand having 15N and the other with 14N would be unwound. The parental heavy DNA strands would be present in the 50% of the newly formed DNA while the rest 50% of DNA molecules would have both strands with 14N (both light strands).
