Answer:
RBCs' production is controlled by erythropoietin.
Mature RBCs are released into the bloodstream after approximately seven days RBCs are produced in the bone marrow
Explanation:
The hormone erythropoietin is produced and released in the bloodstream by peritubular interstitial cells of kidneys. The function of erythropoietin is to increase the number of the precursors of red blood cells and thereby to stimulate the production of red blood cells in the bone marrow. When the oxygen supply to body cells is reduced, the hormone erythropoietin stimulates the development of proerythroblasts into reticulocytes and thereby increases the RBC production.
RBCs are produced by the process of erythropoiesis and take about seven days to become mature and to be released in circulation to serve the function of oxygen delivery. The maturation of RBCs also includes the loss of most of the organelles such as the nucleus and mitochondria to accommodate hemoglobin protein. The life span of circulating RBCs is about 100-120 days.
Prion disease is a protein that can affect the brains protein. People can get it through family history or its passed on through the genes, those who ate a cow infected by mud cow disease and infections from medical equipment. I hoped this helped.
Hello. This question is incomplete. Also, you forgot to show the flowchart. The flowchart is attached below and the full question is:
The flowchart below shows the three generations of a cross between a pea plant that has yellow pods and a pea plant that has green pods. Green pods are the dominant trait. The flowchart is missing the labels that describe the traits.
In which squares should the phrase “Green pods” appear?
1.A and D 2.B and E 3.A,C and D 4.A,B,C,D and E
Answer:
3.A,C and D
Explanation:
As shown in the question above, the flowchart shows the crossing of a pea plant with dominant features (green pods - AA) and a pea plant with recessive features (yellow features - aa). The crossing between plants with AA and aa alleles generates a completely Aa population, which in this case, has the dominant characteristic, that is, it has green pods. This is because the "Aa" alleles are called heterozygous and develop the dominant characteristic.
As we can see in the flowchart, the crossing between the two pea plants generated an offspring that is identified by table C, as we know this offspring has green pods and in the flowchart it is represented by a grayish rectangle. Therefore, we can say that the other gray rectangles represent pea plants with green pods, which are rectangles A, C and D.
Heritability is a measure that is used to estimate the variation of phenotypic traits (observable traits) in a given population due to the variation or changes in the genetic make up (genotype) among certain individuals. some of these traits includes color blindness, tongue rolling and curly hair among others. However, some traits such as nearsightedness are caused or influenced by the changes in the environment and therefore Heritability is not a factor to consider when dealing with such traits.
Usually in experiments, you want multiples of the same thing so the data is accurate and consistent and not just some fluke and to make sure you didn't have some major error you missed.
