Answer:
Explanation:
Los alelos son formas alternas de un gen, que difieren en secuencia o función. Toda característica genéticamente determinada depende de la acción de cuando menos un par de genes homólogos, que se denominan alelos.
Protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) catalyzes a reaction which yields products that regulate cell division; consequently, PP1 is a possible drug target to treat certain types of cancers. The PP1 enzyme cata- lyzes the hydrolysis of a phosphate group from myelin basic protein (MBP). The reaction is shown below:
PP1 MBP-phosphate-→ MBP+P,

Given the loss of farming jobs projected in the near future, distinguish at least two factors in a decision one might make to enter the field.
i cant process this lol no matter how much tiems read it
Answer:
this is the suggested answer
Explanation:
A correct answer will discuss two factors from among the following: one factor is despite the projected loss in farming jobs, these jobs are still essential and may still provide for a lucrative and successful career given that the median income level that is significantly higher than the national average. Another factor is the wide variety of careers in this general field, so the information on declining career outlook could be misleading, depending what specific career one is looking into. Another factor is the several training programs available to benefit those looking to enter this field, which can contribute to success.
Which of the following is an example of the endocrine system maintaining homeostasis? (3 points)
-Detecting a pain stimulus and sending a signal to the spinal cord to perform an automatic response
-Discharging an excessive amount of hormones in the blood and not sending a signal to stop production
-Sending a message to the pituitary gland to start producing a hormone when the levels in the body are too low
-Using sense organs to get information about the outside world and direct an appropriate body response release
Answer:
-Discharging an excessive amount of hormones in the blood and not sending a signal to stop production
Explanation:
Endocrine system is regulated by negative feedback mechanisms that work to maintain homeostasis.
Concentration of hormones, and how they effect other body systems, are controlled in this manner.
For instance, the blood glucose regulation is controlled by insulin and glucagon, hormones produced by the pancreas.

Indicate whether each statement is true or false by writing true or false in each blank. true Both ferns and flowering plants produce spores at some point in their life cycles. false Only ferns have a gametophyte as part of their life cycle. Only flowering plants produce pollen grains. true Both a tree and a large fern plant are diploid sporophytes.
Answer:
Both ferns and flowering plants produce spores at some point in their life cycles. True
Only ferns have a gametophyte as part of their life cycle. False.
Only flowering plants produce pollen grains. true
Both a tree and a large fern plant are diploid sporophytes. True
Explanation:
Yes, both ferns and flowering plants produce spores in their life cycles. In fern plant, it produce spores on the underside of the leaves whereas in flowering plant, there are two types of spores such as microspores and megaspores. Both ferns and flowering plants have gametophyte as part of their life cycle. Flowering plants produce pollen grains whereas non-flowering plants produce spores to continue their generation. Both tree and large fern plants having diploid sporophytes which is a necessary part of their life cycle.

which of the following is an example of a complementary base pair in DNA?
a. A-G
b. T-C
c. A-U
d. C-G
Answer: d. C-G
Explanation:
DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid is a structure which is common in every living organism. The two strands of the DNA are held together by base complementarity between the nitrogenous bases these bases are held by hydrogen bonding. Adenine always pairs with thymine by a triple hydrogen bonding and cytosine is always forms a pair with that of guanine by a double hydrogen bonding. So, in this given situation cytosine or C will show complementarity with that of guanine or G in a DNA structure helping in linking the two strands of DNA to form a single integrated double helical structure.
Answer: D.c-g
Explanation:
The aorta carries blood away from the heart and eventually branches into a large number of capillaries that distribute the blood to various body organs. If for an average person, the aorta has a radius of 1.2 cm and blood travels through it at a speed of 42 cm/s and the capillaries have an average radius of 5.0 10-4 cm and blood travels through them at a speed of 0.005 cm/s, determine the approximate number of capillaries in the human body.
Answer:
There are approximately 5 × 10¹⁰ capillaries in the human body
Explanation:
The motion of a fluid is such that the mass of the fluid flowing remains constant. This is known as the principle of conservation of mass in liquid flow.
The mass flow rate is the mass that passes a given point per unit time. According to the principle of conservation of mass, the flow rates at any two points must be equal, as long as no fluid is being added or taken away.
The principle gives rise tonthe continuity equation which is given below:
ρ₁A₁v₁ = ρ₂A₂v₂
Where ρ is density of fluid, A is internal area of the vessel or pipe the fluid is flowing through, v is velocity of the fluid
Since the density of blood is constant, the continuity equation above reduces to:
A₁v₁ = nA₂v₂
where A₁ is the area of the aorta, v₁ is velocity of bloodmin the aorta, n is number of capillaries, A₂ area of capillary, v₂ is velocity of blood in the capillary.
n = A₁v₁/A₂v₂
n = πr₁² × v₁ / πr₂² × v₂ where r₁ is radius of aorta and r₂ is radius of capillaries
n = (22/7 × 1.2² × 42) / (22/7 × 0.0005² × 0.005)
n = 4.8384 × 10¹⁰capillaries
Therefore, there are approximately 5 × 10¹⁰ capillaries in the human body

critically discuss the transport mechanisms across the membrane
Diffusion, osmosis and active transport.
Explanation:
. Diffusion is the movement of substances from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration across the membrane.
.Osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a hypotonic solution to a hypertonic solution across the membrane.
.Active transport is the movement of substances from a region of low concentration to a region of high concentration across the membrane with the utilization of energy.

Explanation:
Scientists analyzed data collected over a period of years in a game reserve in South Africa to test the hypothesis that competition with lions limits the abundance of leopards in the same community. The game reserve encompasses a variety of habitats, from open grassland to wooded areas around rivers and streams. It contains most of the indigenous mammal species and an adequate availability of their prey. For the most part, the leopards and lions show similar habitat preferences in the reserve.
The mass of the average lion is about three times that of the average leopard. The scientists analyzed several factors that might influence the abundance of each population, including the sizes of the animals preyed on by each species
Size of Prey Animal Percent of Leopards’ Prey (±2SEx¯) Percent of Lions’ Prey (±2SEx¯)
Small 34 ± 2 3 ± 1
Medium 63 ± 3 23 ± 2
Large 3 ± 1 36 ± 4
Very large 0 38 ± 3
Because competition with lions might affect the population size of the leopards, the scientists also analyzed data on the lion and leopard population sizes in the game reserve (Figure 1).
Required:
Describe what scientists mean when they refer to an ecological community such as that shared by the leopards and lions.
Answer:
The correct answer would be - these are the ecological community that shows the interspecific competition.
Explanation:
In this ecological community, both predators lion and leopards are living together and by the given data and information it is evident that they both share the same habitat and they both depend on the same prey for their food.
This cause competition between both lion and leopard for food and habitat. Such competition or interaction is referred to as the interspecific competitions negatively impacted by the presence of the other because they will have less food.
Answer
An ecological community refers to all of the interacting populations in a defined habitat.
Explanation:
see above
