Explain the relationship among homeostasis, defective mitochondria, and the symptoms caused by LHON.
Answer: The Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON) is caused by defective genes contained in mitochondrial DNA.
Explanation:
LHON is causes the vision loss. This occurs due to mutation in the mitochondrial DNA. The symptoms are not associated vision loss thus it is difficult to predict that which member of family was the carrier of the disease. Some people do not get completely blind. A young male is expected to develop a risk of 50% development of this disease.
Ferns often have small bumps called sori arranged in rows on their undersides. What are these structures?A) Spore capsules.
B) Seed capsules.C) Nodules containing symbiotic bacteria.D) Parasites.
Answer:
A) Spore capsules
Explanation:
Ferns produce spore capsules contained in the sporangium (plural: sporangia), a structure localized on the undersides of the leaves. Moreover, the sporangia are borne in clusters known as sori (singular sorus). The spores are single reproductive cells that, when mature, are released from the sporangium to germinate on soil and produce new ferns. In a fern sporangium, the maximum number of spores is 64, although this number depends on the species.

A researcher wishes to increase the half-life of a particular mRNA that she is transfecting into a eukaryotic cell line. How should this researcher accomplish this goal?
a. Inhibit RNA polymerase I.
b. Increase the length of the poly(A) tail of the mRNA prior to transfection.
c. Inhibit the spliceosomes in the cell.
d. Increase the length of the 5'; cap of the mRNA prior to transfection.
Answer:
b. Increase the length of the poly(A) tail of the mRNA prior to transfection.
Explanation:
Polyadenylation is the addition of a long chain of adenine (A) nucleotides at the 3' end during RNA processing. This resultant chain is known as poly(A) tail. A poly-A tail generally has a size of 100-250 residues long. The poly(A) tail increases the stability of the messenger mRNA prior to the translation by slowing down its degradation rate over time. The process of polyadenylation enables RNA transcripts to be exported from the nucleus in order to be translated by ribosomes in the cytoplasm.
compare and contrast the process of replication between the alien sample and eukaryotic life found on earth
Answer:
The answer is "Mode of replication".
Explanation:
The answer is the model for reproduction because it is the genetic reproduction implements a diffraction model, which replaces some old bases with other small colonies for each strand of the fetus, opposed to a semiconservative model of reproduction in eukaryotic cells, wherein one chromosome is completely new and one is old.
What geologic forces drive tectonic movements?
Group of answer choices
seismic movement, volcanic activity, plate tension
Earth's rotation, geothermal activity, gravitational forces
plate subduction, convergence and divergence
Earth's orbit, solar winds, electromagnetic waves
Answer:
Earth's rotation, geothermal activity, gravitational forces
Explanation:
Tectonic movements refers to movement occurring within the earth's crust.
The rotation of the earth on it's axis releases significant amounts of gravitational energy that results in deformation and movement of the earth's crust and mass redistribution of the tectonic plates.
Some of the main forces by which earth's rotation affects tectonic movements are:
Tidal friction due to the gravitational force of the Moon as well the Sun on the earth's crust; and change of the shape of the earth due to small displacements of the rotational pole with respect to the earth's crust.
Geothermal activity is caused by the transfer of heat from depth to the earth's surface. Convection currents in the mantle drive tectonic movements. Within the mantle of the earth, molten magma rises to the top while hot cold solid rock sinks to the bottom setting up a flow known as mantle convection. The rising and sinking motions of materials deform the outer surface of the earth producing earthquakes, mountain ranges, and volcanos on earth.
Two gravitational forces- slab pull and ridge push- cause tectonic movements. Slab pull occurs where gravity pulls
the edge of a cold, dense plate into the asthenosphere due to its weight dragging the entire rigid plate along.
Ridge push occurs when material from a mid-ocean ridge when cooled and thus becoming denser, slides down a raised but weaker asthenosphere due to gravity and push outwards on the lithosphere farther away from the ridges, allowing hot magma from the mantle to flow upwards again.
Answer:
Earth's rotation, geothermal activity, gravitational forces

Complete the following sentence.
If caregivers want to encourage infants between four and six months old to learn, they can provide _ books.
Answer:
they can provide reading or education books(numbers, colors, shapes, etc)
Explanation:
Answer: touch-and-feel
Explanation:
See E's section on crawling, standing up, working on walking, and coordinating hand and eye (subsection: eye-hand coordination):
"Textures are highly interesting to infants. By exploring different textures such as furry and soft versus slippery and cold, a baby is being stimulated and is learning about the world. Touch-and-feel books are very useful at this age [4-6 months], as are a wide variety of toys with different textures, such as plush stuffed animal toys and smooth building blocks."
Compare the wind speeds of the edge of a hurricane on earth and the edge of the great red spot on jupiter what is your conclusion
Answer:
Jupiter is approximately 318 times bigger than the earth. So, it is expected that its hurricanes would be very massive as well.
Explanation:
A hurricane is a tropical cyclone, a storm with a very violent wind. It is labeled a cyclone because of its cyclic nature.
The Great Red Spot of Jupiter is a giant storm about twice as large as Earth, which in its southern hemisphere orbits the globe. This at least twice the speed of the most dangerous and most destructive hurricanes on Earth, which can produce wind speeds of approximately 280 km/h.
So it means that if there were to be a great red 'jupiterian' spot on earth it would blow the earth away.

A DNA sequence that is responsible for the initiation of transcription in a cell-type specific manner is:_____.
Answer:
Promoter.
Explanation:
It is promoter because Promoter is a DNA sequence where's the gene transcription begins. It is the
DNA sequence which RNA polymerase binds or join to
so as to begin transcriptionn of a gene . It is a region where the regulatory elements i.e protein will bind to and the Promoter sequences are found directly upstream or at the end of 5' of the transcription initiation site. This can also encode RNA such as mRNA, trans and so on.
The retinohypothalamic path consists of a special population of retinal ganglion cells that have their own photopigment, called:
Answer:
melanopsin
Explanation:
this note might help you :
The retinohypothalamic tract (RHT) is a photic neural input pathway involved in the circadian rhythms of mammals. The origin of the retinohypothalamic tract is the intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGC), which contain the photopigment melanopsin. The axons of the ipRGCs belonging to the retinohypothalamic tract project directly, monosynaptically, to the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) via the optic nerve and the optic chiasm. The suprachiasmatic nuclei receive and interpret information on environmental light, dark and day length, important in the entrainment of the "body clock". They can coordinate peripheral "clocks" and direct the pineal gland to secrete the hormone melatonin.
information about melanopsin : Melanopsin is a type of photopigment belonging to a larger family of light-sensitive retinal proteins called opsins and encoded by the gene Opn4.[5] In the mammalian retina, there are two additional categories of opsins, both involved in the formation of visual images: rhodopsin and photopsin (types I, II, and III) in the rod and cone photoreceptor cells, respectively.
Which of the following is true of integral membrane proteins?
A. They lack tertiary structure
B. They serve only a structural role in membranes
C. They are loosely bound to the surface bilayer
D. They are usually transmembrane proteins
E. They are not mobile within the bilayer
Answer:
D. They are usually transmembrane proteins
Explanation:
Membranes are made up of a phospholipid bilayer, cholesterol and various mimbrane proteins. The lipids consist of outward facing hydrophilic heads and inwards facing hydrophobic tails. Cholesterol molecules help maintain membrane fluidity.
Transmembrane proteins play an important role. These help to transport various molecules and ions like glucose, and Na+ across the selectively permeable bilayer. These are permanently embedded within the membrane as integral membrane proteins, and do not move around.
Identify the locations within the human body for Hyaline, Elastic and Fibrocartilage.
Answer:
A flexible connective tissue, known as cartilage varies from bones in many ways, its microcomposition is less developed in comparison to the bone and is avascular. It is not supplied with nerves and thus depends upon the process of diffusion to attain nutrients. The three kinds of cartilage are fibrous, hyaline, and elastic.
Of these the most widespread kind is the hyaline cartilage, it looks like glass. It is witnessed in embryos, where the formation of bone takes place as hyaline cartilage, which ossifies later. In adults, it is found on the tips of the ribs, on the articular surfaces of the long bones, the parts of the skull, and the rings of the trachea.
Fibrous cartilage is witnessed in the pubic symphysis and intervertebral discs and exhibits many collagen fibers.
Elastic cartilage is witnessed in the internal support of the external ear and the epiglottis and is yellow, springy, and elastic in characteristics.

OC a reward; something achieved
O D. a woman's name
Answer: B
Explanation:
Grace is the term Christians use to describe God's unconditional love for everyone, whether or not they have behaved as he wants them to. Because God's love is thought to bring redemption , some Christians believe that salvation does not need to be earned through good works.
A small percentage of the body’s iron supply circulates freely in the blood, bound to a protein called transferrin. Transferrin binds to specific proteins on the surfaces of a cell's plasma membrane. The cell then ingests the transferrin by forming a pit, which becomes a vesicle. Which of the following BEST describes how transferrin is transported across the plasma membrane? A. exocytosis B. pinocytosis C. phagocytosis D. receptor-mediated endocytosis
Answer:
What best describes how transferrin is transported through the erythrocyte plasma membrane is receptor-mediated endocytosis.
Explanation:
The incorporation of transferrin across the erythrocyte membrane depends on a transferrin receptor expressed on the surface of the membrane. The specific receptor recognizes the presence of iron-charged transferrin, transferin diferrica, incorporating it into the cell by endocytosis. Once in the cytoplasm, the iron is dissociated from the transferrin.
Free transferrin is called apotransferrin. The transferrin receptor has a high affinity for transferrin di-ferrica, which facilitates its incorporation by endocytosis, and the release of apotransferrin into the extracellular space.
The other options are not correct because:
A. Exocytosis implies the exit of substances from the cell.
B. Pinocytosis involves the invagination of the membrane to incorporate soluble substances into the cell.
C. Phagocytosis is the incorporation of solid substances by invagination of the membrane.
Assume new techniques are developed with permit removing from a cell any desired parts or materials without killing the cell. If the centrioles were removed from a cell, the cell would then not have:_______
a. Chromosomes
b. Mitochondria
c. Spindle fibers
d. Ribosomes
Answer:
c. Spindle fibers
Explanation:
In eukaryotic cells, the centrioles are small sets of microtubules composed of tubulin proteins. Moreover, in animal cells, a centrosome is an organelle localized near the nucleus which contains a pair of centrioles. These organelles (centrosomes) are referred to as microtubule-organizing centers. During Anaphase, centrioles move to opposite sides in the cell in order to organize the spindle fibers and separate the chromosomes during cell division.
