Low-carbohydrate diets became popular in the late 1990s and were quickly proclaimed to be a fast and easy method of weight loss. The effectiveness and safety of these diets are dependent on the activity and overall health of the individual as well as the total nutritional content of the diet. However, it is true that in some cases, these diets have been effective. What metabolic effects caused by eating a low-carbohydrate diet can be linked directly to a decrease in fatty acid synthesis and an increase in fatty acid oxidation?
a. release of insulin from pancreatic's cells
b. dephosphorylation of AMPK
c. release of glucagon from pancreatic's cells
d. phosphorylation of AMPK
Answer:
c. release of glucagon from pancreatic's cells
d. phosphorylation of AMPK
Explanation:
Low-carbohydrate diets (LCDs) stimulate the secretion of glucagon by a decrease in the blood glucose concentration. Glucagon is a key hormone secreted by pancreatic cells in the same way as insulin but in an opposite way. This hormone (glucagon) prevents glucose accumulation as hepatic glycogen, while insulin helps to the accumulation of glucose in the liver as glycogen, thereby acting to reduce hepatic glucose output. Moreover, the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a kinase protein that mediates the phosphorylation and inhibition of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) in order to reduce the synthesis of malonyl-CoA, a key molecule that regulates myocardial fatty acid oxidation.
Simple organisms usually make exact copies of themselves when they reproduce. What do we call this type of reproduction?

One of the first astronomers to use a telescope was Galileo. Using his telescope he discovered that Jupiter had four moons and each night, the four moons, seen as points of light, appeared to change positions slightly. This observation gave further evidence for what? All BUT ONE could apply.
Answer:
B. The planets vary in size and composition.
Explanation:
Galileo was an Italian scientist and he was the first person to use a telescope in the field of astronomy. Although, the first telescope was invented by Sir Isaac Newton.
A telescope can be defined as an optical instrument or device which comprises of a curved mirror and lenses used for viewing distant objects i.e objects that are very far away such as stars and other planetary bodies.

Using his telescope he discovered that Jupiter had four moons and each night, the four moons, seen as points of light, appeared to change positions slightly. Therefore, this observation gave further evidence that the planets vary in size and composition. The slight change in the position of the moon indicate that planetary bodies have a variation in size and matter (constituent elements) that make them up.

For aerobic respiration, a variety of substances must be in a state of influx across the inner membrane. Assuming a brain cell in which glucose is the sole energy source, indicate for each of the following substances whether you would expect a net flux across the membrane and if so, how many molecules will move in which direction per molecule of glucose catabolized.
- electrons
-pyruvate
-oxygen
-ATP
-ADP
-Acetyl CoA
-Glyceral-3-phosphate
-NADH
-FADH2
-Oxaloacetate
-Water
-Protons
Answer:
electrons inflow
pyurvate inflow
oxygen inflow
ATP Outflow
ADP Inflow
Acetyl CoA no net change
Gluceral-3-phosphate no net flow
NADF inflow
FADH2 outflow
Oxaloacetate no net flow
water outflow
proton outflow
Explanation:
Aerobic respiration is the process in which cell get oxygen from within. There is no inflow of oxygen and the movement is minimum. The membrane covering the cell releases the excess oxygen if the initial storage is more than the requirement. This is in the form of outflow in ATP.

why is the moon invisible from earth during a new moon science
Answer:
Explanation:
During the New Moon the far side of the Moon is illuminated by the Sun, while the side that faces the Earth lies in darkness so the Moon is invisible. As the Moon follows its path from the New Moon position more and more of the Earth-facing side becomes illuminated resulting in the “waxing” phases.
How is energy stored when ADP is converted to ATP?
Answer:
Energy is stored in the bonds between the phosphate groups (PO4-) of the ATP molecule. When ATP is broken down into ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and inorganic phosphate, energy is released. When ADP and inorganic phosphate are joined to form ATP, energy is stored.

which of the following is not a condition that must be made for hardy-weinberg equilibrium 1.no mutation 2.no migration 3.domunant alleles nore frequent than recessive allels 4.large population 5. no natural selection guy please answer this one
Answer:
3.dominant alleles more frequent than recessive alleles
Explanation:
To achieve hard-Weinberg equilibrium, certain conditions must be made.
These conditions are:
1. There is noo mutation,
2. Existence of random mating,
3. There should be no natural selection
4. There is the infinite population size
5. No migration
Hence, in this case, the correct answer is option 3, which is not a condition to be made for Hard-Weinberg equilibrium
Why bacteria generally dies in the presence of oxygen ?
Bacteria that require oxygen to grow are called "obligate aerobic bacteria". Without oxygen they generally die since these bacteria require oxygen to grow.
Their methods of energy production and respiration depend on the transfer of electrons to oxygen.

Compared to small cells, large cells have more trouble doing what
Answer:
As the cell grows, it faces some issues such as:
• Running out of the nutrients and requirement of growth factors.
• Running out of the space.
• Require appropriate gas exchange.
As compared to the smaller cells, larger cells have more issues in moving the required materials inside and excretory products outside. This is because the ratio of the surface is to volume is turning more and more unbalanced and takes much longer time for the cellular processes to take place.

What kind of mutation would occur if a sequence of DNA is changed from ATCGGCTTAACG to ATCGGCTAAACG?
Answer:
Base substitution mutation
Explanation:
Mutation is the alteration or change that occurs to the sequence of a gene caused by a mutagen (chemicals) or spontaneously-induced. Depending on how the mutation occurs, it is of different types. The mutation shown in this question is as follows:
ATCGGCTTAACG to ATCGGCTAAACG
This type of mutation is called SUBSTITUTION MUTATION. Substitution mutation is a type of mutation that involves the replacement of one or more nucleotide base by another. In this original sequence; ATCGGCTTAACG, the eight base T was replaced by base A in the sequence, hence, it is a substitution mutation.

the structure labeled A in the figure below is called the
Answer:
Centromere
Explanation:
Connects sister chromatids
The structure labelled A in the figure is a centromere.
What is a centromere?The centromere is a region of the chromosome that is constricted. The centromere plays an important role in the division of cells during both the processes of mitosis and meiosis.
The centromere is simply the region of the chromosome where the spindle fibres attach. Therefore, when the spindle fibres attach to the centromere, they pull the sister chromatics in the opposite directions of the cell during cell division.
Thus, at the end of the cell division, each of the daughter cells gets one-half of the chromosome containing identical DNA. The centromere is thought to be the middle region of the chromosome, even though it is often not in the middle. It is simply the region where the chromosomes are most constricted
The centromere separates the chromosome into the P arm and the Q arm. These are simply the names given to the short arm and the long arm of the human chromosome respectively.
