Marat540 [252]

When applying rigid-body mechanics to the study of human beings, the assumption made is Option B.The body does not deform by bending, stretching, or compressing.

<u>Explanation</u>:  

Rigid body mechanics is a body in which the gap between any two points will be constant in time, despite of external forces. The body cannot be deformed at any circumstances be it under application of any force. The forces acting over the body gets divided into two groups one is external, which shows the action of different bodies on the rigid body under force and internal force that binds the body together making it rigid. Body changes its motion only in case of pull against some external object.

Give two reasons why dna evidence analysis is an imperfect science
Virty [35]

Answer:

DNA samples might be planted and it is possible to synthesize a nucleotide sequence to incriminate a person

Explanation:

In a criminal case, DNA evidence may be considered to be fraudulent because DNA samples might be planted around the crime scene. Moreover, specific genomic profiles of an individual stored in the database can be used to manufacture a DNA sample matching this profile without the necessity to obtain tissues of the person. In consequence, DNA evidence may be considered to be imperfect. Nonetheless, it is important to highlight that DNA evidence is one of the most important modern advances used during criminal trials, and it has proven to be a very useful (and effective) tool available in law enforcement.

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

The correct option is A. Steroid hormones exert their action by entering the nucleus of a cell and initiating or altering the expression of a gene.

Explanation:

Steroid hormones are derived from cholesterol and regulate multiple biological processes. All steroid hormones exert their action by crossing the plasma membrane and by binding with their respective intracellular receptors. They stimulate cell growth in a very different way, their lipophilic nature gives them the ability to cross lipid barriers, so, without the need for extracellular signals, these hormones can easily enter the cell, cross the cytoplasm and reach the nucleus. There they bind to specific receptors that are associated with DNA promoter regions, modifying their structure and promoting the expression of the genes under their control.
