Genetic heterogeneity of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: Implications for clinical practice and research.

Biology
1 answer:
REY [17]2 years ago
3 0

Clinical variability is being unravelled by genetic insights into the biology of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), which may be a factor in subpar clinical trial outcomes and, consequently, a dearth of viable medicines.

<h3>What is Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis ?</h3>

The condition known as ALS, also known as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord and results in loss of muscle control. After the baseball star who was found to have ALS, ALS is frequently referred to as Lou Gehrig's disease.

  • Scientists do not yet understand the cause of ALS or why some people develop the disease while others do not. However, research indicates that the onset of ALS and the degradation of motor neurons are influenced by both heredity and the environment.

Which of the following is an example of direct economic value of biodiversity?
WITCHER [35]

Answer: detoxify and decompose waste

Explanation:

Billions of tonnes of organic waste is processed every year by earth’s decomposing organisms. Industrial waste including detergents, oils, acids and paper are also detoxified and decomposed by the activities of living things. Well you could say that bacteria, algae and worms break down organic materials and release essential nutrients to plants. The Nitrogen Cycle is a good example. And there are many flowering plants rely on the activities of various animal species – bees, butterflies, bats and birds to help them reproduce through the transportation of pollen. More than one third of humanity’s food crops depend on this process of natural pollination.

And if Crop pests are controlled by organisms such as insects, birds and fungi, which are a much better form of pesticide than chemical pesticides that can harm plant and water sources yes your answer is detoxify and decompose waste. (:

Which of the following shows an unsaturated fatty acid?
astra-53 [7]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A long hydrocarbon chain that consists a terminal carboxylic group is known as a fatty acid.

An unsaturated fatty acid consists a double bond within the fatty acid chain. If a fatty acid contains more than one double bond then it is known as polyunsaturated fatty acid.

For example, oelic acid has chemical formula C_{18}H_{34}O_{2} is an unsaturated fatty acid.

Therefore, we can conclude that option (c) represents an unsaturated fatty acid.

A sample of DNA is collected from an organism. It is analyzed and determined that 20% of the DNA is made up of the base adenine.
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

Thymine: 20%

Guanine: 30%

Cytosine: 30%

Explanation:

According to Chargaff's rule which states that the purine residues are equal to the pyrimidines residue in DNA sample which means A+G = T+C where A is adenine, G is guanine, C is cytosine and T is thymine. It is also known that A is always equal to T and C is equal to G.

So, A+G+T+C = 100

20+20+G+C

100-40 = G+C

60= G+C

as we know G is equal to C similarly A is equal to T

Thus, G = C= 30%

    A= T= 20%
