The initial stage of atherosclerosis is characterized by accumulation beneath the endothelium of excessive amounts of ​LDL.

  • The accumulation of lipids, cholesterol, and other chemicals in and on the artery walls is known as atherosclerosis. The accumulation is known as plaque.
  • The build-up of lipids and fibrous components in the major arteries is a hallmark of the degenerative illness known as atherosclerosis. A picture of a typical artery's anatomy can be found in Foam cells, or subendothelial accumulations of cholesterol-engorged macrophages, are the earliest lesions of atherosclerosis.
  • Nitric oxide and prostacyclin are two chemicals that are produced by your endothelium. These maintain the fluid in your blood and stop it from clotting when it shouldn't. These compounds' insufficient production is a symptom of various diseases, which raises your risk of clotting.

Scientists use a standardized taxonomic system to separate organisms into hierarchical groups based on
den301095 [7]

It allows different kinds of organisms to be easily identified based on their characteristics

Explanation:

Classification is defined as the grouping of organisms based on their similarities and dissimilarities. The main aim of classification is to simplify the study of vast range of animals that exist in nature.

The scientists use a standardized method in which they follow a set of rules while studying and assigning a taxonomic rank to a newly studied organism.

The taxonomic hierarchy includes the following taxon-Kingdom, phylum,class, order, family, genus, species.

Beginning from Kingdom the percentage of similarities among the members keep on increasing while we move towards  species.

A taxonomical rank is assigned to an organism by studying the similarities of that organism with already existing members of that taxonomic group.

Since, few characters are already studied well while classifying the earlier members the study and classification of new organism becomes much simplified and easier.

For a science fair project, two students decided to repeat the Hershey and Chase experiment, with modifications. They decided to
umka21 [38]

Answer is (E) : Amino acids (and thus proteins) also have nitrogen atoms; thus, the radioactivity would not distinguish between DNA and proteins.

Let me explain you why. Hershey and Chase conducted their experiment to show what is the genetic material that passes from one generation to another generation. Is it protein or DNA? For explaining this, they allowed the virus to grow in the presence of two different radio active elements.

In one set they grew viruses in the presence of P-32 radio-active element  

In another set they grew viruses in the presence of S-35 radio active element.

The reason why they choose these two radio-active element was, phosphorus is present in DNA but not in proteins and similarly sulphur is found in proteins but not DNA.

These viruses were allowed to infect bacteria and the later was observed to be radio-actively labelled with P-32 but not S-35. This clearly showed that DNA is the genetic material which was passed from virus to bacteria.  

Now if you choose Nitrogen for labeling, it won't help you in getting any conclusion since nitrogen is present in both proteins and DNA.
