As adults age, their dark adaption is slower; it takes longer to recover

their vision when going from a light to a dark area.

<h3>How does age affect dark adaptation?</h3>

  • Results indicated that during human aging there is a dramatic slowing in a rod-mediated dark adaptation that can be attributed to delayed rhodopsin regeneration.

  • Even in the absence of ocular disease, older adults have significant difficulty seeing in low light and at night.

  • The severity of this issue cannot be explained by optical changes in the aging eye, such as pupillary miosis and increased lens density, and little is known about the neural basis of this issue.

  • 94 adults between the ages of 20 and 80 had their dark adaptation functions measured in order to determine how quickly rod-mediated sensitivity recovered after being exposed to 98% bleach.

  • In order to control for macular disease, fundus photography and a grading system were used to describe macular health in subjects over the age of 49.

Fatty foods, like oils and lipids, are affected by the Bilary System which is a subsystem of the Digestive System. Bile which is produced by the liver helps with digestion of such food, hence malfunction of the liver will affect metabolism of fats.

Which category of biological agents includes agents that have some potential for dissemination as well as agents of concern for
KatRina [158]

Answer:

B) Category B

Explanation:

Centers for Disease Control and Prevention along with US Department of Homeland Security has classified biological agents into three categories based on the level of mortality, ease of spreading and the level of preparedness required to deal with them. These biological agents are mostly microorganisms which if not controlled can create a havoc on a big scale.

Category B consists of agents which have moderate potential for dissemination. These are the agents which effect food and water quality and lower down their safety levels. They moderately affect the population and mortality rate is low. However, uncontrolled they can spread and effect many people. For example, salmonella and zika.

A microbiologist analyzed chemicals obtained from an enveloped RNA virus—similar to a mumps virus—that infects monkeys. He found
aliina [53]

Answer:the correct option will be

The virus forced the monkey cell to make proteins for its envelope.

Explanation:Enveloped viruses contain nucleocapsids of either icosahedral (e.g. herpesviruses, togavirus) or helical symmetry (e.g. influenza). The outer envelope is a lipid bilayer derived from host cell membrane in which both viral glycoproteins and some host proteins are embedded.

Many enveloped viruses complete their replication cycle by forming vesicles that bud from the plasma membrane. Some viruses encode “late” (L) domain motifs that are able to hijack host proteins involved in the vacuolar protein sorting (VPS) pathway, a cellular budding process that gives rise to multi vesicular bodies and that is topologically equivalent to virus budding. Although many enveloped viruses share this mechanism, examples of viruses that require additional viral factors and viruses that appear to be independent of the VPS pathway have been identified. Alternative mechanisms for virus budding could involve other topologically similar process such as cell abscission, which occurs following cytokinesis, or virus budding could proceed spontaneously as a result of lipid microdomain accumulation of viral proteins. Further examination of novel virus-host protein interactions and characterization of other enveloped viruses for which budding requirements are currently unknown will lead to a better understanding of the cellular processes involved in virus assembly and budding.
