Transporting substances in a cell. proteins are transported either in or out of the cell.
The answer is Vitamin C otherwise known as Ascorbic acid. It is naturally present in some foods, added to others and available in dietary supplement. Fruits and vegetables are the best sources of vitam C. Citrus fruits, tomatoes and tomato juice and potatoes are major contributors of vitamin C.
Answer: Option C."hypernatremia"
Explanation:
Hypernatremia is defined as the a electrolyte problem in which sodium concentration rises to a value more than 145 mmol/L in serum.
The major symptoms of hypernatremia involves thirst, muscle twitching or spasms, and confusion.
Hypernatremia is a hyperosmolar condition caused by a decrease in total body water (TBW) against electrolyte content and several causes of hypernatremia includes intake of hypertonic fluid, salt poisoning in children, and inadequate intake of free water associated with total body sodium depletion et cetera.
Hence, the correct option is C.
Answer:
The statement suggests ability of existing DNA molecule to replicate itself by the process of DNA replication. Each strand of double helical DNA can serve as template for the synthesis of new complementary DNA strand.
Explanation:
Watson and Crick proposed the double-helical structure of DNA. Accordingly, the DNA molecule is a double helical structure in which two polynucleotide chains are held together by base pairing between the complementary bases of two chains.
There are four nitrogenous bases present in DNA: adenine and guanine (purines) and cytosine and thymine (pyrimidines). Adenine always pairs with thymine and cytosine pairs with guanine base.
According to Watson and Crick, the ability of one DNA strand to base-pair with a complementary DNA strand suggests the existence of the DNA replication process. During DNA replication, each DNA strand should serve as a template to specify the nucleotide sequence of the new DNA strand.
