Excessive calorie intake during pregnancy can result in a fetus that has high birth weight. Pregnant women have indeed higher energy requirements but only by 300 calories daily. Eating an excessive amount of calories daily during pregnancy can lead to an increased weight gain that can result in an increased birth weight. Excessive weight gain during pregnancy can also endanger the progression of the pregnancy and the delivery of the baby.

Nutrients and waste both enter and leave cells through a process called _____.
babunello [35]
<span>Diffusion. Diffusion is when particles in a highly concentrated area spread out to an area of lower concentration. The membranes of cells are very thin, which allows diffusion of different materials to happen easily. During respiration, oxygen and glucose concentration in the cell is lower than in the surrounding blood. This causes oxygen and glucose to move into the cell via diffusion. Carbon dioxide is produced inside the cell and this makes the concentration of CO2 higher in the cell than in the blood, so the excess diffuses out of the cell.</span>

Which of the following is an example of polygenic (quantitative) inheritance? a. the ABO blood groups b. Huntington's disease
ra1l [238]

Answer:Human height

Explanation:

Inheritance patterns are often more complex than predicted by simple mendalian genetics. When Mendel studied some phenotypic characters, like the human skin color and height, they were found to be an addictive effect of two or more genes on a single phenotypic character. These are called quantitative characters, which usually indicates polygenic inheritance.

The human height is an example of quantitative character, it is controlled by at least 3 genes having 6 alleles. 3 genes with 6 alleles from both parent can give rise to wide range of phenotypic character (heights).

Regulatory proteins typically contain sites that can bind to other proteins or small molecules. Through such binding interaction
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Regulatory sites e.g enhancers and silencers

Explanation:

Gene expression involves the synthesis of gene products usually proteins and RNA. However, a certain product might not be needed at all or in small quantity. Gene regulation mechanism is the process that makes this happen. Gene regulation is the mechanism that acts to induce or repress the expression of a gene.

Gene regulation involves controlling the rate and manner of gene expression which is achieved through a set of regulatory proteins called transcription factors. Transcription factors bind to specific regulatory nucleotide sequences and help to turn "on or off" specific genes in the DNA.

Transcription factors can either be ACTIVATORS or REPRESSORS depending on whether they boost or inhibit gene expression. The binding sites for these regulatory proteins called TRANSCRIPTION factors are the regulatory nucleotide sequences on the DNA called enhancers and silencers.
