A couch potato eats lots of pizza, chips, and hamburgers and never exercises, and develops arteriosclerosis, which includes hard

ening of the arteries. If he were to exercise, how would his exercising blood pressure compare to that of a healthy person? How would his or her exercising total peripheral resistance compare to that of a healthy person? Explain your answers.

5 0

Answer:

The exercising blood pressure of the couch potato would be greater in comparison to that of a healthy individual because in the case of a couch potato the arterial walls are declining in radius. Due to this, there is a greater peripheral resistance because of the small radius and corresponding resistance to the flow of blood.  

A healthy individual presumably does not possess an identical accumulation of plaque as the couch potato does. Thus, their blood vessel is larger, resulting in less peripheral resistance and less resistance to the flow of blood.

If the amino acids glycine, alanine and valine were combined in one molecule, what would the molecule be called?
mario62 [17]

Answer:

A tripeptide

Explanation:

Alanine (Ala), Glycine (Gly) and Valine (Val) are amino acids, i.e., organic molecules that contain at least an amino (–NH2) and one carboxyl (–COOH) functional group. The amino acids held together by peptide bonds, which are formed by a carboxyl group of one amino acid and an amino group of another one, in order to form a peptide. Thus, a tripeptide is a peptide composed of three amino acids joined by two internal (and sometimes three) peptide bonds. In the case above described, the tripeptide formed by the binding of Glycine, Alanine, and Valine can be abbreviated as Gly-Ala-Val (i.e., in this order).

In fact, without information from the innate immune system, the adaptive response could not be mobilized. There are two types of adaptive responses: the cell-mediated immune response, which is controlled by activated T cells, and the humoral immune response, which is controlled by activated B cells and antibodies. hope this helps :D

goldenfox [79]
I think that the fact that it is a cookie mining lab it would not apply at all in the real world but the pros and cons on one hand. pros the flat toothpick will make bigger chucks come off and easier to mine,but the cons are that the flat toothpick will not be as precise as a normal toothpick and may make the cookie not usable.

this is not my answer i did some research and came up with this sorry it is so late and i hope it helped:)<span>

For the following question, match the key event of meiosis with the stages listed below.I. Prophase I V. Prophase IIII. Metaphas
Airida [17]

Answer:

B (Metaphase I)

Explanation:

Meiosis is one of the two types of cell divisions that results in 4 daughter cells (gametes) with each having half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. During meiosis, cell division occurs twice because before the separation of two halves of a duplicated chromosome called sister chromatids, there still need to be separation of homologous pairs, which is a similar but non-identical pair of chromosome received from both parents. Hence, meiosis occurs in a two step division process; meiosis I and meiosis II.

During Prophase I, which is the first stage of meiosis I, homologous chromosomes pair up side by side to form a structure called TETRAD or BIVALENT and likely undergo crossing over( when segments of homologous chromosomes get broken and refixed interchangeably).

After crossing over, the spindle fibres (from the centrosomes) begin to attach to the centromeres of each chromosomes and move them towards the center of the cell called METAPHASE PLATE. Hence, they become aligned on the equator towards either side of the pole. Each chromosome attaches to microtubules from one pole of the spindle and the two homologues of a pair bind to microtubules from opposite poles. Hence, in Metaphase I, homologous pairs, not individual chromosomes, line up at the Metaphase plate/equator for separation.

The orientation of the line up of homologous chromosomes determines which chromosomes enter into the same cell i.e. the alignment of chromosomes towards the same pole determines which chromosomes enter into the same cell to form the genetic composition of gametes. In an organism with two sets of chromosomes (diploid), there are four possible combinations in which chromosomes are arranged in the metaphase plate, resulting in differences in chromosomal distribution in daughter cells/gametes, the process of independent assortment
