Answer:

c) Moderately repetitive DNA contains retro elements, such as the Alu sequence.

Explanation:

The genetic material (DNA) has been proven to contain segments or sequences that are non-coding regions i.e. do not encode proteins. These non-coding sequences can either be repeated in the genome (repetitive) or not (non-repititive). The repetitive DNA sequences can consist of short sequences that repeat themselves enormous amount of times in the genome. This repetitive DNA sequence is said to be HIGHLY repetitive.

Another one can contain long nucleotide sequences scattered in the genome. They do not repeat as often as the highly repetitive sequences. They contain retro elements like Alu sequences and transposons. These sequence is said to be MODERATELY repetitive.

The non-repititive sequences are the part of the DNA that encodes a protein. They are called unique sequences because they occur in only one or few copies in the genome.

Answer:

b) Moderately repetitive DNA contains transposable elements and genes that are expressed in abundance and thus have many copies.

Explanation:

Moderately repetitive DNA usually has longer sequence of  bases, with many  nucleotide distributions. Thus if the sequence of bases expressed encoded genes, then the longer sequence will ensure many copies of genes of varied types of proteins. Therefore  the more moderately repetitive the DNA the more genes are expressed, and  the more rooms for variation, and therefore many  gene copies produced.

Why is personal hygiene important for limiting the spread of diseases?
Artemon [7]

Answer:

It limits the spread of pathogens

Explanation:

Many diseases are contracted byu direct contact with an individual that is a carrier of a disease. The pathogens primarily spread by direct contact includes parasites, certain bacteria, certain viruses. For example, viruses include: Hepatitis A and Hepatitis E and are associated with poor sanitation and hygiene, leading to infection and inflammation of the liver.

Energy Metabolism Pathways Carbohydrate metabolism is responsible for the formation, breakdown, and interconversion of carbohydr
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

The glucose conversion to PYRUVATE opens anaerobic and aerobic metabolic pathways. VITAMIN B NIACIN in its role as a coenzyme during glycolysis, escorts hydrogen and electrons to the electron transport chain and the TCA cycle. In the Cori cycle, the release of energy from ATP converts lactate to glucose and returns the glucose molecule to the muscles through the process of Anaerobic Glycolysis.

Explanation:

In metabolism, glycolysis is defined as the splitting of the glucose molecule to form two molecules of pyruvic acid. It is the first main metabolic pathway in cellular respiration for the production of energy in form of ATP(Adenosine triphosphate).

In most cells, cellular respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen. This is known as AEROBIC RESPIRATION which produces the largest number of ATP. Energy can also be gotten by breaking down of glucose in the complete absence of oxygen. This is known as ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION.

The next stage in the degradation of glucose is a two step conversion of the two pyruvic acid molecules from glycolysis into two molecules of acetyl coenzyme A( acetyl - CoA). This occurs in the TCA( tricarboxylic acid) or Krebs cycle.

VITAMIN B NIACIN in its role as a coenzyme during glycolysis, escorts hydrogen and electrons to the electron transport chain and the TCA cycle. Coenzyme A is a derivative of vitamin B which combines with pyruvic acid to form acetyl CoA , 2 molecules of carbon dioxide and 4 molecules of hydrogen in TCA cycle.

In Cori Cycle, (which is also called Lactic acid cycle), energy released from ATP is used to convert lactate to glucose. This is to prevent increased lactic acid in the blood during anaerobic conditions in the muscles.
