Radiation reduces growth of tumors or sometimes shrinks them. It honestly depends on the type of cancer. But since your cancer cells are your own cells, your immune system cannot detect that there is a cancer in your body. The only way known to us is to radiation therapy so thats why its good to irradiate cancer cells i guess

Does not absorb moistures: Man-made fibres do not absorb sweat, trapping heat in our body. Rough feel: Man-made fibres may give the rough feel, making it unsuitable for pyjamas, underwear, etc. Some individuals are often prone to skin allergy, because of the dermatological action of Man-made fibres.

B) Explain how ATP and ADP act as allosteric regulators of enzymes that are responsible for ATP production, and how that is an e
suter [353]

Answer: B)

B) ADP can act as an allosteric activator by slowing the breakdown of fuel molecules if sufficient energy is in the cell. APT can act as an inhibitor by storing resources in more complex molecules. That is an example of feedback inhibitor because when the end product of the substrate is finished, it can bind to the allosteric site, which will result in the enzymes active site no longer being able to bind with the new substrates. And that is responsible for ATP production because That “stops” the enzyme from making more than necessary and thus wasting chemical resources.

C) Feedback inhibition is a method of metabolic control in which the need of the product of a metabolic that way acts as an inhibitor of an enzyme within that pathway. The APT generating path is an example of feedback inhibition because it controls the amount needed of the product and acts as an inhibitor of the enzyme in the anabolic  pathway.

what are the disc shaped membranous structures inside of the chloroplast where the light-dependent reactions take place
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

These are the thylakoids

Explanation:

The thylakoids which contains the chlorophyll is  the primary site of photosynthesis. It  is covered by layers of cell called the thylakoid membrane.These are the actual site for light dependent reaction.This membrane contains both photosytem I and ii, ATPase enzymes, and Cytochrome b6f complex.While the photosystem i and ii transfer elecrons during photosynthesis, the ATPase enzyme control the catalysis the phosphorylation of ADP to ATP needed for the light independent stage, the Cytochrome  proteins  acts as the ETC. involved in the transfer of electron during light dependent stage.

When thylakoids are packed together in disc shape they are refer to as Grana,(singular -granum).Each  grana are linked together by intergrana.Thus two or more grana are linked by intragrana to form a single photosynthetic functioning unit.The entire structure is bath continuously by the fluid medium-Stroma.

Their stacked and  disc shape is to increase the surface area available to accommodate enough  ETC, needed to transport electron for chemiosmosis needed for photosynthesis.
