A doctor treats a patient with a skin condition with different creams to see which is most effective. What is the independent va
kupik [55]

Answer:

1. Skin Creams

Explanation:

An independent variable is the only variable that is changed while the rest is kept the same. In this setup, the doctor is using different creams on the same patient with the same skin condition so the independent variable is the skin cream and not the skin condition.

Which of these animal would most likely produce antifreeze compound in its cell?
algol13
Antarctic fish. To stop their blood from freezing, some fish that live in the arctic and Antarctic have special Antifreeze proteins. Antifreeze proteins are very clever, as they slow down the formation of bonds between water molecules, which prevents the formation of ice crystals in the fish's blood.

Why can information only pass in one direction across synapse?? pls help !!
klio [65]
A Nerve electrical impulse only travels in one direction. There are several reasons nerve impulses only travel in one direction. The most important is synaptic transport.
In order for a "nerve impulse" to pass from cell to cell, it must cross synaptic junctions. The nerve cells are lined up head to tail all the way down a nerve track, and are not connected, but have tiny gaps between them and the next cell. These tiny gaps are called synapses.
When you get a nerve firing, you have probably heard that it is an electrical impulse that carries the signal. This is true, but it is not electrical in the same way your wall outlet works. This is electrochemical energy. Neurotransmitters are molecules that fit like a lock and key into a specific receptor. The receptor is located on the next cell in the line. When the neurotransmitter hits the receptor on the next cell in line, it signals that cell to begin a firing as well.
This will continue all the way down the length of the nerve track. In a nutshell, a nerve firing results in a chain reaction down the nerve cell's axon, or stemlike section. Sodium (Na+) ions flow in, potassium (K+) ions flow out, and we get an electrochemical gradient flowing down the length of the cell. You can think of it as a line of gunpowder that someone lit, with the flame traveling down the length of it. Common electrical power is more like a hose full of water, and when you put pressure on one end, the water shoots out the other.
Therefore, nerve impulses cannot travel in the opposite direction, because nerve cells only have neurotransmitter storage vesicles going one way, and receptors in one place.

Medicines are often administered in pill form. In many cases, the active ingredient of the pill (the drug) is joined to another
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Option B, ionic bonds; salt

Explanation:

All medicines either in the form of pills or liquid interact with our body by forming a bond with target specific receptors. For instance if a pain killer is taken then it shall form bond with receptors produced by pain and inflammation

So medicines are basically chemical which interact with biomolecules such as enzymes, nucleic acid, hormones, ions etc. by forming ionic bond, hydrogen bond, van der wall force etc. in the active site of enzyme.    

These salt molecule remain stable in normal conditions but as they come in contact with digestive system of the body (with different pH) they release the drugs

Hence, option B is correct

What are the 4 functions of nucleotide​
Leni [432]

Nucleotides play different roles such as being the building blocks of nucleic acids, energy storage, cellular signaling, enzymatic cofactors, etc.

  • Nucleotides are the building blocks of nucleic acids (either DNA or RNA).

  • These molecules (nucleotides) are composed of one pentose sugar, a nitrogenous base, and one or more phosphate groups.

  • In DNA, there are four types of nucleotides, each containing one different nitrogenous base (i.e., Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine).

  • Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a nucleotide that represents the energy coin of the cell, which is used to carry out different metabolic functions (e.g., growth, differentiation, reproduction, etc).

In conclusion, nucleotides play different roles such as being the building blocks of nucleic acids, energy storage, cellular signaling, enzymatic cofactors, etc.
