Answer:
Common examples include carbon, sulfur, oxygen, iron, copper, aluminium. Elements are represented by symbols. Compounds are substances made from atoms of different elements joined by chemical bonds. They can only be separated by a chemical reaction.
Explanation:
Substances can be categorised as either elements or compounds. Both of these are made up of atoms, the only difference is an element is made of one type of atom whereas compounds are made of two or more different types of atoms.
Answer:
Connective tissues that attach muscle to bone.
Explanation:
The tissues that connect, bind, support or separate other tissues or other organs are called Connective Tissue. There are three major types of connective tissue -
- Loose connective tissue
- Dense connective tissue
- Specialized connective tissue
Tendon and Ligaments come under dense connective tissue category. Tendon is a fibrous connective tissue and connects muscles to bone. It has capability to withstand tension.
Ligaments connect bones to bones.
Answer:
RNA polymerase binds to the promoter
Polymerase initiates RNA synthesis at the start point on the template strand
RNA polymerase moves downstream unwinding the DNA
RNA transcript is released and polymerase detaches from the DNA
The pre-RNA undergoes processing
Explanation:
The promoter is the specific DNA sequence that serves as a binding site for RNA polymerase. The enzyme RNA polymerase recognizes the promoter sequence and binds to it to begin the process of RNA synthesis. The process of RNA synthesis begins at the start site where the process of the unwinding of DNA duplex is initiated.
The unwinding separates the two DNA strands at the start site where RNA polymerase begins the process of synthesis of the new RNA strand. The newly formed RNA strand and RNA polymerase are released from the template strand after the termination of the process.
In eukaryotes, the primary RNA transcript undergoes the process of splicing of introns, the addition of poly-A tails and 5' cap which in turn transform it into the mature mRNA.
Ileostomy is a procedure where the end of the small intestine, called the ileum, is brought out of an opening in the belly through surgery. The opening is called a stoma, and its shiny, bright red in color. It is often done after the large intestine has been removed due to cancer or serious physical injuries. Having a stoma, and the need of emptying it several times a day, is disfiguring so the patient often suffer from poor self image. The patient in the case, may be concerned of being unable to continue romantic relationships due to having a stoma. As a nurse, make sure to first make patient understand that ileostomy surgery does not involve the reproductive organs or the gonads. Then, acknowledge that while having a stoma is disfiguring, many organizations are helping increase awareness and acceptance of those who have the condition. Refer the patient to such local stoma advocacy organizations.
