otez555 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

granular cells of the juxtaglomerular apparatus

Explanation:

Renin or angiotensinogenase is a circulating enzyme released by granular cells of the juxtaglomerular apparatus of the kidney in response to a series of physiological stimuli and causes activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system.

Renin transforms angiotensinogen from the liver into angiotensin I, which is transformed into angiotensin II by the lungs.

Which of the following characterizes the lag phase of the bacterial growth curve?
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Little increase in cell number

Explanation:

There are four distinct phases in the bacterial growth curves that is lag, log, stationary and death phase. The lag phase of the bacterial growth curve is characterized by very little increase in the cell number.

The growth rate of bacteria in the lag phase is slow because the medium is new to the bacterial culture and it requires time for bacteria have to adapt to the new cultural environment and to synthesize enzymes required for substrate utilization.  

After getting adapt in their new environment bacteria starts to grow at an exponential rate. So little increase in cell number characterizes the lag phase.

Which of the following statements is not true about mRNA?
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is d. eukaryotes almost always produce polycistronic mRNA

Explanation:

mRNA can be polycistronic or monocistronic. A monocistronic mRNA contains the information of one gene only so a monocistronic mRNA code only one protein at a time but a polycistronic mRNA can code for multiple proteins at a time.

In eukaryotes, one transcriptional unit carries the information of only one protein so eukaryotes produce monocistronic mRNA but some eukaryotes are capable of having polycistronic mRNA.

In prokaryotes, many genes are transcribed as a unit to produce multiple proteins so prokaryotes produce polycistronic mRNA. Therefore the statement which is not true is d. eukaryotes almost always produce polycistronic mRNA.
