Answer;

Lysosome

Explanation;

-Lysosomes are organelles that contain digestive enzymes. They digest excess or worn out organelles, food particles, and engulfed viruses or bacteria.

-Each lysosome is surrounded by a membrane that maintains an acidic environment within the interior via a proton pump. They contain digestive enzymes (acid hydrolases). They digest excess or worn-out organelles, food particles, and engulfed viruses or bacteria, by breaking down macromolecules such as nucleic acids, proteins, and polysaccharides.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The answer should be A. lithosphere.

Explanation:

Firstly, let's look at the options:

C. and D, both parts of the Earth at the core, have almost nothing to do with the Earth's crust or tectonic plates except maybe having a passive effect on them.

B. mantle is where the lava that moves the tectonic plates circulates due to convection, which is the reason they move at all. But, it is not where the tectonic plates themselves are.

Therefore, finally, we have A as the answer.

(As a sidenote, the "lithosphere" means the Earth's crust.)

Hope this helped!

Which enzyme is responsible for ""unzipping"" the dna double helix?
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Helicase

Explanation:

The DNA double helix is unzipped by the enzyme *HELICASE*. The enzyme breaks the hydrogen bond between the bases thereby causing the strands of the double helicase to unzip. The action of the helicase enzyme uses energy from ATP. The unzipping of the double helix does not occur in a swift move. One end of the DNA molecule with 5'-3' is opened up showing the antiparallel single strands. The end that is opened is termed INITIATION SITE of replication. The opening look like someone standing with legs wide open. The wide opening is called REPLICATION FORK. The single strands of the fork are usually unstable but their stability is maintained by the DNA-binding-proteins. Having opened the double helix, the replication would then continue in the 5'-3' direction of one of the two antiparallel single strands.

In the emergency department, a client arrives following a car accident. His pulse is 122; BP 88/60; respiration is 18 bpm. Urine
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

innervation of the sympathetic nervous system

Explanation:

Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that this lower urine output is primarily due to innervation of the sympathetic nervous system. This supply of nerves then increases the pressure which tightens the afferent arteriole, and is what prevents urine from passing through. Hence why the urine output is only 4 mL over the first hour on arrival.
