The most used instruments for the determination of free-living physical activity and energy expenditure are; whole-room indirect calorimeter, Accelerometers and pedometers and also the Doubly-Labeled Water. Indirect calorimetry measures gas exchange from which energy expenditure can be estimated, Double labeled water is the most relevant method for measuring free-living energy expenditure in animals and humans, it is based on exponential disappearance from the body of the stable isotopes (H and O) after a bolus dose of water. Accelerometers and pedometers provide an inexpensive overall measure of physical activity, however they are unable to asses the intensity, frequency and duration of activity or to estimate energy expenditure.

What is land breeze and sea breeze? If you can please do this in your own words.
german

Land breeze blows during the night from land to sea and the land becomes cooler faster than the sea. The air above the sea becomes less dense (i.e. warmer) and rises. The cooler air from the land moves in to take its place. Sea breeze: Sea breeze blows during the day and the land heats up faster than the sea

Termination of DNA synthesis in E. coli and humans differ significantly because of the genomic structures involved, namely a cir
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Main protein in ending high fidelity in E. Coli is the Tus protein that binds to Ter sequences in order to prevent replication forks from passing through the end region. In the Ter sequences, the Tus protein blocks replication by establishing a close association with a particular G-C base pair.

The main protein in human cells is telomerase, which contains an RNA primer and is required to extend the synthesis of lagging strands in linear chromosomal telomeres.

Monomers are the building blocks of which of the following? SELECT ALL THAT APPLY
kirill [66]

Monomers are molecules whose linkage between them form polymers.

<h3>What are monomers?</h3>

Monomers are molecules that have a low molecular mass.

<h3>Characteristics of monomers</h3>

  • When many monomers come together through chemical bonds they form a polymer, which is a macromolecule.

  • Natural monomers allow the formation of biomolecules found in living beings.

  • Carbohydrates, for example, are macromolecules that are created from the bond established by monosaccharides (monomers).

Therefore, we can conclude that polymers, in short, are chains of monomers -generally joined by covalent bonds-.

Why does the moon have a effect on the sea? <br><br>will give BRAINLIEST and a thank you!​
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The Moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the Moon and the side farthest from the Moon. These bulges of water are high tides. ... High tides and low tides are caused by the Moon give me brainliest
