Answer:

Thymosin

Explanation:

Thymosin is the term used to refer to a set of thymus polypeptide hormones that influence the maturation of T lymphocytes intended to play an active role in cell mediated immunity. Thymosin may serve as an immunotransmitter by modulating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal and gonadal axes. It also helps to counteract the harmful effects of cortisol.

How did the banned substances DDT and PCBs end up in the ocean?
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

PCBs and DDT are chemicals that were banned more than 30 years ago, but our air, water, land, and bodies are so contaminated that decades of cleanup efforts have yet to eliminate their threats to our health. Today, food is one of the most likely exposure routes to PCBs.

DedPeter [7]

The answer is pronuclei. A pronuclei is the state of the nucleus of either the sperm or the ovum after the sperm has entered the ovum but the two nuclei have not yet fused. When the sperm enters the ovum, the membrane of the sperm pronuclei dissolves hence leaving no barrier for the two genetic materials to combine.

Why does acid rain adamage mountain lebrty
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

When sulfurous, sulfuric, and nitric acids in polluted air and rain react with the calcite in marble and limestone, the calcite dissolves. In exposed areas of buildings and statues, we see roughened surfaces, removal of material, and loss of carved details. Stone surface material may be lost all over or only in spots that are more reactive.

Explanation:

You might expect that sheltered areas of stone buildings and monuments would not be affected by acid precipitation. However, sheltered areas on limestone and marble buildings and monuments show blackened crusts that have peeled off in some places, revealing crumbling stone beneath. This black crust is primarily composed of gypsum, a mineral that forms from the reaction between calcite, water, and sulfuric acid. Gypsum is soluble in water; although it can form anywhere on carbonate stone surfaces that are exposed to sulfur dioxide gas (SO2), it is usually washed away. It remains only on protected surfaces that are not directly washed by the rain.

(a) (1 pt) Assume diastolic blood pressure is normally distributed in a certain population, with a mean of 82 mmHg and a standar
Natali [406]

Answer:

2.275% of this population has a diastolic blood pressure less than 60 mmHg

Explanation:

Hello!

Yo have the distribution of the diastolic blood pressure in a certain population. Be X: diastolic blood pressure of an individual, X~N(μ;δ²)

Where

μ= 82mmHg

δ=11 mmHg

You need to calculate the probability of an individual of this population having less than 60mmHg diastolic blood pressure.

Symbolically:

P(X<60)

To obtain the value of probability you need to standardize the value of diastolic pressure so that you can obtain it from the standard normal distribution. The way to standardize the value is to subtract the mean and divide by the standard deviation

Z= (X-μ)/δ~N(0;1)

P(Z<(60-82)/11)

P(Z<-2)= 0.02275

I hope it helps!
