<span>Beta thalassemia is a blood disorder that reduces the production of hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is the iron-containing protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen to cells throughout the body. In people with beta thalassemia, low levels of hemoglobin lead to a lack of oxygen in many parts of the body. Affected individuals also have a shortage of red blood cells (anemia), which can cause pale skin, weakness, fatigue, and more serious complications. People with beta thalassemia are at an increased risk of developing abnormal blood clots.</span>

Which of the following best describes the purpose of examining mammary secretions in mares before parturition?
Arisa [49]

The statement that best describes he purpose of examining mammary secretions in mares before parturition is testing for elevated levels of calcium.

<h3>What is the processes of parturition in mares?</h3>

In parturition, a fetus is fully developed, a process called Ferguson reflex occurs to stimulate contractions. The canal is lubricated by a fluid called allanotic fluid and facilitates the discharge of the amnion and the fetus. A virginal distension releases oxytocin and more contractions.

For a mare to be ready for parturition, elevated levels of calcium is tested from the mammary gland to confirm that the mare is healthy and ready for parturition.

Answer: ATP releases energy when it converts to ADP .

Explanation:

During energy needs, the body cells directs the loss of a phosphate group (Pi) from ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) to yeild ADP (adenosine Diphosphate), and a further loss will yield AMP (adenosine monophosphate). For each loss energy is also released when a phosphate is removed

The reaction involves the addition of water, so it is a hydrolytic reaction, and is catalyzed by enzymes of the mitochondria, and is represented as the equation below:

ATP + H2O → ADP + Pi + free energy
