Why is it extremely unlikely for the development of powerful lungs to occur after the adolescent period?

Biology
1 answer:
sashaice [31]4 years ago
6 0
The size of the lung will be increased as someone growing their height. Higher height will result in a bigger lung and then higher lung capacity. Height will be increased much in puberty period because of the growth spurt but it won't go much after that.
Since there are no possibilities for achieving higher height in adolescent, the lung capacity wouldn't become higher too.

Which of the following is the coenzyme that functions as an electron carrier in photosynthesis?
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. NADP⁺

Explanation:

NADP+ is the coenzyme that acts as the electron carrier during the photosynthetic process. The electron that is released from the splitting of water pass through the electron transport chain and at the end of the chain the electron is received by an electron carrier called NADP+.  

So this passing of electron causes the transport of H ions in the thylakoid lumen from the stroma and when these ions come back through ATP synthase it forms ATP. Then these NADPH and ATP are used in the Calvin cycle to fix the CO2 into complex form. Therefore the correct answer is C. NADP⁺.

Describe 3 different ways that antibodies inactivate antigens
4vir4ik [10]

1) Antibodies are produced into the blood and mucosa, there they bind to and inactivate substances like pathogens and toxins. It's pretty much neutralization.

2) Antibodies activate the complement system to destroy bacterial cells by lysis (punching holes in the cell wall).

3) Antibodies facilitate phagocytosis of other substances by phagocytic cells (opsonization).

In nature, mutation rates are usually ______ to maintain alleles that are not favored in a population by natural selection.
Ne4ueva [31]

In nature, mutation rates aren't usually high enough to maintain alleles that are not favored in a population by natural selection.

While in the wild, many populations are led by natural selection. This means that favorable traits are passed down through generations, while unfavorable traits are not. Traits that are best suited for the environment of the organism will prevail to help the chance of survival.

Mutation rates usually aren't high enough to create traits that are unfavorable to an organism. While mutations are still possible, it is still unlikely. The traits that are chosen by natural selection are most likely to be passed onto organisms and their offspring.
