lara [203]

Answer:

d. transcriptional regulation (regulation of whether transcription occurs)

Explanation:

If the product of a gene is not needed, then allowing the transcription of such gene to proceed only to be regulated after or even after translation will result in a mere wastage of resources. It thus means that the resources utilized for transcription has been wasted.

Hence, the correct option is d.

Nikitich [7]

According to lecture, the level of emission reductions pledged by individual countries at the paris climate agreements are sufficient to prevent dramatic climate change according to many scientists. The statement is False.

The issue is that many scientists believe the existing pledged emission reductions won't stop serious climate change.Leading the way in global efforts to combat climate change has been the EU. It played a key role in negotiating the Paris Agreement and continues to lead the world.

The EU presented its updated and improved NDC in December 2020, along with information to promote the ICTU (clearness, transparency, and understanding) of the NDC and a target to cut emissions by at least 55% from 1990 levels by 2030.

By working together, the EU and its Member States are committed to a legally-binding goal of a net domestic reduction of greenhouse gas emissions of at least 55% from 1990 to 2030.

Is it true that ocean biomes contain a wider biodiversity than land biomes why or why not?

EastWind [94]

The difficulty with this answer, lies in the fact that not all of land and ocean biomes have been completely explored. The ocean is vast, covering approximately 70% of the Earth's surface, with literally vertical miles or kilometers of depth, and with some areas with sparse to no biodiversity. The same can be said about certain areas of large deserts with very low levels of biodversity, void of life, like vast deserts of the Sahara or Gobi. But, the Amazon rain forest contains still unknown species of plant and animal life, just like the ocean. Because of its vastness, intellectually, I would say the ocean contains more biodiversity, but the answer is scientifically, as of now, yet to be proven one way or the other.

When the vasomotor center of our brain wishes to increase blood pressure, it increases ____________ signals causing ______.

dlinn [17]

When the vasomotor center of our brain wishes to increase blood pressure, it increases the heart rate signals causing The greater contraction of the heart causes more blood vessels to constrict, increasing the blood vessels' resistance.

By speeding the heartbeat, making the heart beat harder, and constricting some blood vessels, the sympathetic nervous system increases blood pressure. This will enhance the vessels' resistance.

What controls blood pressure by the vasomotor center?

The vasomotor center modifies the tone of the vascular smooth muscle. Both the local and systemic blood pressure are impacted by this. The vasomotor center produces increased sympathetic tone when blood pressure lowers. This causes an increase in blood pressure.

How is blood pressure regulated?

The autonomic nervous system has short-term control over blood pressure (ANS). Baroreceptors are capable of detecting changes in blood pressure. These are situated in the carotid sinus and aortic arch. High arterial pressure causes the blood vessel wall to stretch, activating the baroreceptors.

What systems regulate peripheral resistance in the vasomotor center?

The vasomotor center in the tunica media regulates smooth muscle contraction or vessel tone. Circulating output is impacted by changes in peripheral resistance, pressure, and flow. The majority of these neurons are in charge of causing sympathetic neurons to release the neurotransmitter norepinephrine.
