They are usually called Savannas, sometimes they are also called Prairies
2. Ionophores because they are class of proteins that move cell membranes. They are small, hydrophobic molecules that increase a cell's permeability to certain ions.
Answer:
All of the options are correct.
Arboviral diseases are arthropod borne, they can produce central nervous system illnesses, transmitted by mosquito bites and also produce acute self limiting fevers.
Explanation: Arboviruses are viruses that are harboured by arthropods which includes mosquitoes, they have the capacity to cause illnesses which are acute and self limiting(it has the ability to resolve on its own without treatment). It has also been found to cause illnesses to the central nervous system(the brain and the spinal cord).
Answer: 1/16, or approximately 6.25% (see explanation below)
Explanation:
Answering this question requires two steps.
First, we need to figure out the probability that this couple will have a child with albinism in the first place. We know the following:
- Both parents are unaffected.
- The couple has already had one affected child.
- Albinism follows an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern.
Let ( M = normal gene ) and ( m = mutated gene ). Since the condition is recessive, the affected child can be assumed to have a “mm” genotype. Barring the possibility of a de novo mutation (which are assumed to be rare), the affected child must have inherited one ”m” allele from each parent. Since both of them are unaffected, however, we can assume that they are both carriers (genotype “Mm”). In conclusion, 1/4 of their offspring (25%) <em>for any given pregnancy</em> may be expected to have albinism. See the resulting Punnett square:
<u> | M | m </u>
<u>M | MM | Mm </u>
<u>m | Mm | mm </u>
Note that the question asks about the probability that not one but two consecutive births result in affected children. Since it can be assumed that both events are independent (meaning: the outcome of a pregnancy does not influence the outcome of following ones), we may apply the rule of multiplication for probabilities. The final answer is therefore 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/16.
Answer:
D. There is no enough oxygen in the culture fluid
Explanation:
The cells in the test tube need to carryout one of the important metabolic processes of living organisms - respiration. The process involves the breakdown of glucose to generate energy for other metabolic processes in the cell.
Respiration can be carried out in the presence of oxygen (aerobic) or in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic). Human cells are primarily aerobic but can carryout respiration anaerobically in the presence of inadequate oxygen.
For aerobic respiration, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon-dioxide, water and energy in the form of ATP:
<em>In the absence of oxygen, the glucose becomes converted to lactic acid and a smaller amount of ATP is produced as compared to aerobic respiration.</em>
<em>Hence, lactic acid gradually builds up in the absence of oxygen due to anaerobic respiration.</em>
The correct option is D.
