Answer:

C. They are all formed from the same elements.

Explanation:

Proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids are the biomolecules found in cells of living beings. Proteins are polymers of amino acids which have one central carbon atom to which amino group (NH3), carboxyl group (COOH), a hydrogen atom (H) and one side chain are bonded.

Carbohydrates are the chemicals that also have C, H, and O in their structures.

Lipids are the derivatives of fatty acids which in turn are derived from hydrocarbons.

Hence, protein, carbohydrates, and lipids are formed of some common elements namely, C, H, and O.

Explain how living things, such as people and trees, are different from nonliving things, such as rocks and the tent.

Natali5045456 [20]

For starters, humans have feelings and cells. If we get hurt we can feel things such as pain unlike a tent. If you hit a tent there is nothing it feels because it has no feelings. We have cells all through our body and rocks don't. They are made of other stuff but not cells.

A technique that uses measurement of radioactive isotopes to evaluate the activity of the brain is

Furkat [3]

The answer is nuclear imaging. A subject is asked to take in a radionuclide (radioactive isotopes) and as the radioactive material passes though the body, it continually emits radiation that is detectable by an instrument such as a gamma camera. Examples of nuclear imaging techniques are SPECT and PET.

Assume that you have 1 mL of a solution of amylase (an enzyme) at a concentration of 15 mg protein/mL. Calculate the volume of d

lidiya [134]

Answer:

42,5 mL

Explanation:

We need to use the serial dilution formula beacuse we start with a stock concentrate solution and we need to prepare a new less concentrated one.

$DF=\frac{Vi}{Vf}$

DF in the dilution factor, Vi is the initial volume and Vf is the final volume.

The first step is to have the same measurment unit so we need to convert 345 µg to mg.

we know that 1 µg equals 0,001 g, hence:

$345 µg = 0,345 mg$

now the final volume is 0,345 mg protein/ mL and the inital volume is 15mg protein/mL, both of them are in the same unit so we can use the formula

$DF= \frac{15mg protein/mL}{0.345mg protein/mL}$

$DF= 43,5 mg protein/ mL$

Now since the question said that we already have 1.0mL of the amylase stock solution we need to subtract that 1.0mL to the 43,5 mg protein/mL

$43,5mL-1,0mL = 42,5 mL$

So, we need 42,5 mL of diluting buffer if we want a final concentration of 345 µg protein/mL (0.345 mg protein/mL)

For the answer to the question above, I think that the initial titer that has been done to her may have been done too early in the infection that detectable levels of antibody were not present yet so that's why they have to repeat it.
