Answer: Elastin

Explanation:

The elastin fibers are fibers that are present in the matrix of connective tissues. These are produced by the arterial smooth muscle cells and the fibroblasts. These have bundles of ptoteins called as elastin. These fibers can stretch to 1.5 times in their length. These fibers act like a rubber band and are very flexible. These undergoes frequent streching such as in aorta and in some of the ligaments.

Thus elastin proteins will help the aorta to stretch while exercise so as to accomodate more amount of blood.

¿Qué acciones a nivel internacional se han realizado para frenar el cambio climático?
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

se han desarrollado protocolos y acuerdos con el compromiso de reducir la emisión de gases de efecto invernadero (especialmente en naciones industrializadas)

Explanation:

En los últimas décadas, la mayoría de las naciones industrializadas del planeta han establecido el compromiso de reducir las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero (especialmente dióxido de carbono), esto con el objetivo de luchar contra los efectos devastadores sobre el medioambiente asociados con el calentamiento global. El primer acuerdo entre naciones fue el protocolo de Kioto establecido en 1997, donde 37 de las naciones más industrializadas del planeta se comprometieron a reducir el nivel de emisión de gases de efecto invernadero antes de 2012. Posteriormente, en 2015, en el acuerdo de París, las naciones industrializadas plantearon diversos compromisos con el objetivo de luchar contra el cambio climático. Algunas de las acciones directas más importantes que se plantearon en el acuerdo de París fueron: 1- reducir el aumento observado en la temperatura media del planeta por debajo de 2°C para las próximas décadas, 2- crear un fondo común de 100 mil millones de dólares para luchar contra los efectos del calentamiento global, y 3- cada 5 años cada nación deberá presentar en Naciones Unidas cuales han sido las medidas concretas adoptadas para mitigar los efectos del calentamiento global y los resultados de tales acciones.

A man with cystic fibrosis of the pancreas wishes to marry a young woman whose family has never had an individual born with the
mixas84 [53]

Cystic fibrosis is a recessive condition; meaning if a dominant condition takes over it will not be seen in the offspring. The man genotype with cystic fibrosis can only be this: cc (when c is equal to the cystic fibrosis and C is equal to not having one). The woman with no history of cystic fibrosis can possibly have either of these two genotypes: Cc or CC.

To see their offspring’s possible genotype, we’ll use a punnett square let’s start with Cc:

                C             c

c              Cc           cc

c              Cc           cc            There is a 50 % chance of the child having cystic fibrosis.

To see their offsprings possible genotype with CC:

                C             C

c              Cc           Cc

c              Cc           Cc           There is no chance that the child will have cystic fibrosis.
