A medical researcher measured the diastolic wall thicknesses of the arteries in a young, healthy test subject. The test subject

came back 20 years later to have the measurements repeated. The measurements revealed that the subject's artery walls were half as thick as they were originally. Which of the following is the most likely long-term effect if the measured trend continues?

If the subject's artery walls were half as thick as they were originally back before 20 years, the most likely long term effect if the measured trend continues is that the arteries and vein will most likely fuse. Giving the effect of the deoxygenated and oxygenated blood to mix.

Differences between compact bone and cartilage
Mrac [35]

Answer:

hey!!

Cartilage and Bone are specialised forms of connective tissue. They are both made up of cells embedded in an extracellular matrix. ... Cartilage is thin, avascular, flexible and resistant to compressive forces. Bone is highly vascularised, and its calcified matrix makes it very strong.

Hope it is helpful for u.

In a piece of hemoglobin beta chain,how might u look to see an mrna in Ecoli?
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Hemoglobin is responsible for binding and transporting oxygen in the body. It is a tetrameric protein that is found in high concentration in red blood cells (erythrocytes, red blood cells). Each hemoglobin molecule is made up of four subunits: two of the alpha type and two of the beta type, and each subunit can bind an oxygen molecule through its heme group.

Structure studies have shown that hemoglobin can adopt two conformations, called T (tense) and R (relaxed). Deoxyhemoglobin (in blue) is in state T, and the union of oxygen (in red) causes the transition to state R. The animation shows a close view of the heme group (in white, balls and rods) of one of the subunits of hemoglobin. In the deoxygenated state (T), the iron atom is not coplanar with the rest of the heme group due to its association with the histidine side chain. The union of oxygen displaces the iron atom so that it remains coplanar with the rest of the heme group, which in turn drags histidine, producing a larger-scale conformational change that affects the entire protein.

Hemoglobin can be considered as a tetramer formed by two alpha-beta dimers. The conformational change associated with the transition from T to R mainly affects the relative position of these two dimers (rather than the interactions between the alpha and beta subunits within a dimer). This is illustrated in the last stretch of the animation (drawn in black and white).

Building blokes of proteins are _____
gulaghasi [49]
The building blocks of protein are C. AMINO ACIDS.

Amino acids are made up of a center carbon atom bound positively to a charged amino group and a negatively charged carboxyl group and a side chain.

The primary structure of a protein is the sequence of an amino acids that are attached together by a peptide bond

The secondary structure of a protein,  the polypeptide is folded through the  mechanisms of amino acids rotating around bonds folding into a helix or a pleated sheet structure and stabilized by a hydrogen bond.

How do ocean currents affect temperature? Check all that apply
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Ocean currents are the continuous, predictable, directional movement of seawater driven by gravity, wind (Coriolis Effect), and water density. Ocean water moves in two directions: horizontally and vertically. Horizontal movements are referred to as currents, while vertical changes are called upwellings or downwellings.They carry cold water from the poles to the equator and cool air over land.  They move warm water from the equator to the poles and heat air over land.

Explanation:

They carry cold water from the poles to the equator and cool air over land.  They move warm water from the equator to the poles and heat air over land.

Can you live if your intestines fall out of your stomach?
alina1380 [7]
I do not believe it is possible for long periods of time. If the intestines are still intact, one can live for up to a certain period of time without medical help. However, this is an extremely short period of time.
