<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The correct option is</u><u> (B) Downfolds are called synclines.</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

There are three basic types of folds (1) anticlines, (2) sync-lines and (3) monocline. Among these folds Sync-lines are formed when rocks are compressed by plate-tectonic forces. They can be as small as the side of a cliff or as large as an entire valley. Sync-lines are the folds of rock layers that slope downward on both sides of a common crest. So option B is the correct option.

what is the meaning of phosphoryl transfer potential and what does it mean to have a high or low phosphoryl transfer potential?
makvit [3.9K]

Phosphoryl-transfer potential is the ability of an organic molecule to transfer its terminal phosphoryl group to water which is an acceptor molecule. It is the “standard free energy of hydrolysis”.

Explanation:

This potential plays a key role during cellular energy transformation by energy coupling during ATP hydrolysis.  

A compound with a high phosphoryl-transfer potential has the increased ability to couple the carbon oxidation with ATP synthesis and can accelerate cellular energy transformation.  

A compound with a high phosphoryl-transfer potential can readily donate its terminal phosphate group; whereas, a compound with a low has a lesser ability to donate its phosphate group.

ATP molecules have a high phosphoryl transfer potential due to its structure, resonance stabilization, high entropy, electrostatic repulsion and stabilization by hydration. Compounds like creatine phosphate, phosphoenolpyruvate also have high phosphoryl-transfer potential.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

<u>Pro:</u>

May hold answers to cure various diseases including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's - these may be answers to various diseases that are not able to cure.

Requires a small number of cells because of the fast replication rate - these are able to produce a high amount of cells in the lab as they are able to replicate faster.

Medical benefits such as regenerating organ tissue and therapeutic cell cloning

<u>cons:</u>

ethical controversy over use of stem cells from lab fertilized human egg - there is an ethical controversy around the use of lab fertilized human egg

unproven treatments often come with high rejection rates - these researches provide uncertain results and not tested and easily affected so the rate of rejection is high

The cost can be prohibited for many patients - these require high cost and can not be in the budget of every patient.
