An extracorporeal liver device is similar to a kidney dialysis because this is the device used for liver dialysis.

Liver dialysis or technically known as Single-Pass Albumin Dialysis is designed to remove protein-bound toxins. It is the simplest form of albumin dialysis which utilizes the rudimentary principles of hemodialysis or hemodiafiltration. The dynamics of this procedure begins with the patient's blood flowing through a standard high-flux dialyzer that is impermeable to albumin. This is then dialyzed against a dialysate with an albumin concentration of 2%-5%, which is discarded after a single pass. It allows the removal of albumin-bound molecules that are minute enough to pass through the porous membrane and as well as water-soluble toxins.

1.The Punnett square above shows a cross between two sweet pea plants in Mendel's

1) 75% purple flowered and 25% white flowered. If you complete the punnett square, you'll see the combinations are PP, Pp, Pp, and pp. The capital P is dominant (purple), so you know that 3/4 combinations will be purple flowers.

2) 50%. There is a 50% chance Grace will have Huntington's disease because since the disease is dominant, it is capital letter H. When you make a punnett square, you'll see the combinations are Hh, Hh, hh, and hh. There is a 50% chance Grace will have the Hh combination.

3) Protein. Protein is the only bio-molecule out of the 4 options, and the diagram shows a protein being made.

4) Transcription. Transcription is when the genetic message from DNA is transcripted onto mRNA.

The rate of firing of the postsynaptic neuron depends on the amount of ______ input it receives from the presynaptic neuron.
AysviL [449]

The postsynaptic potential is the membrane potential, which takes place in the neuron present post synapsis (after the chemical synapse). The presynaptic neuron releases neurotransmitter, which causes the firing in the postsynaptic neurons.  

The firing of the post synaptic neuron depends on the excitation and inhibition inputs received from the presynaptic neuron. The firing is the resultant of the summation of excitatory and inhibitory potential. In case, the excitatory potential is greater than inhibitory potential, the post synaptic neuron would be excited. in case, inhibitory potential is greater than excitatory potential, then the post synaptic neuron would be inhibited.  


Hence, the correct answer is option d.

do you think there may be some closely related species of organisms that cannot be identified with a dichotomous key? explain yo
irakobra [83]
Yes. I think that there are some closely related species of organisms that cannot be identified with a dichotomous key.

Dichotomous key is used to classify objects or organisms based on its physical characteristics. Because of that limitation, there are species that may be related according to the dichotomous key but are in fact not or its relation is very minimal whereas there are organisms that may seem unrelated based on their physical characteristics but are actually from the same ancestors.
