Answer:
Vasopressin
Explanation:
Vasopressin is an anti-diuretic hormone. Its main function is to control the osmolality and volume of body fluids, helping the body to lose fluids. The secretory neurons are activated as a result of increased osmotic pressure or reduced blood pressure, which is also reduced by this hormone. The release of this hormone has a potent vasoconstrictor effect, causing water retention to increase, acting as an antidiuretic hormone. The increased permeability of the collecting tubules and the thick ascending branches of the Henle loop, resulting from the exposure of aquaporins to the apical membrane, enables the diffusion of water found in the tubule cells to the medullary region of the kidney.
The prefix "cardio" refers to D. heart
Answer:
FALSE
Explanation:
Papillary muscles are found in the bottom chambers of the heart and attaches to the tricuspid and bicuspid valve through tendons to facilitate blood flow during systole. It also prevent prolapse. These muscles contract before the contraction of ventricular muscles (or before the contraction of ventricles) by pulling chordae tendinae till the ventricles are relaxed. This helps in preparing the valves for high ventricular pressure
Hence, the given statement is false
<span>c. Metaphase
</span><span>The two identical daughter cells resulting from mitosis and cytokinesis are identical in the following ways:1. Mitosis occurs when the nucleus of the cell divides into two identical nuclei, each with the same type and number of chromosomes. The cell's DNA is duplicated during this phase. Sometimes the cell's DNA isn't copied properly resulting in cancer-type cells. 2. Cytokinesis is when the cytoplasm divides into two identical daughter cells. Each cell is genetically identical and both are a similar size. </span>
Answer:
A series of nonpolar amino acids would most likely be located in the interior region of the tridimensional molecule.
Explanation:
Proteins are formed by linearly arranged amino acids, each with a side chain: the R-group.
Of the 20 different amino acids that compose the proteins, about half of them -10- are non-polar. Their R-groups are not stable if they are in contact with water, meaning that non-polar amino acids are hydrophobic.
When proteins are synthesized, they acquire a three-dimensional structure that makes them more stable. Lineal polypeptides get folded and turn into a shape that makes them more stable in the environment and capable of accomplishing their biological role. When they are in an aqueous media, their bent shape leaves the hydrophilic R-groups in contact with water. The hydrophilic R-groups stick in the center of the polypeptide, facing the protein interior, and avoiding interaction with water.
