Clinical trial of dubious quality to test his hypothesis about vitamin C; a clinical trial that other researchers rated as defective. In his research, there was not even a randomization to take vitamin C or not, it was simply observed the three who were given the micronutrient, without having a subject who was not given to compare results.

Answer:

The correct answer is - there is no control group to compare results.

Explanation:

A control group is a group that is used in the experiment in order to get an accurate relation between the independent group and the dependent group. It is kept constant during the experiment.

In this clinical research, there is no control group or nothing is constant as all three subjects got the same treatment so there is nothing to compare the result with and prove its effect. So, it is not validated by the scientific community as there is nothing to compare or check with.

Thus, the correct answer is- there is no control group to compare results.

The cross bridge cycle is a series of molecular events that occur after excitation of the sarcolemma. What is a cross bridge?a.
Contact [7]

Answer:

A myosin head bound to actin

Explanation:

Cross bridge cycling explains the sliding filament theory according to which thin and thick filament slide against each other for muscle contraction. The two myosin heads extend form the thick filament. One myosin head has binding site for ATP and other head has binding site for actin from thin filament.

When myosin head binds to actin a cross bridge is formed. When ATP binds to the other head the bridge dissociates. Actin binding site is free and myosin tries to bind with other actin during which ATP is hydrolysed into ADP and Pi. Myosin along with the ADP and free Pi successfully binds to another actin molecule. The cross bridge formed generates a powerful force and ADP and Pi are displaced from it. The cross bridge is now free again for binding of next ATP molecule and the cycle continues.

A mutation that causes production of a defective pilus in a bacterium will prevent __________.
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The correct answer is: Attachment.

Explanation:

  • Pilus are thread like structures which are present on the surface of the bacterial cell.
  • They are mainly responsible for attaching the bacterial cells to a substrate, for obtaining food or to an eukaryotic cell for the purpose of infection.
  • Pilus also mediate the process of conjugation in some bacterial cells.
  • Conjugation is a process by which genetic material or plasmids are transferred from one bacteria to another through a channel formed in between the two bacteria by the help of the pilus.
  • Pilus also helps the bacteria by preventing them from getting recognised by the immune cells in the host.
  • A defective pilus will affect all the above processes, resulting in death of the bacteria.

Which metabolic pathway requires a proton gradient?
Ad libitum [116K]

Oxidative phosphorylation requires a proton gradient.

  • Cells use enzymes to oxidize foods in the metabolic pathway known as oxidative phosphorylation, electron transport-linked phosphorylation, or terminal oxidation, which releases chemical energy to create adenosine triphosphate.
  • This happens inside mitochondria in eukaryotes. The majority of the energy required for biosynthesis, maintaining a healthy ion balance, and mechanical effort is provided by oxidative phosphorylation, which is the principal source of ATP in higher animals.
  • A succession of proteins and electron carriers in the mitochondrial membrane, as well as the electron transport chain, are all involved in the process of oxidative phosphorylation.
