bisphosphoglyceric acid (bpg) is a byproduct of glycolysis released into the bloodstream when an animal's supply of oxygen is lo
valentina_108 [34]

When an animal's oxygen supply is limited, bisphospoglyceric acid increases the oxygen level by acclamitization.

Acclimatization is the term used to describe the advantageous physiological changes brought on by frequent exposure to a hot climate. Increased sweating effectiveness is one of these physiological modifications. It is converted into a molecule identical to that of 2,3-bisphosphoglyceric acid (2,3BPG). A mechanism called 2,3BPG is employed to control the effective emission of oxygen from haemoglobin. As one of the processes of acclimatization, 1,3-BPG levels will rise in a patient's blood when concentration is low. Low oxygen levels increase 1,3BPG levels, which in turn increase 2,3BPG levels and change how well oxygen separates from hemoglobin.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer: 0.5

Explanation:

Number of people with traits = 900

Total number of individuals= 1800

To find the probability with regards to the question, we divide the number of individuals having the traits by the total population of individuals. This will be:

= 900 / 1800

= 0.5

Nady [450]

Answer:

Valine-Leucine-Proline-Lysine-Histidine

Explanation:

The central dogma of biology is the process by which DNA is used to synthesize RNA and subsequently amino acid sequence (PROTEIN). The processes of transcription and translation is used in gene expression. Transcription is the process whereby the information encoded in a DNA molecule is used to synthesize a mRNA molecule. Transcription is catalyzed by RNA polymerase enzyme, which uses complementary base pairing rule i.e Adenine(A)-Thymine(T), Guanine(G)-Cytosine(C) pairing.

N.B: Thymine is replaced by Uracil in the mRNA

For the above DNA sequence: CAC GAC GGA TTC GTA, the mRNA sequence will be: GUG CUG CCU AAG CAU

Translation is the second process of gene expression which involves the synthesis of an amino acid sequence from an mRNA molecule. The mRNA is read in a group of three nucleotides called CODON. Each codon specifies an amino acid (see attached image for genetic code)

Based on the attached genetic code, an mRNA sequence: GUG CUG CCU AAG CAU will encode an amino acid sequence: Valine(Val) - Leucine (Leu) -Proline (Pro) -Lysine (Lys) - Histidine (His).

GUG specifies Valine amino acid

CUG specifies Leucine amino acid

CCU specifies Proline amino acid

AAG specifies Lysine amino acid

CAU specifies Histidine amino acid

Which human body systems interact to perform temperature regulation along with the nervous and endocrine systems?
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

Hypothalamus of human body system interact to perform temperature regulation along with nervous system and endocrine system.

Explanation:

Hypothamus is an important part of our lower brain that play a significant role in regulation of body temperature.

   Hypothalamus works with nervous system along with the other parts of our body such as blood vessels,skin and sweat gland to maintain temperature homeostasis of human body.

  When our body temperature rises at that time hypothalamus slows down the rate of metabolism of our body to restrict further increase in our body temperature and also dilates the blood vessels present beneath the skin so that body can liberate heat to the environment.

 on the other hand when the body temperature decreases at that time hypothalamus increases the metabolic rate of our body to increase the body temperature and also the constrict the blood vessels present under the skin.
