A. because the heart will pump more blood filled with oxygen to the muscles that need it most

Answer: A. His heart beating more quickly.

Explanation:

The physical activity like running increase the rate of heart beat and blood circulation in the body due to muscular activity. During running the body experiences the depletion of oxygen. Oxygen becomes the main requirement for cellular respiration during running. To meet the requirement of oxygen the heart pumps the blood faster so that the requirement in each cell get fulfilled through rapid blood circulation.

On the basis of the above explanation, A. His heart beating more quickly. is the correct option.

How is it that the same tertiary structure of a protein can result from different primary structures? Select one: a. Any protein
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

I believe that the best answer to the question: How is it that the same tertiary structure of a protein can result from different primary structures? Would be, B: None of the above.

Explanation:

This is probably the best choice from all the ones in the list simply because due to specific portions of the other answers they make the statement incorrect.

It will help to remember this: proteins have primary, secondary and tertiary structures because when they first emerge from the trascription process from mRNA, they are a simple string where the most important factor is the sequence of aminoacids. It is this sequence which will determine the folding factor. However, there is another factor that must always be kept in mind; environmental factors (temperature, medium where the protein is, as well as location where it is being produced) will also play a role on how the folding will happen and on which of the aminoacids.

The evolvement of a protein chain from its primary, to its secondary and then tertiary shape (the only functional, or known as native state) depends on which of the aminoacids in a specific sequence has the necessary elements to form bonds (hydrogen bonds) with others and thus start the folding process.

Comment on why do you think cells prefer to use carbohydrates as a source of energy before they use fats and proteins.
kompoz [17]

Answer:

This can be explained  based on structure, and on metabolisms of  carbohydrate.

Explanation:

Carbohydrate has a relatively simple structural composition than the  either protein or fatty acids. The C, H and Oxygen molecules are of  relatively fewer in number and few  chains than fats and protein.Thus  cells will spend less energy to break bonds(catabolisims) among these molecules during cellular respiration  pathways  to trap the energy.

In addition glucose the end products of carbohydrate did not need any processing before it enters glycolysis, Kreb's Cycle and oxidative phosphorylation pathways to generate energy for the cells.

Conversely, for protein to be used it has to be first deaminated(removal of amino acid) by the liver  before it enters glycolysis,while fats needs to  be broken down and undergo beta oxidation   with the long chains removed  before it can  form acetyl CoA. Therefore cells will prefer few steps, less endergonic  pathways of glucose than longer more endergonic amino acids  and fatty acid pathways.

Furthermore, glucose can be used in cellular respiration to  produce energy either aerobically or anaerobically, while fats can only be used anaerobically. Therefore, since cells usually prefer to thrive in aerobic conditions they  breakdown glucose easily during this period, and when lack of oxygen occurs they switched to anaerobic, Thus, the versatility of glucose to oxygen concentration makes glucose a better choice. Besides if fats was used anaerobically, ketone bodies build up which may be toxic to the cells.

During which stage of the cell cycle does cell division occur? A. mitosis B. cell growth C. interphase D. quiescence
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

interphase

Explanation:

During interphase, the cell grows and the DNA replicates. After that there's the mitotic phase where the replicated DNA and the contents in the cytoplasm are sperated in a way that the cell divides.
