I rerun this most-read post about when human life begins every time that the discussion resurges, which is usually in the shadow of proposed restrictions on women’s reproductive rights. Strong feelings always seem to trump biological facts. Confusion among politicians appears to be apparent concerning when certain events begin or structures appear; whether to track development from fertilization (conception) or the last menstrual period; and even the distinction between an embryo and a fetus. A 4 or 6 week prenatal human is not a fetus — the difference is not arbitrary, it has biological meaning.
Answer:
A. A pairs with U
Explanation:
In DNA, the nitrogenous bases are A, T, G, and C. In RNA, the nitrogenous bases are A, U, G, and C.
A pairs with U in RNA because it requires less energy to use uracil over thymine.
Hope that helps.
Answer:
The classification of organisms as either a prokaryote or a eukaryote is based on the structure of the organism's cell nucleus
Explanation:
The etymology of the word 'karyote' in both 'prokaryote' and 'eukaryote', is derived from a Greek word that explains the nucleus.
An organism having a true nucleus (i.e a nucleus surrounded by a nuclear membrane) in its cell(s), is classified as a eukaryote.
'Eu' in the word 'eukaryote', is derived from a Greek word that means 'true'.
A prokaryote is an organism that lacks a definite nucleus, hence, having its genetic materials suspended freely in the cyoplasm without a special nuclear membrane enclosing it, aside from its plasma membrane.
Answer:
In both cases, the person is deprived of ATP source as the aerobic cellular respiration comes to halt.
Explanation:
At higher altitudes, low oxygen pressure deprives the cells of oxygen to serves as the terminal electron acceptor. In the absence of molecular oxygen, electron transport from NADH and FADH2 to O2 can not generate the proton concentration gradient required for ATP synthesis.
Cyanide poisoning also stops ATP synthesis by inhibiting the electron transfer from cytochrome oxidase to oxygen. Cellular respiration is a source of ATP for living aerobic cells. In the absence of ATP synthesis, the person is deprived of energy sources and feels weakness, dizziness, confusion, and shortness of breath.
Answer:
The correct answer is "GHR-15 is a naturally occurring protein, therefore it would be degrade it if it is taken orally".
Explanation:
GHR-15 is an hormone releaser that elevates the levels of human growth hormone by stimulating the pituitary gland. GHR-15 is a naturally occurring protein, therefore if GHR-15 is taken orally it would not provide any therapeutic benefit because the digestive system would degrade it with gastric acid and the proteasome pathway before it could perform its biological activity. There are some formulations of GHR-15 that are taken orally but they are formulated accordingly to allow this feature.
