Andreyy893 years ago

The second law of thermodynamics states that not all of the energy is used because some of the energy is lost in the form of heat. The lost heat energy is an unusable form of energy, and it causes an increase in the entropy of the universe. Thus, no energy transfer process is efficient due to the loss of energy.

My doctor told me that birth control pills contain small amounts of estrogen and progesterone, and these hormones prevent me fro
german
Ok... This is a bit complicated but bear with me. In a female's body Estrogen and Progesterone are two of the major used to maintain the menstruation cycle. Gonadotrophic substances are an entirely different topic with it being the hormones FSH and LH (These hormones are released while an egg is in development in the ovaries). 

Without going into even deeper specifics. Estrogen is used by the body signal to ovulate, as well as thicken the uterine walls... Progesterone is used to maintain the uterine walls "after" the egg is fertilized. What the pill is suppose to do is actually force a premature ovulation, which is why there is estrogen. The Progesterone's job as is maintain the uterine wall's endometrium to a low level and helps keep blood loss from a period at a minimum. 

If you need clarification please feel free to question.

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

c. glycogen molecules with branches containing a single glucose residue

Explanation:

The mutation inhibits the activity of the glucosidase but does not affect the other functions of the enzyme. The researcher then introduces the mutated enzyme into mammalian cells that do not express wild type glycogen debranching enzyme because glycogen molecules with branches containing a single glucose residue (single glucose molecule linked by alpha 1,6 linkage due to mutation in glucosidase activity of debranching enzyme).

Why would a vascular system be an adaptation for a plant on land?
Olin [163]

Answer:

Vascular have a system that is intricate and the plant can move water to distribute it to the whole plant. Vascular plants are able to grow bigger due to this ability. Example of this would be a tree or a flower Non vascular plants are usually small plants that are close to the ground.

Explanation:

Bryophytes, which evolutionarily precede tracheophytes, are plants that lack true vascular tissues by which to circulate liquids. These plants include mosses, hornworts and liverworts. Tracheophytes, which comprise about 93 percent of all land plants, all possess vascular systems that permit the internal circulation of liquids and nutrients.

Valentin [98]

Because wood has a very high specific heat, in opposition to that of metal, whose specific heat is multitudes lower, meaning it will take astronomically longer for a user holding a pot of boiling water to get burned (because the wood will not get up to the temperature of the water for a very long time) than if the handles were metal.

A simple change in DNA results in
Gekata [30.6K]
I believe a simple change in DNA results in Mutation. A mutation is a random spontaneous changes that occur in the genetic make up of an organism ( in the DNA sequences). The mutation are either due to mistakes when DNA are being copied or as a result of environmental factors such as UV light and cigarette smokes among other mutagens. Mutations may be either gene mutation (permanent alteration in the DNA sequence that makes up a  gene) or chromosomal mutation.
