Answer:

The correct answer is option d)"II and III".

Explanation:

The circadian rhythm is a cycle that involves multiple that involve physical, mental, and behavioral changes occurring during a day time period of time. Therefore, only changes occurring in a 24 hours span are considered part of the circadian rhythm. Two examples are the body temperature following a regular pattern of increases and decreases each day, and the body secreting the hormone melatonin at night. A healthy person experiences a change in its body temperature of about 0.5 °C each day, with the lower temperature occurring in the morning and the higher temperature occurring at night. Regarding the hormone melatonin, the body secretes this hormone during night and helps people to relax and sleep.

<em>A circadian rhythm /sɜːrˈkeɪdiən/ is any biological process that displays an endogenous, entrainable oscillation of about 24 hours. These 24-hour rhythms are driven by a circadian clock, and they have been widely observed in plants, animals, fungi, and cyanobacteria.</em>

Which of the following promotes closure of the minivalves associated with lymph capillaries?
Molodets [167]

Answer:

increasing pressure inside the lymph capillary

Explanation:

Lymph is a fluid like the blood which carry the White blood cells which can fight against the infection. The lymph flows in separate vessels called lymphatic vessels.

The lymphatic vessel is very thin-walled smooth muscle containing tube-like structure which allows the transport of lymph.

The lymph vessel like blood vessel contains the valves called mini valves which prevent the backward flow of the lymph.

When the pressure in the tiny lymph capillaries which supplies lymph to the organs increases, the mini valves closes to prevent backflow of lymph and is the mechanism of lymph flow.

Thus, the selected option is the correct answer.

The ph of the water in several lakes in norway and sweden had decreased to below 5.0 due to an increase in acid rain. What is mo
arsen [322]

Answer:

What will most likely happen in these lakes is that there will be a decline of several fish populations. The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

The options attached to the question are given below:

A. The decline of several fish populations

B. An increase in the number of fish.

C. An increase in the number of primary producers.

D. Increased predator- prey relationship.

The fishes, just like any other living organisms has ideal body temperature and pH at which they act best. The ideal pH for fish living in lake water is between 6 and 8. If the pH is reduced below this value then the water will become acidic and this will be toxic for the fish population living in the lakes. Therefore, those fish that can not cope will die and there will be a decrease in the fish populations.

In general, why might cell-wall inhibiting antimicrobial drugs be less effective on gram-negative bacteria compared to gram-posi
asambeis [7]

Cell-wall inhibiting antimicrobial drugs be less effective on gram-negative bacteria compared to gram-positive bacteria because the outer membrane of the gram-negative bacteria inhibits penetration of the drug and the peptidoglycan found in gram-positive bacteria is structurally different from that in gram-negative bacteria.  

Answer: Option B & C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Antimicrobial drugs are induced into a body to act on that particular selective bacterium which causes disease. When antimicrobial drugs are injected they act efficiently on the gram positive bacteria inhibiting the proliferation of the cells by acting on the cell wall so that cell multiplication doesn’t happen.

On the other hand it is hard to act on the gram-negative bacteria as it has a cell membrane that inhibits drug penetration into it. Both cell walls contain peptidoglycan but in the gram-positive is more assembled and layered while in the gram-negative it is just a thin layer. As gram-positive is thick layered it provides place for another molecule to attach to it but the thin layer in gram-negative inhibits it.
