You are at a restaurant where they offer both grass-fed and grain-fed beef, and are trying to decide which is the most sustainab

le choice. Which of the following statements is most logical?
Grain-fed beef is the most sustainable choice. These cattle have a high feed conversion rate, meaning it takes a lot of feed to produce a pound of meat, making it very nutritious.
Grain-fed beef is the most sustainable choice. Cows from feedlot operations are healthier because they are routinely given antibiotics.
Grass-fed beef is the most sustainable choice. These cattle are free to walk around and therefore they grow and gain weight much more rapidly than grain-fed feedlot animals, so you would get more value for your money.
Grass-fed beef is the most sustainable choice. Grass-fed beef represents a net gain for the human food supply because cows eat grasses that we can’t eat (from land that is typically unsuitable for human crops) and turn it into beef that we can eat.

Answer:

Grass-fed beef is the most sustainable choice. Grass-fed beef represents a net gain for the human food supply because cows eat grasses that we can’t eat (from land that is typically unsuitable for human crops) and turn it into beef that we can eat.

Explanation:

Cattle raised on a primarily foraged diet are termed grass-fed or pasture-raised; for example meat or milk may be called grass-fed beef or pasture-raised dairy. The term "pasture-raised" can lead to confusion with the term "free range", which does not describe exactly what the animals eat.

That said, grass-fed cows eat (mostly) grass, while grain-fed cows eat (mostly) an unnatural diet based on corn and soy during the latter part of their lives. To maximize growth, the cows are often given drugs, such as antibiotics and growth hormones.

Explanation:

  • <em>Blood is the primary transporter</em> mode for the transport of components essential for digestion all through the body
  • Red platelets are one of the most significant components of blood
  • Red platelets (rbcs) transport oxygen to the body's tissues and trade it for carbon dioxide which is carried to the lungs for elimination  
  • Red platelets are shaped in the bone marrow of Stem cells in the red bone marrow called hemocytoblasts offer ascent to the entirety of the formed components in blood

Anna007 [38]

A baker has created a new strain of yeast which contains no cytochrome c gene and no cytochrome c protein. this will affect what the yeast strain can do to obtain energy. what will this yeast strain do more of compared to a normal strain

Will this new strain of yeast obtain more or less free energy from glucose in its growing medium?

Answer: Less because cytochrome c is key to the electron transport chain.

Explanation:

The Cytochrome c is an essential component of the electron transport chain. Without this there will be no oxidation and reduction of iron atom will take place which could convert the ferrous ions to ferric ions. Thus the entire process of electron transport chain and energy production in the form of ATP will be compromised. So, there will be no production of energy in the anaerobic fermentation by yeast.

KATRIN_1 [288]
Peristalsis is the involuntary relaxation and constriction of the muscles of the digestive system which causes the movement of food in the digestive system. This is actually one of the reasons why you can eat upside down, however it is not advisable. 

The answer is PERISTALSIS.

A  Kidney/s: They are bean-shaped organs that filter waste products and urea from the blood. The filtering units of kidneys are called nephrons. Along with water, these waste products and urea are what makes up urine.

B. Ureters - 
These are thin tubes that connect the kidney and bladder. From the kidneys, the urine passes through the ureter down to the bladder. These ureters are just about 8 to 10 inches long. The ureters' walls tighten and relax to prevent back flow of urine. 

C. Urinary Bladder - 
The bladder is a hollow and balloon-shaped. It collects the urine from the ureters. The bladder is held up by ligaments that are attached to the pelvic bones and other organs. The bladder has a sphincter that prevents leakage into the end point of the urinary system. 

D. Urethra
- It is a tube that allows the passage of urine out of the body. Men generally have longer urethras than women. In women, the urethra is about 2 inches long and in men, about 8 inches long.
