The human circulatory system processes an average of 20 litres of blood per day through capillary filtration, which removes plasma while leaving the blood cells. Roughly 17 litres of the filtered plasma is reabsorbed directly into the blood vessels, while the remaining three litres remain in the interstitial fluid. One of the main functions of the lymph system is to provide an accessory return route to the blood for the surplus three litres

A different DNA ladder from NEB (Cat #N3200L) comes as 500 uL of a 1000 ug/mL solution and is not pre-mixed with the 6 X DNA loa
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

4 ul Loading Buffer + 19.70 ul dH2O + 0.30 ul DNA Ladder

Load 12 ul on the gel.

Explanation:

DNA Ladder concentration = 1000 ug/ml

1000 ug DNA in 1 ml DNA Ladder solution →    150 ng DNA = 0.15 ug DNA in..... 0.00015 ml = 0.15 ul DNA Ladder solution

6x DNA Loading Buffer → it has to be diluted by an equal volume 6 times (1 ul LB + 1 ul distilled H2O)

An appropriate volume to load on an average agarose gel is 12 ul, so:

2 ul Loading Buffer + 9.85 ul dH2O + 0.15 ul DNA Ladder = 12 ul

But since 0.15 ul is a very small volume and mistakes could be made while measuring it, let's make double:

4 ul Loading Buffer + 19.70 ul dH2O + 0.30 ul DNA Ladder = 24 ul

And load half of that solution (12 ul) on the gel.

Lynna [10]

When looking at a Neuromuscular Junction (NMJ), we know that neurotransmitters (NT) are released from the presynaptic cell and they then bind to the receptors that are located on the postsynaptic cell - this causes the effect of the NT being released.

So we are told that NT are still being released, however they are not having an effect. This would mean that they are probably being blocked by something - in this case, it seems that the neurotoxin is the culprit in the blocking of these receptors.

Therefore, if the NT cannot bind to the receptors on the postsynaptic cell, they are not going to have any effect, no matter how much NT is being released.

So the answer in this case is: The neurotoxin is most likely C) Blocking the receptors on the postsynaptic cell.

If a 2 kg ball is traveling at a speed of 4 m/s, what is its kinetic energy?
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

  • Option D is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is given that a 2 kg ball is traveling at a speed of 4 m/s, so we have to find its kinetic energy.

KE = 1/2 mv²

KE = 1/2 × 2×(4)²

KE = 1/2 × 2×16

KE = 16 J

<u>Some information about Kinetic Energy</u>.

Kinetic Energy is the energy an object has because of its motion. It is directly proportional to the velocity of the particle and its mass. Kinetic energy is given by,

  • KE = ½mv²
  • It occurs due to the motion of the particle.
  • If a particle at rest position, then the kinetic energy will be zero because that particle won't be accelerating.
