The correct answer is A. Skin

Explanation:

In biology and related fields, an organ refers to structures composed of tissues that have a similar or same function. This includes organs such as kidneys, heart, lungs, among others. In the case of skin, this is considered an organ because the cells and tissue that composed skin serve to same purposes that include protecting the body from pathogens, regulating temperature and collecting stimulus related to sensations.

Moreover, the skin is the largest organ in the body because this can be found along all the body acting as an outer covering, while other organs are limited to one location, for example, the heart is only found in the chest, while the skin is the outer covering of the inner structures and tissues.

In muscle cells, fermentation produces _____. In muscle cells, fermentation produces _____. carbon dioxide, ethanol, and NAD car
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

In muscle cell, fermetation produces <u>"lactate and NAD"</u>

<u>In fermentation Pyruvate is reduced and __NADH__ is oxidized.</u>

Explanation:

Muscle cells perform lactic acid fermentation when enough oxygen is not available to support aerobic cellular respiration. The process of glycolysis forms two molecules of pyruvate from one glucose molecule and uses NAD+ as electron acceptor. During lactic acid fermentation, pyruvate is reduced into lactate and NADH serves as an electron donor. The final products are lactate and NAD+. The reaction is catalyzed by lactate dehydrogenase enzyme. The NAD+ produced by fermentation is required to continue the process of glycolysis.

Three human disorders−−fragile X syndrome, myotonic dystrophy, and Huntington's disease−−are conceptually linked by a common mod
Fed [463]

Answer:

The correct answer is ''All three are caused by disparate genes, but each gene was found to contain repeats of a unique trinucleotide sequence.''

Explanation:

Four groups of trinucleotide repeats related to DNA expansion have been characterized in the human genome. CGGI GCC, CAGIGTC, CTGIGAC and recently GW CTT sequences. The CGGl GCC sequences are usually located in the noncoding regions of different genes and when expanded they associate with fragile sites on the chromosomes. The CAGIGTC repeats are part of the coding region and are related to different neurodegenerative disorders. You can try to make a classification depending on the unit that is repeated, having on one side a group that are caused by repeats of the CAG trinucleotide (cytosine, adenine, guanine). Huntington's disease (HD) is a progressive disorder of motor, cognitive and psychic function. The disease is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner, and is caused by the expansion of CAG trinucleotide repeats in exon 1 of the gene called huntingtin (HTT or IT-15). Unstable mutations have also been found in which the repeat unit does not is composed of three nucleotides, if not four, such as type 2 myotonic dystrophy, where the tetranucleotide CCTG repeats. Fragile X Syndrome consists of an abnormal expansion of the cytosine-guanine-guanine trinucleotide (CGG) in the FMR1 gene, which prevents intellectual disability and also influences the formation of connective tissue
