Anabolic steroids are synthetic forms of the male hormone testosterone that are used to cause muscle hypertrophy.
It is properly knowns as anabolic-androgenic steroids (AAS). They are anabolic in nature and increases the protein found within the cells especially in the skeletal muscles. It also has varying degrees of androgenic and virilizing effect which includes inducing the development and maintenance of male secondary sexual characteristics such as facial and hair body growth.
In the 1930s AAS were synthesized and are recently used as a therapeutic medicine to stimulate muscle growth, increase appetite, induce puberty in males and treat wasting conditions among cancer and AIDS patients. It was also acknowledged by the American College of Sports Medicine that AAS, when joined with an adequate diet, can contribute to increasing the body weight, often as lean mass increases and the gains in muscular strength are achieved by doing high-intensity workout and proper diet.
Answer:
Ca(OH)2 (aq)
Explanation:
The balanced neutralization reaction i.e. a reaction between an acid and a base, in this question is given as follows:
H2SO4(aq) + Ca(OH)2(aq) → CaSO4(aq) + 2H2O(l)
According to Arrhenius in his definition of acid and base, a base is a substance that dissociates into hydroxide ions (OH-) when in an aqueous solution. In other words, a base increases the concentration of hydroxide ions when dissolved.
In this reaction, Ca(OH)2 releases the OH- (hydroxide ion) that combines with the hydrogen ion (H+) released by the acid, H2SO4, to form water (H2O). Hence, Ca(OH)2 (aq) is the BASE.
Answer:
<em>The correct option is B) Freshwater snails and small fish</em>
Explanation:
As we can see from the food web, the fresh water snails and the small fishes both feed on algae and water plants as their source of food hence, both these organisms feed on the same food.
Other options, like option C, is not correct because water boatman and water plants do not feed on the same sources. Water boatman feeds on reeds whereas water plants do not. Water plants will make their own food.
Answer:
During metaphase, the cell's chromosomes align themselves in the middle of the cell through a type of cellular "tug of war." The chromosomes, which have been replicated and remain joined at a central point called the centromere, are called sister chromatids
