Answer:

The correct answer is - reduced thoracic (lung) compliance.

Explanation:

Reduced lung compliance is characterized by the stiffness in the lung and required extra work to internalize normal volume of the air in the thoracic cavity.

It is caused as the lungs, in this case, are become fibrotic, become stiffer and distensibility. Due to the enzyme activity elastic tissue becomes damaged in case of emphysema in highly compliant lungs.

Thus, the correct answer is - reduced thoracic compliance.

Explain the purposes of gene expression studies. Describe the use of DNA microarray assays and explain how they facilitate such
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Both gene expression and DNA micro array study about the expression of gene during different stages of development.

Explanation:

The main purpose of gene expression studies is to determine the level of mRNA expressed at different stages of transcription in a tissue or at different stages of cellular development. If a gene is not “ON” during synthesis of RNA and protein, then the desired proteins are not produced. Such studies allow us to turn on such genes.  

DNA microarray  assays easily identify and determine the network of gene expression across the entire genome. The common application of DNA microarray include – mutation analysis and detection, assessment of gene cop, immunoassays etc.

Which is the order of airflow during inhalation?
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Nasal cavity, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, alveoli.

Explanation:

The air travels through the respiratory system during inhalation in the next order:

  1. <em><u>Nasal cavity:</u></em> You inhale air into your nose.
  2. <u><em>Larynx:</em></u> The air travels down to this organ, a hollow, tubular structure that plays a key role in phonation, respiration, and deglutition.
  3. <u><em>Trachea:</em></u> (Or <em>windpipe</em>) is a wide, hollow and cartilaginous tube that connects the larynx to the bronchi.
  4. <em><u>Bronchi:</u></em> The trachea divides into two primary bronchi; they are the main passageway into the lungs.
  5. <em><u>Bronchioles: </u></em>The bronchi develop smaller the closer they get to the lung tissue and are then consider bronchioles.
  6. <em><u>Alveoli:</u></em> They are tiny air sacs located at the end of the bronchioles, which is the site of oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange in the respiratory system.

How is ATP created in photosynthesis?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The correct answer is option e, that is, a, b and c.  

Explanation:

The phenomenon by which green plants and other species converts light energy into chemical energy is termed as photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, the energy of the light is captivated and is utilized to transform carbon dioxide, water, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic components.  

With the transport of electron through the chloroplast membrane, the energy of the electron causes the diffusion of a hydrogen ion from stroma into the thylakoid lumen, which further leads to a formation of hydrogen ion concentration gradient. This gradient ultimately results in the formation of ATP.
