A buffer is a solution encompassing a weak acid and its conjugate base in alike amounts. This combination reduces the pH change upon addition of strong acid or base by converting H1+ (or OH1-) to weaker acids or bases. This primarily consist of compounds that stabilize the pH of a solution by removing or replacing hydrogen ions. Also, substances that resist change in pH.
The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:
a. The woman with stretch marks has a greater collagen-to-elastic fiber ratio.
b. The woman may have different gender babies.
c. The woman with less stretch marks has larger skin cells.
d. The woman without stretch marks has more cholesterol in her diet, which affects her cell membranes.
Answer:
The woman with stretch marks has a greater collagen-to-elastic fiber ratio.
Explanation:
The stretch marks on the hips, stomach and breast of pregnant women is a very common problem. These stretch marks appear pinkish in color which is very difficult to treat.
These stretch marks are the result of the collagen to elastin ratio which increases and stretches. This stretching happens due to the sudden or rapid increase in the weight of the body or the affected portion.
Thus, the selected option is correct.
Answer:
Organic compounds→ nucleotides→ RNA→ universal code.
Organic compounds are the compounds made by living organisms with at least one molecule of carbon linked to different elements like hydrogen, oxygen, or nitrogen.for example: nucleotides.
A nucleotide is the monomer units of nucleic acids- DNA and RNA. Each nucleotide is made up of organic compounds- sugar, a phosphate molecule and nitrogenous bases (adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine and uracil).
The arrangement of nitrogenous bases in DNA decides the fate of proteins as the sequence of these bases acts as code arranged in the triplet called "codons" which code for specific amino acids.
Thus, Organic compounds→ nucleotides→ RNA→ universal code is the correct answer.
Answer:
The correct answer is - by absorbing too much sodium and water into the cells in the respiratory system.
Explanation:
Cystic fibrosis or CF is a genetic disorder that is caused by the presence of two defective genes that leads to the production of thick and sticky mucus in an individual that affects the respiratory and digestive system by clogging mucus in it.
Due to defective genes, there is an abnormal electrolyte transport system develops in which cells of the respiratory system including the lungs absorb an excessive amount of salt (sodium) and water. It all caused by deletion of the three letters which means an amino acid from a gene that leads to the disruption of the protein that controls the production of the mucus and abnormal electrolyte transport.
Answer:
Genotype ratio 1:1, there are two types of genotype BB and Bb in equal ratio.
Phenotype ratio 1:0, because all offspring have allele B. “B” is dominant and there is no bb genotype, so recessive trait will not be shown.
Explanation:
