Answer:

The given blank can be filled with borderline personality disorder or BPD.

Explanation:

The BPD refers to a mood disorder that affects the manner in which an individual associates with others. It is the most generally known personality disorder. In the condition, an individual may exhibit suicidal behavior, can cause self-injury, and is at risk for eating disorders and substance abuse.  

The biological characteristics exhibiting in individual suffering with BPD are increased activation of the amygdala, lower serotonin function, disturbed connectivity between the prefrontal cortex and the amygdala, and low levels of activity in anterior cingulate cortex.

What were the common causes and risk factors found between the majority of the skin disorders?
Paladinen [302]
Skin is the first line of defense mechanism of our immune system. It acts as a barrier for pathogenic and opportunistic microorganisms. However, skin itself has a microbiota that does not allow other microorganisms to invade or colonize. Any wound, cut or change in the pH of skin due to environmental conditions or any disease might lead to the entry of the opportunistic microorganisms inside the skin. This leads to several skin disorders such as dermatitis, eczema, cellulitis, warts, etc. Thus, it is extremely important to keep the skin hydrated and healthy to avoid any kind of microbial invasion.

natulia [17]

Options for the question are not given. They are as follows:

a. arg or lys

b. ala

c. thr

d. leu or ser

e. Only termination codons

Answer:

d. leu or ser

Explanation:

Four codons code for proline amino acid. These are CCT, CCC, CCA, and CCG. Hydroxylamine causes C to change into T or G to change into A.

If first position is changed in each codon:

CCT = TCT (UCU)

CCC = TCC (UCC)

CCA = TCA (UCA)

CCG = TCG (UCG)

These codons produce Serine amino acid.

If second position is changed in each codon:

CCT = CTT (CUU)

CCC = CTC (CUC)

CCA = CTA (CUA)

CCG = CTG (CUG)

These codons produce Leucine amino acid.

Hence, out of the given options, option d. leu or ser is correct.

Why was the cow insulin an effective substitute for the human insulin?
Ray Of Light [21]
Pork and beef insulins are similar to human insulin, differing only in one or a few amino acids. However, even a slight difference is enough to elicit an allergic response in some people. To overcome this problem, researchers looked for ways to make insulin that would more closely resemble human insulin.

OLga [1]

People who have leukemia, a cancer that affects white blood cells, are often given Cytrabine. This drug inhibits the synthesis of DNA.

S-phase of cell cycle is most affected by Cytrabine because cytrabine interfers with synthesis of DNA and we know that in S-phase of cell cycle synthesis of DNA takes place.
