Which statement about the cell membrane is true?

According to the model, what is the role of RNA in DNA replication? A) RNA has no role in DNA replication B) RNA acts as a prime

rjkz [21]

The answer is B. Primase produces RNA, making it a type of RNA polymerase. RNA is complimentary to a single strand of DNA.

Use the Harris-Benedict equation to estimate your calorie needs. Show your calculations to explain how you arrived at your answe

Ratling [72]

Answer:

The Harris Benedict Equation is a formula that determines the total daily energy expenditure (calories) using BMR with some activity factors.

Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is defined as the amount of calories one would burn without doing anything for 24 hours. It uses variables of weight, age, height and gender to calculate BMR.

BMR calculation = 447.593 + (9.247 x weight in kg) + (3.098 x height in cm) - (4.330 x age in years)

In Harris Benedict Equation, BMR is multiplied by activity factor to determine calories need.

The activity factors in Harris Benedict Equation are:

for no exercise = 1.2

exercise for 1 to 3 days/week or light exercise = 1.375

exercise for 3-5 days/week or moderate exercise = 1.55

exercise for 6-7 days a week or hard exercise = 1.725

exercise for 2 times training = 1.9

So, calculation for my calorie needs is as following:

BMR = 447.593 + (9.247 x 50 kg) + (3.098 x 164.592 cm) - (4.330 x 23 in years) = 974.945

Calorie needs = BMR x 1.55

= 974.945 x 1.55

= 1511.16 calories

) You treat some cells with a proteolytic enzyme that is too large to penetrate the cell membrane (Set 1). Another group of cell

Advocard [28]

Answer:

Proten W

Explanation:

SDS-PAGE gel is a method used for the separation of proteins in which proteins are separated based on their length (smaller proteins move faster through the gel, due to less resistance).

When treated with proteolytic enzymes, proteins are cut and become short fragment. This means that the fragments formed after the use of proteolytic enzymes, will move faster and thus, migrate a longer distance. Proteolytic enzymes in Set 2 cells will act only on plasma membrane proteins (because they cannot penetrate), while in Set 2 they will act on both, plasma membrane and interior proteins. Control group will have only the large fragments (not treated with enzyme).

Protein W travels the same distance on a gel of proteins from Set 1 and Set 2, but different than control group. It means that the proteolytic enzyme worked the same on Set 1 and Set 2.

A huge amount of water − 7 to 9 l − moves from the blood into the bowel every day, through osmosis and digestive secretions. sin

Alexus [3.1K]

The event order should be:

1. Ingesting food, the small bowel filled with food solutes and become hypertonic. It will attract water from the blood which is hypotonic
2. Food digested, some of it absorbed. The osmotic pressure inside bowel will be reduced.
3. All food is absorbed, the osmotic pressure reduced significantly makes it hypotonic. The blood attracts water as it is hypertonic. This will increase the blood volume

What is the exchange of alleles between homologous chromosomes during meiosis as a result of crossing over

Zanzabum

Crossing over occurs between prophase 1 and metaphase 1 and is the process where homologous chromosomes pair up with each other and exchange different segments of their genetic material to form recombinant chromosomes. It can also happen during mitotic division, which may result in loss of heterozygosity.
