Corn is a popular feed for pigs because it is high in carbohydrates. However, it has a very low level of the amino acid lysine,

so farmers usually add high-lysine feeds to the corn. Which statement BEST explains why lysine levels in pig feed are important?

Answer:

The first limiting essential amino acid in most swine rations is lysine.

Explanation:

A limiting factor can be simply define as a variable of a ration (we are talking of feed) that if there is a slight change in its volume or concentration will lead to a change in output.

Swine by standard requires ten (10) essential amino acids but the major limiting essential amino acid needed are lysine, methionine, threonine and tryptophan. If these amino acids requirements are met, other amino acids will be sorted out.

Lysine level in pig feed is very important because it is the first limiting essential amino acid. When the diet of a pig is formulated on the basis of lysine content, this usually leads to adequate levels of the remaining essential amino acid required.

Answer:

Lysine is important because it is very essential for the body functions of a pig.

Explanation:

Pigs require high levels of lysine, an amino acid. Without enough of this, muscle proteins cannot be formed because amino acids cannot combine correctly. Lysine is essential for body function. Corn diets can only provide pigs with limited lysine and this is not up to what is needed in a pigs nutrition. If the pig is consuming enough lysine then it can use other essential amino acids.

Morning! I just need some help with this question! Ex. If it is A and it is mitosis then you would put A-Mitosis
polet [3.4K]

In cell biology, mitosis (/maɪˈtoʊsɪs/) is a part of the cell cycle in which replicated chromosomes are separated into two new nuclei. Cell division gives rise to genetically identical cells in which the total number of chromosomes is maintained. Therefore, mitosis is also known as equational division. In general, mitosis is preceded by S phase of interphase (during which DNA replication occurs) and is often followed by telophase and cytokinesis; which divides the cytoplasm, organelles and cell membrane of one cell into two new cells containing roughly equal shares of these cellular components. The different stages of mitosis altogether define the mitotic (M) phase of an animal cell cycle—the division of the mother cell into two daughter cells genetically identical to each other. So yes i would put A-Mitosis

Closed intranuclear pleuromitosis is typical of Foraminifera, some Prasinomonadida, some Kinetoplastida, the Oxymonadida, the Haplosporidia, many fungi ( chytrids, oomycetes, zygomycetes, ascomycetes ), and some Radiolaria ( Spumellaria and Acantharia ...

Closed extranuclear pleuromitosis occurs in Trichomonadida and Dinoflagellata.

Closed orthomitosis is found among diatoms, ciliates, some Microsporidia, unicellular yeasts and some multicellular fungi.

Semiopen pleuromitosis is typical of most Apicomplexa.

Semiopen orthomitosis occurs with different variants in some amoebae ( Lobosa) and some green flagellates (e.g., Raphidophyta or Volvox ).

Alex_Xolod [135]
Muscle contraction that results in a change in joint angle is called <span>concentric contraction.
This contraction occurs when enough force that can overcome the resistance applied is developed by the muscle where this force developed is larger than the force of the resistance applied.</span>

Which act prompted the developers to install stormwater management systems to handle the movement of polluted water?
Gre4nikov [31]
Natural landscapes such as forests, the soil absorbs much of the stormwater and plants help hold stormwater close to where it falls. In developed environments, unmanaged stormwater can create two major issues: one related to the volume and timing of runoff water (flooding) and the other related to potential contaminants that the water is carrying (water pollution).
