Answer:

Hello!

Here are the definitions:

  1. DNA: The genetic carrier in living organisms that contains all the information required for the growth and development of an organism.  
  2. Synthesis: The creation of something, production of compounds in living  things .
  3. Adenine: A purine (double ringed) nucleobase found in DNA and RNA.
  4. Guanine: Occurs in both DNA and RNA, a purine (double ringed) nucleobase .
  5. Cytosine: Single ringed, 6-carbon, nitrogen containing,  pyrimidine nucleobase that exists in both DNA and RNA.
  6. Thiamine: Single ringed, 6-carbon, nitrogen containing , pyrimidine nucleobase that exists in DNA only.
  7. Enzyme: A complex, globular protein that helps in  catalyzing chemical reactions in the body.
  8. Helicase (Unzipper): An enzyme involved in DNA  replication that unzips the DNA double helix by breaking  hydrogen bonds between the nucleobases.
  9. DNA Polymerase (Builder): An enzyme that polymerizes  nucleobases and extends RNA primers into complete  DNA strands.
  10. Primase (Preparer for building): An enzyme that  prepares the RNA primer required by DNA polymerase for  forming DNA starnds.
  11. Ligase (Gluing enzyme): An enzyme that glues different  fragments of DNA and RNA together.
  12. DNA Replication: The process by which DNA makes a  copy of itself through the use of DNA replication  enzymes.
  13. Origin: The origin or origin of replication is the point on the DNA where replication starts. This part of DNA basically contains sites that the replication enzymes can recognize.
  14. Double Helix: A term that describes the structure of DNA that consists of two linear, antiparallel DNA strands that twist around each other, giving the appearance of a twisted ladder.
  15. Antiparallel: A term used to describe the direction of DNA strands in a double helix. It means that the two strands run parallel to each other but in opposite directions.
  16. 3' (3 prime): The sugar phosphate backbone of DNA contains phosphate groups bonded to 3' and 5' carbon atoms of the ribose. The end of the sugar phosphate backbone that contains the free hydroxyl (OH-) end is called the 3' end.
  17. 5' (5 prime):  The end of the backbone that contains a free 5' phosphate is called the 5' end.
  18. Semiconservative Replication: A mechanism of DNA replication that generates two copies of a single double helix in which one strand comes from the template and one is newly synthesized.

About this much of the energy released from food molecules during catabolism is released as heat:______.
lorasvet [3.4K]

About this much of the energy released from food molecules during catabolism is released as heat: adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

The Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the source of the energy for the use and the storage at the cellular level. The structure of the ATP is a nucleoside triphosphate, consisting of the nitrogenous base (adenine), and ribose sugar, and the three serially bonded phosphate groups

ATP is synthesized in the mitochondria is the primary energy source for the important biological functions, such as the muscle contraction, the nerve impulse transmission, and the protein synthesis

In general, the main energy source for the cellular metabolism is the glucose, which is the catabolized in the three subsequent processes—the glycolysis, tricarboxylic and acid cycle (TCA or Krebs

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

B/ Because the electrolyte rich baths were infused with in consistent amount of Ach.

Explanation:

Why B? Because the electrolyte rich baths were infused with in consistent amount of Ach. Used concentrations * Ach used, thus we get double the result.

Not A: Because the control need to be used.

Not C: Because autoimmune antibodies are transported to every tissue of body including skeletal muscle.

Not D: Mice and other rodents are often used as animal models.
