Answer:

Explanation:

En biología, se llama organismo o ser vivo a un individuo singular y diferenciado, compuesto por un conjunto de materia orgánica jerarquizada y especializada. Lo constituyen sistemas de transmisión y comunicación bioquímica, que le permiten conservar su equilibrio interno a la vez que intercambiar materia y energía con el entorno que lo rodea. Dicho en otras palabras, un organismo es una entidad viviente, dotada de la capacidad de nutrirse, crecer, reproducirse y morir.

Todos los organismos conocidos, con excepción de los virus, están formados por células, y poseen un metabolismo que les permite garantizar su existencia y dar pie a sus procesos biológicos a cambio de intercambiar energía con el medio ambiente. El fin último de todo organismo parece ser la reproducción, esto es, la perpetuación de su especie y la transmisión de su material genético (herencia).

Químicamente hablando, los seres vivos se distinguen de la naturaleza que los rodea en su composición casi exclusiva a base de carbono, hidrógeno, oxígeno y nitrógeno, es decir, a base de moléculas orgánicas, estructuradas de manera muy diferente a las moléculas inorgánicas de la materia inerte.

What is the outer surface of Schwann cell in adjective form
NARA [144]
I am not sure if this question means the adjective form or the adjacent form? However, a Schwann cell is a type of glial cell and its main function is to support neurons. Adjacent to the Schwann cell are nodes of Ranvier which are gaps in the myelinated axons, and are believed to assist in potential generation among other things.

Chargaff's Rule. If there is 20% Adenine in the cell, what is the percentage of Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine found in the same
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

A= 20%

G= 30%

T= 20%

C= 30%

Explanation:

Recall that the sum of all nitrogenous bases in the DNA nucleotide is equal to 100%. And specific base pairings of Adenine to Thymine (A=T), and Cytosine to Guanine (C=G) must be equal.

So, the percentage of Adenine equal thymine, and that of cytosine equals guanine.

Now, A + T + C + G = 100%

So, if Adenine makes up 20% of the DNA nucleotides, Thymine is also 20%.

Then, 20% + 20% + C + G = 100%

40% + C + G = 100%

C + G = 100% - 40% = 60%

So, divide 60% by 2 to obtain the individual percentage of cytosine and guanine. Each will take 30%

Finally, A= 20%; G= 30%; T= 20%; C= 30%

Since each myofibril is attached at either end of the muscle fiber, when sarcomeres shorten, the muscle fiber
zmey [24]

Answer:

B. Shortens

Explanation:

Myofibrils are components of the animal skeletal muscles that are made up of sacromeres. They perform the muscular contraction and relaxation via the sliding filament model.

To produce motion, A cross-bridge forms between actin and the myosin heads triggering shortening of the sacromere. This shortening of the sacromere results in the contraction of the muscle fibers, which the net effect can be seen to be a shortening of the fibers
