The presence of a fever is usually related to stimulation of the body's immune response. Fever can support the immune system's attempt to gain advantage over infectious agents, such as viruses and bacteria, and it makes the body less favorable as a host for replicating viruses and bacteria, which are temperature sensitive. Infectious agents are not the only causes of fever, however. Amphetamine abuse and alcohol withdrawal can both elicit high temperatures, for example. And environmental fevers--such as those associated with heat stroke and related illnesses--can also occur.
The hypothalamus, which sits at the base of the brain, acts as the body's thermostat. It is triggered by floating biochemical substances called pyrogens, which flow from sites where the immune system has identified potential trouble to the hypothalamus via the bloodstream. Some pyrogens are produced by body tissue; many pathogens also produce pyrogens. When the hypothalamus detects them, it tells the body to generate and retain more heat, thus producing a fever. Children typically get higher and quicker fevers, reflecting the effects of the pyrogens upon an inexperienced immune system.
Oswald Avery in 1944 discoveries DNA was responsible for storing and passing information throughout generations
Answer:
D. It can function independently
Explanation:
A. Not a haploid, the daughter cell is going to be a diploid cell, because it is a body cell, not a sex cell; they are suppose to have the same amount of chromosomes as the parent cells.
B. It will go through cytokineses ( last step of the mitosis) the cells will not be connected to parent cell and is independent (D)
C. Inside the chromosomes, no matter it is a haploid or diploid cell, it will contain DNA.
D. After going through the cell cycle, the new daughter cell produced will be a new individual and do not connect to other cells.
Answer:
The correct option is <em>B) ultraviolet region, especially below a wavelength of 320 nm.</em>
Explanation:
Ultraviolet light carries an enormous amount of energy in it. It is invisible to the human eye. When UV light with enormous energy and wavelength lesser than 320nm, hits the DNA, it causes changes in the structure of the DNA. Mostly, it affects the thymine nitrogenous base regions and forms pyrimidine dimers. The structure of the DNA changes on all the sites where dimers form and hence, they cannot be properly transcribed.
Solve the
potential energy at point B
PE = mgh
Where m is
the mass
G is the
acceleration due to gravity 9.8 m/s2
H is the height
PE = ( 1.5
kg) ( 9.8 m/s2) (0.5 m)
PE = 7.35 J
Solve the
velocity using the
KE = 0.5mv^2
Where ke is
the kinetic energy
M is the
mass
V is the
velocity
Since all
energy is converted to KE
So KE = PE
7.35 = 0.53(1.5)
v^2
V = 3.13 m/s
