The storm gutters of a large city empty into an ocean bay. A mechanic shop, unable to afford proper disposal, begins dumping its

used car fluids, like motor oil, into the gutters instead. How will this impact the marine life of the bay?The pollutants will not impact marine life in the bay.
1 The pollutants will not impact marine life in the bay.
2 The pollutants will dissolve in the freshwater of the bay.
3 The pollutants will disrupt oxygen absorption in fish.
4 The pollutants will kill all marine mammals in the bay.

Describe how a volcano would form along a divergent boundary convergent boundary and hotspot
daser333 [38]
For divergent boundary: when the crust of the earth fractures it allows magma to reach the surface. For convergent boundary: When one of the converging plates move underneath the other, a process also known as subduction; the new magma rises and can erupt to form volcanos. For the Hotspot: magma pushes through cracks in the crust to form volcanos. Hope this helps!!

The bulk of carbon dioxide is carried chemically combined with the amino acids of hemoglobin as carbaminohemoglobin in the RBCs.
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: True

Explanation:Carbon dioxide is transported is transfer in 3 basic ways to human cells.

About 20 % of C0 2 is transported as Carbaminohemoglobin to reach the lungs carbon dioxide binds directly to the amino acid moieties on the globin portions of the haemoglobin to form carbaminohemoglobin. This is a reversible reaction as shown below.

                                        CO2 + Hb ↔ HbCO2.

The reversible binding of C02 to the haemoglobin is due to the   the partial pressure of carbondioxde. In  the  lungs the partial pressure of C02 is low. Therefore C02 is unbounded from the HB and leaves in the lungs, thus the blood   leaving the lungs for the body tissues has low partial pressure C02. Compare to the blood in the tissues with high partial pressure of C02 from metabolic activities of cellular respiration. The C02 therefore diffuses from the tissues to bind with HB to form Carbaminoheamologbin.

In addition C02 is transported by other means.

1. As bicarbonate 70% of the Co2 in the blood is transported and  bicarbonate buffer.

              CO2 + H2O CA ↔ H2CO3↔H+ + HCO3

2, As  soluble carbon dioxide which  dissolves directly  in to the blood stream; this is about 7-10%

You are studying nuclear lamins and use recombinant DNA technology to alter the coding sequence of a nuclear lamin gene. The alt
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Nuclear lamins will no longer disassemble during mitosis

Explanation:

The nuclear lamina is a fibrillar network inside the nucleus of eukaryotic cells, between the inner nuclear membrane and the peripheral chromatin. Nuclear lamins (also called simply lamin proteins) are intermediate filament-type proteins and represent the major building blocks of the nuclear lamina. During mitosis, the nuclear lamina is disassembled by hyperphosphorylation of nuclear lamins and lamina-associated proteins. The protein responsible for phosphorylating nuclear lamins is p34cdc2, a protein kinase that has a key role in controlling cell cycle progression. In consequence, a mutant form of the nuclear lamin proteins that cannot be phosphorylated will no longer be able to disassemble during mitosis.

True or False. Helper T cells secrete chemicals known as cytokines which cause proliferation of B cells into antibody-secreting
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

There are several types of cytokines used in cell signaling; interferons, interleukins, tumor necrotic factor, and chemokines. T helper cells mainly produce interleukins. When activated by Antigen-Presenting-cells, t-helper cells produce interleukins that activate B cells and is significant in their proliferation during an infection.
