Answer:
electromagnetic waves can travel in a vacuum
Explanation:
The reason why taq polymerase is used is because it is thermostable, meaning that it can remain intact and reactive after being exposed to the cycles of high temperatures that are used in PCR (an upwards of 94 degrees Celsius). If human DNA polymerase were used instead, it would immediately unfold and become inactive after the first round of high temperatures, effectively ceasing the PCR.
Answer:
Study of living organisms is called Biology.
Explanation: B.I.O means life,
L.O.G.Y. means study
It is basically methodological study of life and living things which has been further divided into two:
- Zoology: Study of Animals.
- Botany: Study of Plants.
Explanation:
Methemoglobin (metHb) is an oxidized derivative of hemoglobin in which heme iron is in the ferric (Fe3+) or oxidized state rather than the ferrous (Fe2+) or reduced state. Small amounts of methemoglobin normally are formed daily, associated with the release of oxygen from hemoglobin (auto-oxidation).
Methemoglobin cannot bind oxygen, which means it cannot carry oxygen to tissues. It is bluish chocolate-brown in color. In human blood a trace amount of methemoglobin is normally produced spontaneously, but when present in excess the blood becomes abnormally dark bluish brown. The NADH-dependent enzyme methemoglobin reductase (a type of diaphorase) is responsible for converting methemoglobin back to hemoglobin.
Normally one to two percent of a person's hemoglobin is methemoglobin; a higher percentage than this can be genetic or caused by exposure to various chemicals and depending on the level can cause health problems known as methemoglobinemia. A higher level of methemoglobin will tend to cause a pulse oximeter to read closer to 85% regardless of the true level of oxygen saturation. An abnormal increase of methemoglobin will increase the oxygen binding affinity of normal hemoglobin, resulting in a decreased unloading of oxygen to the tissues.
A converging lens focuses the diverging, or blurred, light rays from a distant object by refracting (bending) the rays twice. ... This double bending causes the rays to converge at a focal point behind the lens so that a sharper image can be seen or photographed.
(Thus making the vision clear)
