Lizzie loves to stargaze at night. She has noticed that the moon appears to change shape over the course of the month, and she w

ants to investigate why this happens. She hypothesizes that the relationship of the sun, Earth, and moon creates shadows on the moon. She sets up an experiment with a lightbulb to represent the sun, a large beach ball to represent Earth, and a smaller foam ball to represent the moon. She researches the position of the sun, Earth, and moon at different times of a month and makes a model of the entire system.
Perform the following:

Identify the parts of the scientific method in Lizzie's experiment.
List at least three variables Lizzie should control during the experiment.
For each variable identified, give a specific suggestion for how Lizzie can control it.

Answer:

1. observation, investigation,hypothesis, experiment, result

2. lightbulb, beach ball and foam ball

3. she  can check the movement and position of the three variable with respect to each other

Explanation:

1. The different stages of the experiment depicted in this decription are

  • observation - She observed the changing shape of moon
  • Question - she questioned why this is happening
  • investigation- She want to investigate the reason behind the changing shape of moon
  • hypothesis - she establish a hypothesis that relationship of the sun, Earth, and moon creates shadows on the moon which causes different shapes of moon
  • experiment- She conduct an experiment by creating a prototype of arrangement of sun , earth and moon in natural world
  • result - she discuss the results.

The changes in the grape juice happened due to the alcoholic fermentation of the grape juice that occurs due to the presence of aerobic bacteria. The presence of yeast is the main reason behind the process of fermentation taking place. The froth is produced due to the presence of the formation of acid and carbon dioxide.

What disease is most associated with Clostridium perfringens?
Vilka [71]

Answer:

The correct option is : c. gas gangrene      

Explanation:

Gas gangrene is a serious bacterial infection caused by the infection of the Clostridium perfringens bacteria. This bacteria is always present in the nature and is a rod-shaped, gram-positive bacteria, that belongs to the Clostridium genus.  

This disease can cause gas production in gangrene, death of the muscle tissues and also sepsis.

<u>Therefore, Gas gangrene is most associated with the bacteria Clostridium perfringens.</u>

What role can exosomes play in disease treatment? who can tell me detailed information? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Exosomes as Therapeutic Target

Given the fact that elevated exosome levels are often correlated with greater severity of different types of cancer, reducing circulating exosomes to normal levels is one of therapeutic strategies to increase treatment efficacy. There are different approaches to modulate exosome production: 1) Inhibition of exosome formation: inhibit crucial proteins involved in exosome formation pathway; 2) Inhibition of exosome release: inhibit important regulators of exosome release process, increased intracellular Ca2+, change cellular microenvironmental pH; 3) Inhibition of exosome uptake: add proteinase for surface proteins on exosomes may serve as receptors for uptake pathways. In addition to control exosomes production, removal of exosomes from the entire circulatory system might be a novel strategy for cancer treatment.

Exosomes could also be used as cancer immunotherapy becasue tumor-derived exosomes carry antigens that is a great source of specific stimulus for the immune response against tumors. Both tumor-derived and dendritic cell-derived exosomes have showed capability to stimulate tumor antigen-specific responses in experimental animal models and human clinical trials.

Exosomes as Targeted Drug Delivery Vehicles

Exosomes became one of the most common methods applied in drug delivery system because of several advantages they have. Firstly, exosomes normally have a small size 40-100 nm, which is more homogenous compared to other microvesicles. This will lead them to evade rapid clearance by the mononuclear phagocyte and enhances passage through fenestrations in the vessel wall. Secondly, due to their endogenous origin, they are less toxic for and better tolerated by the immune system. It facilitates them to avoid causing side effects that normally occur with synthetic nanoparticles. Additionally, the specific ligand or protein expressed on the exosome surface increases efficiency of cargo into the cytosol of the target cell, and therefore fewer off-target effects. Exosomes are generally found most useful as a drug delivery medium in cancer therapy, anti-inflammation and gene interference therapy such as transferring of miRNA.

There are different kinds of cargos encapsulated by exosomes, especially like siRNA or miRNA. The delivery of RNA is attracting because they are rapid degradation in cell circulation and have the limitation in passing through the membrane and in cellular uptake. Chemotherapeutics loaded into exosomes is also used for cancer therapy such as doxorubicin. In principle, there are four key components to achieve correct functionality and efficacy during exosomes drug delivery:1) Choosing the donor cell type to produce drug-carrying exosomes; 2) Using correspond methods to encapsulate the exosomes cargo; 3) Enhancing the specificity of cargo delivery by targeting peptides on the surface of the exosomes; 4) Administrating exosomes to target the area of disease.

During the Apollo program, astronauts played golf on the moon.How do you think the moons low gravity affected their game?
AlladinOne [14]
The golf would weigh less than a gram, and the ball, if hit hard, would fly at least very far away due to the kinetic energy without any atmospheric drag.
