Which risk factor does Jack have no control over?a. Obesityb. Geneticsc. Stressd. Atherogenic diete. Jack can change all of these risk factors.
In health, a risk factor is a variable that can make a patient more likely to develop a disease or condition. Additionally, some of these factors can be controlled or changed by the patient, while others cannot be modified. Factors that can be controlled include stress, diet, weight, alcohol intake, and habits. This does not apply to factors such as age or genetics, for example, in the case of genetics, this is determined by the genes of each parent when a human being is formed, and therefore there is not any way to change this; although factors such as diet, stress, or smoking affect the expression of mutations in genes. Thus, the risk factor Jack has no control over is genetics.
Metagenomics is the study of the collective genome of the microorganisms obtain from the environment. The study can provide details of the microbial diversity and ecology for a particular environment. It allows the identification of the specific microbial species from the mixture of genomic samples. The metagenomics is useful in solving the problems related to other fields such as medicine, agriculture, engineering and ecology.
Most of the three-carbon G3P is used to make more RuBP, keeping the Calvin cycle operating. ... ATP and NADPH, which are formed during the light reactions, are both used in the Calvin cycle.
