The diaphragm lies inferior to the organs in the thoracic cavity

Answer:

Inferior.

Explanation:

Diaphragm is present at the bottom of the thoracic cavity. Diaphragm consists of the sheet of the internal skeletal muscles and plays an important in the respiration process.

Diaphragm separates the thoracic cavity and contains the lungs and hearts. The diaphragm lies inferior to the organs of the thoracic cavity. The inferior surface the roof of the abdominal cavity. The organs of the thoracic cavity converge at the central tendon.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

Answer:

comparative anatomy:

compares the genomes of different organisms

compares the limbs of different organisms

molecular biology:

compares fossilized structures to living organisms

compares cells of organisms

EXPLANATION:

Comparative anatomy is the study of similarities and differences in the anatomy of different species.

Molecular Biology is the field of biology that studies the composition, structure and interactions of cellular molecules – such as nucleic acids and proteins – that carry out the biological processes essential for the cell's functions and maintenance.

Under anaerobic conditions, such as intense exercise, pyruvate is converted to ____________ . This 3-carbon molecule travels thr

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Under anaerobic conditions, such as intense exercise, pyruvate is converted to lactate. This 3-carbon molecule travels through the blood to the liver, where it can be converted to glucose by the cori cycle.

Under aerobic conditions, pyruvate enters the mitochondrion, where it is converted to acetyle CoA . This 2-carbon molecule goes on to participate in a series of oxidative reactions called the Citric acid cycle.

Explanation:

In the question ,among the given 6 options ,the simplest way to find the answer can be ,to find either the option is aerobic (presence of free oxygen ) or anaerobic (lack of free oxygen). Among the options , glucose is an incorrect option as it is a carbohydrate and used in respiration process .In aerobic process ,the glucose can be break down but in anaerobic ,it can only be used.

Other option is ATP- ATP is the energy source of the cell and used for storing energy or reactions of the cell,thus this option do not belong to the given question.

thus its clear the rest four options are the answer .

among four two options belong to aerobic and the rest two are anaerobic.

Under anaerobic conditions-

The pyruvate is converted into lactate because under the absence of oxygen only the NAD+ can be regenerated, thus further can allow glycolysis.

The cori cycle is also called lactic acidic cycle, thus this cycle is a metabollic pathway produced by anaerobic glycolysis (which takes place by regeneration of NAD+)transporting the molecules from blood to liver and further converting to glucose

Under aerobic conditions,-

The pyruvate is converted into Acetyle CoA so as to further produce citric acid and then citric acidic cycle. Thus Acetyle CoA forms more ATP which help in the regeneration of NAD+ and production of citric acid cycle takes place.

HENCE , The correct options are - lactate cori acetyle CoA citric acid.

Select the phrases that accurately describe properties of the most common form of the DNA double helix. There is more than one c

icang [17]

You did not included your list of selections. Some general properties ascribed to DNA are storage and expression of information and variables through mutations. Replication, Transcription, Translation and Mutagenesis are the major functions of DNA in a cell. DNA nucleotides contain deoxyribose. DNA is double-stranded in the conservative mode, the original double Helix remains a complete unit and the new DNA double Helix is produced as a single unit. In the double=stranded DNA, Hydrogen bonds hold one complimentary strand to the other.
