Lynna [10]3 years ago
3 0
The appropriate answer is GOUT. Gout is a hereditary disease that is common in men. It results from the accumulation of uric acid crystals in joints. These crystals irritate the arterial cartilage and synovial membrane. Symptoms of gout include swelling, pain, tissue degeneration and sometimes fusion of the joint. Gout most commonly affects the great toe.

Select all that apply The cellular respiration the mitochondrion serves as?
SVEN [57.7K]
D. The Krebs cycle

Here’s the Explanation for it:

The Cellular respiration refers to the biochemical pathway in which the cells release energy from chemical bonds of food molecules. The energy that is provided is very important to the creation of life itself.

The aerobic phases of the cellular respiration in eukaryote is seen within mitochondria (organelles). This is know as the Krebs Cycle and the electron transport chain which are aerobic phases.

Hope this helps!

In which phylum do we see plants with lignin, vascular system but no seeds?
andre [41]

Answer is the phylum is Pteridophyta. Pteridophytes are first land plants, examples ferns, <em>Lycopodium, Selaginella. </em>Members have liginified cells and developed conducting tissues called vascular system to conduct water and synthesized food. They reproduce through spores, seeds do not develop in pteridophytes.

Not all intercellular signals require transduction. Which one of the following signals would be processed without transduction?
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

The correct answer would be a lipid-soluble signal.

Signal transduction refers to the set or cascade of bio-chemical reactions take place in a cell in order to transmit the chemical or physical signal from outside the cell to inside target molecule.

It is usually initiated by receptors present on the membrane of the cell which sense the extracellular stimulus (such as ligand, hormone, pressure, temperature, pressure etc). Once activated, these receptors activate the cascade of reaction which ultimately reaches the target molecule and produces a cell's response.

In contrast, the lipid-soluble signals (such as steroidal hormones, thyroid hormone etc) enter the cell membrane without any hindrance. They directly bind to intra-cellular receptor present in the cytoplasm or on the nuclear membrane.

The hormone-receptor complex then enters the nucleus and act as transcription factor and produces the response in the form of transcription.

RNA primers in Okazaki fragments are usually very short, less than 10 nucleotides and sometimes as short at 2 nucleotides in len
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

During DNA replication each parental DNA strand serves as a template to a new complementary strand. DNA polymerase is the main enzyme responsible for this process, it catalyzes the addition of nucleotides to form the new DNA chain.  

The complementary nature of the DNA strands, presents a difficulty for DNA replication: DNA polymerase catalyzes the polymerization of DNA only in the 5’ to3’ -in the leading DNA strand. Thus, the opposite DNA strand, the lagging strand, faced an obstacle that is solved by the Okazaki small fragments. The primase enzyme synthesizes small RNA fragments complementary to the lagging DNA strand. These RNA fragments serve as primers for the DNA polymerase. To remove this RNA primers and form a continuous complementary lagging strand, RNase H and DNAse ligase will further cut and join the DNA again.  

DNA polymerase has a higher processivity than primase, if processivity is the average number of nucleotides that it is capable to continuously add to the template strand. Primase dissociates from the template often during DNA replication as it has to constantly add new RNA primers to the strand.

How can an egg hatch in cold weather
olga2289 [7]

Answer:

Although eggs contain a great deal of water, they can get colder than 32°F/0°C without freezing. However, eggs that reach 29°F will freeze, which usually causes death.

Explanation:

If they have been exposed to very cold temperatures then I would assume the embyros would be dead or never started, though if you had a way to keep the coop warm or if she went broody and stayed on the eggs (is sitting and still laying eggs so they aren't exposed to some bitter cold weather or breezes) then they hopefully would be okay.
