antiseptic1488 [7]4 years ago
8 0

The answer is 5.5 pounds. Low birthweight is a duration used to describe babies who are born weighing less than 2,500 grams (5 pounds, 8 ounces). In contrast, the average newborn weighs about 8 pounds.  Babies born with low birthweight may be more likely than babies born at a normal weight to have certain health conditions later in life, including Diabetes and Heart disease.

Novay_Z [31]
Shield Volcanoes typically take the form of a shield and are usually not too steep and are easily hiked up, such as Mauna Loa. They usually are built up by magma flows and usually don’t do too much in terms of eruptions, while generally they are the ones that spit out lava the most its generally just a bubble up to the surface and leaking out the sides and a flow down the mountain.

What happens when there is too much of one type of molecule inside the cell
Jet001 [13]

I am guessing that the molecule type will try to take over the cell OR it will excrete to much waste for the cell to handle and the cell will die.

Which of the following correctly describes the linkage that will be formed with the nitrogen base shown in the image below while
Lelu [443]

Answer:

C) Three hydrogen bonds will form with guanine.

Explanation:

Generally the DNA molecule is made up of Purines  bases of Adenine and Guanine,and Pyrimidine of Cytosine and Guanine.However,RNA contains a different pyrimidine of Uracil.Thus the pairing is A-U  am C-G.The uracil replaces Thymine.

The structure above is a Pyrimidine,because it is made up of single ring structure(an heterocylclic  aromatic  structure) compare to double structure of purines. Heterocyclic means it is ring form.Aromatic means it has resonance bonds which shift with the rings for stability.

It is also contains of two substitutes at position 4 of the ring structure (amineNH2) and at 2 which is the Keto group(=0).Therefore the structure is Cytosine.

In RNA structure the Cytosine pair with the three hydrogen bonds with guanine,while Adenine pair with Uracil.This ensures stability of the RNA structure.
