Biology

DENIUS [597]2 years ago

<span><span>D. They have learned the precise depths where the boundaries between the earth's layers are located.</span>

The overwhelming amount of seismic activity particularly happens along convergent plate boundaries. In particular, reverse or thrust faults occurs on convergent plate boundaries.Converging plate boundaries are classified into two types of activities.First is the subduction boundary where the oceanic lithosphere is pressured beneath a continental plate or oceanic plate thus it overrides the other plate then slowly directed to the mantle where it will become a magma. Second is the collisional boundary where earthquakes occur because of the continental crust squeezed together then plates are pushed upwards.Reverse faults are correlated to earthquakes with magnitude of 8 or more.Hence, earthquakes of magnitude 8 or more are considered powerful and mega thrust earthquakes.</span>

Scurvy is a disease that until the nineteenth century was common among sailors and others whose diets were deficient in vitamin
alina1380 [7]
<h2>Scurvy </h2>

Explanation:

(a) Collagen is the major structural component of cartilage,bones and tendons

  • The basic unit of collagen is tropocollagen and each tropocollagen consists of three coiled left handed polypeptide chains called α chains
  • Generally each α chain consists of a repeating tripeptide sequence called: G-X-Y
  • Here G represents glycine; X represents proline and Y represents hydroxyproline
  • Rigidity of collagen molecule is due to presence of proline and hydroxyproline
  • Hydroxylation of proline is catalysed by prolyl hydroxylase enzyme which use ascorbate,α ketoglutarate and oxygen
  • α ketoglutarate is oxidatively decarboxylated to form carbon dioxide and succinate
  • Sequence of events leading from a dietary vitamin C deficiency to symptoms such as bruising and breakdown of supporting tissues includes: tissue levels of ascorbic acid is low;  enzyme prolyl hydroxylase is inactive;  proline is not hydroxylated;  the triple helix is inadequately stabilized; collagen breaks down;  defects in tissues that depend on collagen ; tissues that depend on collagen are subject to breakdown and bruising

(b) Sailors are no longer susceptible to scurvy because fresh fruits which are the source of vitamin C source are available now

British sailors called "limeys" to this day,this term reflects the British navy's use of limes
