Answer:

Angioplasty

Explanation:

Angioplasty is a technique of mechanically widening narrowed or blocked blood vessels. In angioplasty the doctors insert a deflated balloon in the narrowed vessel and then inflate it to fixed size. Thats why it is also known as baloon angioplasty.

Balloon push the walls of vessels for increases blood flow. Sometime a stent is also inserted immediately after angioplasty to ensure that blood flow remain intact and balloon is removed by deflating it.

Angioplasty may of several types depending upon the blood vessels it open such as coronary angioplasty, peripheral angioplasty and renal angioplasty.

An organism has a metabolic pathway that is controlled by an inducer through negative regulation. When this organism is grown in
beks73 [17]

Answer:

The inducer will combines with the repressor and inactivates the pathway.

Explanation:

Inducer is a term in Molecular Biology, which represent a molecule or substance that has the capability to activate the transcription of a gene, where by it joins with and then inactivates a genetic repressor.

In other words, the inducer binds with the repressor in order to prevent the RNA polymerase to combine to the DNA, and chemically produce mRNA, this is done by repressor proteins combining with the DNA strand.

Inducer specifically makes repressor to change shapes, which will make it not combine with the DNA, and therefore, allow formation of transcription, such that expression of gene will eventually occur.

dolphi86 [110]

Answer: b. classify all organisms into monophyletic groups.

Explanation:

The modern taxonomy is the study of classification of organisms which classified the organisms on the basis of ancestral relationships, reproduction, morphology and behavior to identify the living organisms on earth and group them together. This is the scientific basis for classifying the species.

The classification of organisms into monophyletic groups is one of the criteria for classification in modern taxonomy. In monophyletic group or clade is a group which includes the descendants that belongs to the common ancestor. The organisms of the group share derived characteristics like morphological similarities, mode of reproduction and similarities at the genomic level.
