What kind of atom tends to lose one electron?

Biology
1 answer:
CaHeK987 [17]3 years ago
8 0
In comparison, the group 1 elements, including hydrogen (H), lithium (Li), and sodium(Na), all have one electron in their outermost shells. This means that they can achieve a stable configuration and a filled outer shell by donating or losing an electron.

Cellular respiration occurs in the body 24 hours per day. During exercise, the rate of cellular respiration increases. Why does
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

because the body requires a higher supply of oxygen

Explanation:

Cellular respiration can be divided into two different metabolic processes: aerobic respiration which needs oxygen (O2) and anaerobic respiration (without O2). The aerobic cellular respiration is produced when glucose molecules react with O2 in order to form ATP, the energy currency of the cell. Aerobic cellular respiration is the main source for generating ATP. During exercise, the requirement of O2 will be higher because the cellular respiration rate is increased in order to produce more energy (ATP). In consequence, during physical activities, it is required have to breathe faster to supply this O2, which enters into the lungs to be transported to all the cells through blood circulation.

How is a tendon different from a ligament? A. A tendon joins a bone to a bone; a ligament joins a muscle to a bone. B. A tendon
rusak2 [61]
B is correct. A tendon will join a muscle to a bone, and a ligament joins a bone to another bone. I think of it this way, partly influenced by my biology teacher:

- The achilles tendon, at the back of your foot, clearly joins foot to calf muscle
- The word ligament comes from 'deligare' in Latin, which roughly means to tie           together. A ligament 'ties' two bones together

I hope this helps

Put the following steps in the correct order from 1-9
storchak [24]

Answer:

transcription of mRNA from DNA

small ribosomal subunit binds to mRNA

initiation complex formed with addition of large ribosomal subunit

translocation

codon recognition (non-initiating site)  

peptide bond formation

ribosome reads a stop codon

polypeptide chain is released from the P site

ribosomal subunits dissociate

Explanation:

The above describes the process of translation in the ribosome. After transcription of DNA to mRNA, the mRNA is taken to the ribosome to undergo translation, here the mRNA binds to the small ribosomal subuits and to other initiation factors; binding at the mRNA binding site on the small ribosomal subunit then the Large ribosomal subunits joins in.

Translation begins (codon recognition; initiating site) at the initiation codon AUG on the mRNA with the tRNA bringing its amino acid (methionine in eukaryotes and formyl methionine in prokaryotes) forming complementary base pair between its anticodon and mRNA's AUG start codon. Then translocation occurs with the ribosome moving one codon over on the mRNA thus moving the start codon tRNA from the A site to the P site, then codon recognition occurs (non-initiating site again) which includes incoming tRNA with an anticodon that is complementary to the codon exposed in the A site binds to the mRNA.

Then peptide bond formation occurs between the amino acid carried by the tRNA in the p site and the A site. When the ribosome reads a stop codon, the process stops and the polypeptide chain produced is released and the ribosomal subunits dissociates.

Which of the following best explains the role of a genetic counselor? to order specific medical tests and prescribe medications
vitfil [10]

The right option is; to develop family pedigrees and inform clients of possible options.

Genetic counselors are trained specialists and part of the health care system that determine possible risk factors of hereditary disorders in patients. They function by analyzing patient histories (pedigree), providing genetic testing and diagnosis, performing genetic risk calculations, counseling and educating patients and their families about potential health risks and available options.

3. What would happen if they crossed yellow jellyfish with coober Complete
lidiya [134]

Answer:

We know that the color of jellyfish is controlled by codominance inheritance pattern and yellow Y and blue B are two alleles and in case of heterozygous the goober or green color occurs then,

If Yellow jellyfish is crossed with goober, that is, YY X YB.

 the punnett square will be -

   Y      Y

Y   YY    YY

B  YB     YB

The possible genotype of offspring will be YY, and YB and therefore, the possible phenotype of offspring will be Yellow, and Green. The Percentage of yellow offspring will be 50% as two out of four are dominant for Y allele and two heterozygous conditions that is 50 % and as there are two copies B alleles are not present so zero percent of blue color.
