Women have two X chromosomes.Recessive alleles on one X chromosome are often masked by dominant alleles on the other chromosome.Women will not be affected unless they receive two recessive alleles.
The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:
Functions of astrocytes include all of the following, except
A) performing repairs in damaged neural tissue.
B) guiding neuron development.
C) functioning in action potential transmission.
D) maintaining the blood-brain barrier.
E) creating a three-dimensional framework for the CNS.
Answer:
Functioning in action potential transmission.
Explanation:
Astrocytes may be defined as the glial type star shaped cells present in the central nervous system. They envelope the synapse and can function with millions of neuron at a time.
Astrocytes are involved in the structural support in the brain and can repair the damaged and wear nerves tissue. Their main function is acting as blood brain barrier. The action potential transmission is mainly done by neurons and not by the astrocytes cells.
Thus, the correct answer is option (c).
Explanation:
Catalase test demonstrate the presence of an enzyme called catalase, that catalyses the release of oxygen from hydrogen peroxide. It is used to tell the difference between the non-catalase producing bacteria from those bacteria that produces an enzyme catalase. Catalase is produced by the bacteria that respire using oxygen. If an organism produces catalase, bubbles of oxygen are produced when hydrogen peroxide is added to it.
When the circular muscles contract, the earthworm stretches, becoming longer and thinner. The earthworm uses its setae to anchor the front of its body in the soil. Now the longitudinal muscles contract and the earthworm becomes shorter and wider or it bends from one side to the other, pulling the body forward.
Answer:
a. to prevent the unnecessary breakdown of glycogen
b. to prevent the formation of glucose
e. to prevent hydrolytic cleavage of glucose 1‑phosphate
Explanation:
the main reason is to prevent hydrolysis. because the entry of water could lead to the formation of glucose rather than glucose 1-phosphate.
