Answer:

b. Cellular clock  is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Cellular clock theory states that cells can divide a maximum of about 75 to 80 times, and that as we age our cells become less capable of dividing.

Cellular clock theory directs on the lifespan of organisms. As the many individual cells do not remain to reproduce continually, so this theory implies that aging of the cells is a result of their reproductive limitation and because of cellular aging.

Cellular clock theory is the theory  Leonard Hayflick's that describes the cellular aging mechanism and it suggests that as the cell becomes aged it becomes less effective of dividing.

A go cart rolling at a speed of 2 m/s begins to accelerate down an inclined street at a constant rate of 1.5 m/s¶. It takes the
sammy [17]

Answer:

11\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

As per the Newton's first law of motion,

v = u + at\\

where "v" is the final speed

"u" is the initial speed

"a" is the acceleration

and "t" is the time taken

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

v = 2 + (1.5)*6\\= 2 + 9\\= 11 \frac{m}{s}\\

The cart be traveling at a speed of 11 \frac{m}{s} by the time it reaches level ground.

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Enzyme-linked

Explanation:

The cell surface receptors that have intracellular domains associated with enzymes are called enzyme-linked receptors. The added molecule was water-soluble and cannot pass through the membrane to bind to intracellular receptors. Binding of the added molecule to the enzyme-linked receptor led to the activation of associated enzymes to generate the response (down-regulation of expression of the target gene).

Examples of enzyme-linked receptors include tyrosine kinase receptors. Binding of the signaling molecule to these receptors triggers phosphorylation of the intracellular domain which in turn transmits the signal to the cytoplasmic messenger.
