Increasing the volume of air that reaches the alveoli and takes part in gas exchange will cause blood pH to:

Answer:

B. increase, because the partial pressure of CO2 in the blood will decrease.

Explanation:

The presence of carbon dioxide gas in blood imparts H+ ions due to its reaction with H2O and thereby, lowers down the blood pH.

When more air reaches alveoli, the rate of gaseous exchange is increased. More of the carbon dioxide is removed from the blood and is released out of the body via exhalation.

Removal of carbon dioxide from blood would increase the pH of the blood since the partial pressure of CO2 in the blood would decrease.

If there is too much of glycogen and fat stored in a cell can be toxic. It damages the organs and leads to diseases.

Explanation:

Glycogen is stored in the liver or muscle tissue, the diseases affect functioning of the liver, kidney and the muscles. These diseases are mainly caused by genetic enzyme that is inherited from both parents.

The glycogen storage diseases are Von Gierke disease, Pompe's disease, Cori's disease, Hers' disease. The symptoms of this glycogen storage diseases are Low blood sugar, An enlarged liver, A swollen belly, weak muscles.

18. RNAi is a technique that silences genes by targeting them and degrading their mRNA. How can this technique be used in scient
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

RNAi is a cellular mechanism for post-transcriptional gene silencing. After transcription of a gene into mRNA, small interfering RNA (siRNA) and microRNA (miRNA) can target the mRNA to form dsRNA. This mRNA then becomes a target of ribonucleases such as the Dicer that break it apart. These mRNA, therefore, do not reach the cytoplasm for translation by ribosomes. This mechanism is hence harnessed and manipulated by scientists to study genes by silencing them.
