Answer:
The oxygen dissociation curve represents the percentage saturation of Hb with oxygen at different partial pressure of oxygen. The different partial pressures gives sigmoid shapes to the curve. When this curves shifts to right, it indicates low affinity or binding of oxygen by the Hb. it also indicates the unloading or releases of Oxygen by Hb molecules at condition of low pressure. e,g in the muscles during strenuous exercise.However, when the curve shifts to the left, this indicate high affinity for oxygen, great binding, at high partial pressure of oxygen.e,g in the lungs to take oxygen and releases CO2.
Therefore in this scenario, the statement -. <u>During strenuous exercise, the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve shifts to the right.</u> is correct. because oxygen is needed by the muscles therefore ,oxygen should be less binded by Hb, decrease affinity and easily unloaded to muscles.
<u>The statement </u>This rightward shift reflects an increase in the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen and favors loading of O2 into hemoglobin in the lungs is wrong.
As explained above the rightwards shift indicated low affinity of Hb for oxygen(unloading)and favours unloading at the muscles because during strenuous exercise the partial pressure of oxygen is very low(but that of CO2 high) in the muscles which favours low oxygen molecules binding by Hb, and easy release to respiring cells.
Explanation:
Answer/Explanation:
The replication of DNA is semi-conservative, as each new molecule of DNA inherits one of the parental strands each, and one new strand each. DNA is replicated using the enzyme DNA polymerase, which synthesises a new strand by adding nucleotides in a sequence through complementary base pairing with the template strand. This occurs before the mitosis stage of the cell cycle, where the cell divides. Before this cell division happens, the cell has to pass certain checkpoints controlled by enzymes which ensure environmental conditions are optimal for dividing, and that the new DNA is free from errors.
Answer:
Chitin, Cellulose and Peptidoglycan (B, C and D)
Explanation:
Both chitin and cellulose are composed mainly of glucides, bound by glycosidic bonds of the Beta 1-4 type. This is largely why they cannot be digested by most non-herbivorous animals.
As for peptidoglycans, it is a net. It is a molecular framework present in bacteria that has β1-4 and α1-4 bonds in different proportions.
Answer:
The correct answer would be allergies.
Allergies is one of the common disadvantages of recombinant DNA technology.
It has been observed that use of genetically modified crops can cause life-threatening allergies.
The possible reason is that the introduction of new genes in the crops may lead to the formation of new proteins our body has never encountered with. These proteins may have a potential to cause allergies or any other life-threatening diseases or complications.
The answer is D. Chromosomes contain genes, and genes are made of DNA
