Glucose is what type of molecule A: Multi- complex B: Protein C: Sugar D: Lipid
frozen [14]

Answer:

Within all lifeforms on Earth, from the tiniest bacterium to the giant sperm whale, there are four major classes of organic macromolecules that are always found and are essential to life.  These are the carbohydrates, lipids (or fats), proteins, and nucleic acids.  All of the major macromolecule classes are similar, in that, they are large polymers that are assembled from small repeating monomer subunits. In Chapter 6, you were introduced to the polymers of life and their building block structures, as shown below in Figure 11.1. Recall that the monomer units for building the nucleic acids, DNA and RNA, are the nucleotide bases, whereas the monomers for proteins are amino acids, for carbohydrates are sugar residues, and for lipids are fatty acids or acetyl groups.

1. **How does the amount of carbon the US emits compare to other countries?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

5.1 billion metric tons of carbon is emitted by U.S as compared to other countries which emits about 32.5 billion metric tons of carbon.

Explanation:

U.S emits about 5.1 billion metric tons of carbon in the atmosphere which contribute in air pollution also helps in rising the temperature of the earth atmosphere because carbondioxide is a green house gas which increases the earth temperature. The main reason of high amount of carbon emission is the high number of industries and more fossil fuels is burnt in the engines of vehicles.

Heritability refers to the extent to which trait variations among individuals are attributable to their differing
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Phenotypes

Explanation:

Heritability refers to the extent to which trait variations among individuals are attributable to their differing observable and most often definitive or measurable physical features, often called phenotypes. Examples of this variation could be something like height or eye colour. Basically it has to be traits that depend on genetics that environmental factors

How does the virus use a host cell to make copies of itself
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

I wasn't quite sure what virus you were referring to in your question, but here's a general answer: Viruses use their host cells' machinery to replicate themselves.

If they are a specific type of virus known as a retrovirus, they have the ability to use the host cells' enzymes to change the RNA contained within the virus into DNA (via some type of replication I suppose).

In other cases, if they contain DNA instead of RNA (that is, the virus), they can use the host cell's machinery to create RNA via enzymes involved in transcription and/or they can incorporate that DNA into the host cell's DNA. This is part of a type of viral replication cycle known as the lysogenic cycle.

In another type of viral replication cycle known as the lytic cycle, the virus simply has itself and its genome duplicated until the host cell bursts, releasing the viral material. Here, again, the virus uses the host cell's machinery to replicate itself.

What would happen to the body if it did not produce enzymes that break down acetylcholine?
Morgarella [4.7K]
<span>when the breaking down of acetylcholine is not performed, then symptoms similar to those of poisoning with acetylcholinesterase inhibitors would occur.  This would be highly hazardous to the human system as severe poisoning as we all know is very lethal.  Even a fetus would not develop with this.</span>
