Answer:

The correct answer is A. Sexual reproduction produces a greater variation in offspring.

Explanation:

  • B is wrong because in sexual reproduction there are two organisms involved who combine their DNA, therefore resulting in non-identical offsprings.
  • C is wrong because sexual reproduction requires the two organisms involved to exchange DNA's whereas asexual reproduction involves only one organism which only copies it's own DNA for reproduction.
  • D is wrong because there are no risks as genetic defects and no need to seek a mate or it is easier than sexual reproduction which results in lower risks for the parents in asexual reproduction.
  • E is wrong because asexual production is a more efficient procedure and results in a faster growing population because there is no need to search a mate.
  • The answer is A because in sexual reproduction, two different DNA's from both parents get combined resulting in more variation in offspring. In asexual reproduction, there is only one set of DNA which does not allow the gene's to mix, causing a less diverse offspring.

An older adult female patient has presented with a new onset of shortness of breath, and the patient's nurse practitioner has or
Marizza181 [45]
Shortness of breath or difficulty in breathing is also called dyspnea and can be acute or chronic. It has various causes, but mainly can be caused by a problem in the heart or the lungs. Since your heart and lungs are both involved in the transportation of the oxygen to the tissues and the removal of carbon dioxide, any problems occurring to these systems can affect breathing.
B-type Natriuretic Peptide (BNP) reflect the systolic and diastolic activity of the heart and its blood levels can show any heart failure. A BNP test and can help the nurse decide whether the cause of the dyspnea is a heart failure or some respiratory problem.

Which of the following statements about ATP-powered pumps is NOT true? All ATP-powered pumps contain at least one transmembrane
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

Only P-, F-, and V-class pumps transport ions.

Explanation:

The distinct classes of ATPases include:

1) Only the P-type ATPase actively transports ions across biological membranes. P-ATPases (also named E1-E2 ATPases) are found both in plasma and organelle membranes. These ATPases serve to transport ions and phospholipids by hydrolyzing ATP to ADP and phosphate.

2) A- and F-ATPases synthesize ATP by transforming the energy from a gradient of ions across the cell membrane.

3) V-ATPase (also known as Vacuolar-H+ ATPases) acidifies vacuole, lysosome, endosome and Golgi membranes. This type of ATPase couples the hydrolysis of ATP to the active transport of protons across biological membranes.

4) E-ATPases hydrolyze extracellular ATP.

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Option (d).

Explanation:

Anagyrine is ab alkaloid that is mainly responsible for the crooked calf syndrome. This chemical effects have been tested on the cattle, goats and sheep.

The researchers has found that anagyrine can work as a teratogen. This chemical can cause birth defects in an individual. The angyrina when ingested by woman causes birth defect during early pregnancy.

Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
