The cramps can be caused due to anaerobic respiration in the muscles and lactic acid formation.

During intense physical activity the muscles become deprived of oxygen, in this condition, anaerobic respiration takes place in the muscle cells causes the formation of the lactic acid.

The physical training increases the strength of the muscles, which can help the muscles not to get tired easily. that is why, physical training is required before any marathon.

The most likely cause of cramps in Bradley's thighs would be the build up of lactic acid. This is a side effect of longer and strenuous activity during which you continouosly tax your body - or rather your muscles where they would need a lot of energy to properly function.

What term is used to describe bacterial cells that can naturally take up dna from their environment?
Maru [420]
<h2>The correct answer is: Competent cells</h2>

Explanation:

  • Bacterial cells have the capability of incorporating foreign naked DNA or deoxyribonucleic acid fragments from the environment or the exterior of the cell to the interior of the cell. This process is known as Transformation.
  • The bacterial cells which are able to undergo transformation are called Competent bacterial cells.
  • Some of the bacterial cells are naturally competent like<em> Bacillus subtilis, Streptocossus pneumoniae</em> while others  like <em>Escherishia coli </em>need to be chemically treated to make them artificially competent.
  • In natural competence, the foreign DNA from the cell exterior is incorporated into the cell interior through specific protein complexes present in the plasma membrane of the bacterial cells.
  • In artificial competence, the negative charge on foreign DNA is masked by positively charged calcium ions (so that it is not repelled by the negative charge of the lipid bilayer of the bacterial cell plasma membrane) and then small pores are created in the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane of the bacterial cells by giving a heat shock to the cells. This results in the uptake of the DNA by the bacterial cells.

After the bases of DNA were identified, Erwin Chargaff analyzed the percentages of adenine, thymine, guanine, and cytosine in th
frutty [35]

Answer:

D) A = T; G = C

Explanation:

Chargaff's rules state that "DNA from any cell of any organisms should have a 1:1 ratio (base Pair Rule) of pyrimidine and purine bases and, more specifically, that the amount of guanine should be equal to cytosine and the amount of adenine should be equal to thymine".

This pattern is noticed in the DNA strands.

3. Cardiac dysrhythmias 
4. Increased blood pressure 
5. Increased respiratory rate 
The answer is options 1, 2, 3 
In this case the patient suffers from hypothermia which is medical term for the condition when body loses heat faster than it can produce in this condition patient shows signs such as uncontrolled shivering and cyanosis; cardiac dysrhythmias may occur in later stages
