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 molecules are required for the Calvin cycle? (3 answers)
Ber [7]

Answer:After the energy from the sun is converted and packaged into ATP and NADPH, the cell has the fuel needed to build food in the form of carbohydrate molecules. The carbohydrate molecules made will have a backbone of carbon atoms. Where does the carbon come from? The carbon atoms used to build carbohydrate molecules comes from carbon dioxide, the gas that animals exhale with each breath. The Calvin cycle is the term used for the reactions of photosynthesis that use the energy stored by the light-dependent reactions to form glucose and other carbohydrate molecules.

Explanation:The Interworkings of the Calvin Cycle

In plants, carbon dioxide (CO2) enters the chloroplast through the stomata and diffuses into the stroma of the chloroplast—the site of the Calvin cycle reactions where sugar is synthesized. The reactions are named after the scientist who discovered them, and reference the fact that the reactions function as a cycle. Others call it the Calvin-Benson cycle to include the name of another scientist involved in its discovery (Figure 5.14).

This illustration shows that ATP and NADPH produced in the light reactions are used in the Calvin cycle to make sugar.

In which step of protein synthesis does the rRNA make protein?
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Translation is the second part of the central dogma of molecular biology: RNA → Protein. It is the process in which the genetic code in mRNA is read to make a protein. Translation is illustrated in the diagram below. After mRNA leaves the nucleus, it moves to a ribosome, which consists of rRNA and proteins.

Explanation:

Within the ribosome, the rRNA molecules direct the catalytic steps of protein synthesis — the stitching together of amino acids to make a protein molecule. In fact, rRNA is sometimes called a ribozyme or catalytic RNA to reflect this function.

the nontemplate strand of a portion of a gene reads 5'ACTGGTTCA. What will the sequence of the resulting transcript for this por
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

DNA template sequence:  

5' TGACCAAGT 3'

RNA antisense sequence: 3' UGACCAAGU 5'

>>> RNA sense sequence (transcript) : UGAACCAGU

Explanation:

In the DNA molecule, four types of nitrogenous bases are found: cytosine (C), and guanine (G), adenine (A) and thymine (T). In DNA the bases pair up with each other in the following ways: A pairs with T by two hydrogen bonds, while C pairs with G by three hydrogen bonds. In RNA (i.e., transcript sequence), T is replaced by uracil (U). Moreover, the RNA nucleotide sequence is read in the direction 5' to 3'.

Is a tiny, hair-like fiber that aids in movement.
Scorpion4ik [409]
There could be multiple answers to this due to where the hair like fibre is. if it is on a bacteria to aid movement it is called a flagella. if it is attached to a cell, for example in the throat or oviduct, it is called a cilia
