Answer: True

 

Explanation:

The dual energy x-ray absorptimetry is a technique that is used for measuring the bone mineral density. This technique utilizes the two X-ray beams with different levels of energy. The soft tissues are subtracted in this procedure and the beam is absorbed by the bone. This technique is useful for diagnosis of osteoporosis, to check and diagnose the infected, fractured and healing bones.

Fluid retention is a condition in which excess fluid due to capillary leakage or any other reason fills up inside the circulatory system, body tissues and cavities. The following symptoms will appear:

Discolored skin, aches and tenderness in the limbs, stiffness in joints and weight gain.

The retained excess fluid may react with the X-ray beam hence, will interfere in the process of diagnosis. Thus caution should be taken for such individuals.

timofeeve [1]

The two different molecules of aquaporin will have different sequences of amino acids

Explanation:

Aquaporins are an integral type of membrane proteins. They act as water channels and their function is to transport water and other solute materials across cells membranes and thereby control and regulate the water content of the cells.

They are formed by clustering of four water channel monomers forming a tetramer.

Each aquaporin is made up of a specific linear sequence of amino acids and variations in the sequence leads to formation of different aquaporins.

There are more than 10 types of aquaporins are known. The sizes of the aquaporins differ according to their pore diameter of each type and this difference leads to the selective permeability of water across cell membranes.

Why is it important to use the mRNA to code for the amino acids?
Fynjy0 [20]

It will all make more sense if you start from the beginning of the sequence with the structure of DNA. You will remember that messenger RNA contains a sequence of bases which, read three at a time, code for the amino acids used to make protein chains. Each of the sets of three bases is known as a codon.
