There are choices for this question namely:

<span>A. triglycerides
B. glucose
C. LDL
D. HDL

The correct answer is "LDL" or low density lipoproteins. Low density lipoproteins, also known as "bad cholesterol" are the one responsible for the deposition of fat and cholesterol onto the peripheral blood vessels, including the coronary arteries which poses a risk for developing atherosclerosis and its complications (i.e. ischemic heart disease). Niacin functions to overall improve the lipid profile of a patient by lowering LDL and raising the levels of high density lipoprotein or HDL also known as "good cholesterol".</span>

Read each of the answers below carefully: Which statement best describes the cell cycle? a. Cells grow and develop during interp
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

a. Cells grow and develop during interphase. Cells reproduce during the mitotic phase.

Explanation:

Cell cycle refers to the series of processes that leads to the growth/development and division of a cell. The cell cycle uses MITOSIS for cell growth. Mitosis comprises of two distinct stages namely: INTERPHASE AND MITOTIC PHASE. The interphase is referred to as the resting phase of the cell in which the cell grows and develops.

On the other hand, MITOTIC PHASE is the stage where the actual division of the nucleus (karyokinesis) and cytoplasm (cytokinesis) generally called CELL DIVISION occurs. Therefore, the cell reproduces i.e. one cell forming two, in the mitotic phase.

Which is the most likely result if the Ubx gene was activated either before or after it normally is activated in the sequence of
BigorU [14]

Answer:

D. The insect develops legs in other parts of its body.

Explanation:

HOX genes, also known as homeotic genes, are evolutionarily conserved genes (containing homeobox sequences) that encode master regulators of embryonic development in animals. Hox genes modulate the body plan of an embryo along the head-tail axis. In general, these genes are arranged in the same order as they are transcriptionally expressed along the anteroposterior body axis. Moreover, Ultrabithorax (Ubx) is a Hox gene that is responsible for the proper development of the third thoracic segment in insects. In <em>Drosophila</em>, it has been shown that different segments of the leg regulate their size in response to Ubx expression.
