So,
There is a scientific consensus that life exists on other planets
and
The scientists only studied one meteorite
The first one because the other ones don't make sense, and because it is a scientific consensus. The latter because they only studied one, and imagine if they studied other ones...
Answer:
Option A, a drug to treat high blood pressure that reversibly inhibits an enzyme catalyzing production of a chemical that causes blood vessels to contract
Explanation:
The complete question is
If you were working for a pharmaceutical company as part of a drug discovery team, which of these enzyme inhibitors would you suggest as a productive avenue for drug development?
a) a drug to treat high blood pressure that reversibly inhibits an enzyme catalyzing production of a chemical that causes blood vessels to contract
b) a drug to treat diabetes that irreversibly inhibits an enzyme in the metabolic pathway to synthesize glucose
c) a compound that acts as a competitive inhibitor for a digestive enzyme produced only in the presence of certain foods
d) a compound that inhibits enzymes by significantly changing the ph throughout the body
Solution
Productive avenue of a drug simply means producing an drug that not only treats the main disease or disorder but also functions to inhibit the causative agent activity. In case of option A, both the objectives of producing drug are met and hence it is the right choice.
High blood pressure usually affects the blood vessels by narrowing them and in severe cases may rupture them. If a drug as stated in option A is produced, it will not only rectify the effects of high blood pressure but will also prevent the blood vessels from narrowing by inhibiting the activity of enzymes responsible for producing chemical that leads to blood vessel contraction.
Hence, option A is correct
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Instantly transmitted
All of the information your brain receives is <em><u>instantly transmitted</u></em>.
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>Brain is the part of the central nervous system</u></em> together with the spinal cord.
- <em><u>Brain receives from sensory neurons, which carry stimulus, which are the changes in the environment, from the receptors for processing and interpretation.</u></em>
- <em><u>Brain inter-prates and process information it has received instantly and sends a response via the motor neurons, which carries the responses to the effector cells such as glands and muscles which trigger various actions.</u></em>
Answer:
The source of Calcium (Ca⁺⁺) for the skeletal muscle cells is the sarcoplasmic reticulum, the main store of intracellular Ca⁺⁺.
Explanation:
Calcium (Ca⁺⁺) is an ion that plays an important role in muscle contraction, a process that requires high cytoplasmic concentrations of this ion to promote myofibrillary activity.
The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) -equivalent to the endoplasmic smooth reticulum- is an organelle that regulates the contractile activity of skeletal muscle. The two terminal cisterns of the SR attach to the T-tube, forming a triad, which surrounds the myofibrilla.
Once the muscle cell receives the signal to contract, the Ca⁺⁺ channels are opened and allow Ca⁺⁺ to enter the cell, promoting the exit of this cation from the SR and increased its cytoplasmic levels. This stimulates muscle contraction.
Complementary pairing goes like this:
A pairs with T and
C pairs with G. Nothing about this changes unless you get to mRNA (But we won't go into that) :)
So if you have a strand that goes TCG GA then your pairing will look like this:
T A
C G
G C
G C
A T
Hope this helps!! :)
