Cardiovascular diseases
Metabolic syndrome is a
combination or cluster of metabolic risk factors in a single individual. However,
the metabolic risk factors include hypertension, insulin resistance, stroke,
heart diseases and cholesterol abnormalities. Thus, the clustering of all these
risk factors is specific to cardiovascular diseases.
Answer:
The phenotypic variation for the trait is continuous
Explanation:
Genetically speaking, quantitative traits are controlled by many genes, classes are not easily distinguishable and there is a continuous distribution of the phenotype. These characteristics refer to measurements of quantities (weights, volumes, measurements: kg, m, cm, g, m2, etc.).
In other words, quantitative characteristics are those that exhibit continuous variations and are partly of non-genetic origin; that is, they are greatly affected by the environment.
Answer:
- Glycine
- Ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate
- 3-phosphoglycerate
- Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.
- Glucose
- Sucrose
Explanation:
The glycine, among other amino acids, helps to improve chlorophyll production and promotes the process of photosynthesis.
<u>Calvin cycle</u>
During the carbon fixation phase, a CO² molecule combinate with a ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate to form 6-carbonated molecules, which will divide into two 3-phosphoglycerate molecules.
During the reduction phase, NADPH donates its electrons to reduce 3-phosphoglycerate molecules, and turn them into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.
During the regeneration phase, a glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate molecule leaves the cycle and goes to the cytosol to form glucose. This step can be done when three CO² enter the cycle and produce six glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate molecules. One of them leaves the cycle to form glucose, while the other five are recycled.
<u>Cytosol: </u>
Once in the cytosol, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate molecules are used to form glucose and fructose. These two molecules are the monosaccharides that form the sucrose.
Once sucrose is formed, it is transported from the photosynthetic tissues to different parts of the plant by the phloem.
