Answer:
Explanation:
The basis for the inverse relationship between number of matured HDL in circulation and and cardiovascular disease is that when new HDL entertainment circulation they mature by picking up extra cholesterol until they become mature and high cholesterol level is a major cause of cardiovascular disease and atherosclerosis. The implication of this is that the more the number of matured HDL in circulation, the lower the cholesterol level in the blood thus the lower the risk of cardiovascular disease and atherosclerosis.
C
Hot springs are heated by the geothermal heat- heat from the Earths interior.
The answer is D. For producing recombinant, first you need to cut the insert part and vector part to get the same end by using restriction enzyme. Then using DNA ligase to bind these two parts to get a new plasmids.
Answer:
BB - Dark brown color - (1/4)
Bb - light tan (due to incomplete dominance) - (2/4 or 1/2)
bb - white color - (1/4)
Explanation:
Let the allele for dark brown pigment be represented by "B"
And the let allele for white (no pigment) be represented by "b"
Due to incomplete dominance, the phenotype of heterozygous species would be "light tan"
Genotype of heterozygous female - Bb
Genotype of heterozygous male - Bb
Bb * Bb
BB, Bb, Bb, bb
BB - Dark brown color - (1/4)
Bb - light tan (due to incomplete dominance) - (2/4 or 1/2)
bb - white color - (1/4)
Answer:
Weight gain and depression are symptoms caused by imbalance of pituitary and adrenal glands and the cortisol hormone.
Explanation:
The pituitary gland is responsible for the overall functioning of the body since it produces a variety of hormones. It is very small in size and is also known as the 'master gland'. It is made of two parts- <u>anterior pituitary gland and posterior pituitary gland</u>. The pituitary gland and its functions are controlled by the hypothalamus.
The anterior pituitary secretes hormones which act on adrenal glands, thyroid, testes and ovaries. The hormones produced are <em>TSH, Prolactin, Luitenizing Hormone, Cortisol, Testosterone</em>, etc.
Cortisol is produced by the <u>adrenal gland</u> under the command of <em>pituitary gland</em>. Cortisol helps in <em>regulating blood sugar, blood pressure</em> and helps in reducing inflammation. Any imbalance of adrenal gland will cause an increase or decrease in the production of cortisol. The symptoms produced on the imbalance are:
- Obesity in upper body
- High blood pressure
- Mood swings, depression and irritability
- Acne and other skin problems.
