I took this in K12, the answer is "A. Gametes"

The right option is; A) gametes

Gametes are reproductive cells (male (sperm) or female (eggs)) that contain only half the usual number of chromosomes and unite during sexual reproduction to produce a new cell (zygote). The mutation for sickle cell anemia occurs in the woman’s gamete (eggs) and this type of mutation is known as germline mutation; a mutation that occur in the germ (reproductive) cells and can be passed on to an organism’s offspring.

Briefly differentiate "White Matter" & "Grey Matter".
evablogger [386]

Answer:

The CNS, or central nervous system is comprised of neurons, the cell units that form it. These cells, in turn, are formed by their cell bodies, the dendrites on them and the terminal ends of the axons, which are like the connectors, or roadways, for neurons. When viewed on a microscope, brain tissue, particularly, looks stained with two different colors: grey, or pinkisk, for the grey matter, and whiter for the white matter, which are the axons. This is basically why the two are called grey matter and white matter of the CNS.

So one difference between these two matters is the color they display when viewed. The second is the parts of the neuron that form the two; while the white matter is formed from the neuronal axons, the grey matter is formed by the dendrites, cell bodies and axonal terminals. A third differentiation is that most synaptic activity takes place in the grey matter, while most conduction of information from the cell bodies is performed by the axons.

Explain why it would be logical that the intracellular concentration of many molecules is near the Km of the enzymes for which t
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The intracellular is where enzymes need to perform optimally or near optimum.

Explanation:

The Km is the concentration of molecules where an enzyme performs at half of its maximum velocity (Vmax). Therefore, when molecules are near Km the enzyme is able to hydrolyze molecules nearer its Vmax.
