Answer: Pulmonary edema
Explanation:
Pulmonary edema is the condition in which there is an excess of fluid in the lungs. This fluid gets collected in the air sacs which causes hindrance in breathing.
Most of the heart related diseases causes pulmonary edema. Pulmonary edema can be caused due to pneumonia, trauma in the chest wall and exercising at higher elevations. It is very fatal if not cured on time.
Hence, the correct answer is pulmonary edema.
<span>Epithelial and connective tissues combine to form four types of membranes: mucous membranes (epithelial tissues are moist), serous membranes (line cavities that are not open to the outside environment), cutaneous membranes (skin that covers the surface of the body), and synovial membranes (produce synovial fluid).</span>
Explanation:
1) The enzyme helicase catalyses the unwinding of the two DNA strands by disrupting the hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs.
2) Single-stranded binding proteins attach to the DNA strands to stabilise them and prevent them from joining back together.
3) The enzyme primase catalyses the addition of a short primer consisting of RNA nulceotides to the DNA strand. This serves as an 'anchor' DNA polymerase to initiate replication.
4) The enzyme DNA polymerase synthesizes a new DNA strand by incorporating DNA nucleotides complementary to the existing strand. DNA polymerase activity only occurs in the 5' ---> 3' direction.
5) The enzyme ligase catalyses the formation of hydrogen bonds between the two new pairs of DNA strands, and seals any breakages in the sugar-phosphate backbone.
