Answer:

a. Aging

c. Heredity

d. Crohn disease

e. High-fat diet

Explanation:

Colon cancer involves the abnormal growth of cells in the colon found in the large intestine.

Colon cancer is found to be hereditary in about 10 percent of patients .

It is also common with individuals who are used to taking high fat diets and affects most people older than 50 years old.

Crohn’s disease is also found to be a risk factor for having colon cancer.

What is the medical term for a specific protein evoked by an antigen?
Shkiper50 [21]
An antigen triggers a response from the immune system and an antibody is produced. All antibodies are immunoglobulins, therefore, the correct answer is immunoglobulin. More specifically, an immunoglobulin is a protein produced by plasma cells to fight and neutralize pathogens. To do so, the immunoglobulin has a specific region which is complementary to a specific region of the antigen. Immunoglobulin's mechanism of action is to bind to the pathogen and either block its action or trigger a response of other cells of the immune system.

What conclusions can we draw from the lab about photosynthesis and cellular
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide and oxygen are recycled through photosynthesis and cellular

respiration forever unless something interrupts.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are two distinct and opposite metabolical processes undergone by living cells. They are opposite processes because one utilizes the products of the other as reactants.

Photosynthesis is a unique process to autotrophic organisms like plants. It is the process whereby plants synthesize their food in form of organic molecules (glucose) by combining Carbondioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) in the presence of sunlight.

The overall equation of photosynthesis is as follows:

6CO2 + 6H2O ------> C6H12O6+ 6O2

On the other hand, cellular respiration is the process whereby living cells obtain energy (ATP) by breaking down food molecules (glucose) using oxygen to produce carbondioxide (CO2) and water as products. The overall equation is:

C6H12O6 + 602 -----> 6CO2 + 6H2O

Based on the lab experiments, it can be concluded that Carbon dioxide and oxygen are recycled through photosynthesis and cellular

respiration because photosynthesis recycles/reuses the products of cellular respiration, which are C02 and H2O while cellular respiration recycles/reuses the products of photosynthesis, which are C6H12O6 and O2. This process occurs naturally in the environment and will continue to do so unless something interupts.

Option B is incorrect because light energy from the sun powers photosynthesis while option C is incorrect because photosynthesis transforms light energy to chemical energy while cellular respiration transforms chemical energy to thermal energy.
