Answer:

The correct answer is: A) a pregnant woman.

Explanation:

Bodybuilders in particular need the lower body fat percentage possible in order to succeed in their career, since most of their bodies must be muscle. Professional ballet dancers need to be light and skinny to be able to perform their dance moves and to be lifted by their partners; a basketball player also needs a lower fat percentage and a higher muscle mass percentage to be able to play at his best; and a ranch hand as well needs to not be packing that much fat in order to make his job easier.

Pregnant women, however, need body fat to have healthy pregnancies. This doesn't mean that they do not need to take care of themselves, because a higher body fat than what it's needed can lead to diabetes, high blood pressure and can difficult the pregnancy.

Answer:

There is a relationships between the number of stomata and the environment.

Explanation:

The small pores beneath the epidermis of a leaf is the stomata from theis opening gaseous exchange takes place,water evaporates and oxygen goes out. Stomatal density may increase or decrease the  response due to environmental variations in the presence of sunlight and water availability. The opening and closing of stomata are controlled by guard cells. Through the stomata the process of transpiration occurs. the roots absorb water and excess of water evaporates by means of stomata.One fact is leaves under sunlight have higher stomatal density than leaves under shade.

HER1 signaling is triggered by individual HER1 monomers each binding to its ligand followed by homodimerization and autophosphor
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

E. HER3, but not HER2 binds to its ligand, causing it heterodimerize with HER2. This activates HER2 tyrosine kinase which creates a GRB2 binding site.

Explanation:

The receptor tyrosine-protein kinase, also known as human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3), is a transmembrane tyrosine kinase receptor that doesn't have a kinase domain. HER3 binds to the HER2 protein (another receptor tyrosine kinase receptor) to form a heterodimeric complex. Conversely to the HER3 protein, HER2 lacks a ligand-binding domain. The HER2/HER3 complex triggers the activation of the HER2 kinase domain which then autophosphorylates and thus generates a binding site for the Growth factor receptor-bound protein 2 (Grb2).

Which soil type is usually high in salt content but low in organic matter?
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

Sandy soil or Coarsely Textured Soils

Explanation:

All soils that have high amount of sand (sandy soil) or the one which have coarse texture are poor in organic matter retention and thus have low organic matter content. These soils are highly permeable and thus are unable to hold soil moisture and organic matter.

On the  other hand they have rich salt content because they are in touch with salty water of sea or oceans.
