C. Temperature and pH can affect how enzymes work

Enzymes show a maximum activity at an optimum pH and temperature. Changes in the pH or the temperature can cause damage in the structure of the enzymes, if the structure changes the substrate can no longer bind to the enzyme, which is why the activity of the enzymes starts to slow down.

Chloride ions, Cl-, follow actively transported Na+ ions from the nephrons into the blood. Would you not expect the Cl- concentr
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Bicarbonate ion, HCO3- (which has a similar charge to chloride ions) also follow sodium ions into the blood. Also, potassium ions, K+ are transported into the nephron so some chloride ions and bicarbonate ions remains in the nephron to balance the charge.

Explanation:

Sodium is the primary positively charged electrolyte in extracellular fluid. Most of the solute reabsorbed in the proximal tubule is in the form of sodium bicarbonate and sodium chloride. Water is also reabsorbed in order to balance osmotic pressure

When sodium ions are reabsorbed into the blood, few of the substances that are transported with Na+ on the membrane facing the lumen of the tubules include Cl- ions, Ca2+ ions, amino acids, and glucose. Sodium is actively exchanged for K+ using ATP on the basal membrane.

In the distal convoluted tubule, K+ and H+ ions are selectively secreted into the filtrate, while Na+, Cl-, and HCO3- ions are reabsorbed to maintain pH and electrolyte balance in the blood.

Some chloride ions remains in the nephron to balance the charge of the secreted K+ ions and also due to the bicarbonate ions that are removed.

Compare and contrast properties of sister chromatids and homologous chromosomes.
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sister chromatids are regarded as replicated chromosomes. Sister chromatids are two identical copies of chromosomes held at the centromere that are formed as a result of replication. They are identical in the sense that they contain same alleles/gene sequence of the same genes.

Homologous chromosomes, on the other hand, are similar (in length, centromere position) but non-identical chromosomes. Homologous are non-identical in the sense that they may contain different alleles of a gene and are received from each parent. homologous chromosome contain four chromatids; two of which are sister chromatids and non-sister to the other two.

Both undergo meiosis where homologous chromosomes separate in meiosis I while sister chromatids separate in meiosis II but only sister chromatids undergo mitosis.

In a particular family, one parent has Type A blood, the other has Type B. They have four children. One has Type A, one has Type
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is -

Parental genotypes: AO & BO

Children genotypes: AB, AO, BO, and OO

Explanation:

In the human blood group system, more than two types of alleles are present that lead to the existence of four blood groups in the human population.

Here, A and B alleles are co-dominant while the O allele is recessive to both A and B alleles in the ABO system.

The cross depicting the genotypes of children is

IA IO

IB    IAIB    IBIO

IO   IAIO   IOIO

In this cross, we get the same result as given in the question -

One parent has A and the other has B type blood while the children have all four types of blood groups One has Type A, one has Type B, one has Type AB, and the last has Type O. It is possible only when parents are heterozygous in their genotypes and not expressing codominance.
