Why is mitosis important to your body

Verizon [17]

How is mitosis important for your body?

Mitosis is very important to the human body because it allows for the duplication of body cells. Human body cells constantly need to be created for many reasons such as that the body is constantly changing in size, and when someone gets hurt, mitosis is used to repair the damaged area whether it be internal or external.

Bob, a nutritionist who works for the university medical center, has been asked to prepare special diets for two patients, susan

abruzzese [7]

Answer and Explanation:

Possibly, you forgot to attach the table with the contents of each food. Therefore, I calculated the task with similar values.

1. Assume you have Food A, B, and C. Each has certain amount of Calcium, Iron, and Vit C.

Let's designate: Calcium → X oz , Iron → Y oz, vit C → Z oz

2. Assume you have following amount of Calcium in each food:

Food A = 30 mg/oz
Food B = 25 mg/oz
Food C = 20 mg/oz

3. Assume you have following amount of Iron in each food:

Food A = 1 mg/oz
Food B = 1 mg/oz
Food C = 2 mg/oz

4. Assume you have following amount of vit C in each food:

Food A = 2 mg/oz
Food B = 5 mg/oz
Food C = 4 mg/oz

Calculations:

→ You have 3 different food and each has Calcium in it. You need exactly 320mg of Calcium per day. Therefore, each food would comprise certain proportion of daily Calcium intake. We can come up with equation: 30X+25Y+20Z = 390 mg

Similarly, for iron and vitamin C, the next equations could be used:

X+Y+2Z=17 - Iron

2X+5Y+4Z=42 - Vit C

→ Now you have a system of equations:

30X+25Y+20Z = 390 (1)

X+Y+2Z=17 (2)

2X+5Y+4Z=42 (3)

→ Look for similarities! (1) and (3) seem to be similar. We can multiply the (3) by -5 to obtain: -10X-25Y-20Z=-210. We add the (1) and modified (3) equations.

30X+25Y+20Z = 390

-10X-25Y-20Z=-210

__________________

20X+0+0=180

20X=180

→ X=9 (oz of Calcium)

→ Now, we can put x=9 into equations above to ease our job:

270+25Y+20Z=390 → 25Y+20Z=390-270=120

9+Y+Z=17 → Y+2Z=17-9=8

18+5Y+4Z=42 → 5Y+4Z=42-18=24

→ Similarly, we can use Eq-s (2) and (3). We can multiply the (2) by -5 to obtain: -5Y-10Z=-40. We add the (3) and modified (2) equations.

-5Y-10Z=-40

5Y+4Z=24

__________________

-6Z=-24

Z=4

→ Z=4 (oz of vit C)

→ Now, we can take X+Y+Z=17 (2) and just put in known values(X=9 and Z=4) to obtain Y:

9+Y+4=17

→ Y=17-9-4=4 (oz of Iron)

That's all! So, if you have table values, you can just re-write the equations and doing it stepwise, as it is shown here, you can manage to calculate every value you need :)

Which of the following statements explains why the insertion of a nucleotide in a DNA sequence could result in a phenotypic chan

Triss [41]

When you insert a nucleotide into a DNA sequence, this is a frame shift mutation. All of the letters after the insterted nucleotide will be shifted one place, changing the whole protien which was coded for. Whatever protien was coded for by that DNA sequence is now changed, resulting in a phenotypic change.
