Spines primarily have a protective function in plants. The spines can be sharp, and form a physical barrier against herbivores which may want to feed on the plant. Spines however also have other benefits. The spines on a jumping cactus allow segments of the cactus to stick to passing large animals or humans, thereby allowing the cactus to spread to other areas through asexual propagation. Spines are modified leaves, and spines have a much lower surface area than leaves, and therefore can reduce transpirative loss of water by the plant during harsh droughts. Some trees in alpine regions, such as pine trees, have developed spine-like leaves to prevent the accumulation of snow in the branches.
Answer:
<u>The correct answer is that our student accumulated lactic acid.</u>
Explanation:
<u>What is acid lactic and where it comes from?</u> It comes from the breakdown of glucose when there is no oxygen present (glycolytic metabolism), that is, in an anaerobic exercise such as running or cycling at high speed, like the case of our student, where there is a high intensity and a very short duration.
<u>What happen then? </u>When we keep doing exercise with high intensity an exercise, lactic acid will begin to accumulate by not giving the body time to remove it.
<u>How can we avoid lactic acid?</u> With training, there is no more. Based on training, the body deploys adaptive mechanism that causes lactic acid not to accumulate so quickly and if it begins to do so, the muscle supports it more effectively.
A 3-base deletion in the AAUAAA sequence in the 3' untranslated region of an mRNA that eliminates the AAU, thereby preventing RNA polymerase from polyadenylation the mRNA would have the effect of; decreasing the number copies of the polyeptide that would be translated from this mRNA. A deletion is a mutation in which a part of a chromosome or a sequence of DNA is lost during DNA replication.
