D. Because an amino acid is a monomer of a protein, meaning when a bunch of them are put together it’s a protein. And so it is when a bunch of monosaccharides are put together, it makes a polysaccharide

How can I use MIE scattering to determine the best particle size to light scattering with glasses?

Gwar [14]

Answer:

There is a simple algebraic formula relating turbidity to optical properties. You do not need Mie theory. It is given in van de Hulst "Light scattering from small particles" (a nice cheap reprint from Dover Press). More easily accessible are any of the Mie calculators avaiable on the Internet, say Miecalc, these will give the exact result.

What part of the intestinal tract prevents backflow of food from the stomach into the esophagus? a. diaphragm b. lower esophagea

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The correct option is b. lower esophageal sphincter

Explanation:

The esophagus is the initial part of the digestive tract and its function is the transport of the alimentary bolus from the pharynx to the stomach, through the thorax and avoid the reflux thereof. It begins and ends in two sphincter structures, the upper esophageal sphincter and the lower esophageal sphincter, which separate it from the pharynx and stomach. The lower esophageal sphincter has two functions: relax during swallowing and prevent reflux of the gastric contents into the esophagus in the postdeglutory period. After swallowing, there is a relaxation of the lower esophageal sphincter, pressure dropping to levels similar to those of the gastric fundus, which allows the bolus to enter the stomach. This relaxation lasts a few seconds and is followed by a strong contraction that prevents backflow of food.

Check Your Understanding Question: What is an adaptation?

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

an adaptation can be defined as an inherited trait which confers an evolutionary advantage to the organism in a certain environment

Explanation:

An adaptation, also known as an evolutionary adaptation, can be defined as any physiological and/or morphological inherited trait related to the improved evolutionary fitness of one organism in a particular environment. An adaptation improves the chances of survival and reproduction in a certain environment, thereby organisms carrying the adaptation have more chances to produce descendants and pass their genes to the next generation. Some classical examples of evolutionary adaptations include the long necks of giraffes that help them to eat leaves at the top of trees, light bones of flying birds, etc.

The crispr system involves the cas9 enzyme, which identifies specific nucleotides to be cut using a(n) ________ molecule as a gu

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

RNA

Explanation:

CRISPR system was discovered by a Japanese scientist. Naturally bacteria and many other prokaryotes have CRISPR system in their genome which they use as a self defense against a pathogen which is invading them. It consists of inter spaced, short palindromic nucleotide repeats which encode a guide RNA (gRNA). This guide RNA (gRNA) recognizes the target sequence on the pathogen. The gRNA is followed by Cas9 enzyme which along with the gRNA plays a very important role in breaking genome of the pathogen. Once the target gene is cut down the rest of the DNA can be rejoined by non homologous end joining.

But nowadays, scientists are using this system for genome editing and incorporating desired gene between the two ends which are cut down by CRISPR Cas9 system.
