Answer:

The correct answer is - b, d, a, and c is correct order.

Explanation:

The correct steps of the dihydroxyacetone phosphate/glycerol-3-phosphate shuttle is as follows -

DHAP or dihydroxyacetone phosphate is reduced by NADH in the glycerol-3-phosphate than flavin-dependent glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase transform glycerol-3-phosphate back to DHAP and reduced to FAD to FADH2.

Which is follows by the an electron pair is transport to the coenzyme Q from electron after that the DHAP returns to the back to the cytosol.

What negative effect does sickle-cell disease have on the circulatory system?

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Because sickled cells restrict blood flow, individuals can periodically experience swelling and extreme pain in any body organ or joint. This can last for hours or weeks. Sometimes permanent damage can occur to organs deprived of oxygen and nutrients

Explanation:

Red blood cells are designed to pick up oxygen in the lungs and transport it throughout the body via the circulatory system. Their donut-like shape and water-balloon-like flexibility allows them to pass through even the tiniest blood vessels.

Sickle cell anemia is a hereditary condition that causes some red blood cells to distort into rigid crescent moon shapes.

Normal red blood cells can flow freely through blood vessels. Sickled cells get stuck in the blood vessels and cause blockages.

Which statement(s) about lipases is/are true?

Digiron [165]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- C.

Explanation:

Lipase is the enzymes which aid in the digestion of the fats in the body. The main types of digestive lipases are secreted by the pancreas which acts on the glycerol of the triglycerides. The pancreatic lipase acts on the fats in the small intestine which break down the fats into smaller molecules called micelles.

Other type of lipases are present in the body which also helps in the digestion of the fats like lipoprotein lipase which acts on the lipoproteins formed by the breakdown of the cholesterol-like low and very low density lipoproteins. These lipoproteins in the blood are activated by the Apoc-II component and after the breakdown of lipoproteins delivers them to peripheral tissues.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

For eye color, the brown allele is dominant over the blue allele. If two parents are heterozygous for eye color, what percentage

vlada-n [284]

So, since the trait is eye color, let's use E to represent the dominant allele (brown) and e to represent the recessive allele (blue).

I've attached a Punnett square, but let me real quick explain how I set it up. We know that both parents are heterozygous, which means that they have one of each allele. So that gave us the two sides. Then I filled in the boxes (I assume you've leaned how to do this, if message me and I can explain it).

Looking at the results we can see that 1/4 of the offspring are EE, 1/2 are Ee, and 1/4 are ee. Since the blue allele (e) is recessive, it'll only be expressed if no dominant brown alleles (E) are present. Therefore, only the ee genotype will exhibit blue eyes. So, 1/4 or 25% of the offspring will have blue eyes.

Hope that helps! If you need clarification or anything feel free to message me :)
