Answer;

-PET scan

A PET scan uses radioactive markers in the blood to monitor blood flow and metabolic activity via x-ray

Explanation;

-A positron emission tomography (PET) scan is an imaging test that helps reveal how the tissues and organs are functioning. A PET scan uses a radioactive drug (tracer) to show this activity. This scan can sometimes detect disease before it shows up on other imaging tests.

-A PET scan is used to diagnose certain health conditions, to plan treatment, to find out how an existing condition is developing, and to see how effective a treatment is.

-In a PET scan, a machine detects radiation that is emitted by a radiotracer. A radiotracer consists of radioactive material that is tagged to a natural chemical, such as glucose.

Identify the types of point mutations depicted. Glycine (G G C) is transformed to Glycine (G G A). Glycine Glycine missense muta
Charra [1.4K]

A single change or alteration in the nucleotide base of the genetic material of the cell is called a point mutation.  It can be a deletion, addition or inversion of a single nucleotide base.

In the following, the mutations that occurred are 1. C and 2. B.

<h3>How the mutation can be explained?</h3>

  • <u>Silent mutation</u> occurs in a single base of the triplet codons of the bases but the alterations do not cause an observable effect and they remain as a neutral alteration. They do not affect the function of the protein. Thus, the glycine to glycine is a silent mutation.

  • <u>Non-sense mutations</u> are caused when the single change in the nucleotide base results in the formation of the stop codon. Thus, lysine to stop codon is a nonsense mutation.

Therefore, silent and nonsense mutations are the correct options.

At sea level, water boils at 100ºC. At an elevation of 500 meters, however, water will boil at 98.4ºC. Why do you think elevatio
rjkz [21]

I think elevation impacts the temperature at which water boils because...

As the altitude increases the pressure in the atmosphere decreases. This means that when the atmospheric pressure is lower, your water will reach it's boiling point faster. (AKA: at a lower temperature.)

Place the terms into the correct column that describes the reactions of photosynthesis.
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

In the light-dependent reaction, which occurs in the THYLAKOID MEMBRANE of the chloroplast, energy from SUNLIGHT is used to breakdown WATER to release electrons in order to synthesize ATP and NADPH from ADP and NADP+. In a nutshell, the processes involved in this stage are Electron transport chain, photosystem I, photosystem II, and ATP synthase.

- In the light-independent stage, also called CALVIN CYCLE, the ATP, NADPH, and CO2 are used as reactants to synthesize SUGAR (glucose), NADP+ and ADP (which goes back to the first stage) as products.
