If you treated embryos with a Notch inhibitor how would this affect the specification of venous and arterial endothelial cells?

Answer:

d. all endothelial cells would be venous

Explanation:

The Notch signaling pathway is a cell signaling system which consist basically of 4 NOTCH genes ( NOTCH1, NOTCH2, NOTCH3, and NOTCH4) each of them having the information to build a particular cell membrane receptor protein.

It has been demonstrated in zebrafish embryos that Notch signaling are highly determinant factors during vascular development, and a key function of these genes was specifically to regulate the differentiation of arterial fate in endothelial cells.

Notch signaling-deficient embryos showed a loss of expression of arterial markers such as ephrinB2 from arterial vessels with an accompanying expansion of venous markers into normally arterial domains. In contrast, embryos in which Notch signaling had been ectopically activated, meaning an activation out of "proper" place (where not expected, e.g. venous endothelial), exhibited the contrary phenotype, this is a suppression of vein-specific markers with ectopic expression of arterial markers in venous vessels.

To summarize, when Notch is supressed (in this case inhibited with a specific Notch inhibitor) arterial fate of endothelium is not followed, and venous fate is stablished. Thus, endothelial cells (those expected to form venous tissues but also arterial ones) would specified as venous.

Nurse darla is planning care for ms. goodwin, who has a prolapsed cord
babunello [35]
The priority action for Darla to take is to apply pressure through the vaginal canal on the presenting parts. In which by these technique applying pressure over the vaginal canal on the presenting parts will help relieve pressure on the umbilical cord. In addition, umbilical cord prolapse happens when the umbilical cord moves toward out of the uterus with or before the offering part of the fetus. It is a comparatively infrequent circumstance and happens in less than 1% of the prenatal period.

Match the description on the right with the force on the left.
Marat540 [252]

Magnetic force - B.

Electrical force - A.

Gravitational force - D.

Contact force - C.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

When a charge moves about its path, it produces a magnetic force around it. This magnetic field is perpendicular to the axis of movement of the charge and is directly proportional to the amount of charge, speed of the charge, and inversely proportional to distance between the charge and the point of measurement. Michael Faraday discovered this phenomenon.

Electrical force of attraction or repulsion is seen between the two charged bodies, or one charged body and one uncharged body which can induce charge to the uncharged body. The attraction or repulsion between the charged bodies are seen if the bodies are close enough, and this is called electrical force.

The gravitational force is also a non contact force that is seen between two bodies which is always attractive in nature and is seen between any two bodies.

A contact force like friction is a type of force that takes place only when two bodies are in contact with each other.

Explain how water enter the soil root hairs of the plant
Juli2301 [7.4K]

since the roots hairs grow in soil particles, they get water from the soil, thereby the cell wall and cell membrane absorbs the water through osmosis before transferring it to other parts of the roots

An athlete might believe that there is a benefit to blood doping with red blood cells
EleoNora [17]
Yes, blood doping can improve your performance. Red blood cells contain lots of oxygen, thus, by filling your body with this oxygen-rich blood, you gain a lot more endurance and strength.
