Which of the following make mechanical obstruction of the intestinal lumen of the small or large bowel an acute emergency?

Biology

Julli [10]3 years ago

Distention from accumulating gas and fluid impede venous return, leading to bowel wall ischemia.

<u>Explanation:</u>

When the bowel lumen is obstructed, the gases and fuids starts accumulating as a repose to the obstruction. The accumulated fluid and gases results in the swelling or enlargement. This will result in the production of electrolytes and water inside the mumen that is in obstruction. The wall of the bowle will also enlarge and becomes swollen.

As more and more fluid and gas gets accumulated in the bowel, the bowel wall will be enlarged and as there is an increase in the pressure due to this accumulation, the fluid starts to leak from the wall. This will enter peritoneum and necrosis. This will result in an acute emergency when it becomes serious.

A _____ is a sequence of 3 nucleotides within mRNA that encodes for a specific amino acid or termination sequence. ​
gregori [183]

Answer: Codon

Explanation: A codon is a triplet of nucleotides in an mRNA that codes for specific amino acids. There are 64 possible codons. They are called the genetic codes. Three of these codons (UAA, UAG, UGA) do not code any known amino acid and are thus called termination codons. One of the codons (AUG) signals the beginning of translation and is thus called initiation codon.

The chart shows the total amount of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) that coal-fired utilities emitted between 199
horsena [70]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

If the graph line comes lowers from 1999 to 2013 so it means that steps taken by the EPA and the factories were effective in reducing air pollution. The steps taken by the EPA and the factories were effective in reducing air pollution occurs from two pollutants i. e nitrogen oxides (NOx) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) if they install chimneys which collect these gases and reduce pollution. if the factories uses coal having less concentration of sulphur so less air pollution occurs.

True or false?
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. Over time more and more molecules of DCPIP would be decreased by electrons taken from plastoquinone (Pq). This statement is true in the sense that DCPIP is an artificial electronic acceptor which is decreased by taking electrons from plastoquinone.

2.) Water splitting by Photosystem II would occur at higher levels than if the drug were administered without DCPIP. This statement is true.

3.)Events in Photosystem I would occur just as they would in the absence of drug and DCPIP. This statement is false because the drug obstructs the electron transport from plastoquinone to cytochrome B. So the events are abnormal because no protein transfer is involved in this mechanism.

In 2000, when then-President Clinton along with Francis Collins of the Human Genome Project and Craig Venter of Celera announced
taurus [48]

The millions of sequences were not put up together from their end and had no repeating non-coding sequences.

Explanation:

Celera Venter of Gene Myers started working in collaboration with the Human Genome project which was designed as a revolutionary concept of sequencing of human genome at a large scale. Myers break through the traditional method of sequencing and proposed of an idea of sequencing in a unique way.  

He suggested the method of breaking genome copies and then sequencing them together using LINEs. However, the declaration of this proposal by the Human project had certain failures at first as it lacked the non-coding repeating sequence.
