There are choices for this question namely: 

a) Total pancreatectomy
b) Cholecystojejunostomy
c) Radical pancreatoduodenectomy
<span>d) Distal pancreatectomy

The correct answer is Radical Pancreaticoduodenectomy. This surgical procedure involves the dissection of the head of the pancreas as well as the duodenum and the stomach. The three structures will be joined together as to make the secretions of the pancreas, gall bladder (through the duodenum) and the stomach go be secreted on the middle portion of the small intestine. This reroutes the secretions to bypass the diseased parts of the organs.</span>

Stanozolol is an anabolic, androgenic (testosterone-like) steroid that acts as an agonist at androgen receptors. Unlike testoste
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

It will result /lead to side effect that could be fatal and life threatening since its inactivation time is longer thus the effect of the large dose will be more pronounced and long lasting.

Explanation:

An hormone agonist is a compound/molecule that can bind to the hormone specific receptor leading to the activation of the endocrine gland, the biosynthesis of secreted hormone and the eliciting the physiological effects of such hormone. Androgenic anabolic efficacy  of steroids is usually goverened by their receptor binding andspecificity and their biotransformation from active to inactive form. Possible  side effect include elevated blood pressure, voice deepening, decease libido, early myocardial infarction and many more

In chickens, comb shape is determined by genes at two loci (R, r and P, p). A walnut comb is produced when at least one dominant
slega [8]

Answer:

1:1:1:1 walnut comb

Explanation:

If a cross is made between a female who is RRpp (rose comb) and a male who is rrPP (pea comb)  then:

P: RRpp  x  rrPP

F1: RrPp RrPp RrPp RrPp

This means that all of the offspring in F1 generation will have heterozygous genotype (at both loci). Since it contains both dominant alleles, the phenotype is walnut comb.

Polysaccharides are polymers of monosaccharides. Homopolysaccarides are made up of only one type of monomer, whereas heteropolys
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

All four types of polysaccharides are homopolymers ie they are made up of repeating units of only one type of monomers.

Starch, glycogen and cellulose are made up of repeating monomeric units of glucose with the number of glucose units and the different linkage types different these molecules. E.g the linkage between glucose units in glycogen is alpha 1-4 linkages and in cellulose, we have glucose in beta 1-4 linkages.

In chitin, a derivative of glucose is present in repeating units, here, we have N-acetyl-D-glucosamine in beta 1-4 linkages.

Give at least one example of epistasis?
boyakko [2]

Answer:

Example of the Epistasis in plants is observed in the "summer squash".

Explanation:

Epistasis refers to a gene interaction in which one gene is masked by the other gene and affect the phenotype. The gene which masks the other gene is known as the epistatic gene and the gene which is being masked is known as the hypostatic gene.

The epistasis gene effect is observed in which more than one gene controls the same phenotype.

The example can be observed in the summer squash fruits in which more than one gene controls the color of the fruit.

The summer squash can be controlled by the white allele (W), Yellow allele (G) and the green by the recessive form of the w and g. If the W gene is present than it masks the other allele and thus white colour becomes dominant and is considered the case of the dominant epistasis.
