Answer:

a The pulmonary artery carries deoxygenated blood.

Explanation:

This is the the only artery that transports deoxygented blood in mammals. specifically it carry deoxgenated blood from the the atria to the pulmonary circulation. That is to the lungs for the exchange of the C02 in the deoxygenated blood with oxygen in the lungs.

The blood thus become oxygenated,and therefore return through the pulmonary veins to the left ventricle.

From the left ventricle ,through ventricular systole,blood is empty into the aorta through the aortic valves into the systemic circulation.

Although,they carry blood away from the heart,but the blood is de oxygenated instead of the usual oxygenated by arteries,They are still regarded as arteries because of convey of blood away from the heart,a typical role of arteries

The nucleoside analogue acyclovir, which is used to treat herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections, lacks a 3′ hydroxyl group (–OH)

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

There won't be any functional viral DNA synthesis

Explanation:

First of all, you must consider that the HSV has a double-stranded, linear DNA genome. Furthermore, the DNA skeleton is made of the 5'-3' phosphodiester bond. In other words, the 5-phosphat of a nucleotide will bond the 3' OH of the Deoxyribose (see image).

Therefore, if you add a molecule which lacks the 3' OH, such as acyclovir, and has a similar chemical structure to a regular nucleotide, the DNA polimerase will be able to add acyclovir to the main backbone of the viral genome. All in all, you'd be ''cheating'' the DNA pol.

Hence, wherever acyclovir was integrated, there won't be any chance to form a 5'-3' phosphodiester bond. The protomolecule will not be stable and will soon be degradated.

When a gas is compressed, its volume__ does not change increases decreases

igomit [66]

Answer:w

when a gas is compressed, its' volume decreases.

Explanation:

When a gas is compressed, its volume usually decreases which also causes an increase in temperature. The pressure in addition increases which causes and increase of gas molecules. The molecules collide more frequently which is the reason why temperature will increase.

A membrane become depolarize when sodium enters the neuron via chemically gated sodium channels, this means that, the membrane become more positive when sodium ions diffuse into the cells.
