<u>Answer</u>: Weber's/Weber-Fechner's law of just noticeable difference
This phychologoical law is used to quantify the perception of change for a given stimulus. The perceived change is proportional/constant ratio to the initial stimulus. Thus, it is the minimum amount of a stimulus intensity change that will produce noticeable variation in sensory experience.
As in the example, it has been shown that this law is not function very well for extremes of stimulation.
Answer:
1. Pigs, Sheep, Goats, Cattle
2. The purpose of rearing pigs is to utilize them for human food but also supply skin, fat and other materials for use as clothing or leather, ingredients for processed foods, cosmetics, and medical use.
3. <em>Breeding</em> - when animals mate and then produce offspring.
<em>Species</em> - Organisms that have lots of characteristics in common, and can mate to produce fertile offspring.
<em>Herd</em> - a social group of certain animals of the same species, either wild or domestic.
Explanation:
4. Bovine - Cattle, Goats, Pigs
Ovine - Sheep
Equine - Horses and other members of the horse family
Answer: All of the statements are true.
Explanation:
Purines are biologically synthesized as nucleotides and in particular as ribotides, that is, bases attached to ribose 5-phosphate. Adenine and guanine are both derived from the nucleotide inosine monophosphate (IMP), which is the first compound in the pathway to have a completely formed purine ring system.
Purine nucleotides can be synthesized in two distinct pathways. First, purines are synthesized de novo, starting with simple starting materials such as amino acids and bicarbonate. the purine bases are assembled already attached to the ribose ring. Alternatively, purine bases, released by the hydrolytic degradation of nucleic acids and nucleotides, can be salvaged and recycled. Purine salvage pathways are mostly noted for the energy that they save and the remarkable effects of their absence.
All statements are correct because the organization of purine synthetic enzymes involves multifunctional enzymes, reversible enzyme formations, through out the sequence there is maintenance of high local concentration and the ten steps requires only six enzymes.
