Answer:

Answer is C. Tetanic contraction might occur which would stop the heart's pumping action.

Explanation:

Tetanic contraction occurs when the muscle fiber doesn't fully relax before it contracts again due to repeated stimuli at short intervals.

Reika [66]

Answer:

The correct answer is <em>A. real-time PCR can measure the amount of DNA amplified as the reaction proceeds, while standard PCR cannot.</em>

Explanation:

PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) is a molecular biology technique. Conventional PCR and real-time PCR are diferent types of PCR, and are both used to exponentially amplify DNA molecules. In both types, a polimerase enzyme is employed to sinthesize DNA copies. The main difference is that conventional PCR is qualitative whereas real-time PCR is quantitative. So, real-time PCR permits not only to detect and amplify DNA but also permits to perform a quantification of the target DNA. This is accomplished by measuring a fluorescence signal - which is directly the amount of DNA amplified- during the course of the reaction.

Birds, insects, and many reptiles excrete nitrogenous waste in the form of uric acid, which _____. see concept 44.2 (page 980)
Nadusha1986 [10]
Birds, insects, and many reptiles excrete nitrogenous waste in the form of uric acid, which saves water. 
Nitrogenous waste in the body tend to form toxic ammonia, which must be excreted. Mammals such as human excrete urea, while birds, reptiles, and some terrestrial invertebrates produce uric acid as waste in the form of a white paste or power. The production of uric acid involves a complex metabolic pathway that  is energetically costly in comparison to processing of other nitrogenous wastes such as urea or ammonia, it has the advantages of reducing water loss and, hence, reducing the need for water.

At the start of the lab, you will test known samples in order to see what positive and negative test results look
son4ous [18]

Answer:

I feel it's to easily differentiate the positive from the negative...... like in gram staining of bacteria, the colour tell us which bacteria is gram positive or gram negative...... I just feel that this is science and it is advisable to know what the opposite result of an experiment should look like.
