Answer:

Blood vessels constrict

Explanation:

On seeing danger, impulses are sent to the adrenal medulla. It responds by secreting adrenaline into the bloodstream. This results in the following:

  • Increased heartbeat
  • Diversion of blood from alimentary canal and skin to skeletal muscles.
  • Increased breathing rate and depth
  • The liver releases more glucose.

These changes increase energy production especially in the skeletal muscles and prepare animal for sudden fight or flight.

What is the pH of an aqueous solution with the hydronium ion concentration
Anni [7]

Answer:

pH = 13.70

Explanation:

pH is a value used in chemistry to determine nature of solutions, quality of several chemicals, etc.

pH is defined as -log [H₃O⁺]

A solution with molar concentration of hydronium ion, H₃O⁺. of 2x10⁻¹⁴M, has as pH:

pH = -log [2x10⁻¹⁴M]

pH = 13.70

An organism's genome is analyzed and found to contain 18% guanine. What percentage of that organism's DNA is adenine?
Oxana [17]

Answer:

32%

Explanation:

According to Chargaff in his complementary base pairing rule, he stated that the proportion of purine and pyrimidine bases is equal to 100%

That is, A + T + G + C = 100%

Where A=T and G=C i.e the proportion of each base pair is equal.

Hence, if the Guanine content is 18%, it means the Cytosine content of that DNA molecule must also be 18%. Therefore:

18 + 18 + A + T = 100

A + T = 100 - 36

A + T = 64

If the sum proportion of Adenine and Thymine is 64% and each must contain equal proportions, A or T = 64/2 = 32

Hence, Adenine contains 32%, likewise Thymine.
