Infants’ bodies contain more water (75%) than those of older humans. Their kidneys are not fully mature yet thus they excrete more diluted urine. This cause easy dehydration and a higher risk of illness for infants. Infants are less resistant to heat since their thermoregulatory systems are not as developed. Parents and caregivers must see to it that infants are provided water for their hydration.
Heterozygous
For example we cross AA which is Homozygous Dominant and aa which is recesive
(AA)×(aa)
Aa Aa Aa Aa
So the answer is hetrozygous
<h2>Sugar beet harvest </h2>
Explanation:
Sugar beets have to be harvested and stockpiled in September because they have to get the root out of the ground before the ground freezes
- Sugar beets are harvested with two primary pieces of equipment
- The defoliator removes the green leaves and slices a slab from the top of the sugar beet root
- This removed slab is the growing point of the sugar beet and contains high levels of impurities, which impede the factories ability to extract the sugar from the remainder of the harvested root
- The sugar beet root is then harvested with a pinch wheel harvester, which pinches the root and lifts from the soil
- The sugar beet harvester also separates some soil and conveys the sugar beet into a truck to be transported to a receiving station
Answer:
The myosin filament or more precisely the myosin head can now bind to the actin forming the cross bridges followed by a power stroke during which actin slides over myosin.
Explanation:
The muscle contraction can be explained by sliding filament theory bu Huxley and Huxley. The two muscle proteins which take part in muscle contraction are myosin and actin.
Myosin: It is a hexameric protein. Each monomer is called meromyosin. Each meromyosin has two important parts, a globular head with a short arm and a tail. The head forms cross bridges with the actin filament. Myosin head acts as ATPase enzyme. When ATP binds, head acts as enzyme hydrolyzing the ATP to produce energy. The head also has the site for binding of actin.
Actin filament: It contains three proteins, filamentous actin, tropomyosin and troponin. Filamentous actin contains active site for myosin binding but at rest, tropmyosin covers the myosin binding site. This prevents the cross bridge formation. Tropomyosin are held in place by troponin molecules.
When calcium is available, the binding of calcium to a TpC sub-unit of troponin causes the shifting of tropomyosin-troponin complex. Now actin can attach to myosin head and slide over myosin.
The actin filaments slide over the myosin filament by the the formation of cross bridges and during this process the I-band gets reduced whereas the A band remain the same. The lengths of actin and myosin filaments remain unchanged.
