Answer: The correct answer for the blank is-

D) nuclear transfer.

Dolly was a female domestic sheep, and the first mammal that was cloned using an adult somatic cell ( particularly a mammary gland cell from a Finn Dorsett sheep). She was produced using a technique, which is termed as somatic cell nuclear transfer.

In this technique, the nucleus from an adult somatic cell was transferred to an unfertilized oocyte ( which was first enucleated that is nucleus was removed). After this, unfertlized egg was activated using electrical stimuli, which initiated cell division and produced Dolly.

Thus, option D) nuclear transfer is the right answer.

A(n) _______ is an uncontrolled positive feedback loop between cytokines and leucocytes.
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The given blank can be filled with cytokine storm.

Explanation:

Generally, influenza is self-restricting. Though serious cases can result in pneumonia and other issues, which can be deadly. However, such cases are very common in the elderly and in very young individuals. There are certain strains of the influenza virus, which are more dangerous to young adults in comparison to old or very young.  

The strains, which influence young adults are considered to comprise a cytokine storm, that is, a positive feedback loop, which produces in between the production of cytokines and leukocytes. This cytokine storm generates an acute inflammatory reaction, which results in brisk accumulation of fluid in the lungs, resulting in pulmonary failure. The very young or very old are less vulnerable to this influence as their immune systems are less strong.

The giant african land snail is an invasive species that is also the largest snail ons earth what is most likely consequence of
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

D. The native snail species will compete for resources with the invasive species and destabilize the ecosystem ​

Explanation:

In Ecology, an invasive species refers to a species of organism that is foreign i.e. non-native to a particular habitat or environment. They are characterized by the ability to proliferate in growth and compete for space and nutrients with the native species in the habitat they are introduced to.

In this case, the giant african land snail, which is an invasive species, if introduced into a stable ecosystem will compete for resources with the native species of that ecosystem leading to the destabilization of the ecosystem.

Differentiate between ;
Rasek [7]

Answer:

1) The main difference between Fats and Oils is that, fats are usually derived from animals, whereas oils are usually derived from plants.

Fats and oils are very important for every human body. It is mainly essential for daily dietary plan. Fats and oils are totally different from each other. In simple terms, fats are animal fats whereas oils are vegetable oils. The other difference is fats tend to be solids at room temperature; on the other hand, oils tend to be liquid at room temperature. Remember, on the daily basis the two terms can be used interchangeably because both, fats and oils contain 9 calories per grams.

2) Phospholipids are similar to triglycerides, but they do vary slightly in form and function. While triglycerides have glycerol and three fatty acids, phospholipids have glycerol, two fatty acids and a phosphate. Phosphates are molecules with charges and have oxygen and phosphorus. ... Fat cells do not store phospholipids.

3) Thoracic cavity, also called chest cavity, the second largest hollow space of the body. It is enclosed by the ribs, the vertebral column, and the sternum, or breastbone, and is separated from the abdominal cavity (the body’s largest hollow space) by a muscular and membranous partition, the diaphragm. It contains the lungs, the middle and lower airways—the tracheobronchial tree—the heart, the vessels transporting blood between the heart and the lungs, the great arteries bringing blood from the heart out into general circulation, and the major veins into which the blood is collected for transport back to the heart. The heart is covered by a fibrous membrane sac called the pericardium that blends with the trunks of the vessels running to and from the heart. The thoracic cavity also contains the esophagus, the channel through which food is passed from the throat to the stomach.

4) An organelle (think of it as a cell's internal organ) is a membrane bound structure found within a cell. Just like cells have membranes to hold everything in, these mini-organs are also bound in a double layer of phospholipids to insulate their little compartments within the larger cells.

5) Tissues are groups of similar cells that have a common function. An organ is a structure that is composed of at least two or more tissue types and performs a specific set of functions for the body. Many organs working together to accomplish a common purpose is called an organ system.

6) Absorption: The process of absorbing food in the form of nutrients into the blood stream of the body. Assimilation: The process of nutrients being absorbed by each cell of the body in the form of energy. Egestion: Secretion of waste, unwanted and excess substances from the body after food the as been digestion
