What is the main term and essential modifier in the alphabetic index

Biology
1 answer:
Setler79 [48]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Main term is acute myocardial infarction

Essential modifier is heart attack

Explanation:

It should be understood that essential modifiers appear next to a lead term or as subterms indented below lead terms in the alphabetical index and do affect the selection of target code. They describe essential differences in site, etiology or type of disorder and must appear in the clinical statement for the code to be assigned.

4. Which of the following statements best describes how the traits of an organism are determined
butalik [34]

Answer Choices:

DNA provides the energy needed for an organism to grow and function

DNA is copied into mRNA, which controls cellular functions

DNA codes for proteins, which allow an organism to grow and function

DNA unzips and each strand codes for a different amino acid

Answer:

DNA codes for proteins, which allow an organism to grow and function

Explanation:

DNA provides the energy needed for an organism to grow and function  - this is false. DNA does not provide energy. A molecule called ATP, mostly produced by cellular respiration, provides energy for the cells to grow and function.

DNA is copied into mRNA, which controls cellular functions  - this is false. While it is true that DNA is copied into mRNA, mRNA does not directly control cellular functions. Instead, mRNA is translated into proteins.

DNA codes for proteins, which allow an organism to grow and function  - <u>this is true, as indicated above, DNA is transcribed to mRNA which is translated into proteins. Proteins carry out essentially all the functions in the cell</u>

DNA unzips and each strand codes for a different amino acid - this is false, DNA is transcribed into mRNA. Each mRNA codon (three bases) codes for a different amino acid

Based on what you were told about the reproduction of the snails, write a question that could be researched
ValentinkaMS [17]

Question: If they aren't hermaphrodites, can they still be male and female at the same time?


Facts: Different snails reproduce differently, but most snails are "hermaphrodites." Being a hermaphrodite means that any given snail can be both male and female at the same time. This can make it a lot easier for snails to reproduce and quickly make a whole lot of snails! Some hermaphrodite snails do not need another snail to reproduce, but can make more snails all by themselves (this is called asexual reproduction). Other snails are hermaphrodites but still need another snail to reproduce (this is called sexual reproduction). There are also some snails that aren't hermaphrodites, but are either male or female, and must find a snail of the opposite sex to breed with.

1. How are macromolecule polymers assembled from monomers? How are they broken down?
CaHeK987 [17]
Macromolecule polymers are assembled by the connecting of repeating monomers. For every subunit supplementary to a macromolecule one water molecule is detached. Macromolecule polymers are broken down by breaking bonds among subunits. This procedure is named hydrolysis and is the opposite of dehydration in which they are broken down over hydrolysis or the use of water to break down polymers.

There are both short term and long term complications of diabetes. Describe an example below for each category.
mariarad [96]
A long term complication of diabetes is damage to smaller and larger blood vessels. As a result of this, it can cause damage to the heart, brain, eyes and legs- this is often why people have to have part of their leg amputated due to diabetes. A short term complication of diabetes is Hypoglycaemia, Ketoacidosis, and these are a result of the blood glucose becoming too low. This is usually when someone has to inject themselves with insulin, or have something sweet that is able to increase their blood sugar levels. Hope this helps :)
