Answer: The statement that is FALSE is D (The death-promoting members of the Bcl2 family include Bcl2 itself.)

Explanation:

Apoptosis is a process found in multicellular organisms whereby cells follows a order of events which eventually leads to their death without releasing harmful substances into the surrounding area of the cells. Through this process, old cells, unnecessary cells, and unhealthy cells are eliminated from the body.

The process of apoptosis can be regulated by cell regulator proteins such as Bcl-2 family.

Bcl-2 stands for B-cell lymphoma 2 which are encoded in human cells by BCL2 gene. The Bcl-2 family are capable of regulating apoptosis by either inducing it or inhibiting it.

Bcl-2 and Bcl-XL, PREVENT apoptosis by preventing the release of mitochondrial apoptogenic factors such as cytochrome c and AIF (apoptosis-inducing factor) into the cytoplasm

Part of the Bcl-2 family is the Bax and Bak and they are the core regulators of the intrinsic pathway of apoptosis. They PROMOTE apoptosis by inducing the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria into the cytosol. Therefore, the death-promoting members of the Bcl2 family does not include Bcl2 itself.

4. Describe the relationship between producers and autotrophs.
siniylev [52]
Autotrophs are the producers in the food chain, meaning they create their own nutrients and energy. Kelp, like most autotrophs, creates energy through a process called photosynthesis. An autotroph is an organism that can produce its own food using light, water, carbon dioxide, or other chemicals

A student is standing 8 m from a roaring truck engine that is measured at 20 db. The student moves 4 m closer to the engine. Wha
icang [17]

Answer:

80 dB

Explanation:

Sound intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance traveled by the sound.

Thus;

r1^2 divide by r2^2 = L2divideL1

where r= distance (m)

L= sound intensity (decibal dB)

8squared divide by 4 squared = L2 divide 20 dB

L2 = 4 × 20

L2= 80 dB

This means that the sound is increased from 20 dB to 80 dB.

Which division of the ans is responsible for the physiological changes you experience when startled by a loud noise? (module 14.
Sliva [168]

Sympathetic nervous system under the Autonomic nervous system (ANS) is responsible for the physiological changes you experience when startled by a loud noise.

Autonomic nervous system (ANS) is part of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) and is responsible for control of vital functions.

ANS  possesses three divisions, they are : Sympathetic nervous system (SYNS), parasympathetic nervous system and enteric plexus.  Sympathetic nervous system is responsible for flight and fight responses.

SYNS also performs such tasks as relaxing the bladder, speeding up heart rate, and dilating eye pupils.

The ganglions associated with SYNS mostly arise from the thoracic and lumbar regions of the spinal cord.
