How do the diaphragm and rib muscles help with breathing? These muscles

Biology
1 answer:
Ratling [72]3 years ago
3 0
When you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts and moves downward. This increases the space in your chest cavity, and your lungs expand into it. The muscles between your ribs also help enlarge the chest cavity. They contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale

Why does DNA need to be copied into mRNA?
larisa86 [58]

mRNA will serve as reference book that contains information as the DNA and its sequence is complementary to the DNA template.

The transfer of information in a DNA strand to a new molecule of messenger RNA is known as transcription. Thus, the process of transcription is carried out by an enzyme called RNA polymerase and a number of accessory proteins called transcription factors. However, DNA is copied into mRNA because mRNA will serve as reference book that contains information as the DNA and its sequence is complementary to the DNA template.

What were the two driving forces that drove the evolution in the variation of skin color
yarga [219]

Answer:

The correct answer is: geography and UV radiation.

Explanation:

Skin variation occurred thanks to evolution, and was driven as a consequence of the geographical location of different populations of humans.

The humans that lived in hot and sunny places, closer to the equator, where much more exposed to the sun's ultraviolet radiation. In order to survive the amount of UV lights that they were exposed to, new humans in those regions were being born with a darker skin tone, which was rich in melanin (a brown pigment that protects us from the sun radiation).

Contrary to these humans that lived in the tropical areas, the humans that populated the areas that were closer to the poles, developed much lighter skin as a result of lower amounts of melanin in their skin. Since sun exposure in the poles is very limited, humans needed to receive as much as they could for the production of Vitamin D, and thus, their skins got lighter and less protected.

While ____ hormones can travel freely in the blood,_____ hormones require a carrier protein because they are not soluble in the
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

While <u>water soluble</u> hormones can travel freely in the blood, <u>lipid soluble </u>hormones require a carrier protein because they are not soluble in the aqueous plasma

Explanation:

The water-soluble hormones such as insulin are dissolved in the blood and are carried along with the blood to their target cells.  

However, lipid-soluble hormones such as steroid hormones (cortisol) and thyroxine are hydrophobic in nature. These hormones are not dissolved in water-based blood plasma. So, these lipid-soluble hormones are carried through the carrier proteins.
