What is the practice of leaving old stalks to provide cover from the rain called?
Travka [436]

Answer:

No-till farming, which is the practice of leaving old stalks, provides cover from rain. The cover reduces water runoff and slows soil erosion. Contour plowing helps prevent erosion from heavy rains.

When you eat a large meal and your body absorbs a lot of glucose and that makes its way to the interstitial fluid before going i
Brrunno [24]

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The glucose is the basic unit of energy. It is absorbed by the cells of the body. The glucose that is taken inside the body by the means of food is utilized to gain energy.

The glucose that is absorbed from the food moves to interstitial spaces before going inside the cell.

100% of the glucose is transferred from the interstitial spaces of the cell to the inside of the cell.

This is because more amount of the glucose is still outside the cell as it is absorbed completely.

Your Mother needs to transfer (i.e., encode) a list of 25 vocabulary words from her STM to her LTM. She asks for your help. You
-Dominant- [34]

The best technique for your mother is that she uses each word in a sentence to give it a meaning, and remember it better (option 2).

Elaborative rehearsal is a common technique used to remember information in a long-term way. Due to this, this technique can be used to move information from short-term memory to long-term memory.

In this technique, the main purpose is to associate the new information with something you already know. In learning new words, this can include:

  • Associating new words to images.
  • Creating examples of sentences.
  • Associating a new word to a synonym you already know.

In this context, the technique that is part of elaborative rehearsal is using the word in a sentence (option 2).

Describe the process of altering the genetic variation of a cell using a genetically modified virus for human gene therapy. In t
Len [333]
In human gene therapy, a genetically modified virus (a.k.a. a viral vector) can alter the genetic variation of a cell, but not all viral vectors do.

The process often begins with the delivery of or creation of a segment of viral double stranded DNA (containing the gene you want to introduce). Then typically an enzyme known as an integrase cuts the ends of the segment of viral DNA and also cuts open the cell's DNA. Then the viral DNA is integrated/ inserted into the cell's DNA. The connecting ends are ligated together and adjusted so that the nucleotide base pairs match up.

This in the future may affect the gene pool for instance if the viral DNA (your gene) was inserted in the middle of another gene or important regulatory sequence of the cell DNA, and this alteration may be passed on into offspring and become present in the gene pool, which could have bad effects.

The effects on the gene pool really depends on what the virus ends up doing. For example, it may fix the function of a damaged gene which is the goal, and allow for a working gene to be in the gene pool, which would be good. The problem with gene therapy is that it's difficult to predict 100% what the virus will do every time it is given to a patient.

But it's very important to consider that it will only affect the gene pool if the virus is able to enter and alter germ cells (reproductive cells). If the virus, enters somatic cells (regular body cells) this will not be passed on to future generations. So viruses can be designed to avoid germ cells and avoid this gene pool issue. Also, some viral vectors use viruses that do not integrate their DNA, the cells just express the viral DNA (create the desired protein from it) and over time the viral DNA is degraded/ lost which wouldn't pose this threat.

This is long, but I hope it helped!

Why do you think our body cells are called basic unit of life?
densk [106]

Answer:

Cells make up the smallest level of a living organism such as yourself and other living things. The cellular level of an organism is where the metabolic processes occur that keep the organism alive. That is why the cell is called the fundamental unit of life.
