Answer: Lk for this plasmid = 47
Explanation:
The formula to compute Lk is given by :-
Topological Linking Number (Lk): Twist (Tw) + Writhe (Wr)
Given: A plasmid 41 twists and 6 right handed writhes.
i.e. Twist (Tw) = 41 , Writhe (Wr) = 6
Then, Topological Linking Number (Lk) for this plasmid : = 41+6
= 47
Hence, the Lk for this plasmid = 47
Answer: the membrane channel
Explanation:
In passive diffusion, the small water molecules can move across the phospholipid bilayer seen in blue. This layer acts as a semi-permeable or selectively permeable membrane; its hydrophilic heads are attracted to water (seen facing outwards) while its water-repellent hydrophobic tails face towards each other- allowing molecules of water to diffuse across the membrane along the concentration gradient.
Thus the water will move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration, until the system reaches a steady state called equilibrium- after this, there will be no net movement of water. Similarly via osmosis, the water passes through the membrane due to the difference in osmotic pressure on either side of the phospholipid bilayer this means that the water moves from regions of high osmotic pressure/concentration to regions of low pressure/ concentration to a steady state.
The dialysis tubing mimics a semi permeable membrane; it only allows water and small molecules of iodine to cross into the bag containing starch. The tubing is impermeable to starch; these large molecules require the aid of protein omplexes called membrane channels, in order to move across the membrane and against the concentration gradient.
The correct answer is A. Decline in vision
Explanation:
The term "middle age" is used to describe the time span between 45 and around 65 in human life. During this, important changes occur in terms of senses, this age usually implies a decline in senses including pain, taste, smell, and vision. In terms of vision, it is common during middle ages people began experiencing blurring vision or weakened vision as during this age conditions such as presbyopia, glaucoma, cataracts, among others. Additionally, the decline in vision in this age is commonly related to other conditions such as diabetes, the use of medicines and also jobs that are visually demanding. Thus, in middle age, people commonly experience a decline in vision.
