Answer:

Cardiac output = 20 L/min

Explanation:

The cardiac output of a person refers to the volume of blood the heart pumps in a minute. The normal range for cardiac output is about 4 to 8 L/min. However, this can vary depending on the metabolic needs of the individual at any instant of time, for example, it is higher when exercising than  when resting.

Cardiac output is calculated from the product of the stroke volume in liters/min and the heart rate in beats/min

Cardiac output  = stroke volume * heart rate

For the individual who is running; stroke volume = 100 mL/beat or 0.1 L/beat

heart rate = 200 beats/min

Cardiac output =0.1 L/beat * 200 beats/min

Cardiac output = 20 L/min

The primary function of DNA polymerase is to:
Debora [2.8K]

Answer: Option A

The primary function of DNA polymerase is to add nucleotides to the growing daughter strands.

Explanation:

DNA polymerase is an enzyme that synthesis DNA and its main function is to make DNA from nucleotides which is the building block of DNA. It is essential for DNA replication and work in pairs by creating identical DNA strands from the original DNA molecule. DNA copies are created by pairing the nucleotides to each bases present in the DNA molecule.The bases are thymine, cytostine,guanine, and adenine, the pairing occur with any of the above combinations forming two pairs respectively.

What goes into the cell for cr to occur
BARSIC [14]
<span>In the presence of oxygen, one glucose molecule has the energy to make up to 38 ATP. The ATP production is determined by the following steps, (-2 ATP) glycolysis preparatory phase, (7-9 ATP) glycolysis pay-off phase, (5 ATP) oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate and (20 ATP) Krebs cycle. One glucose which has 38 ATP hence was the summation of all the process mentioned that took place.  All these process take place under the cellular function of cellular respiration.<span>

Which of the following is NOT a mechanism used to temporally regulate the activity of maturation-promoting factor (MPF)?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

C. glycosylation

Explanation:

The maturation-promoting factor (MPF) is a cell cycle checkpoint that stimulates the passage from G2 (prophase) to M phase (metaphase). MPF also determines that DNA replication during the S (synthesis) phase did not produce any mutations. MPF is inactivated by kinase phosphorylation and activated by specific phosphatases capable of dephosphorylating this protein. On the other hand, glycosylation is a posttranslational modification where a carbohydrate (i.e., a glycan) is added to a functional group of another molecule. Many proteins undergo glycosylation, thereby playing a critical role in regulating protein function.

Why can the same trna and rrna molecules be used to synthesize a wide variety of polypeptides
Drupady [299]

Answer: The transcription and translation process allows trna and rrna molecules to be used to synthesize wide variety of polypeptides.

Explanation:

DNA molecule is made up of information for coding proteins. This information is passed on the mRNA during a process known as transcription. Transcription is the first of many steps of DNA based gene expression in which a part of the segment of DNA is copied into RNA (especially mRNA) by the enzyme RNA polymerase.

Both DNA and RNA are nucleic acids, which use base pairs of nucleotides as a complementary language. During the process of transcription, a DNA sequence is read by an RNA polymerase, which gives a complementary, antiparallel RNA strand referred to as a primary transcript.

A large diversity among genes is followed by a large amount of various mRNA molecules. However, the ribosomes consist of rRNA, which is included in the process of translation. Translation is the process whereby ribosomes in the cytoplasm or ER synthesize proteins after the process of transcription of DNA to RNA in the cell's nucleus. The overall process is called gene expression.

The smallest of the three types of RNA is tRNA, which has only 75 to 95 nucleotides and has a role in bringing particular amino acids to the growing polypeptide. It can be concluded that mRNA contribute to the diversity of polypeptide molecules due to the fact that it carries an information about their synthesis.
