Answer:

This question lacks options, the options are;

A. parietal layer.

B. serous membrane.

C. nuclear membrane.

D. mucous membrane.

The answer is B

Explanation:

The serous membrane is a covering membrane found in living systems. The serous membrane covers the surfaces of certain structures in the body such as heart, lungs etc. where they secrete lubricants that reduce friction during movement.

The structure of the serous membrane is composed of a sheet of simple squamous epithelial cells (secretes the lubricants) that folds onto itself to form a double layer. The layers are joined by a connective tissue.

After drinking a great deal of coffee (pH 5), a human's blood buffering system would need to ________ as the coffee was digested
spayn [35]

Answer:

Hydrogen ion(H+)

Explanation

The human blood has carbonic acid and bicarbonate anion as buffer to maintain the blood pH between 7.35 and 7.45. A virtual value higher than 7.8 and 6.8 can lead to death.

Taking coffee which has a low pH will lower the pH of the blood. In order to raise the pH back to normal and lower the level of acid present in the system. The human buffering system will to take up Hydrogen ion.

quizlet chromosomes are composed of: please choose the correct answer from the following choices, and then select the submit ans
Anna11 [10]

Chromosomes are composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) mole

There are mainly two molecules that function as genetic material in living organisms.

These are ribonucleic acid(RNA) and deoxyribonucleic acid(DNA).

The organisms having DNA as genetic material require packaging of DNA as it is a long polymer of deoxyribonucleotides.

In the case of human beings, the length of DNA in a cell is approximately 2.2 meters which is very large as compared to the size of the nucleus( approximately 10^-6 meters).

So, the DNA has to be made compact for it to be present inside the nucleus of a cell.

Therefore, the DNA present inside the nucleus of a cell undergoes coiling and compaction through several stages before finally becoming a chromosome, which is shown in the adjoining diagram.

Thus, chromosomes are composed of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) molecules.

Which molecule is active during the last step of DNA replication?
stepan [7]

Correct answer: Option D- DNA ligase

Explanation: In option A, thymine is a nucleotide, so it is present throughout the replication process, wherever it is required. It is added to the newly formed DNA. In option B, Helicase enzyme is active during initiation and elongation stage, as it facilitates the opening of the winded DNA strands. Option C is nucleotidase and it has no role in DNA replication. So, the correct answer is DNA ligase, which is option D.

The okazaki fragments formed during DNA replication are sealed at the end. And in this step, DNA ligase is used. It catalyzes the formation of phosphodiester bond between the nucleotides of okazaki fragments. So it is the last active molecule of the process.
