B press a clean towel or cloth firmly against the cut. you don't want the bleeding to continue and don't want to make the cut worse by putting any liquid in a lab, like acid that could easily be mistaken as water.
The liver is the...................... gland in the body.
Answer: The liver is the<u> largest</u>
gland in the body.
Answer:
Blood clothing is an example of positive feedback.
This type of feedback mechanism is useful to the body because it multiplies the factor that intervenes in clotting accelerating the process.
If a toxin affects the molecules that signal for platelets the feedback will not be effective enough to produce clotting and the body will keep bleeding.
Explanation:
Blood clotting is an example of positive feedback due to the fact that when the vascular endothelium is damaged platelets will go to this area and activate themselves once they are in contact with the collagen fibers of the damaged structure. When the platelets are activated they will release the contents that is stored in their granules. One of the contents is a Gq-linked protein receptor cascade, that will increase the concentration of calcium in the platelets. Calcium activates protein kinase C, which, in turn, activates phospholipase A2 (PLA2). PLA2 will modifies an integrin membrane increasing its affinity to bind fibrinogen. The activated platelets change their shape , and the fibrinogen cross-links with the integrin membrane aiding in the aggregation of adjacent platelets. After this the coagulation cascade takes place. there are two pathways the extrinsic and the extrinsic one.
The extrinsic pathway will be activated due to tissular factor released by the platelets and the intrinsic pathway will be activated due to endothelial collagen. The final product of both pathways is factor x.
Factor x will transform prothrombin into thrombin will activate the conversion of fibrinogen into fibrin. Thrombin will form a net of fibrin that will the clot.
A cascade reaction is useful because every component of the cascade are related making a quick reaction once that one of then is activated and can activate other or more factors.
If a toxin affects the molecules that signals for platelets, platelets will not go to the damaged area and in consequence there will not be thrombin and fibrin to form the clot together with platelets.
Answer:
this mutation may change the open reading frame of the resulting RNA sequence and its final product, which is a protein in the case that this gene is used to synthesize a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence
Explanation:
During the transcription, a region of DNA named 'gene' is used as template to produce an RNA molecule, typically a primary transcript of mRNA (pre-mRNA). Subsequently, this pre-mRNA suffers a process named RNA processing in order to generate a mature mRNA which is finally used to create a protein by a process called translation. If a deletion occurs during transcription, it may change the open reading frame (ORF) of the resulting mRNA when the mutation occurs in an exon of the protein-coding gene (i.e., occurs a frameshift mutation), while this deletion may not have any effect if it is localized within the introns which are removed during RNA processing. A frameshift mutation will change the amino acids that are added to the nascent polypeptide chain during translation.
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above would be the second option. In multicell organisms, cells that work together to perform a certain function form <span>Organs. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.</span>
