<u>Answer</u>: Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder that causes thick mucus secretions.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- <em>Cystic fibrosis</em> is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in a gene that makes a protein called CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator).
- The CFTR protein normally functions as a channel for transport of chloride ions in cells responsible for mucus production.
- A person suffering from cystic fibrosis produces abnormal CFTR protein or no CFTR protein at all.
- This is the reason that thick, sticky mucus is produced instead of the thin, watery kind.
Hello. You forgot to put the image so that this question can be answered, but I will describe what the image shows.
The image shows two types of "cups" that have a type of connection between the two. In cup A there is 1 mole of glucose and 1 mole of fructose. In cup B there is 0.1 mol of glucose and 1.5 mol of fructose.
Answer:
A. Solution A to Solution B
Explanation:
Balance is achieved when the "cup" with the lowest concentration of glucose receives glucose from the "cup" with the highest concentration, to the point that the two glasses establish equal concentrations of glucose between them.
We know that cup B has a lower concentration of glucose, which indicates that the movement of this solute was from cup A towards cup B. With this we can conclude that the letter A is the correct answer.
Transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) is a type of RNA molecule that helps decode a messenger RNA (mRNA) sequence into a protein. tRNAs function at specific sites in the ribosome during translation, which is a process that synthesizes a protein from an mRNA molecule.
