The answer is "PET scan" or "PET-CT".
PET scan or positron emission tomography uses the technology behind conventional CT scans but performs to quantify the function in specific parts of organs (i.e. brain). The patient will be given a positron emitting substance most commonly fluorodeoxyglucose or FDG via intravenous injection. After which, the patient will go to the PET machine and the PET machine will measure the positron emitted throughout the body. Positron is well correlated to the function of a specific part of an organ.
Mitochondria are the power plants of the cells.
Answer:
4. The correct pathway for the flow of electron during photosynthesis is mentioned in option D.
> <em>NADP </em>> <em>Calvin cycle.</em>
- Electron is first provided to the photo-system II by the phtolysis of water.
- Then it is passed to photo-system I with the help of plastoquinone (PQ) and cytochrome
. - Finally, electron from the photo-system II is used to reduce NADP to NADPH.
- NADPH and ATP are used in light independent phase or Calvin cycle to synthesize carbohydrate from carbon dioxide.
5. The correct answer is B.) photosynthesis.
- Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants synthesize glucose or carbohydrate from carbon dioxide and water in presence of sunlight and chlorophyll.
- In light independent phase of photosynthesis, it requires ATP and NADPH in order to synthesize food.
- Lastly, oxidation or breaking down of glucose releases energy and photosynthesis is a anabolic process instead of catabolic one.
Answer:
Down syndrome occurs when the nondisjunction occurs with Chromosome 21. Meiosis is a special type of cell division used to produce our sperm and egg cells.
