Answer:

The main role of carbonic anhydrase in humans is to catalyze the conversion of carbon dioxide to carbonic acid and back again. However, it can also help with CO2 transport in the blood which in turn helps respiration. It can even function in the formation of hydrochloric acid by the stomach.

maxonik [38]

Answer:  Insulin is a hormone, which is secreted by the pancreas to regulate the sugar levels in the bloodstream.

Explanation:

Insulin is a protein hormone if take orally, will get digested in the digestive tract, it will not be able to affect the target site of action.

Insulin gets denatured in the digestive tract. Thus it will not be able to control the blood sugar levels.

Nancy has taken the insulin dose orally, the insulin will get denatured in the digestive system, it will not function and Nancy will remain hyperglycemic after the consumption.

Speculate as to how the information obtained from the sequencing of the human genome might be used to someday eliminate inborn e
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sequencing the human genome is the function of the human genome project with the goal of determining the base pairs/order of DNA nucleotides that make up human genome, and also identifying and mapping all of the genes of the human genome both from the physical level and its functions in molecular medicine. The benefits in this field could allow for better diagnosis of disease, early detection of certain diseases, and gene therapy and control systems for drugs.

Inborn errors of metabolism are rare genetic (inherited) disorders where the body cannot properly digest and turn food into energy through the normal pathway. The disorders are usually caused by mutations in specific enzymes that help in the break down of these foods.

Through the study of the human genome, sequences involved in these mutations giving rise to these disorders are identified and mapped to their variuos locations. This can help in the early diagnosis of the disorders and effective control system for drugs and gene therapy against these disorders.

The smallest unit of biological structure that meets the functional requirements of "living" is the ______.
shutvik [7]

Answer;

-Cell

Explanation;

-The cell is the smallest structural and functional unit of living organisms, which can exist on its own. Therefore, it is sometimes called the building block of life. Cells make up the smallest level of a living organism such as human beings and other living things.

-The cellular level of an organism is where the metabolic processes occur that keep the organism alive. That is why the cell is called the fundamental unit of life. Some organisms, such as bacteria or yeast, are unicellular; consisting only of a single cell, while others, for instance, mammalians, are multicellular.

In pea plants, flowers are either white or purple; the purple color is produced by pigments called anthocyanins. The production
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

7/16

Explanation:

<em>The proportion of the offspring from the cross that will have white flowers is 7/16.</em>

The presence of anthocyanin which determines purple coloration is conditioned by the C_ and P_ alleles. It means that the absence of one or both of C and P will result in white flowers.

Two plants, each with CcPp are crossed:

CcPp   x   CcPp

Offpring

1 CCPP - purple

2 CCPp - purple

2 CcPP - purple

4 CcPp - purple

2 Ccpp - white

1 CCpp - white

1 ccPP -  white

2 ccPp - white

1 ccpp -  white

Proportion of offspring with white flowers = 7/16

Proportion of offspring with purple flower = 9/16

<em>See the attached image for the Punnet's square analysis of the cross.</em>
