The Waldorf family was caught in a fire but escaped. Unfortunately, the father and daughter suffered burns. The father had secon

d-degree burns on his entire chest, abdomen, and both arms, and third-degree burns on his entire left lower extremity. The daughter suffered first-degree burns on her whole head and neck and second-degree burns throughout both lower extremities.
a. What percentage of the father's body was covered by burns?
b. What percentage of the daughter's body received first-degree burns?
c. What part of the daughter's body has both the dermis and epidermis involved?
d. The father experiences a good deal of pain in the area of the chest and abdomen, but little pain in the leg. Why?

Answer and Explanation:

The father had 54% of the body covered by burns, since a little more than half of his body was burned. In addition, to calculate the percentage of body burn, the following values are considered: head, arms and legs - 9% torso front - 18% torso back - 18%. In addition, the father feels little pain in his legs (which had worse burns) because the third degree burn destroys the nerve endings, while the second degree burn only damages these endings promoting intense pain.

The daughter had 9% of her body burned by first degree burns, which corresponds to her lower limbs. These burns involve the skin and the epidermis, for this reason, we can say that the legs are the part of the daughter's body that has compromised hair and epidermis.

Pancreatic cells, which secrete a large amount of digestive enzymes, are labeled with radioactive leucine and then chased for se
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Option-C

Explanation:

A pulse-chase experiment which is used to study the cellular process taking place in the cells. This uses the labelled molecule which is incorporated into the cellular pathway and then the unlabeled molecules are used over time to determine how much time is required by the unlabeled molecule to replace the labelled molecule.

In the given question, the pancreatic cell which secretes the digestive enzyme known as the acinar cell is labelled with the leucine and then used unlabeled leucine.

When observed after three hours, the black spots will appear on the exterior of the cell as the protein has been synthesised by the ER and now has been secreted from the cell.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.

The dna content for an organism is analyzed. The results showed that 21% of the nucleotides contained the nitrogenous base adeni
Serjik [45]

If the results show that 21% of the nucleotides contain adenine, then the cytosine fraction in vivo is 29% and the thymine fraction is also 21% (options A and C).

<h3>Define double helix model of DNA?</h3>
  1. DNA is a double helix molecule made up of two long strands of nucleotides.
  2. There are four types of nucleotides in DNA, each containing a different nitrogenous base: adenine, guanine, thymine, cytosine.
  3. Adenine always pairs with thymine and guanine pairs with cytosine, according to the base-pairing rules.
  4. As a result, the percentage of adenine equals the percentage of thymine, and the remaining percentage equals guanine + cytosine (29 + 29 = 58 >> 58 + 21 + 21 = 100).
  5. Therefore, if the results show that 21% of the nucleotides contain adenine, then the percentage of cytosine in vivo is 29% and the percentage of thymine is also 21%
