In the above study, the investigators determined that a low concentration of DNP increased the average life span from 719 days (

Control) to 770 days (DNP). If the U.S. population has an average life span of 79 years, then how many years would be added if the same percentage increase were observed?

Answer:

Increase in average life span of U.S. in terms of years is 5.6\\ years

Explanation:

The controlled  average life span is 719\\ days

The DNP  average life span is 770\\ days

Increase in the average life span is

770 - 719\\= 51\\ days

Rate of increase of average life span after using DNP

(Change in life span in day /\\ Base average life span) * 100\\

= \frac{51}{719} * 100\\= 7.09\\ %

It is given that the average life span of US people will also increase by the same rate, then the new average life span would be

Base average life span +\\ Increase in average life span

= 79 + ((\frac{7.09}{100} ) * 79)\\= 84.60\\

So the increase in average life span of U.S. in terms of years is 5.6\\ years

<span>Roughly 5.6 years would be added to the average lifespan of the U.S. population. The test's lifespan increased from 719 to 770, or by 1.071. Multiplying the average lifespan by this amount would equal 84.609.</span>

in mammals, an increase in the temperature of the preoptic area of the hypothalamus activates physiological mechanisms for heat
serious [3.7K]

True. In mammals, an increase in the temperature of the preoptic area of the hypothalamus activates physiological mechanisms for heat dissipation including vasodilation.

<h3>What is vasodilation?</h3>

Vasodilation, as it is known in medicine, occurs when blood vessels in your body open up, enabling more blood to flow through them and resulting in a reduction in blood pressure. Without your knowledge, your body goes through a routine procedure like this. It can also be brought on by the foods and beverages you consume as well as the drugs you take. Vasodilation may also be a sign of a particular illness.

The two of the many functions that your blood serves in the body:

  • Carrying oxygen and nutrients
  • Aiding in temperature regulation in your body.

Your body's blood arteries are more complex than simple tubes that remain constant in size. Your blood arteries include muscle as well, and that muscle regulates how wide or narrow they are at any particular time. Vasodilation occurs when blood vessels enlarge. Vasoconstriction is the opposite process, which occurs when blood vessels narrow and contract.

Union of haploid and diploid gamete results in a zygote that is
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Triploid

Explanation:

The process whereby gametes produced by different sexes of the same species of organism come together is called FERTILIZATION. A gamete is said to be HAPLOID (n) if it contains one set of chromosomes while it is DIPLOID (2n) if it contains two sets of chromosomes.

Hence, if an haploid (n) and diploid (2n) gamete unites, a zygote that is TRIPLOID (3n) emerges or forms. A triploid zygote will have three sets of chromosomes i.e. n + 2n = 3n.

Which of the following statements best describes what happens when a bacterial cell is placed in a solution containing 5 percent
lora16 [44]

Answer:

C) Water will move out of the cell.

Explanation:

In microbial growth experiments, when a bacterium is placed in a Petri dish with a solution that contains dissolved salt (NaCl) - a hypertonic solution -, the result will lead to the <u>dehydration and shrinking of the bacterial cell</u>.

This condition will eventually cause the rupture of the cell, resulting in the diffuse of H20 molecules from the plasma membrane, that is, the water moving out of the cell.
