Answer:
Nitrogen is converted from atmospheric nitrogen (N2) into usable forms, such as NO2-, in a process known as fixation. ... This occurs in two steps: first, bacteria convert ammonia in to (nitrites) NO2-, and then other bacteria species convert it to NO3- (nitrate). Nitriates are a form of nitrogen that is usable by plants.
Explanation:
Answer:
A. produce larger materials from the collision of smaller materials
Explanation:
The outcome of nuclear fusion reaction is that it produces larger materials from the collision of smaller materials.
- Nuclear fusion is the combination of small atomic nuclei into larger ones with the release of a large amount of energy.
- The energy released provides the needed temperature for another set of atoms to fuse.
- This process in turn yields a bulkier material accompanied with the release of a lot of energy.
Correct answer: Adequate intake
It is a recommended intake value that given based on experimentally determined approximation or the estimates of the nutrients intake by a group of healthy people.
It becomes an important guide in the absence of enough scientific evidence in order to establish an estimated average requirement. Adequate intake of a nutrient is determined after a lot of observation and research.
Hence, the correct answer would be Adequate intake.
Answer:
Explanation:
Molecular biology has enabled the identification of the mechanisms whereby inactive myostatin increases skeletal muscle growth in double-muscled (DM) animals. Myostatin is a secreted growth differentiation factor belonging to the transforming growth factor-β superfamily. Mutations make the myostatin gene inactive, resulting in muscle hypertrophy. The relationship between the different characteristics of DM cattle are defined with possible consequences for livestock husbandry. The extremely high carcass yield of DM animals coincides with a reduction in the size of most vital organs. As a consequence, DM animals may be more susceptible to respiratory disease, urolithiasis, lameness, nutritional stress, heat stress and dystocia, resulting in a lower robustness. Their feed intake capacity is reduced, necessitating a diet with a greater nutrient density. The modified myofiber type is responsible for a lower capillary density, and it induces a more glycolytic metabolism. There are associated changes for the living animal and post-mortem metabolism alterations, requiring appropriate slaughter conditions to maintain a high meat quality. Intramuscular fat content is low, and it is characterized by more unsaturated fatty acids, providing healthier meat for the consumer. It may not always be easy to find a balance between the different disciplines underlying the livestock husbandry of DM animals to realize a good performance and health and meat quality.
Cells are the basic unit of life and they are the 1st level of organization. The heart is the 3rd level. They are separated by 1 level, tissues.
