How can a small change to the temperature of ocean water have a big effect on a tropical depression?

Biology
1 answer:
makkiz [27]3 years ago
3 0
Heat waves can be dangerous, causing illnesses such as heat cramps and heat stroke, or even death. Warmer temperatures can also lead to a chain reaction of other changes around the world. That's because increasing air temperature also affects the oceans, weather patterns, snow and ice, and plants and animals.

What happens to an animal cell in a hypertonic solution?
jarptica [38.1K]

<span>The answer is that cell will shrink.</span>

<span>If you put an animal cell in a hypertonic solution means that concentration of the solutes is greater outside the cell, in the solution, than in the cell. Consequently,</span> the water concentration of the cell's cytoplasm is higher than that of the hypertonic solution. Since the aim is to balance water concentration on the inside and outside of the cell, the water will exit the cell. The cell will lose water and, consequently, will shrink in size.

What is Grave's disease?
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Graves´ disease is an autoinmmune disease that is caused when the immune system attacks the cells of the thyroid gland, which leads to an overproduction of the hormones secreted by the thyroid gland. This constant attack and destruction on the part of the immune cells causes the thyroid to increase in size, a condition that is commonly known as hyperthyroidism.

Hyperthyroidism can become a really serious issue because the excessive production of the hormones of the thyroid gland will increase the metabolic activity of all parts of the body and can, if left untreated, cause such serious conditions as blood clotting problems, type 1 diabetes, among others.

Identify the true statements about RNA interference. Duplex RNA (dsRNA) can suppress the expression of a gene. miRNAs are short,
AlekseyPX

Answer:

- Duplex RNA (dsRNA) can suppress the expression of a gene.

- miRNAs are short, single strands approximately 21 nucleotides long.  

- miRNAs suppress gene expression by interfering with transcription.  

- RNA interference can temporarily suppress the expression of a target gene.

Explanation:

The RNA interference (RNAi) mechanism is a naturally occurring biological process by which an organism suppresses gene expression by using sequence-specific small non-coding RNAs that are complementary to RNA (posttranscriptional silencing) or DNA (transcriptional silencing) sequences. Since its discovery, this mechanism has been exploited in molecular biology to control the expression of target genes. There are different classes of non-coding RNAs which are able to trigger RNAi gene silencing: microRNAs (miRNAs), small interfering RNAs (siRNAs), piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs, only present in animals), etc. During their functioning, these non-coding RNAs are loaded into the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) to direct them to target sequences and trigger RNAi (for example, by cleaving target mRNAs). miRNAs are short, evolutionary conserved RNAs, that associate to the RISC complex in order to trigger both transcriptional and posttranscriptional gene silencing. During their biogenesis, small non-coding RNAs are double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), but they lose a strand (the passenger strand) when associate with the RISC complex, conserving only one strand (the guide strand) that bind by complementary base pairing to target sequences (either DNA in the nucleus or RNA in the cytoplasm).

Describe the synthesis and secretion of thyroid hormones,
maria [59]

Answer AND Explanation:

The thyroid gland secretes thyroxine, an iodine-containing hormone. The thyroxine stimulates carbohydrate, protein and lipid metabolism in most organs and tissues of the body. It has a general effect of increasing the metabolic rate. Deficiency of iodine in the diet causes the disease called goitre. This is characterized by an enlargement of the thyroid gland.
