Answer:

Atherosclerosis affects arteries, these blood vessels are elastic and flexible in order to allow good blood circulation

Explanation:

The blood vessels are classified into three types: arteries, veins, and capillaries. An artery is a muscular blood vessel that is able to carry blood away from the heart to different parts of the body. Healthy arteries need to be elastic and flexible in order to adjust their diameter and thus control blood flow by maintaining blood pressure. Arteriosclerosis is a chronic disease caused by the accumulation of fatty substances (especially cholesterol) in the artery walls, thereby difficulting blood circulation by thickening and hardening these walls.

Suppose that a dominant allele (P) codes for a polka-dot tail and a recessive allele (p) codes for a solid colored tail. If two
andrew11 [14]
The correct answer is B. The parents are heterozygous with polka-dot tails, so they both have Pp genotype. The combination of their genotypes (Pp x Pp) could produce 4 genotypes PP, Pp, Pp and pp. Therefore, there is 25% chance for a PP genotype, 25% for a pp genotype and 50% for a Pp genotype. The PP and Pp genotypes produce a polka-dot tail phenotype and the pp genotype produces a solid coloured tail phenotype. In conclusion, there is 75% chance for a polka-dot tail (25% for a PP + 50% for a Pp) and a 25% for a solid coloured tail phenotype (25% for a pp).

Ksenya-84 [330]

If a plant cell had a mutation such that the cyclic electron flow is observed at a much higher rate, which photosystem is most likely mutated such that energy is absorbed at a lower rate?

PSI

PSII

Answer:

PSII

Explanation:

Non-cyclic phosphorylation involves both PSI and PSII. The process starts with the splitting of water and excitation of electrons of the reaction center of PSII upon the absorption of solar energy at the wavelength of 680 nm. Any mutation in PSII would not allow the non-cyclic phosphorylation to occur when only cyclic phosphorylation would occur. The process of cyclic phosphorylation includes only PS I. Its reaction center absorbs maximum light at 700 nm and is cycled back while supporting ATP synthesis. Therefore, if a plant performs cyclic phosphorylation at a higher rate and absorbs less energy, this means that mutation was in PSII.
