8 0

Answer:columnar epithelium​

Explanation:

Collecting ducts are readily recognized in the renal medulla, as relatively large tubules lined by cuboidal epithelium, in which the epithelial cells are relatively clear (i.e., not as eosinophilic as proximal and distal tubules) and have distinct cell borders

What is the Mechanical energy when
Scilla [17]

Answer:

ME = 20 * m, where m is the mass of the pendulum

Explanation:

As we know that mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy.

Since the Pendulum at its highest point has zero velocity, its kinetic energy at this point is equal to zero.

Thus, here in this mechanical energy will be equal to the potential energy only.

Potential energy is equal to the product of gravity constant, mass of the body and the height of the pendulum

Thus,

ME = PE\\

PE = m * g* h\\PE = 10 * 2* m\\

PE= 20m

Hence,

ME = 20 * m

How does loseing laforin give you epilepsy ( please use lots of detail in the answer)
Deffense [45]
<span>Lafora disease is the most severe teenage-onset progressive epilepsy, a unique form of glycogenosis with perikaryal accumulation of an abnormal form of glycogen, and a neurodegenerative disorder exhibiting an unusual generalized organellar disintegration. The disease is caused by mutations of the EPM2A gene, which encodes two isoforms of the laforin protein tyrosine phosphatase, having alternate carboxyl termini, one localized in the cytoplasm (endoplasmic reticulum) and the other in the nucleus. To date, all documented disease mutations, including the knockout mouse model deletion, have been in the segment of the protein common to both isoforms. It is therefore not known whether dysfunction of the cytoplasmic, nuclear, or both isoforms leads to the disease. In the present work, we identify six novel mutations, one of which, c.950insT (Q319fs), is the first mutation specific to the cytoplasmic laforin isoform, implicating this isoform in disease pathogenesis. To confirm this mutation's deleterious effect on laforin, we studied the resultant protein's subcellular localization and function and show a drastic reduction in its phosphatase activity, despite maintenance of its location at the endoplasmic reticulum.

Compare and contrast the structures of DNA and RNA
katovenus [111]

DNA contains the sugar deoxyribose, while RNA contains the sugar ribose. The only difference between ribose and deoxyribose is that ribose has one more -OH group than deoxyribose, which has -H attached to the second (2') carbon in the ring. DNA is a double-stranded molecule, while RNA is a single-stranded molecule.
