Explain why the populations of great apes in Africa are declining.

Biology
1 answer:
weqwewe [10]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The number of gorillas and chimpanzees in Central Africa continues to decline due to hunting, habitat loss, and disease, combined with a widespread lack of law enforcement and corruption in the judicial process, according to a new conservation plan by IUCN, the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), WWF, and partners.

While mRNA strands are being created a sequence is sometimes miscopied. What is the best possible outcome, the worst possible ou
Andrew [12]
The best and worst possible outcome and the long-term effect on the cell if mRNA strands were miscopied is that the cell will not make functional proteins from that mRNA strand. The best and at the same time worst possible outcome is that the cell will not make functional proteins from the mRNA strand.<span>

How has the use of pcr improved modern dna forensic science?
mestny [16]
PCR (polymerase chain reaction) is a relatively new advance (1980's) but it has a great impact in our lives. Specifically, in forensic science, PCR is useful in many sorts of crimes . Up until the PCR method, in order to identify a person forensic scientists would use fingerprints or some other ambiguous methods like teeth marks etc. But now, with PCR, we can compare the genetic material found on a crime scene and compare it with a suspect's genetic material, definitively concluding whether they are the same person or not. The way this works is that we collect a sample from the crime scene with DNA and then PCR amplifies the quantity of DNA in that sample. One of the apparent advantages of this method is that PCR works with even a very small sample, often not even a single cell is required. This makes crime scenes full of information. Hence, succinctly, PCR has helped modern forensic science in that:
1) its results are more definitve than traditional identification methods and subject to less ambiguity
2) it is relatively fast
3) new pieces of evidence can be of value (like some hair cells) and identify the crominal in cases that in older times would be impossible to solve.

The ATP yield for a molecule depends on where it enters glycolysis or the citric acid cycle. The yield can be compared to the ne
Andru [333]

Answer:

a) The net ATP yield from fructose 1,6‑bisphosphate is 32 ATP

b) The net ATP yield from galactose is 30 ATP

c) The net ATP yield from dihydroxyacetone phosphate is 16 ATP

d) The net ATP yield from pyruvate is 12.5 ATP

e) The net ATP yield from lactate is 14 ATP

f) The net ATP yield from phosphoenolpyruvate is 13.5 ATP

Explanation:

a) In this case, 2 ATP molecules are not used for the phosphorylation of glucose for the production of fructose bisphosphate 1.6, thus, the net ATP yield is 32 ATP.

b) Galactose is converted to glucose-1-phosphate through reactions that lead to phosphorylation. Glucose-1-phosphate is transformed into glucose-6-phosphate by the enzyme phosphoglucomutase. Later it is used in glycolysis, thus, the net ATP yield is 30 ATP.

c) The fructose 1,6 bisphosphate is decomposed in glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate. Dihydroxyacetone phosphate is isomerized to glyceraldehyde -3-phosphate. ATP performance is (2.5+2.5+11) = 16 ATP

d) Pyruvate is decarboxylated oxidatively to produce acetyl-CoA. ATP yields are:

Glycolysis = 0

Oxidative decarboxylation = 2.5 ATP

TCA cycle = 10 ATP

The net yield is 2.5 + 10 = 12.5 ATP

e) Lactate is oxidized to pyruvate by the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase with a reduction of NAD. Pyruvate is brought into the mitochondria, where it is decarboxylated oxidatively to produce acetyl-CoA. If 1.5 ATP is assumed for cytosolic NADH, therefore 1.5 is produced. So, the net yield is: 12.5 + 1.5 = 14

f) Phosphoenolpyruvate is converted to pyruvate by ATP production through phosphorylation. ATP yield is as follows:

Glycolysis = 1

Oxidative decarboxylation = 2.5 ATP

TCA cycle = 10 ATP

The net yield is 1 + 2.5 + 10 = 13.5 ATP

Explain the role that the skeletal system plays in facilitating cardiovascular system function
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Skeletal system provide strength and protection to heart and also produces essential blood cells such as RBC and WBC

Explanation:

All organ systems in our body work in co-ordination with each other. Skeletal system comprised of bones and cartilages while cardiovascular system comprises of hearts, blood and blood vessels. Firstly the skeletal system protects the heart and also assists in its pumping along with muscle. Secondly, the blood cells such as RBC and WBC are circulated by the blood throughout the body. However these cells are produced in the bone marrow (inside the bones)
