Answer:

In humans, blood pressure is usually measured indirectly with a special cuff over the brachial artery (in the arm) or the femoral artery (in the leg). There are two pressures measured: (1) the systolic pressure (the higher pressure and the first number recorded), which is the force that blood exerts on the artery walls as the heart contracts to pump the blood to the peripheral organs and tissues, and (2) the diastolic pressure (the lower pressure and the second number recorded), which is residual pressure exerted on the arteries as the heart relaxes between beats. In healthy individuals, systolic pressure is normally between 90 and 120 millimetres of mercury (mmHg).

Using Chargaff's Rules, which of the following satements about genomic base content is TRUE?

Ket [755]

Answer:

The correct answer is option b. "Malnutrition has no significant effect on the genomic base pair content of a person's muscles".

Explanation:

Chargaff's Rules state that the content of nucleotides in the cells have a 1:1 ratio of pyrimidine and purine bases and the composition of DNA varies from one species to another but not within the same specie. Therefore according to Chargaff's Rules malnutrition has no significant effect on the genomic base pair content of a person's muscles, since no variation of the genomic base pair content should occur within the same person or specie.

What type of RNA comes together with proteins to form ribosomes and then becomes the site of translation?

Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) associates with a set of proteins to form ribosomes. These complex structures, which physically move along an mRNA molecule, catalyze the assembly of amino acids into protein chains.
