Why the pulmonary arteries have light violet blood?

Biology

Answer:

The blood in the pulmonary artery is going to the heart to collect oxygen, and therefore has a low content of oxygen. So, the blood in the pulmonary artery is a violet colour because it has low oxygen. The blood in the pulmonary vein is oxygen rich, and so it gives a scarlet color.

Kay [80]

Answer:

1. Part A: No

2. Part B: Yes

3: Part C : Yes

4: Part D : No

Explanation:

1) Part A: Facilitated diffusion of glucose into a muscle cell:

No; sodium ion co - transport is required for active transport of glucose but not for facilitated diffusion of glucose

2) Part B: Active transport of dietary phenylalanine across the intestinal mucosa:

Yes; co - transport of sodium ions drives the inward movement of amino acids and can only occur if sodium ions are actively pumped back out again.

3) Part C: Uptake of potassium ions by red blood cells:

Yes; uptake of potassium ions can occur only via a pump that couples the inward pumping of potassium ions to the outward pumping of sodium ions.

4) Part D: Active uptake of lactose by the bacteria in your intestine

No; active uptake of sugars and amino acids in bacteria is driven by a proton gradient.

Considering the same population of cats as in Part A, what is the expected frequency of each genotype (TLTL, TLTS, TSTS ) based

zaharov [31]

Answer:

P = f(TLTL) = 0,16

H = f(TLTS) = 0,48

Q = f(TSTS) = 0,36

Explanation:

Hello!

The allele proportion of any locus defines the genetic constitution of a population. Its sum is 1 and its values can vary between 0 (absent allele) and 1 (fixed allele).

The calculation of allelic frequencies of a population is made taking into account that homozygotes have two identical alleles and heterozygotes have two different alleles.

In this case, let's say:

f(TL) = p

f(TS) = q

p + q = 1

Considering the genotypes TLTL, TLTS, TSTS, and the allele frequencies:

TL= 0,4

TS= 0,6

Genotypic frequency is the relative proportion of genotypes in a population for the locus in question, that is, the number of times the genotype appears in a population.

P = f(TLTL)

H = f(TLTS)

Q = f(TSTS)

Also P + H + Q = 1

And using the equation for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the genotypic frequencies of equilibrium are given by the development of the binomial:

$p^{2} = f(TLTL)$

$2pq = f(TSTL)$

$q^{2} = f(TSTS)$

So, if the population is in balance:

$P = p^{2}$

$H = 2pq$

$Q = q^{2}$

Replacing the given values of allele frecuencies in each equiation you can calculate the expected frequency of each genotype for the next generation as:

$f(TLTL) = P = p^{2} = 0,4^{2} = 0,16$

$f(TLTS) = H = 2pq = 2*0,4*0,6 = 0,48$

$f(TSTS) = Q = q^{2} = 0,6^{2} = 0,36$

I hope you have a SUPER day!

Can my dog go outside after being neutered

aleksandrvk [35]

Yes he can.
If he was just neutered today:
Leash walks only so he can urinate and defecate. If he runs around he risks breaking sutures/glue.
If he was neutered a few days ago:
Also leash walks only until sutures fully healed
Remember to keep the e-collar on!

VladimirAG [237]

i believe that the cell will expand because there is less sugar in the water. if you were to add more sugar into the water, then the cell will shrink in size because sugar and salt is the same thing if you add it in water.
