What change to the following molecule's structure would result in a saturated fat?

Biology
1 answer:
NemiM [27]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

It needs to gain a Hydrogen atom to eliminate the double bond between the two carbons.  

Explanation:

Unsaturated fat has one or more double bonds in its molecule. Saturated fat has a single bond. If you want an unsaturated fat to become saturated it needs to gain more more hydrogen atoms which will eliminate the double bonds between carbons of the unsaturated fat.

Hope this helped :)

List the four types stem cells, give an example of each type, and explain how much each type can differentiate.

(Sorry for the long answer lol but hopefully this helps)

Embryonic stem cells

Embryonic stem cells are obtained from the inner cell mass of the blastocyst, a mainly hollow ball of cells that, in the human, forms three to five days after an egg cell is fertilized by a sperm. A human blastocyst is about the size of the dot above this “i.”

In normal development, the cells inside the inner cell mass will give rise to the more specialized cells that give rise to the entire body—all of our tissues and organs. However, when scientists extract the inner cell mass and grow these cells in special laboratory conditions, they retain the properties of embryonic stem cells.

Embryonic stem cells are pluripotent, meaning they can give rise to every cell type in the fully formed body, but not the placenta and umbilical cord. These cells are incredibly valuable because they provide a renewable resource for studying normal development and disease, and for testing drugs and other therapies. Human embryonic stem cells have been derived primarily from blastocysts created by in vitro fertilization (IVF) for assisted reproduction that were no longer needed.
Tissue-specific stem cells

Tissue-specific stem cells (also referred to as somatic or adult stem cells) are more specialized than embryonic stem cells. Typically, these stem cells can generate different cell types for the specific tissue or organ in which they live.

For example, blood-forming (or hematopoietic) stem cells in the bone marrow can give rise to red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets. However, blood-forming stem cells don’t generate liver or lung or brain cells, and stem cells in other tissues and organs don’t generate red or white blood cells or platelets.

Some tissues and organs within your body contain small caches of tissue-specific stem cells whose job it is to replace cells from that tissue that are lost in normal day-to-day living or in injury, such as those in your skin, blood, and the lining of your gut.

Tissue-specific stem cells can be difficult to find in the human body, and they don’t seem to self-renew in culture as easily as embryonic stem cells do. However, study of these cells has increased our general knowledge about normal development, what changes in aging, and what happens with injury and disease.
MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS:
You may hear the term “mesenchymal stem cell” or MSC to refer to cells isolated from stroma, the connective tissue that surrounds other tissues and organs. Cells by this name are more accurately called “stromal cells” by many scientists. The first MSCs were discovered in the bone marrow and were shown to be capable of making bone, cartilage and fat cells. Since then, they have been grown from other tissues, such as fat and cord blood. Various MSCs are thought to have stem cell, and even immunomodulatory, properties and are being tested as treatments for a great many disorders, but there is little evidence to date that they are beneficial. Scientists do not fully understand whether these cells are actually stem cells or what types of cells they are capable of generating. They do agree that not all MSCs are the same, and that their characteristics depend on where in the body they come from and how they are isolated and grown.
Induced pluripotent stem cells

Induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are cells that have been engineered in the lab by converting tissue-specific cells, such as skin cells, into cells that behave like embryonic stem cells. IPS cells are critical tools to help scientists learn more about normal development and disease onset and progression, and they are also useful for developing and testing new drugs and therapies.

While iPS cells share many of the same characteristics of embryonic stem cells, including the ability to give rise to all the cell types in the body, they aren’t exactly the same. Scientists are exploring what these differences are and what they mean. For one thing, the first iPS cells were produced by using viruses to insert extra copies of genes into tissue-specific cells. Researchers are experimenting with many alternative ways to create iPS cells so that they can ultimately be used as a source of cells or tissues for medical treatments.

Which of the following health care professionals would be best able to transition to a private practice?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

D

Explanation: Because a nurse doesn't have credentials like going to medical school nor residency, so nurse doesn't sound right. A health care admin is someone who doesn't really have any experience to having a private practice. Mind you, health care admin is like a manager type job, that's it, they are not practicing anything. and B is just no.

You accidentally streaked E. coli onto a plate you were supposed to streak D. radiodurans. You have no extra plates and decide t
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Explanation:

The plate were supposed to streak by D. radiodurans but unfortunately it was streaked by E.coli.

As there is no other petri plate available, this plate was exposed to the UV for the 30 minutes. The plate was not left uncovered and because of that the total E.coli could not die and another streak of D. radiodurans was done on the same plate.

As a result of incubation there will be growth of both of the organism in the petri dish.

Which statement is true of an object in equilibrium?
DanielleElmas [232]
C. The sum of all forces on an object in equilibrium is zero. Equilibrium means in a stationary position. Therefore there is no acceleration. And using Newton's second law, we can say that the net or resultant force is 0. F = ma =>F = m(0) =>F= 0
