The answer is: B) silkworms.
“While sitting in her garden she deduced the secret of silk by watching the silkworms. She developed the process to remove the thread from the cocoon and set up silk cultivation farms and the weaving of the new cloth.” (Source: http://4kyws.ua.edu/SI_LING_CHI.html)
Answer:
Yeah, so basically the image is showing restriction enzymes. The job of restriction enzymes is mainly involved in research when scientists use them for cloning human genes. But that's besides the point...
Main thing you have to understand is that restriction enzymes cut at very specific places along DNA sequences. If you look at the restriction enzyme Rsa 1, you can notice that it cuts only between a thymine nucleotide base and an adenine nucleotide base. Next, if ya look at Sty 1 (be careful b/c W can represent adenine or thymine), it cuts only between two directly adjacent cytosine nucleotide bases!
SO.... if we go to Rsa 1, we can find the answers by dividing up the sequences between the pattern we saw in the gray box. It only cuts between adenine and thymine bases. Based on that, we can find the number of fragments created, and the segment lengths (basically just like how many nucleotide bases are in each strand). Hope ya found this helpful!
Answer:
Trichomoniasis
Explanation:
Trichomoniasis is an sexually transmitted disease that affects around 30% of world population. The common symptoms are frequent urge to urinate, vaginal bleeding, burning sensation during urination.
The causative agent of trichomoniasis is a protozoa called <em>Trichomonas vaginalis</em>. This protozoan can be transfer through the genital contact. The protozoa can easily be transfer from affected individual to the healthy individual.
Thus, the correct answer is option (3).
This is an example of negative feedback.
After a big meal, glucose levels in the bloodstream increases. The body recognises this change and goes through homeostasis, or the regulation of bodily state or internal environment.
The pancreas secretes insulin, which then binds to insulin receptors. This will result in the uptake of excess glucose from the bloodstream into cells and converted into glycogen to be stored in cells as energy storage molecules.
Since there is the counter effect of body (i.e. when blood-glucose concentration increases, the body sends a signal to decrease the blood-glucose concentration, this is called a negative feedback (instead of a positive feedback, which occurs if for e.g. the body signals cells to increase blood-glucose concentration even after blood-glucose concentration increased after a heavy meal).
Hope this helps! :)
