Answer: c. they decrease the incidence of cholesterol deposition in arterial walls.
Explanation:
The statin is a drug which block the action of the liver enzyme which controls the production of the cholesterol. The cholesterol is a biomolecule which aggregate inside the blood vessels such as arteries may lead to arteriosclerosis. This condition will lead to increase in blood pressure which may lead to the condition of hypertension or heart attack.
By lowering the levels of the cholesterol in the arteries the statins can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.
Answer: False
Explanation: Just took the test!
Answer:
Here is the complete question
The initiation of transcription requires melting of the DNA double helix, i.e. separating hydrogen-bonded base pairs, immediately upstream of the +1 site. In E. coli this melting is accomplished by ___________.
-DNA helicase unwinding the double helix around the +1 site.
-DnaA:ATP complexes binding to and twisting the double helix at the +1 site.
-RNA polymerase obtaining the energy to cause separation of strands from ATP hydrolysis.
-binding of the DNA complexes to the double helix at the +1 site and twisting of the double helix.
-bases at the promoter region flipping outward from the double helix into pockets on the polymerase.
And the answer is.....
bases at the promoter region flipping outward from the double helix into pockets on the polymerase.
Answer:
B) Nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning
Explanation:
Nitrogen cycle is the natural process in which atmospheric nitrogen is converted into nitrite and nitrate with the help of bacteria.
Nitrogen cycle is directly dependent on nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning.
As bacteria are responsible for most of the chemical conversion in the nitrogen cycle such as nitrogen fixation (first step) is done by soil bacteria (Cyanobacteria) that form ammonia, which is toxic to plants; nitrification in which ammonia is converted into nitrites and nitrates with the help of Nitrobacter and denitrification bacteria involve Pseudomonas, and Achromobacter which convert nitrite and nitrate into nitrogen.
The lightning breaks nitrogen molecules and allow it to combine with oxygen in atmosphere which further dissolve in rain and form nitrates.
Hence, the nitrogen cycle is most directly dependent upon nitrogen-fixing bacteria and lightning and the correct option is B.
A transverse section cut is a cross section took by slicing, really or through imaging techniques, the body or any part of the body structure, in a horizontal plane, a plane that crosses the longitudinal axis at a right angle. In other words, it divides the body into superior and inferior parts which is also known as the top and bottom parts.
