Biology

galina1969 [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

B. Nitrogenous bases in each "parent" strand serve as a template for the new strand to be made

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process whereby the contents of DNA is doubled or duplicated. In other words, another copy of DNA is produced from one DNA molecule. The process follows the semi-conservative model, which generally speaks of how one template strand is used to synthesize another new strand.

In the semi-conservative model of DNA replication, the double strand of DNA is unwind and one of the strands called parent strand is used synthesize a complementary strand of DNA. At the end of the process, two DNA molecules results with each having one old strand and one new strand. Nitrogenous bases or nucleotides in each "parent" strand" serve as a template for the new strand to be made.

Which surface of an epithelial cell lies closest to its blood supply
Anettt [7]

Answer: The surface of an epithelial cell which lies closest to its blood supply is called as the Basal surface.

Epithelial cell is primarily composed of two surface-

1) Apical surface- It is exposed to the environment and lies towards the lumen or internal organ cavity.  

2) Basal/ Basolateral surface- It is not exposed to the environment. It lies interiorly and attached to the basement membrane via integrin.

Epithelial cells do not have own blood supply. For obtaining nutrients, they are dependent on the blood capillaries which are present in the nearby tissues. For accomplishing this, the basal surface of epithelial cell plays an essential role. The nutrients from blood enters basal surface via basement membrane which is a selectively permeable membrane.

Thus, basal surface of epithelial cells lies closest to the blood supply.

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: Adrenaline, also known as epinephrine, is a hormone and medication. Adrenaline is normally produced by both the adrenal glands and a small number of neurons in the medulla oblongata, where it acts as a neurotransmitter involved in regulating visceral functions (e.g., respiration).It plays an important role in the fight-or-flight response by increasing blood flow to muscles, output of the heart, pupil dilation response and blood sugar level. It does this by binding to alpha and beta receptors.[

Since hemoglobin is attracted more to carbon monoxide than it is to oxygen, what is likely to happen to a person if he breathes
vodomira [7]
C. He could suffocate from lack of oxygen in his blood.

Given the statement that hemoglobin (used to transport oxygen throughout our body) is more attracted to carbon monoxide, it is highly likely that most, if not all, the hemoglobin in a human body will be bound to carbon monoxide instead of oxygen when a person inhales too much carbon monoxide. This results in a lack of hemoglobin carrying oxygen to the cells of the body. Oxygen deficiency occurs.
