Answer: False.

Meat is a good source of protein. There are nine essential amino acids which are required under special conditions like illness.

These are- Histidine, Leucine, Isoleucine, Valine, Threonine, Methionine, Lysine, Phenylalanine and Tryptophan. They cannot be synthesized by the body and therefore need to be taken from external protein sources.

Since meat contains all the essential amino acids, therefore it is considered as a good source of protein. Hence, the given statement is false.

Maru [420]

Unlike endocrine glands, exocrine gland RELEASE SECRETIONS OUTSIDE OF THE BODY.

There are two types of glands in the body, the endocrine and the exocrine glands. The endocrine glands are ductless glands and their secretions are normally released directly into the blood stream. The exocrine glands on the other hand have ducts, through which their secretions are release outside the body. An example of this is the sweat gland.

If there is complete linkage with genes Ss (for smooth or wrinkled seeds) and Gg (for green or yellow seeds), what phenotypes wo

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Smooth and green seeds

Smooth and yellow seeds

Wrinkled and green seeds

Wrinkled and yellow seeds

Explanation:

This is a typical dihybrid cross involving two linked genes; one gene coding for seed texture and the other for seed colour. The allele for Smooth seed (S) is dominant over the allele for Wrinkled seed (s) in the first gene while the allele for green seed (G) is dominant over the allele for yellow seed (g) in the second gene.

The cross is between a heterozygous smooth, green plant and a homozygous recessive wrinkled, yellow plant

According to the law of independent assortment, each parent will undergo meiosis to produce the following gamtes with genotypes:

SsGg: SG, Sg, sG, sg

ssgg: sg, sg, sg, sg

Using a punnet square to perform a cross between these gametes ( check attached image), a total of 16 offsprings with four different phenotypes will be expected. The phenotypes are as follows:

SsGg: Smooth and green offsprings (4)

Ssgg: Smooth and yellow offsprings (4)

ssGg: Wrinkled and green offsprings (4)

ssgg: wrinkled and yellow offsprings (4)

Insulin is synthesized in the form of a precursor proteinthat requires cleavage of two different peptide segmentsbefore the matu

IgorC [24]

Answer:

C.Mature secretory vesicles

Explanation:

Hello!

Insulin is synthesized in pancreatic ß-cells. It is a small protein formed by two amino acid chains (A-chain, 21aa, and B-chain, 30aa) connected by two disulfuric chains.

The gene encoding is located in the short arm of chromosome 11. Its precursor, called preproinsulin, is synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum. Right after its synthesis, this protein undergoes enzymatic cleavage to proinsulin (86 aa).

The prohormone is packed in small granules within the Golgi complex, that migrates to the cell surface. As the granules mature, 3 proteases split the proinsulin into equal amounts of insulin and C-peptide.

These secretory granules are stored within the intracellular space until their contents are released by exocytosis.

I hope you have a SUPER day!

Which best explains the surface tension of water

In-s [12.5K]

Surface tension of water is 72 dynes/cm at 25°C . It would take a force of 72 dynes to break a surface film of water 1 cm long.

Hope this helps.
