You work in a lab that studies brains and behavior. You and your labmate have both submitted rodent brains to a colleague to be

sectioned. Your species is a squirrel that is known for storing large numbers of nuts each autumn in a variety of hidden locations. Your labmate's species is a mole with almost nonexistent eyes. How do you predict their brains will compare

The squirrel had a larger brain and is smarter. I say this because the squirrel has to be smart enough to gain a large amount of nuts, hide those nuts from others, and remember where those nuts are. On the other hand, the mole is less smart bc it is primarily underground. The mole's location underground helps to keep it safe from other predators so it doesn't have to worry too much about that. the mole also can't see which means that sight isn't of enough importance to keep.

During transcription the DNA base sequence is transcribed into a complementary mRNA sequence. A codon table like the one shown b
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

b. Even though the DNA sequence changed, the sequence still codes for the same amino acid, so no change in phenotype will occur.

Explanation:

There is redundancy in the genetic code. That means that different codons can code for the same amino acids, so some mutations do not change the amino acid sequence of the protein.

Here, the amino acid is unchanged with the mutation.

If the amino acid sequence of the protein is the same, then the protein is not changed, so there will be no change in the phenotype

In fast-twitch oxidative-glycolytic fibers, their rapid increases in force rely on the ________ activity where rapid relaxation
Kitty [74]

Answer:

1. myosin ATPase

2. Ca2+-ATPase

Explanation:

ATPase activity of myosin head hydrolysis ATP and energize the myosin head. The energized myosin head forms cross bridges to facilitate the power stroke of muscle contraction. The fast-twitch oxidative-glycolytic fibers have the ability to produce ATP by aerobic respiration.  

These fibers have the  ATPase in their myosin heads that hydrolyze ATP three to five times faster than the myosin ATPase in slow fibers. This ensures the faster speed of contraction of these fast-twitch muscle fibers.

During their relaxation, Ca2+ ATPase pumps the calcium ions back to the sarcoplasmic reticulum. As the level of Ca2+ ions in the sarcoplasm decreases, calcium ions are released from troponin. Tropomyosin is allowed to cover the myosin-binding sites on actin and the muscle fiber relaxes faster.

After applying a tourniquet, the injury from a patient's leg stops bleeding. this is called:
vekshin1

The process of having to apply a tourniquet in a person’s leg due to injury and with continuous bleeding in order to stop it is called hemostasis. This process, the hemostasis, is a process of having to stop the flow of blood which is important in scenarios like this, in order for the patient to prevent of having to lose more blood.
