Answer:

A single older adult who has been losing weight involuntarily may benefit from a nutrition program in which the professionals in charge designs a healthy diet for him. This diet should reduce fats and carbohydrates because this can increase the risk of heart attack and other cardiovascular diseases. Additionally, salt intake should be reduced so as not to force the functioning of the kidneys that are responsible for the elimination of toxins in the body. In order to increase their body mass, the elderly should increase the consumption of protein and, accompanied by their diet, must take part in an exercise program.

Acetylcholine binds to a GPCR on heart muscle, making the heart beat more slowly. The activated receptor stimulates a G protein,
kogti [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is option (b) "addition of a drug that prevents the α subunit from exchanging GDP for GTP".

Explanation:

The G protein is a name given to a family of proteins that act as a switch in diverse cellular processes, transmitting signals from outside to inside of the cells. When a G protein receptor is activated by a neurotransmitter such as dopamine, the alpha subunit exchanges its GDP for a GTP and disassociates G-protein itself. An addition of a drug that prevents this action would prevent  G protein disassociation, which would enhance the effect of stimulating G protein that acetylcholine does.

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Which type(s) of cell division reduce(s) the chromosome number by half?

                           Meiosis l

Which type(s) of cell division can be classified as reductional?  

                            Meiosis I

Which type(s) of cell division can be classified as equational?

                           Mitosis and Meiosis II

Explanation:

Meiosis is a type of cell division which occurs in the germ or reproductive cells to produce gametes. It is completed in the two stages, meiosis I and meiosis II.  The cells which are going to divide by meiosis are diploid having two sets of chromosomes. Meiosis I is the first stage of the meiosis. At the end of meiosis I two daughter cells are formed having only 1 set of chromosomes and chromosome numbers are reduced to half. Thus, meiosis I is a reductional division.  

Mitosis and meiosis II is the equational division as after division chromosome number remains the same as in the parent.

Which of the following populations would be considered r-selected? Black Widow Spiders - they produce 1000s of offspring and few
belka [17]

Answer:

Option 1.

Explanation:

r-selected species may be defined as the species that has higher growth rate, shows less parental care and the rate of survival of the off spring is low as compared  with k selected species.

Black widow spiders have the ability to produce 1000 offspring. Their chances of survival are extremely low and only few species of black widow spiders survive. Hence, black widow spider is r-selected species.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
