5 0

From the options, the true statements about glycocalyx are : ( 1 ) and ( 3 )

  • All animal cell have a glycocalyx ( 1 )
  • The glycocalyx helps one cell adhere to another ( 3 )

Glycocalyx is a layer of macromolecules  attached to the cell membrane of cells. they perform several functions like protecting the cell from the entrance of pathogens and also providing a medium for cell to cell interaction.

Glycocalyx are found in cells of living organisms, and they are made up of glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans and glycoproteins as well. hence they are not comprised mostly of proteins.

Hence we can conclude that the true statements about glycocalyx are : All animal cell have a glycocalyx and the glycocalyx helps one cell adhere to another

yaroslaw [1]

GAU to GAC​ is least likely to change phenotype of an organism.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Phenotype of an organism is defined as the physical characteristics of an organism. This phenotype is dependent on the genotype of the organisms. This means the phenotypic characters are actually the expressions of the genes of the organisms. Now the genes are expressed in form of codons that are the three nitrogen base sequences. Each codon codes for a particular amino acid which in turn polymerises to from the protein which actually forms the phenotype of the organism.

Now there are 20 amino acids and 64 codons. Thus there are more than 1 codons for a single amino acid. So, if a codon is replaced by another codon which codes for same amino acid, then the phenotype is least likely to be affected.

Both the GAU and  GAC​ codes for aspartic acid. So the phenotype won't be affected much by this mutation

Answer:

This is an example of scope creep.

Explanation:

The main reasons for scope creep are poor requirements analysis, underestimating the complexity of the project, not involving users early enough, and lack of change control. Thus, the given case is an illustration of scope creep.

Novay_Z [31]

Ans.

The first pass effect is defined as a phenomenon of metabolism of drug, in which drug concentration is greatly decreased before reaching the systemic circulation. It represents that fraction of drug lost, at the time of absorption of drug in gut.

Thus, the client is not receiving all the dosage of ingested drug (aspirin) because of the 'first pass effect.'
