Protein-energy malnutrition is a form of undernutrition caused by an extremely deficient intake of calories, protein, or both. Two examples of this type of malnutrition are kwashiokor and marasmus. Protein-energy malnutrition is more often caused by decreased absorption or abnormal metabolism. It is defined as a range of pathological conditions arising from coincident lack of protein and/or energy in varying proportions. The condition vary in forms ranging from mild through moderate to severe degrees.
A panther because it eats the primary consumer which would be the deer.
an oak tree is the producer (bottom of the food chain)
the deer is the primary consumer because it eats grass which would also be a producer
and the hawk would be the top predator because it eats a snake which would eat a mouse which would feed on a producer :)
Answer:
Clam.
Explanation:
Arthrophoda is largest phylum of the non-chordata. They are the segmented animals with jointed appendages. Their body is covered by exoskeleton and contains spiracles and body surface for respiration.
Insect, spider, crab and scorpion all are included in the phylum arthropoda. Clam is a bivalve shell that is included in the phylum mollusc. The body of clam is covered with an outer shell and their shells are connected by the abductor muscle. Hence, they are involved in phylum arthropoda.
Thus, the correct answer is option (b).
The correct answer is: A checkpoint will be activated if the spindle does not attach to a kinetochore.
Prokaryotes, do not undergo mitosis (like eukaryotes) and therefore have no need for a mitotic spindle. Prokaryotes also don’ t have checkpoints foor the regulation of cell division.
Normal eukaryotic cells (unlike cancer cells), move through the cell cycle in a regulated way in order to make sure that cells don't divide under conditions that are unfavorable for them. Information about their own internal state (nutrients, signal molecules, DNA integrity) is signal to go or not to go through the cell division. Because of that there are few checkpoints in the cell cycle at which the cell examines the signals and makes a “decision”. The major checkpoints are:
• The G1- the first point at which it must choose, once it passes the G1 checkpoint the cell enters S phase
• The G2-the cell checks DNA integrity and checks if replication is done well.
• The spindle checkpoint-at the transition from metaphase to anaphase.
