Explanation:
More than a century ago, the first fossils were discovered in Antarctica. During the expedition to the Pole
Answer:
increasing growth and decreasing rate of growth
Explanation:
Global population growth slowing due to greater longevity and lower fertility rates. The world's population is getting older and growing at a slower pace but is still expected to increase from 7.7 billion currently to 9.7 billion in 2050
Answer:
D -- ATP synthesis when the phosphate donor is a substrate with high phosphoryl transfer potential
Explanation:
Substrate- level phosphorylation is the synthesis of ATP from ADP by the transfer of phosphoryl group from a substrate with high phosphoryl group potential to the ADP molecule.
In substrate-level phosphorylation, the donor is a phosphorylated intermediate molecule with a high phosphate transfer potential and it is a way through which phosphate in introduced into a molecule, the other two ways are oxidative phosphorylation and photophosphorylation. In substrate-level phosphorylation, a PO4^2- is transferred from a phosphate intermediate (substrate) to ADP to form ATP. Phosphorylase and kinases are enzymes involved in this reaction. An example is the reaction in glycolysis which involves phosphoenolpyruvate and ADP to form Pyruvate and ATP. This is to ensure adequate supply of energy to cells and also during anoxia so as not to make mitochodria strain the glycolytic ATP reserves.
Answer:
Lady Mary Wortley Montagu adapted "variolation" instead of "vaccination" to prevent smallpox in her children. She learned about it when she was in Constantinople (Turkey) with her husband. There, prisoners were intentionally inoculated with smallpox virus under their skin. When she saw that they didn't develop the disease and were among survivors, she inoculated smallpox virus to her children (son and daughter) as well using a needle. Later on, efforts of Edward Jenner towards vaccination were also recognized and it became a fashion to inoculate smallpox as a preventive measure.
