Blood pressure is highest in the arteries near the heart

Blood pressure is determined both by the amount of blood your heart pumps and the amount of resistance to blood flow in your arteries. The more blood your heart pumps and the narrower your arteries, the higher your blood pressure. A blood pressure reading is given in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). It has two numbers.

Answer: Blood pressure is highest in the arteries near the heart.

Explanation: In the arteries, the hydrostatic pressure near the heart is very high while in the case of arterioles the rate of flow reduces (but pressure increases) as the openings of the arterioles become narrow. Thus these two tubules have thick muscular walls. While the veins and venules have lower pressure and thus their walls are also thin and less muscular.

How can you tell what genes are recessive or dominant when looking at actual gene setups?
devlian [24]
By looking at a gene set up or a punnet square,a gene that's dominant would be represented by a capital letter and recessive traits are represented by lowercase letters for example brown eyes are considered a dominant trait which can be represented as BB for homozygous, and Bb for heterozygous. Since blue eyes are recessive they would be bb.

When is a peptide bond formed during the process of translation?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

At the "Elongation" or "middle stage" of the translation, the peptide bond is formed.

Explanation:

We know that there are three steps or stages of the translation process. Among these 3, in the elongation stage, amino acids are carried to the ribosome by tRNAs, and then they become linked together to form a chain.

In this stage, at first, methionine-carrying tRNA starts in the middle slot of the ribosome, called the P site. Next to it, a new codon is opened in another slot, called the A site. The A site will be used for the "landing site" for the next tRNA. Once the matching tRNA has arrived in the A site, the formation of the peptide bond happens. This peptide bond connects one amino acid to another. This step transfers the methionine from the first tRNA onto the amino acid of the second tRNA in the A site.
