According the theory developed by Lynn Margulis (endosymbiotic theory, why was it adaptive for a host cell to keep an engulfed c

ell alive, rather than digesting it and using it as food?

Answer:

The engulfed cell provided the host cell with adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Explanation:

The engulfed cell provided the host cell with adenosine triphosphate (ATP) therefore, as long as they continued their partnership, the host cell can get free energy.

An alleles is dominant is heterozygote when it is
Fittoniya [83]

An allele is dominant and heterzygote (Pp) when a dominant allele (P) is crossed with a recessive allele (p).

Explanation:

A dominant allele is the one with a particular dominant character or phenotype which dominates even though there are other alleles found.  

A heterozygous allele results from two different alleles coding for a gene.

A heterozygous dominant allele (Pp) results from the crossing of a dominant allele (P) with a recessive allele due to complete masking of the recessive allele (p).

For example, when dominant brown eyes are crossed with recessive blue eyes, in a heterozygous dominant allele results in brown eyes and masks the recessive blue eyes.

What term describes the rising and sinking of the lithosphere as material is added or removed?
Margaret [11]
<span>Composition. (We use the crust-mantle-core terminology to describe differences in chemical composition in Earth's interior. We use the lithosphere- asthenosphere terminology to describe differences the physical state and behavior. Note that the boundaries between layers with different compositions do not occur at the same depths as the boundaries between layers with different physical properties. For example, there is a change in composition when passing from crust into mantle. But there is no change in physical state or behavior at this boundary- the uppermost part of the mantle behaves in the same way that the crust does because it is still far enough below its melting temperature to be a rigid, brittle solid. The transition to a softer, more pliable solid occurs further down within the mantle and this change in behavior occurs with no change in composition.)</span>

The physician is attending to a 72-year-old client with a malignant brain tumor. the physician recommends immediate radiation th
MariettaO [177]
Physician recommends radiation therapy because radiation therapy helps in preventing cellular growth. It uses high-energy radiation to shrink tumor or kill cancer cells. It may be used to cure or to control malignancy when the tumor can no longer be removed or when lymph node involvement is present; also, it can be used prophylactically to prevent spread. Radiation therapy kills cancer cells by damaging their DNA which is the molecules inside cells that carry genetic information and pass it from generation to generation. Radiation therapy can either damage DNA directly or create charged particles within the cells that can in turn damage the DNA. Cancer cells whose DNA is damaged beyond repair stop dividing or die and when these cells die, they are eliminated by the body through natural process.

What three categories of energy expenditure make up the total energy expenditure? Define each briefly. For the average person, h
Ratling [72]

The categories  of energy expenditure include the following:

  • Resting metabolic rate - This is the total number of calories burned when your body is completely at rest and accounts for 60-75 percent
  • Thermic effect of feeding - This happens during feeding in which the metabolic rate increases and heat is produced and accounts for 5-15 percent
  • The thermic effect of activity -  the amount of energy burned during all physical activity and accounts for 15-30 percent.

<h3>What is Energy expenditure?</h3>

These are the processes which involves how energy is used or spent. The categories are mentioned above with their appropriate explanations.
