Hyperthyroidism is the answer

The biggest underlying cause of excessive metabolic rate, which is abnormal, is a hyperthyroidism. This is an excess production of the thyroid hormone by the thyroid gland. Thyroid hormone is significant since it acts to increase the basal metabolic rate and therefore essential to proper development and differentiation of all cells of the human body.

If the outside temperature decreases by 20 degrees Celsius, what will happen to a reptile’s body temperature?
oksian1 [2.3K]

The reptile's body temperature rises when the external temperature rises. When the temperature drops, so does his body temperature. If a reptile feels cold because the external temperatures have made his blood cold, he'll lie in the sun to warm up. However, if the external temperature is too high, he scurries under a rock, dives in a pool or finds some kind of shade where he can cool down. Reptiles and other animals with ectothermic systems are vulnerable to extreme changes in temperature because they can't control their temperatures internally. They can control their body temperatures only by moving to an environment with a suitable ambient temperature.

Which type of stimulus following a behavior removes something that is unpleasant? positive reinforcer negative punisher positive
Zolol [24]

The type of stimulus following a behavior removes something that is unpleasant is the negative reinforcer.

Stimulus is any signal. This can be in the form of touch, smell, taste, etc. This stimulus triggers the nerve cells of the body that send to signals to the brain to generate a response. For example, when one person touches a hot utensil, the touch of heat acts as a stimulus, where the brain sends response in the form of instantly removal of the hand.

Negative reinforcement is the response towards a stimuli that has not yet been received. For example, taking a medicine before any disease appears  is the acts of negative reinforcement.

If the DNA nucleotides read 3'-ATG-CGT-GAC-5', the amino acid sequence of the resulting polypeptide
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

5’ – TAC-GCA-CTG-3’

Explanation:

As per the Chargaff’s complementary base pairing rule purine always pairs with a pyrimidine.  

Purines include adenine (A) and cytosine (C)

Pyrimidine include thymine (T) and guanine (G)

Thus an A always pair with T and C always pair with G

Thus, the resulting poly peptide for the given amino acid sequence is  

3'-ATG-CGT-GAC-5'

5’ – TAC-GCA-CTG-3’
