Severe anemia may trigger an adaptive conversion of yellow bone marrow to red bone marrow.

Anaemia is defined as the decrease or the reduction of the oxygen carrying content of the blood which are the red blood cells.

These red blood cells and other blood cells which include the white blood cells and the platelets are produced in the body by the bone marrows by a process called haemopoiesis.

The bone marrow is divided into two:

yellow bone marrow and
red bone marrow.

The red bone marrow is made up of stem cells which can be converted to red cells when the need arises while yellow bone marrow is made up of fat.

During health conditions such as anaemia, there is increase in the need of red blood cells by the body.

There is usually the conversation of yellow bone marrow to red bone marrow to compensate for the increased demand of red blood cells.

This conversation is called an adaptive conversation.

Therefore,Severe anemia may trigger an adaptive conversion of yellow bone marrow to red bone marrow.

kykrilka [37]

An air mass that originates in the Pacific ocean, west of Brazil, is most likely WARM AND WET.

A. warm and wet

Explanation:

The pacific ocean has the tropical maritime air mass so it is warm and wet. they affect the United States originate over the Caribbean sea, Mexico, pacific and the western Brazil.

So the air masses in the pacific ocean, western Brazil are wet and warm.the air masses have the fairly uniform temperature and the moisture content in the horizontal direction.

Air masses are characterized by their temperature and the humidity properties. The air mass where the originate is based on the surface properties.

Under anaerobic conditions, such as intense exercise, pyruvate is converted to ____________ . This 3-carbon molecule travels thr

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Under anaerobic conditions, such as intense exercise, pyruvate is converted to lactate. This 3-carbon molecule travels through the blood to the liver, where it can be converted to glucose by the cori cycle.

Under aerobic conditions, pyruvate enters the mitochondrion, where it is converted to acetyle CoA . This 2-carbon molecule goes on to participate in a series of oxidative reactions called the Citric acid cycle.

Explanation:

In the question ,among the given 6 options ,the simplest way to find the answer can be ,to find either the option is aerobic (presence of free oxygen ) or anaerobic (lack of free oxygen). Among the options , glucose is an incorrect option as it is a carbohydrate and used in respiration process .In aerobic process ,the glucose can be break down but in anaerobic ,it can only be used.

Other option is ATP- ATP is the energy source of the cell and used for storing energy or reactions of the cell,thus this option do not belong to the given question.

thus its clear the rest four options are the answer .

among four two options belong to aerobic and the rest two are anaerobic.

Under anaerobic conditions-

The pyruvate is converted into lactate because under the absence of oxygen only the NAD+ can be regenerated, thus further can allow glycolysis.

The cori cycle is also called lactic acidic cycle, thus this cycle is a metabollic pathway produced by anaerobic glycolysis (which takes place by regeneration of NAD+)transporting the molecules from blood to liver and further converting to glucose

Under aerobic conditions,-

The pyruvate is converted into Acetyle CoA so as to further produce citric acid and then citric acidic cycle. Thus Acetyle CoA forms more ATP which help in the regeneration of NAD+ and production of citric acid cycle takes place.

HENCE , The correct options are - lactate cori acetyle CoA citric acid.
