Answer:Single nucleotide polymorphisms or SNPs (pronounced "snips") are DNA

sequence variations that occur when a single nucleotide (A,T,C, or G) in the

genome sequence is altered (point mutation).

SNPs do not cause disease, but they can help determine the likelihood that someone will develop a particular disease.

Because single base mutations can either create additional restriction sites or destroy pre-existing sites, DNA preparations from different individuals frequently exhibit different patterns of size distribution of restriction fragments that hybridize with a particular probe. These differences are called

restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs).

How does eating influence high density lipoproteins (HDL) in the body?
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer: The element with the greatest influence on cholesterol levels is the fat content of food. Not only the amount of cholesterol, but also the type of fat.

Explanation:

Cholesterol is a type of fat found in the body, which is used to make hormones and vitamin D. The liver makes cholesterol to handle these tasks, but cholesterol can also be incorporated into the body through foods such as meat, dairy, and poultry. If you consume a lot of these, the cholesterol levels could become too high.

There are two types of cholesterol:

  • High-density lipoprotein (HDL) or “good cholesterol”. It transports     the excess of cholesterol to be expelled so<u> it wont end up in the arteries.  </u>
  • Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or “bad cholesterol”.<u> It transports cholesterol to the arteries, where it may collect in artery walls.</u> This could  lead to a buildup of plaque known as atherosclerosis which can increase the risk of blood clots and if one of them breaks away and blocks an artery, it could cause a stroke or heart attack.

If there is a predominance of saturated fatty acids in the fat of the diet, a rise in serum cholesterol and LDL-cholesterol is caused.  To lower the bad cholesterol, you should limit foods such as milk fats, fatty meats or sausage and include more fibre in your diet.  On the other hand, <u>polyunsaturated fatty acids - for example, those present in seed oils or fish - produce their reduction. Monounsaturated fatty acids, such as those provided by olive oil, act like polyunsaturated ones and, in addition, tend to raise HDL-cholesterol, so their use entails a greater benefit.</u>

Describe the process of generating geothermal electricity by outlining the steps involved. Take your description from the drilli
bekas [8.4K]
<span>Geothermal electricity takes steam from hot water, and uses it to spin/rotate a turbine. This turbine activates a generator, which then produces electricity. By drilling into the ground and accessing underground resources of steam, that steam can then be piped directly from beneath the ground to the generator unit.</span>

Electricity flows from?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electricity is a flow of tiny particles called electrons which can travel through wires. This flow is often called an 'electric current'. Just like water, which can only flow down a hill, an electric current can only flow if there's something to give it a 'push'.
