Answer:

Cabbage is a different story. Per capita consumption of it peaked way back in the 1920s, when the average American ate 22 pounds of it per year. Nowadays, we eat about eight pounds, most of it disguised as cole slaw or sauerkraut.

This makes it pretty interesting that kale and cabbage — along with broccoli, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, collard greens, and kohlrabi, and several other vegetables — all come from the exact same plant species: Brassica oleracea.

In some circles, kale has become really, really popular. Once a little-known speciality crop, its meteoric rise is now the subject of national news segments. Some experts are predicting that kale salads will soon be on the menus at TGI Friday's and McDonald's.

Mrs. Jones blood typing results showed agglutination with the plasma containing anti - B antibodies only. What is her blood type

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Mrs Jones Blood type= B type.

Safe transfusion from: B and O blood type.

Explanation:

In the given example, the anti-B antibodies are present in the donor plasma. Since anti-B antibodies react with B antigen present on the RBCs of blood, Mrs. Jones should have B antigen on the surface of her RBCs. The blood type with only B-antigen on the RBC's surface is blood type "B".

Hence, her blood type is "B" type which has B antigens that react with anti B antibodies of the donor plasma causing agglutination and hemolysis of RBCs.

She can get the blood of B and O blood types. Blood type O is a universal blood type as it does not have B or A antigens on the surface of its RBCs to initiate the agglutination.

klio [65]

Research has demonstrated that neural stem cells have an impaired ability to differentiate into functional neurons when subjected to ethanol. They found out that treating cultured neural system impairs their ability to differentiate in functioning neurons. With this impairment it seems to be united with aberrant, dense methylation and loci which are active in normal tissue.

Which of the following is not attached to the central carbon atom in an amino acidA. A carboxyl functional groupB. An amino func

gavmur [86]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. An oxygen

Explanation:

Amino acid is a compound which serves as the building block or proteins. They are the smallest and simplest unit of protein. They contain carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, and oxygen.

Each amino acid has a central carbon atom which is designated as alpha carbon which is attached with a carbonyl functional group, an amino-functional group, a hydrogen atom, and a side chain(R group). So oxygen is not bound directly with the central carbon atom.

The R group is different in different amino acid. Glycine is the simplest amino acid and it has H in place of the R group.
