Question: A rat approaches a piece of rotting fruit, takes a small bite, and runs away. Which statement best explains the reason

for the rat’s behavior?
A. The rat runs away to process the sensory information.
B. Sensory receptors in the rat’s whiskers respond to the input about the texture of the fruit.
C. Information gathered by the rat’s auditory receptors signals that the environment around the fruit is not safe.

I will mark brainiest if your response has scientific reasoning and accurate, I believe I have the answer, yet I want to double-check. Thank you!

Answer : The rat’s chemical receptors detect chemicals in the fruit that alert the rat to possible danger.

Hope it helps

Answer: See below

Explanation:

There should be another answer that can be chosen: the rat’s chemical receptors detect chemicals in the fruit that alert the rat to possible danger. Sensory receptors in the rat's whiskers respond to input about the texture of the fruit, maybe it's slimy or rancid, if if it was another factor such as the environment, it wouldn't have approached the fruit in the first place.

The metabolic fate of fatty acids is dependent on two enzymes, carnitine acyltransferase i and acetyl-coa carboxylase. carnitine
zvonat [6]

The correct answer is the last statement.

If the regulatory serine is mutated to alanine, then acetyl-CoA carboxylase will get activated spontaneously and will produce malonyl-CoA. The increased concentrations of malonyl-CoA will obstruct the oxidation of fatty acids by preventing the entry of fatty acids into the mitochondria.

It is because the AMP-activated protein kinase phosphorylates the serine residues of acetyl-CoA carboxylase to inactivate it. If a mutation occurs in such residues, then the AMPL cannot phosphorylate acetyl-CoA carboxylase and this enzyme will get activated spontaneously.

In such a situation, there will be more than sufficient production of malonyl-CoA, which will inhibit the admittance of more fatty acid getting inside the mitochondria; this will indirectly prevent the oxidation of fatty acids.

What is the layer of stem cells that constantly divide to renew the epidermis?
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer: I think, I may be wrong, but I think the answer is stratum basale.  i <em>found this online</em>

Explanation: The topmost layer is dead and sheds continuously. It is progressively replaced by stem cells that divide in the basal layer (stratum basale). The dermis connects the epidermis to the hypodermis and provides strength and elasticity due to the presence of collagen and elastin fibers.

URGENT! What results would you expect to see if exercise does not increase bone mass?
Nikitich [7]

When exercise does not increase bone mass, it has been observed that the risk of bone fractures increases due to osteoporosis.

<h3>What are the benefits of exercise to bone mass and density?</h3>

Bone mass refers to the mass of the bones in a living organism as a result of the deposition of minerals within the bone.

An increase in bone mass is directly related to the strength of the bone.

Strong bones have high bone masses whereas weak bone have low bone mass.

Physical activity have been shown to improve bone mass by increase the mass of deposited minerals in the bone.

Exercise such as walking, running, jogging, and other forms of exercise have been shown to improve bone mass and hence, the strength of bones.

However, when exercise does not increase bone mass, osteoporosis is observed which results in bone fracture.

In conclusion, the strength of a bone is directly related to the bone mass which is directly related to the mass of minerals deposited within them.
