Answer:
Explanation:
Molecular biology has enabled the identification of the mechanisms whereby inactive myostatin increases skeletal muscle growth in double-muscled (DM) animals. Myostatin is a secreted growth differentiation factor belonging to the transforming growth factor-β superfamily. Mutations make the myostatin gene inactive, resulting in muscle hypertrophy. The relationship between the different characteristics of DM cattle are defined with possible consequences for livestock husbandry. The extremely high carcass yield of DM animals coincides with a reduction in the size of most vital organs. As a consequence, DM animals may be more susceptible to respiratory disease, urolithiasis, lameness, nutritional stress, heat stress and dystocia, resulting in a lower robustness. Their feed intake capacity is reduced, necessitating a diet with a greater nutrient density. The modified myofiber type is responsible for a lower capillary density, and it induces a more glycolytic metabolism. There are associated changes for the living animal and post-mortem metabolism alterations, requiring appropriate slaughter conditions to maintain a high meat quality. Intramuscular fat content is low, and it is characterized by more unsaturated fatty acids, providing healthier meat for the consumer. It may not always be easy to find a balance between the different disciplines underlying the livestock husbandry of DM animals to realize a good performance and health and meat quality.
Answer:
The correct answer here is D) None of the above
Explanation:
Lactose intolerance and sucrose intolerance in themselves are not practices but side effects of practices that affect health concerns.
For instance, research shows that cultures with a long history of dairy farming and milk drinking or at least a history of drinking milk have a much higher likelihood to be <u>lactose tolerant</u> than those who don't. And when they can tolerate lactose their bodies take note of this and records the same in their genetic databank.

Answer:
A. Obligate
Explanation:
An obligate relationship is one where both organisms are interdependent with one another in a way that one cannot survive without the other.
A parasitic relationship is where one organism benefits, and the other is harmed.
A mutualistic relationship is one where both organisms "work together," therefore benefiting one another.
A facultative relationship is where both species benefit off of one another, but are not fully dependent on one another to the point they cannot survive without their symbotic partner.
