2. potential and kinetic
3. potential and kinetic
c.
1. potential
2. kinetic
3. potential and kinetic
d.
1. potential and kinetic
2. kinetic
3. kinetic

Answers

Answer:

1 - Potential   2 - Kinetic  3 - Potential and Kinetic

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy that an object has when it has a certain amount of elevation from the ground level and to calculate it, we can multiply the mass of the object with the gravitational acceleration constant.

hKinetic energy is the energy that the object has when it has a speed above zero, when it is moving. We can calculate the kinetic energy by multiplying the mass  of the object with it's speed.

In the first option, the pendulum has a height because it is just about to fall down, but it has no speed. So it only has potential energy.

In the second option, the pendulum is between the two ends so it is at the equilibrium point where it has no elevation but it has speed. So İt only has kinetic energy.

In the third option, the pendulum is still moving to the maximum height, so it has both elevation and speed, giving it both kinetic and potential energy.

what is DNA explain the concept of DNA and RNA​

Answers

Answer:

DNA is the abbreviation of deoxyribonucleic acid, while RNA stands for ribonucleic acid. Both the RNA and DNA carry certain genetic information, however, there is some difference between the two. DNA comprises sugar deoxyribose and RNA comprises sugar ribose. DNA is found to be stable under alkaline conditions, while RNA is not stable.  

DNA is a molecule having double strands, while RNA is a single-stranded molecule. There is a slight difference in the base-pairing found in the two nucleic acids. In DNA, the bases present are adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine. While RNA utilizes adenine, uracil, cytosine, and guanine bases. Both RNA and DNA perform distinct roles in humans. RNA codes for amino acids and functions as a messenger between the ribosomes and the DNA to produce proteins. While DNA is accountable for storing and conducting genetic information.

Essential amino acids are amino acids that must be obtained through the diet. Non‑essential amino acids can be made biosynthetically. Classify the amino acids into either essential or non‑essential amino acids.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

There are at present 20 major amino acids produced in the body. These amino acids are important biological components in the body. They are the building blocks of proteins. Also essential in the synthesis of nucleotides including the DNA and RNA. There are different ways of classified these amino acids:

Essential and non essential. The essential amino acids cannot be synthesized from scratch in the body but has to be obtained from our diet, while non essential is produced by the body

Acidic, basic, neutral, polar, non polar etc.

The essential amino acids are arginine, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, threonine, tryptophan, and valine.

While the non essential amino acids are: alanine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamic acid, glutamine, glycine, proline, serine, and tyrosine.

During mismatch repair, it is essential for the cell to be able to distinguish between the old template DNA strand and the newly synthesized DNA strand in order to make the appropriate correction of a mispairing created during DNA replication. How is this accomplished In E. coli?

Answers

Answer:

The difference between the methylation states of the two DNA strands serves as a recognition point between the old and new strands.

Explanation:

DNA mismatch repair is a mechanism for recognizing and repairing errors during DNA synthesis such as insertion, deletion, and wrong base pairings that can arise during DNA replication and recombination.

Mismatch repair process begins as soon as new DNA has been made. First, a protein complex recognizes and binds to the mismatched base. A second complex cuts the DNA near the mismatch, and more enzymes cut out the incorrect nucleotide and some surrounding DNA. A DNA polymerase then replaces the excised DNA parts with correct nucleotides, and DNA ligase seals the gap.

In gram-negative bacteria, for example E. Coli, original and newly made strands of DNA differentiated by their methylation state. An old DNA strand will have methyl groups attached to some of its bases, while a newly made DNA strand will not yet have gotten its methyl group.

Please explain study of variation patterns in different taxon.

Answers

Answer:

By using genetical and ecological approaches

Explanation:

Genetic variation is useful to study the diversity of the species and to understand both intraspecific and interspecific variation patterns. In genetics assays, two or more genetic sequences belonging to different organisms are compared in order to determine nucleotide differences (i.e., homology level) between the complete sequences, which enable to determine the evolutionary relationships between taxa.

Ecological diversity is associated with the variation of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Ecological variation across species can be represented by different measures such as niche variation among individuals, the number of trophic levels, etc. Ecological variation patterns may affect the ecological dynamics of species and their communities, thereby being of vital importance for diversity classification studies.

How to identify karyotype?

The normal karyotype of the species is described as 46, may XX or XY, in which the first number of chromosomes is followed by a comma indicating the  chromosomes. Thus, 46, XX corresponds to the karyotype of a woman; and 46, XY represents a male karyotype.

Aneuploidy is the presence of an abnormal number of chromosomes in a cell so this is the exception.

TS is 67 years old with a long history of knee osteoarthritis for which he self-medicates regularly with over-the-counter (OTC) naproxen. He is in the clinic today complaining of a swallowing difficulty that has progressively worsened over the past several months. He has otherwise been healthy and has not seen a doctor in many years. TS denies significant past medical history. A review of systems is negative except for arthritic symptoms and swallowing difficulty. He denies noticing blood in his stool and vomiting blood. He denies history of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and ulcer. He does not drink alcohol, although he drank heavily many years ago. He does not smoke. TS describes the dysphagia this way: "Food gets stuck in my throat, and I can’t get it down." The feeling occurs only after he has ingested solid food; liquids are not a problem. There is burning chest pain associated with meals. He is scheduled for an upper GI endoscopy.

Required:

a. What is the likely cause of the dysphagia?
b. What advice should he be given regarding his OTC medication at this time?
c. What are the usual signs and symptoms of GERD? How will it be managed?

Answers

Answer:

Dyspahgia and alcohol are related.Past years of alcohol(besides medication for asthma,sedatives,antidepressants) intake may  trigger  the transformation of some of the cells lining the oesophagus. The oesophagus  is  lined with stratified epithelial  cells. Persistent alcohol intake may lead to  transformation these cells to abnormal cell of  columnar epithelial.They are known as Dysplasia

The dysplasia  in the patients  leads to Barrett's esophagus.These Columnar cells makes the oesophagus of TS prone to  esophageal adenocarcinoma .The dysplasia  may lead to tumour,and therefore  obstruction of the oesophagus.This may therefore account for  the Dysphagia experienced by TS,Hence peristalsis is inhibited and soild foods can  not be moved down,

2.The state of the medication should be liquid. Because of  the difficulty in swallowing,which  will not allow the medication to reach stomach,for absorption.Intravenous administration can also be adopted.

3. Dysphagia,burning sensation due to acid reflex , pain in the chest and upper abdominal part ,tendencies to regurgitate foods,bad breath, are some of the symptoms of Gastroestro esophageal reflux,

Abstinence from alcohol,oily foods,smoking,avoiding lying down immediately after eating,avoidance of carbonated drinks,tight clothing at the waist, and use of  herbal products e.g marshmallow are examples of method of managements

Use of anti acids,H2 blockers,and application of erythromycin,together with surgery are used for the managements.

Explain the mechanism responsible for summation of contractions and the increase in height of contraction when the stimulus frequency is increased.

Answers

Answer:

The higher the stimulation frequency, the contractions will be more continuous and even additive.

Continuous stimuli reactivate muscle contraction once the action potential cycle is complete.

Explanation:

Muscle contractions can be continuous or cumulative once the action potential curve drops, since the action potential at the top of the mountain is in a refractory period.

I knit a graph of what cumulative contractions are like due to continuous stimulation.

In the graph I leave you pointed out some references:

mr = refractory moment

mnr = non-refractory moment (where the new stimulation is accepted and a more powerful cumulative muscle contraction is generated)

PA = potential for muscle action or contraction itself.

The series that correctly lists the eight taxonomic levels in order, from the broadest group to the most specific group is: domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species.

What is taxonomic order?

Taxonomic order refers to the systematic arrangement of organisms into a hierarchy of groups based on their shared characteristics and evolutionary relationships. Taxonomy is the science of identifying, describing, and naming species, and it helps to organize the diversity of life on earth into groups that reflect their evolutionary history.

The taxonomic order starts with the broadest category, the domain, and narrows down to the most specific category, the species. Each category represents a level of classification that shares certain characteristics, and the categories are nested within each other, forming a hierarchical structure.

The eight main taxonomic levels in order, from broadest to most specific, are domain, kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, genus, and species. This hierarchical system of classification helps scientists to better understand the relationships and diversity of organisms in the natural world.
