Why are Canada’s Evergreen Forests considered “Earth’s Northern Lungs”? (think about the photosynthesis equation)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Although trees have responded to global warming in the past‐ to temperatures higher than they are now- the rate of change predicted in the 21st century is likely to be unprecedented. Greenhouse gas emissions could cause a 3°-6°C increase in mean land surface temperature at high temperatures and temperatures latitudes. Despite this, few experiments have isolated the effects of temperature for this scenario on trees and forests. This review focuses on tree and forest responses at boreal and temperate latitudes, ranging from the cellular to the ecosystem level. Adaptation to varying temperatures revolves around the trade- off between utilizing the full growing season and minimizing frost damage through proper timing of hardening in autumn and dehardening in spring.

Indicate which the following statements are true.

a. During glycolysis, glucose molecules are hydrolysed to yield CO2 and H2O
b. The cleavage of fructose 1,6-bisphosphate by phosphofructokinase yields two molecules of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate.
c. When subjected to anaerobic conditions, glycolysis in mammalian cells continues and causes a buildup of pyruvate in the cytosol.
d. In the mitochondrial matrix, the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex produces CO2, acetyl-CoA and NADH.
e. Fatty acids can be transported into mitochondria and converted into acetyl-CoA, FADH2 and NADH

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is:   D  

Explanation:

(a) This process does not occur during glycolysis, it occurs after glycolysis since pyruvate is generally accepted to be the last product of glycolysis

(b) Phosphofructokinase does not produce two molecules of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate but rather produces of one molecule of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate

(c) During anaerobic conditions in mammals, pyruvate is converted to lactate by the enzyme lactate dehydrogenase. It can actually cause the accumulation of lactic acid/lactate in the muscle which causes muscle fatigue but does not cause buildup of pyruvate in the cytosol.

(d) In the fate of pyruvate, the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex produces CO2, acetyl-CoA and NADH in the mitochondrial matrix. The acetyl-coA produced thereof serves as a precursor for the citric acid cycle.

Explanation:

The GPCRs known in full as G protein-coupled receptors are viewed by many as the largest group of membrane proteins that are found in human genome. They share a common architecture. The seven-transmembrane (7TM) receptors are mostly used interchangeably with the GPCRs even though there are known receptors that have seven membrane domains and do not just signal through the G proteins.

White blood cells called B cells produce proteins that can be used for the treatment of certain illnesses. However, these B cells do not live for very long on their own. To keep the B cells growing for a long time in laboratories, scientists fuse the B cells with cancer cells (fused B-cancer cells) that do grow for a very long time. The particular cancer cells used for the fusion are treated with chemicals that make them unable to produce the nitrogenous bases adenine and guanine, but the B cells with which they are fused do produce these nitrogenous bases. The scientists grow the large fused B-cancer cells in a growth medium that contains necessary nutrients for the cells and includes a source of carbon.
(a) Describe the role of carbon in biological systems.
(b) The membranes of both B cells and the cancer cells are largely composed of phospholipids. Explain how, when the membranes are fused, the polar parts of the phospholipids from one cell will interact with the phospholipids from the other cell and how the nonpolar parts of the phospholipids from one cell will interact with the phospholipids from the other cell.
(c) Make a claim about the most immediate effect on the fused B-cancer cells if the fused cells are transferred to a growth medium that lacks a source of nitrogen.
(d) Provide reasoning with evidence based on the composition of biological macromolecules to support your claim.

Answers

The father would be dominant recessive. The mother is white so therefore her genotype would be recessive, bb . And the offspring are 50%, 50%. So therefore there has to be a Dominant gene present to form black offspring. But he can not be completely dominant or all the offspring would be black. So the fathers genotype would be Bb B=black b=white and his phenotype would be black.

what are catabolic reactions

Answers

Answer:

which complex molecules are broken down to simpler components, are classified as catabolic reactions. Taken as a group of reactions within a cell or even an organism, they can be referred to as the cell's or organism's anabolism or catabolism.

Explanation:

Catabolic reactions are a type of metabolic reaction that take place within a cell. Larger molecules are separated to form smaller molecules, as in the case of respiration where glucose is broken down to form carbon dioxide and water. Often they are hydrolysis reactions in which water molecules are used to break bonds.

6. Explain why heavy water is heaver than regular water.

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation section.

Explanation:

So, let us dive straight into the solution to this particular Question or problem. We are asked to explain the phenomenon in each case.

(1). Expansion occurs at the surface of a pond water when it freezes at 0°C thus creating higher density for the (liquid) water at below the iced surface.

(2). When sugar is put in water it does not ionized but only dissolved as a molecule, therefore, sugar is a weak electrolyte.

(3). Cell membranes are made of phospholipids and proteins because phospholipids as far will not want to mix with water, also movement of molecules is done by the presence of protein.

(4). The witches cell membranes does not have phospholipids which makes it to have little adhesion force and this was the prime factor in the dissolving of the witch by water. The cell membrane contain nonfatty components.

(5). The statement is true, and this is a phenomenon refer to as the Mpemba effect that is to say when one cools down hot water it looses some of it mass(reduces the quantity of water) and this is due to evaporation. Thus, as the quantity of water reduced, freezing becomes faster.

(6). Heavy water is D2O while normal water is H2O. Where D in D20 means Deuterium which is heavier than Hydrogen atoms in heavy water.

2. Ventricular filling.

3. Isovolumetric contraction.

4. Ventricular ejection.

5. Ventricular filling.

6. Ventricular ejection.

7. Isovolumetric contraction.

Explanation:

In Human anatomy, cardiac cycle can be defined as a complete heartbeat of the human heart which comprises of sequential alternating contraction and relaxation of the atria and ventricles, therefore causing blood to flow unidirectionally (one direction) throughout the human body.

Generally, the cardiac cycle occurs in two (2) stages;

Diastole: in this stage, the ventricles is relaxed and would be filled with blood. Systole: at this stage, the muscles contracts and thus, allow blood to be pushed through the atria.

The following terms describe the physical or mecahnical events with the correct phases of the cardiac cycle in mammals (human beings).

1. Isovolumetric relaxation: All 4 cardiac valves are closed and all 4 chambers are relaxed during this phase.

2. Ventricular filling: The maximum amount of blood is in the ventricles at the end of this phase.

3. Isovolumetric contraction: The pressure in the ventricles is higher than in the atria, but lower than in the arteries, during this phase.

4. Ventricular ejection: The semilunar valves are open and the AV valves are closed during this phase.

5. Ventricular filling: The atria contract at the end of this phase.

6. Ventricular ejection: The pressure in the ventricles is higher than the pressure in both the atria and the arteries during this phase.

7. Isovolumetric contraction: Systole begins with this phase.
