Answer:
The correct answer is: b) Inhibition of pancreatic beta-cells.
Explanation:
Type 1 Diabetes is a form of Diabetes Mellitus, a condition characterized by chronic hyperglycemia (high blood sugar levels) that can compromise many organs and even cause death if not treated properly.
The most common form of Diabetes Mellitus is Type 2 Diabetes, in which the pancreas produces insulin but cannot reach the target organs because of a pathologic state called Insulin Resistance.
Type 1 Diabetes, instead, is present in patients that cannot produce insulin on their own. Insulin is the most important hormone in the regulation of blood sugar - it is secreted by the pancreatic beta-cells when glycemia rises (which is normal after eating) and it is key in allowing glucose to reach the tissues where it's needed for energy requirements. Type 1 Diabetes is usually diagnosed in young, even pediatric, patients - the pancreatic beta-cells in these individuals are destroyed and unable to function (the reason for this is not clear in all cases), so they have to be administered with exogenous insulin to survive.
For the model animal to better represent Type 1 Diabetes, the mutation would have to inhibit pancreatic beta-cells.

The bacterium Methylophilus methylotrophus can use methanol and ammonia for protein synthesis. The glutamate dehydrogenase gene from E. coli was introduced into M. methylotrophus using recombinant DNA techniques. Under high ammonia conditions, the introduction of the glutamate dehydrogenase gene into M. methylotrophus resulted in an increase in protein yield. Select the statements that are reasonable explanations for the increased protein yield in the modified M. methylotrophus. Glutamate dehydrogenase catalyzes the formation of glutamate and glutamine in a two-step process. Both glutamate and glutamine play a key role in amino acid synthesis, thus an increase in levels of glutamate and glutamine increase protein synthesis. Glutamate dehydrogenase has a low affinity for NH^+_4, and can only catalyze the formation of glutamate from alpha-ketoglutarate and NH^+_4, when the concentration of NH^+_4 is high. Glutamate dehydrogenase has a high affinity for NH^+_4, thus the rate of glutamate synthesis increases exponentially under high ammonia conditions. Glutamate is the amino group donor for most transamination reactions involving amino acids, thus an increase in glutamate concentration increases protein synthesis.
Answer:
- Glutamate dehydrogenase has a low affinity for NH+4, and can only catalyze the formation of glutamate from alpha-ketoglutarate and NH+4, when the concentration of NH+4 is high.
- Glutamate is the amino group donor for most transamination reactions involving amino acids, thus an increase in glutamate concentration increases protein synthesis.
Explanation:
Glutamate dehydrogenase (GLDH) is an enzyme found in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, which is known to catalyze the reversible oxidative deamination of glutamate (Glu) to alpha-ketoglutarate and ammonia at the same time the oxidation of NADH to NAD. In bacteria, this enzyme (GLDH) is efficient only at high concentrations of the ammonium cation (NH4+), because it has a low affinity for NH4+. Moreover, transamination is a pathway that involves the transfer of an amino group from one amino acid to a ketoacid in order to form new amino acids (this reaction is responsible for the deamination of most amino acids). Glu is the donor of amino groups in most of the reactions catalyzed by enzymes involved in the transamination between an amino acid and an alpha-keto acid. In consequence, in presence of GLDH, a high concentration of Glu will increase the production of new amino acids and therefore also protein synthesis.
When curare, a neuromuscular poison, is dropped onto an isolated muscle-nerve preparation in a laboratory, the muscle does not contract when the nerve is stimulated, even though neurotransmitter is released from the nerve cell. Why does this happen
Answer:
Explanation:
Whenever the nerve terminal's action potential depolarizes, calcium enters the cell through the channels. Calcium allows acetylcholine (ACh) to be released more easily. These ACh molecules subsequently circulate into the synaptic cleft and attach to the motor end-plate of the nicotinic cholinergic receptors. Acetylcholine molecules connect to nicotine ion-channel receptors present on cell membrane the of muscle cells, enabling the ion channels to open. Calcium ions then enter the muscle cell, kicking off a series of events that eventually result in muscular contraction.
Curare is a kind of neuromuscular relaxant blocker that is non-depolarized in nature. Nondepolarizing muscle relaxants work as competitive agonists, binding to ACh receptors but failing to activate ion channels. As a result, they inhibit ACh from bonding, preventing the development of endplate potentials and inducing muscle paralysis.

In a Nitrogen metabolism study, the following data were obtained over the test period:
Nitrogen consumed 175 grams
Total Fecal N 35 grams
Metabolic Fecal N 10 grams
Total Urinary N 80 grams
Endogenous Urinary N 10 grams
Calculate:
a. Apparent Nitrogen digestibility (%)
b. True Nitrogen digestibility (%)
c. Nitrogen Balance (g)
d. Apparent Nitrogen Retention (%)
Answer:
a. 80%
b. 86%
c. 60 g
d. 34.29%
Explanation:
From the given information:
The apparent nitrogen digestibility (AD) is the ratio of the difference between the consumed nitrogen and fecal nitrogen to the consumed nitrogen.
Mathematically:
[tex]AD = \dfrac{consumed \ nitrogen - fecal \ nitrogen }{consumed \ nitrogen }[/tex]
[tex]AD = \dfrac{175 -35 }{175}[/tex]
AD = 0.8
To percentage, the apparent Nitrogen digestibility = 80%
b. True Nitrogen digestibility is calculated by the formula:
[tex]=\dfrac{consumed \ nitrogen - (fecal \ nitrogen -metabolic \ fecal)}{consumed \ nitrogen}[/tex]
[tex]= \dfrac{175 -(35-10)}{175}[/tex]
[tex]= \dfrac{175 -25}{175}[/tex]
= 0.86
= 86%
c. Nitrogen Balance = consumed Nitrogen - Fecal nitrogen - total uninary
Nitrogen Balance = (175 - 35 - 80) grams
Nitrogen Balance = 60 g
d. Apparent Nitrogen Retention (ANR) is computed as follows:
[tex]ANR = \dfrac{(consumed \ nitrogen-fecal\ nitrogen - total \ uninary )}{nitrogen \consumed }\times 100\%[/tex]
[tex]ANR = \dfrac{(175-35- 80 )}{175 }\times 100\%[/tex]
[tex]ANR = \dfrac{(60 )}{175 }\times 100\%[/tex]
ANR = 34.29%

Scientists have been studying the size of three populations in a river in Ireland. In this ecosystem, pike (a type of big fish), and perch eat snails. The data showed that all three populations were stable. Then the snail population increased suddenly. What will likely happen to the size of the perch population as a result? The size of the perch population will...
Options:
A. Stay the same. The size of it's consumer population did not change, so the number of deaths in the perch population did not change. There will be the same number of births and deaths in the perch population.
B. Decrease. The larger snail population will take more energy storage molecules from the ecosystem, leaving fewer available for the perch population. This will lead to more deaths than births in the perch population.
C. Increase. The larger snail population will provide more energy storage molecules for the perch population, so they will reproduce more. This will lead to more births than deaths in the perch population.
D. Increase. An increase in any population within an ecosystem will lead to an increase in the sizes of all other populations in the ecosystem.
Answer:
C. Increase. The larger snail population will provide more energy storage molecules for the perch population, so they will reproduce more. This will lead to more births than deaths in the perch population.

Consider the factors that affect muscular strength. Read each scenario and then identify each label into the appropriate category based on whether each would result in a stronger or weaker muscle contraction.
a. Potassium accumulate in the sarcoplasm
b. Increase in muscle belly circumference
c. Lesser proportion of motor neurons to muscle fibres
d. Begin contractions with muscle already 50% contraction
e. Lower sarcoplasm pH
f. Increased stimulus frequency.
g. Circular arrangement of muscle fascicles
h. increased requirement.
Answer:
1. Weaker contraction:
a. Potassium accumulate in the sarcoplasm
d. Begin contractions with muscle already 50% contraction
e. Lower sarcoplasm pH
g. Circular arrangement of muscle fascicles
2. Stronger Contraction
b. Increase in muscle belly circumference
c. Lesser proportion of motor neurons to muscle fibres
f. Increased stimulus frequency.
h. increased requirement.
Explanation:
Sarcoplasm refers to the cytoplasm of muscle cells which contains ATP, enzymes, and a variety of ions, including potassium (K+). The negative potential required during muscle activity is produced from the disequilibrium of ionic concentrations (mostly Na+ and K+) across the membrane, which is generated through Na+/K+ ATPase pumps. During contraction, a muscle shortens, and thus its circumference increases. The generation of lactic acid is known to lower pH in the sarcoplasm and thus hinder the force and power development of the muscle fibers. Muscle fascicles can be arranged in concentric rings, it is a common pattern in sphincter muscles that modulate the opening and closing of orifices (which have weak contractions). A motor unit refers to a single efferent neuron and all of the muscle fibers it modulates. Each individual muscle fiber is innervated by one motor neuron, whereas a single motor neuron can innervate many muscle fibers. Finally, higher intensity/frequency are known to induce stronger muscular contractions, but also produce a stronger decline in force and cause more rapid muscle fatigue.

с.
By heating faster but cooling more slowly than land or air
The high specific heat of water help maintain the temperature of the Earth by heating and cooling more slowly than land or air. Thus, the correct option is A.
What is the specific heat of water?The specific heat of an object is the amount of heat which is required to increase or raise the temperature of unit mass of that particular substance through one degree celsius. Specific heat is represented by the symbol 'c'. Its unit in SI system is Joule /(kg °C) and in CGS is cal / (gm °C).
The high specific heat of water helps in regulating the rate at which air changes its temperature, which is why the temperature of the planet change between different seasons is gradual rather than sudden, especially the geographical locations near the ocean.
Therefore, the correct option is A.
