Answer:

birds have feathers, reptiles have scales

birds are endothermic, while reptiles are generally ectothermic

Explanation:

The main difference between birds and reptiles  is that birds have feathers on their body while on the other hand, reptiles ahve dry skin and have scales. Reptiles are ectotherms, while birds are endotherms. An ectotherm relies on its external environment to regulate the temperature of its body whereas Endotherms are able to regulate their body temperatures by producing heat within the body.

At her initial evaluation, Ms. Jones reports that she has lost 25 pounds over the past eight months despite an increase in her appetite. She complains of extreme fatigue, heart palpitations and irritability. Clinical observations reveal a protrusion of the eyeballs and hand tremors. You suspect that she might have:

a. hypothyroidism
b. diabetes mellitus
c. hypopituitarism
d. hyperthyroidism

Answers

Answer:

d. hyperthyroidism

Explanation:

Hyperthyroidism is a condition that occurs when the thyroid gland in our body secretes too much of the thyroxin hormone. Thyroid gland is a butterfly shaped gland that is located in our neck and it produces the hormone called thyroxin. Excess production of thyroxin leads to a condition named hyperthyroidism.

A person's metabolism increases when he or she is suffering from hyperthyroidism. One's weight is lost but the appetite increases. Other symptoms are extreme fatigue, irritability, heart palpitations, sweating and puffy eyes.

Thus in the context, Ms. Jones is suspect to have hyperthyroidism as she she is showing all the above symptoms.

What is the process in the cell can be disturbed by the destruction of the mitochondria?


a.

b.
photosynthesis

c.
oxidation of substances organic

d.
crossing-ove

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - C. oxidation of substances organic.

Explanation:

The major function of the mitochondria is to perform cellular respiration and produce energy in the form of ATP by oxidating organic molecules. All the process requires energy to be processed, however, the main and primary process that would disturb if by the destruction of the mitochondria occur which is the oxidation of glucose to convert it to pyruvic acid to generate energy.

The Krebs cycle that takes place in mitochondria and performs oxidation of organic molecules will also be disturbed and there will be no energy for any process.

Answers

Answer:

C. Distinguished by eight bands of cilia.

Explanation:

Ctenophora, also known as comb jellies, represents a phylum of transparent, mostly pelagic, invertebrate marine animals that live around the world. This group characterized by eight rows of cilia (singular cilium) that are used for locomotion. Cilia are organelles and/or structures that extend from the surface of eukaryotic cells, which can be used to move the surrounding fluid, resulting in cell movement. This phylum is divided into two classes: Tentaculata (with tentacles) and Nuda (without tentacles).

Explanation:

Answer:

An autotroph is an organism that can produce its own food using light, water, carbon dioxide, or other chemicals. Because autotrophs produce their own food, they are sometimes called producers.Organisms are characterized into two broad categories based upon how they obtain their energy and nutrients: autotrophs and heterotrophs. Autotrophs are known as producers because they are able to make their own food from raw materials and energy. Examples include plants, algae, and some types of bacteria.

How does carbon dioxide travel in blood via dissolved form

Answers

Answer:

carbon dioxide is more soluble in water than oxygen and hence is mostly transported in the dissolved form in our blood.

Carbon dioxide can be transported through the blood via three methods. It is dissolved directly in the blood, bound to plasma proteins or hemoglobin, or converted into bicarbonate.

The majority of carbon dioxide is transported as part of the bicarbonate system.

Two different enzymes catalyze the same reaction and both exhibit the same Vmax. When Enzyme A was run with a 40 uM substrate, the initial rate (Vo) was 10 uM/min, and when g it was run with a 4 mM substrate, the Vo was 20 uM/min. Estimate the approximate Vmax and Km of Enzyme A. When Enzyme B was run with 80 uM substrate, the initial rate (Vo) was 10 uM per minute. Estimate the Km of Enzyme B.

Answers

Answer:

a) k_m = 4.08 uM

  V_{max} = 20.07 uM/min

b) k_m = 8.16 uM

Explanation:

Given that:

For Enzyme A:

the substrate concentration [S] = 40 uM

the initial velocity rate v = 10 uM/min

when it was 4mM, v = 20 uM/min

i.e.

at 4mM = 4000 uM;

Using Michealis -menten equation;

when v = 10

[tex]V = \dfrac{V_{max}[S]}{k_m+[S]}[/tex]

[tex]10 = \dfrac{V_{max}\times 40}{k_m + 40}[/tex]

[tex]10 (k_m + 40) = V_{max}40[/tex]

[tex]40V_{max} -10k_m = 400 --- (1)[/tex]

when v= 20

[tex]20= \dfrac{V_{max}\times 4000}{k_m + 4000}[/tex]

[tex]20 (k_m + 4000) = V_{max}4000[/tex]

[tex]4000V_{max} -20k_m = 8000 --- (2)[/tex]

equating equation (1) and (2):

[tex]40V_{max} -10k_m = 400 --- (1)[/tex]

[tex]4000V_{max} -20k_m = 8000 --- (2)[/tex]

let multiply equation (1) by 100 and equation (2) by 1

4000V_{max} - 1000K_m = 4000

4000V_{max} - 20 k_m = 8000    

  0        -980k_m = 4000

k_m = 4000/-980

k_m = 4.08 uM

replacing the value of k_m into equation (1)

40{V_max } - 10(4.08) = 400

40{V_max } - 40.8 = 400

40{V_max } = 400 +  40.8

40{V_max } = 440.8

V_{max} = 440.8/40

V_{max} = 11.02 uM/min

b)

Since V_{max} of A ie equivalent to that of B; then:

V_{max} of B = 11.02 uM/min

Here;

[S] = 80  uM

V = 10 uM/min

[tex]10 = \dfrac{11.02 \times 80}{k_m + 80 }[/tex]

10(k_m +80) = 881.6

10k_m = 881.6  - 800

10k_m = 81.6

k_m = 81.6/10

k_m = 8.16 uM
