Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

This woman is likely to be hypothyroid.

Explanation:

The woman has symptoms that may be linked to hypothyroidism, which occurs when the thyroid produces little hormone

thyroid. This disease is more common in women than in men and can be very debilitating if not properly cared for.

The doctor who will assist the woman shown in the question above, should ask questions about what she is feeling and see if she has low immunity, weight gain (in addition to fluid retention), feeling cold, mental depression, menstrual irregularities and constipation .

Finally, the doctor must order a blood test to see if the levels of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and thyroid hormone (T4) are adequate and thus to confirm or not the disease.

what are the steps of enzyme activity?

Answers

Four Steps of Enzyme Action
1. The enzyme and the substrate are in the same area. Some situations have more than one substrate molecule that the enzyme will change.

2. The enzyme grabs on to the substrate at a special area called the active site. The combination is called the enzyme/substrate complex. Enzymes are very, very specific and don't just grab on to any molecule. The active site is a specially shaped area of the enzyme that fits around the substrate. The active site is like the grasping claw of the robot on the assembly line. It can only pick up one or two parts.

3. A process called catalysis happens. Catalysis is when the substrate is changed. It could be broken down or combined with another molecule to make something new. It will break or build chemical bonds. When done, you will have the enzyme/products complex.

4. The enzyme releases the product. When the enzyme lets go, it returns to its original shape. It is then ready to work on another molecule of substrate.

What do prokaryotes have in common with eukaryotes?

A. They both have a Golgi apparatus.
B. They both have mitochondria.
C. They both have a nuclear membrane.
D. They both have a liquid cytoplasm.

Answers

Answer:

They both have a liquid cytoplasm.

Explanation:

A liquid cytoplasm is an essential part of a cell, in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It supports the internal components of the cell, and is the site of many vital cellular processes, such as glycolysis (the first part of cellular respiration).

The Golgi apparatus and the mitochondria are membrane-bound organelles that serve a specific purpose in eukaryotic cells. However, prokaryotic cells do not contain any membrane-bound organelles.

Prokaryotes do have a nucleus, like eukaryotes, but unlike in a eukaryotic cell, a prokaryotic nucleus is not surrounded by a nuclear membrane. Instead, it is just confined to a certain area of the cell, called a nucleoid.

Prokaryotes and eukaryotes  both have a nuclear membrane. Option C

What is the commonality?

Prokaryotes and eukaryotes are two large categories of cells with notable variations in their organization and structure. They do, however, have some things in common.

The existence of a nuclear membrane or nuclear envelope is one of the similarities between prokaryotes (such as bacteria) and eukaryotes (such as plants, animals, fungi, and protists). The cell's genetic material, which can be either DNA or RNA, is encased in the nuclear membrane. It divides the cellular components into the nucleus and the remainder.

Answers

It decreased in frequency over time.

Trait B decreased in frequency over time. So, the correct option is A.

What is trait?

A trait is an attribute or characteristic of an organism that is influenced by its genes, according to genetics. Behavioural and physical characteristics, including intelligence and friendliness, can be altered by a combination of hereditary and environmental variables.

A trait is a distinctive quality or attribute that can be acquired by environmental circumstances, genetic inheritance, or both. In biology, traits are observable and quantifiable qualities of an organism, including its physical characteristics, behaviour, and other traits. For instance, physical characteristics like eye colour, height, and hair texture can all be passed on through genetics.

Hence, the correct option is A.

Can someone please help me I am doing a project were I have to wet a cloth and wrap it around a thermometer. Then I have a dry cloth and wrap it around another thermometer. The degrees for the wet one was 40 degrees and the dry one was 35. I had to do it three times and the dry one was still 35 on three trys and the wet one was still 40. now calculate the average. (f degrees - 32) x 5/9= the celsius

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

35 + 35 + 35 + 40 + 40 + 40

(the numbers are there three times due to each trial value. you have to account for each.)

From the math you get 225.

Divide 225 by six due to their being six values

37.5 would be the average without the (f degrees-32) x 5/9

(now following the formula you put ((dont know if you have to follow though)))

37.5 - 32 x 5/9 = 3.055555556 degrees celcius.
