g Type I diabetes is caused by destruction of the beta cells of the pancreas, the cells that produce insulin. In most cases, the beta cells are destroyed by an immune response. Both genetic and environmental factors are involved in triggering the immune response. A. The immune system usually does NOT destroy the beta cells. If the cells are destroyed, it is a failure of (memory) (specificity)(tolerance) (any one of these) (none of these).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

it is a failure of tolerance (self-tolerance) and specificity (recognition)

Explanation:

Type 1 diabetes is a chronic disease caused by the selective destruction of β cells that are involved in the production of insulin in the pancreas. Type 1 diabetes can be classified into two types: Type 1A diabetes (the immune form of the disease) and Type 1B diabetes (the non-immune form of the disease). Type 1A diabetes is considered an autoimmune disorder where immune responses against pathogens suffer a failure of tolerance to antigens in the β-cells of the pancreatic islets. Thus, Type 1A diabetes is characterized by the process of recognition of β-cell antigens (autoantigens) by the immune system. This disease is often caused by genetic factors associated with mutations in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class II region located on chromosome 6.

how contractile vacuole function in osmoregulation​

Answers

Answer: A contractile vacuole (CV) is an organelle, or sub-cellular structure, that is involved in osmoregulation and waste removal. ... In freshwater environments, the concentration of solutes inside the cell is higher than outside the cell. Under these conditions, water flows from the environment into the cell by osmosis. The contractile vacuole (CV) complex is an osmoregulatory organelle of free-living amoebae and protozoa, which controls the intracellular water balance by accumulating and expelling excess water out of the cell, allowing cells to survive under hypotonic stress as in pond water.

In order to perceive forms and patterns from incoming stimuli, individuals utilize____.


A. feature analysis

Answers

Group of answer choices.

A. feature analysis

B. change blindness

C. selective attention

D. inattentional blindness

Answer:

A. feature analysis

Explanation:

Stimulus can be defined as an obvious change in either the chemical or physical structure of an organism' environment (either external or internal). Thus, all living organisms (both animals and plants) respond to changes in their environment and consequently, an appropriate response or reaction is made. Also, stimulus arising from within the organism is known as internal stimulus while those from its environment are known as the external stimulus.

In organisms, the specialized cells that detect stimulus are generally known as sensory receptors while a group of these receptors is referred to as sense organ. Therefore, the senses are necessary for behavior because stimuli must be sensed in order to respond.

Stimulus control can be defined as a phenomenon that arises when a living organism responds or behaves in the presence of a stimulus and in another way in the absence of a stimulus.

For example, opening the door of a microwave oven as soon as its timer beeps.

Example II; When your body touches a hot object, you quickly move away and feel some pain subsequently.

In order to perceive forms and patterns from incoming stimuli, individuals utilize feature analysis of the signals from the environment.

List an organism found in each of the described environmental conditions that would be predicted to exhibit adaptive responses to low partial pressure of oxygen.

Answers

Answer:

Enhanced ventilatory abilities, enhanced percentage removal of O2 from the ventilatory stream and large gill surface areas.

Explanation:

Enhanced ventilatory abilities, enhanced percentage removal of O2 from the ventilatory stream and large gill surface areas are the three other environmental conditions besides high elevation that might result in adaptation to hypoxia. These abilities will increase the resistance to lower oxygen levels in the surrounding environment. Fish is the organism which used these types of adaptation for their survival in the surrounding of low oxygen levels.

The subject’s relative called for an ambulance. On arrival at a local hospital’s Emergency Department, in which the subject regained consciousness but could not recall the event, a x-ray revealed a fractured skull. The subject’s consciousness level at this point was deteriorating and after further tests a subdural hematoma was diagnosed, which was evacuated under general anesthesia. Postoperative recovery was uneventful and progressing well until day four, when the patient developed acute dyspnea (shortness of breath) at rest during visiting time. An emergency lung scan was performed that confirmed a diagnosis of pulmonary embolism. The study subject was anticoagulated and was eventually discharged from the hospital”

Assume that gene A controls the conversion of a white pigment, P0 into another white pigment, P1 the dominant allele A specifies an enzyme necessary for this conversion, and the recessive allele a specifies a defective enzyme without biochemical function. Gene B controls the conversion of the white pigment, P1 into a pink pigment, P2 the dominant allele, B, produces the enzyme necessary for this conversion, and the recessive allele, b, produces a defective enzyme. The dominant allele, C, of the third gene specifies an enzyme that converts the pink pigment, P2 into a red pigment, P3 its recessive allele, c, produces an altered enzyme that cannot carry out this conversion. The dominant allele, D, of a fourth gene produces a polypeptide that completely inhibits the function of enzyme C; that is, it blocks the reaction P2-P3 Its recessive allele, d, produces a defective polypeptide that does not block this reaction. Assume that flower color is determined solely by these four genes and that they assort independently. In the F2 of a cross between plants of the genotype AA bb CC DD and plants of the genotype aa BB cc dd, what proportion of the plants will have (a) red flowers? (b) pink flowers? (c) white flowers?

Answers

Answer:

Red = 27/256Pink = 117/256White = 112/256

Explanation:

Available data:

Four diallelic genes: A, B, C, DAA and Aa allows the conversion of P0 tp P1, while aa does notBB and Bb allows the conversion of P1 tp P2, while bb does notCC and Cc allows the conversion of P2 tp P3, while cc does notDD and Dd inhibit the action of allele C (P2 to P3), while dd does not

This is:

In the presence of the dominant alleles A, B, and C, the three might occur:

Po (white 0) ----> P1 (White 1) ----> P2 (Pink)----> P3 (Red)

                        A                              B                         C

In the presence of the recessive alleles a, b or c, the three reactions or some of them might not occur ( the X represents the inhibition of the reaction):

Po (white 0) --X--> P1 (White 1) --X--> P2 (Pink)--X--> P3 (Red)

                        a                             b                        c  

In the presence of allele D, the last reaction is not possible, because D inhibits the action of C

P2 (Pink) --X-->P3 (Red)

            C  +  D                                                                                

So, in order to get Red flowers we must have the next genotype: A-B-C-dd (The three reactions can occur, and D must be absent)To get Pink flowers  we must have the next genotypes: A-B-C-D- (D Inhibits C, hence it inhibits the third reaction) or A-B-ccD- or A-B-ccdd (cc does not allow the third reaction to happen, independently of the D gene presenceTo get White flowers  we must have the next genotypes: aaB-C-D-,aabbC-D-, aaB-ccD-, aabbccD-, aabbccdd, aaB-C-dd, aaB-ccdd, aabbC-dd, A-bbC-D-, A-bbccD-, A-bbC-dd, A-bbccdd (aa must be present to get a white0 flower, or bb must be present to get a white1 flower)  

In the proposed problem, we have that the parental are AAbbCCDD and aaBBccdd, so we can tell that the whole F1 progeny will be heterozygous for the four genes, this is AaBbCcDd.

Knowing that these four genes assort independently, then we can infer that the F2 will have the next genotypic proportions for each gene:

AA + Aa=3/4aa= 1/4BB + bb= 3/4bb = 1/4CC + Cc = 3/4cc= 1/4DD + Dd =3/4dd= 1/4

So, to get each of the mentioned genotypes for each trait, we must multiply their respective genotypic proportions, like this:  

Red: A- x B- x C- x dd: 3/4 x 3/4 x 3/4 x 1/4 = 27/256Pink: A- x B- x C- x D-: 3/4 x 3/4 x 3/4 x 3/4 = 81/256

        A- x B- x cc x D-: 3/4 x 3/ x 1/4 x 3/4 = 27/256  

        A- x B- x cc x dd: 3/4 x 3/4 x 1/4 x 1/4= 9/256

        By summing these proportions, we can get the proportion of all the pink flowers: 27/256 + 81/256 + 27/256 + 9/256= 117/256

White: To get the proportion of white flowers, you can repeat the same multiplications as before for each possible white genotype and then sum the results, as we did for pink flowers. Or you can extract from the total number of flowers (256), the amounts of red and pink flowers (27 and 117). This is: 256 - (27 + 117) = 112.

Then 112/256 is the proportion of white flowers.

Experimental Group

Answers

Answer:

Independent variable: type of shoe

Dependent Variable: running speed

TWO controlled variables: same running distance, same runner

Control Group: running with the regular Nike shoes

Experimental Group: running with the new Nikespeed shoes.

Explanation:

According to this question, Molly wants to test her new NikeSpeed running shoes that claim to make her run faster than her regular Nike shoes.

- Independent variable is the variable of an experiment that is subjected to change or manipulation by the experimenter. In this experiment, the independent variable is the SHOES that Molly wants to test.

- Dependent variable is the measured variable that responds to the change made to the independent variable. In this case, the dependent variable is the RUNNING SPEED.

- Control variable is the variable that must be kept unchanged throughout the experiment in order not to change the experiment outcome. The control variables include; SAME RUNNING DISTANCE, SAME RUNNER (MOLLY) etc.

- Control group is the group of an experiment that does not receive the experimental treatment. In this case, it is RUNNING WITH THE REGULAR NIKE SHOES.

- Experimental group is the group that receives the experimental treatment. In this case, it is RUNNING WITH THE NEW NIKE-SPEED SHOES.

Why insulators would be useful in this context

Answers

Answer:

Insulator sequences serve as a boundary between two genes. In this case, the insulator sequence is a boundary between the organism's normal DNA and the inserted foreign DNA. The insulator will protect the inserted DNA from any regulatory effects that may come from the neighboring gene.

why is it so important for animals to keep the concentration of their body fluids constant​

Answers

Answer:

A balance of bodily fluids will prevent the development of diseases, the deterioration of body organs, and death of animals.

Explanation:

Water, blood, saliva, sweat and other body fluids should be kept constant and balanced through homeostasis because the sharp rise and fall of these fluids will prevent the organs of the body from operating optimally and this can lead to the development of diseases and consequent death. For example, water is a vital fluid. Too much of water in the system can lead to diseases like Edema where the legs begins to swell because there is no way of letting out body fluids from the body.

Too little water in the body can lead to dehydration and the increase in blood pressure because of the excessive concentration of solutes. The digestive and urinary systems have  mechanisms to keep this fluid under control.
