<span>siRNA guides the RISC that cleaves the target mRNA. siRNA binds to its target mRNA due to its complementarity.</span> <span>Small interfering RNA (siRNA) has a function in RNA interference, which means it causes gene silencing through repression of transcription. siRNA together with some proteins (like Argonaute) form the RISC. When siRNA recognize the target mRNA it causes degradation of mRNA and thus silencing the gene that encodes that mRNA.</span>
Answer:
a. 8.1 milligrams
b. 40.07 hours
c. 8.859 milligrams
Explanation:
If a person takes a prescribed dose of 10 milligrams of Valium, the amount of Valium in that person's bloodstream at any time can be modeled by
Where A(t) = amount of Valium remaining in the blood after t hours
t = time or duration after the drug is taken
a. we have to calculate the amount of drug remaining in the bloodstream after 12 hours
= 10×0.81253
= 8.1 milligrams
b. In this part we have to calculate the time when A(t) = 5 milligrams
0.5 =
Now we take natural log on both the sides of the equation.
ln(0.5) = ln(
-0.69314 = -0.0173t
t =
t = 40.0658
≈ 40.07 hours
c. In this part we have to calculate the rate, by which amount of drug will decay in the bloodstream after 7 hours.
= 10×0.8859
= 8.859 milligrams
Gatrectomy is a procedure that involves removal of a part of the stomach (partial gastrectomy) or the whole stomach (total gastrectomy). It is carried out to removal stomach cancer or stomach perforations. In this case, the nurses initial action will be first not to tamper with fresh surgery tubes and then call the primary health care provider for blood draining from the NG tube after the procedure (gastrectomy)
Option A Base pair substitution
