Calculate the acceleration of a boat that has been cruising
at 15 m/s but speeds up to 45 m/s in about 6 seconds. Don’t forget your units, m/s2.
In order to calculate the acceleration of the boat we first
have to identify the suited formula for acceleration in this scenario.
Hence, a = vf – vi / t.
Vi = 15 m/s
Vf = 45 m/s
T = 6 seconds
Solution:
A = 45 m/s – 15m/s / 6s
A = 5m/s^2
Parathyroid hormones (PTH) increases the Ca++ concentration and slightly decreases phosphate ion concentration in the blood.
When Parathyroid hormone increases, the body release more calcium from bones into blood which lead to the increase in calcium concentration in the blood.
The parathyroid hormone increase in the other hand led to slightl
y decrease in phosphate ions since it reduces the reabsorption of phosphate from proximal tubule of the kidney
Answer:
b. Become a dwarf
Explanation:
A decreased secretion of growth hormone can result in pituitary dwarfism which then decreases the rate of cell division of cartilage cells in the epiphyseal plate
Answer:
1. Nucleoid
2. Plasmid
Explanation:
Prokaryotes are groups of organisms characterized by the lack of a membrane-bound nucleus in their cell. Due to this, the genetic material (DNA) of prokaryotes are found naked i.e. not housed. The DNA of a prokaryote is arranged in a single coiled chromosome located in a region of the cell called NUCLEOID.
However, some prokaryotes e.g. bacteria carry genes on extrachromosomal pieces of circular DNA called PLASMID. Plasmids carry certain genes like antibiotic resistance genes.
False
The genotype of an organism does not constitute its observable characteristics but rather its phenotype. A genotype of an organism is the genetic makeup of an organism while the phenotype is the visible characteristics.
It is, however, significant to understand that the phenotype of an organism is as a result of the interaction between the genotype and the environment.
