what is Up-regulation

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The process by which a cell increases its response to a substance or signal from outside the cell to carry out a specific function.

I Hope this will help you if not so sorry :)

Answer 2
In the biological context of organisms' production of gene products, downregulation is the process by which a cell decreases the quantity of a cellular component, such as RNA or protein, in response to an external stimulus. The complementary process that involves increases of such components is called upregulation.

help pls answer in paragraph form :)

Answers

Answer:

Molecules naturally disperse from areas of higher concentration to lower concentration.

As oxygen-rich (and carbon dioxide-poor) blood travels by a cell the oxygen diffuses through the cell membrane to the area of lower concentration inside the cell. It can do this easily because the oxygen molecule (O2) is very small and has no charge or polarity. The oxygen is used up rapidly by mitochondria. This rapid consumption causes oxygen to constantly move into the cell from the blood.

The mitochondria creates carbon dioxide (CO2) as a waste product of cellular respiration (the process that makes energy for your body). Because the CO2 is of a higher concentration in the cell than in the blood passing by, this gas continually diffuses out of the cell. It too is small and uncharged so it can pass through cell membranes easily.

These movements require no energy (in the form of ATP) on behalf of the cell.

Answers

Answer:

Biotechnology is the use of biological techniques and engineered organisms to make products or plants and animals that have desired traits.

Explanation:

People have used biotechnology processes, such as selectively breeding animals and fermentation, for thousands of years. Late 19th and early 20th century discoveries of how microorganisms carry out commercially useful processes and how they cause disease led to the commercial production of vaccines and antibiotics. Improved methods for animal breeding have also resulted from these efforts. Scientists in the San Francisco Bay Area took a giant step forward with the discovery and development of recombinant DNA techniques in the 1970s. The field of biotechnology continues to accelerate with new discoveries and new applications expected to benefit the economy throughout the 21st century.

In its broadest definition, biotechnology is the application of biological techniques and engineered organisms to make products or modify plants and animals to carry desired traits. This definition also extends to the use of various human cells and other body parts to produce desirable products. Bioindustry refers to the cluster of companies that produce engineered biological products and their supporting businesses. Biotechnology refers to the use of the biological sciences (such as gene manipulation), often in combination with other sciences (such as materials sciences, nanotechnology, and computer software), to discover, evaluate and develop products for bioindustry. Biotechnology products have made it easier to detect and diagnose illnesses. Many of these new techniques are easier to use and some, such as pregnancy testing, can even be used at home. More than 400 clinical diagnostic devices using biotechnology products are in use today. The most important are screening techniques to protect the blood supply against contamination by AIDS and the hepatitis B and C viruses.

Applications of Genetic Engineering

Genetic engineering means the manipulation of organisms to make useful products and it has broad applications.

The cells were kept in a dilute salt solution. They were then transferred to distilled
water.
Explain what will happen to each of these two cells when they are placed into distilled water.

Answers

When plant cells are placed in salt solution their appearance is different to when they are placed in distilled water. ... Therefore, water moves out of the cell across the partially permeable membrane by osmosis and the cell becomes flaccid as the cell membrane peels away from the cell wall

When cells are put in a dilute salt solution, water move out of the cell and into the salt solution by osmosis. This happens because the solution is more concentrated than the cell (meaning the solution has less water molecules than the cell) and by definition, osmosis is the movement of water molecules from a region of high concentration (of water molecules) to a region of lower concentration (of water molecules). When the cells lose water, the become flaccid or plasmolysed.

When these cells are placed in distilled water (pure water with no dissolved salts in it), water molecules from the distilled water move into the cell by osmosis. This can lead to cell lysis.

Containers of ice cream are sold by volume, not by weight. Some ice cream manufacturers pump air into the ice cream before packaging it. Why does this practice make the ice cream more expensive to the consumer?

Answers

Ok so say a pint of ice cream is 7 dollars. And we have two different brands. Same price, same flavor, same package. One pint is filled to the top and is very dense. The other is filled an inch away from the top and is light and easy to scoop through. In processing they both were filled to the top but the lighter ice cream had air pumped into it. This air settles at the top as the air is less dense than the ice cream and still gets trapped in the ice cream as well. This costs the company nearly nothing to do and nearly doubled the mass of the ice cream in production. Leading to them saving a lot of money while charging the same price. Technically this brand is more expensive because you are getting less than what you are paying for.

Answers

Answer: Enzymes are incredibly versatile, each catalyzing a huge number of biological reactions.

An enzyme behaves like both a heterogeneous and a homogeneous catalyst.

Explanation:

Enzymes are the biological catalyst they speed up the rate of the reaction without being consumed in the reaction. It is versatile in terms of catalyzing huge number of biological reactions but every enzyme has a specificity for a reactant or substrate. An enzyme can work as both homogenous and heterogenous catalyst. Homogenous catalyst is the one which is similar in properties as that of the substrate and heterogenous catalyst is the one which is dissimilar in properties as that of the substrate.

The correct characteristics is that of the action of an enzyme, enzymes are enormously efficient, much more so than synthetic catalysts.

Uses of enzymes

Enzymes are biological substances that has the ability to increase the rate of a chemical reaction without changing at the end of the reaction.

The features of an enzyme include:

They possess great catalytic power and a small amount can easily catalyze a chemical reaction.

They speed up reactions but remain unchanged during the whole reaction.

There are synthetic and biological enzymes. The biological enzymes are enormously efficient, much more so than synthetic catalysts because biological enzymes has more affinity for its substrate than the synthetic enzymes.

What is Anaerobic respiration?

Anaerobic respiration is defined as respiration using an electron acceptor other than molecular oxygen where oxygen is not the final electron acceptor, the process still uses the respiratory electron transport chain.

Anaerobic respiration is described as the process in which there is incomplete oxidation of glucose in the absence of oxygen which is commonly known as fermentation.

One type of fermentation is alcohol fermentation where the pyruvate is decarboxylated [tex](CO_2 leaves)[/tex] to form acetaldehyde. Hydrogen atoms from NADH+. H+ are then used to help convert acetaldehyde to ethanol. NAD+ results.

HELP!!!! FAST!!!! 20 POINTS!!!! You are a traffic accident investigator. You have arrived at the scene of an accident. Two trucks of equal
mass (3,000 kg each) were involved in a rear-end accident at a stop sign. Here is what you know:
• Truck 1 started from rest at the top of a 22-meter hill and coasted toward the intersection.
.
Truck 2 was on a flat stretch of road at the bottom of the hill directly in front of Truck 1.
At the bottom of the hill, Truck 1 was going 20 m/s; Truck 2 was going 35 m/s.
.
There were no skid marks left by Truck 2. The collision occurred at the stop sign where Truck 2 had
stopped
• After the collision, both trucks moved together in the same direction at 10 m/s before slowly rolling
to a stop.
You must now push Truck 2, using 1,000 N of force, 8 meters off to the side of the road so no one
else gets hurt.

A population of 1000 birds exists on a small Pacific island. Some of the birds are yellow, a characteristic determined by a recessive allele. The others are green, a characteristic determined by a dominant allele. A hurricane on the island kills most of the birds from this population. Only ten remain, and those birds all have yellow feathers. Below are several statements about this hypothetical situation. Please write 1-6 and next to each number write T if true of Fif false.
1) Assuming that no new birds come to the island and no mutations occur, future generations of this population will contain both green and yellow birds.
2) Assuming that no new birds come to the island and no mutations occur, future generations of this population will contain only yellow birds.

2) True

3) False

4) True

Explanation:

(3 and/or 4 may be wrong, but 1 and 2, i'm positive they aren't0

1 is false and 2 is true because recessive alleles x recessive alleles = reccessive alleles, and since yellow is recessive, and you have no green birds, there is no possibility of having green birds without at least one green bird parent.

(I hope that makes sense)

I believe 4 is true because Directional selection occurs when a single phenotype is favored, which is what happens here.

The student wants to see the cells at a greater magnification. Describe the steps that she should take.

Answers

Microscope. Use the dial on the microscope to enlarge or reduce the magnification

Gradually turn the crude focus knob until you can see the cells. Turn the fine focus knob slowly until the cells are in focus and visible.

What is magnification?

Magnification is the process of enlarging something's apparent size rather than its physical size.

This enlargement is measured by a calculated number known as "magnification." When this number is less than one, it refers to a size reduction, also known as minification or de-magnification.

The magnification of a compound microscope is the product of both lenses, so if the microscope has a 10x eyepiece and a 40x objective, the total magnification is 400x. Magnification is defined as the ratio of the image size to the object size.

The student should use the adjustment knobs to bring the sample back into focus after selecting the x40 or x10 objective lens.

Thus, these steps are necessary to see cell's magnification.

Answers

Answer:

Hello. None of the answer options is correct, as the new arrivals delay adaptation to new food plants.

Explanation:

The arrival of new birds increases competition for food. This makes the birds that have just arrived have some difficulty in accessing food, as they will have to compete with the birds that are already on the island. This makes the novice birds look for food plants they already know, which delays their adaptation to feeding new plants they do not know.
