What is a hypothetical explanation for an occurrence that is based on prior knowledge called?

A. One

B. Two

C. Four

D. Eight

There are four different nucleotides in DNA. Nucleotides are monomers of nucleic acids, composed of five- carbon sugars, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. Nucleotides make up both DNA and RNA. They are essential for the recording of an organism's genetic information, which guides the actions of the various cells of the body.

A. They are involved in the secretion of glucose.

B. They are responsible for storing the fat that is found in adipose tissue

C. They are critical in the digestive breakdown of fat

D. They are the foundational element of muscles

Adipocytes are primarily seen in adipose or fat tissue. Their primary function is the storage of fat Adipocytes play a crucial role in maintaining proper energy balance, storing calories in the form of lipids, and mobilizing energy sources in response to stress. They are not involved in the digestion of fat or the secretion of glucose, nor are they the foundational element of muscles

A. Pituitary ,Pancreas

B. Penis,Pons

C. Pancreas ,Penis

D. Prostate, Pancreas

The pituitary and the pancreas are both structures of the endocrine system that produce hormones involved in body regulation, growth reaand development, sexual functioning, and other processes. The penis Is a structure of the reproductive system that responds to hormones, but it does not produce them. The prostate plays a role in converting testosterone (produced in the testicles) into dihydrotestosterone, but does not actively produce hormones. The pons is located in the brain stem and relays nerve signals that coordinate messages between the brain and the body. The pericardium is a structural component of the cardiovascular system.

A. Phenotype

B. Species

C. Phylum

D. Genotype

Phenotype is the physical presentation of an organism's genes. In other words, the phenotype is the physical characteristics of the organism. Phenotype is often contrasted with genotype, the genetic makeup of an organism. The genotype of the organism is not visible in its presentation, although some of the characteristics encoded in the genes have to do with physical presentation. A phylum is a group of classes that are closely related. A species is a group of like organisms that are capable of breeding together and producing similar offspring.

A. The transport of oxygen and other nutrients to the tissues via the cardiovascular system

B. The force exerted by blood against a unit area of the blood vessel walls

C. The branching air passageways inside the lungs

D. The process of breathing in

Circulation is transporting oxygen and other nutrients to the tissues via the cardiovascular system. Choice B refers to blood pressure. Bronchi are the branching airways inside the lungs, while inhalation refers to the process of breathing in.

A. Golgi bodies

B. Rough endoplasmic reticulum

C. Secretory vesicles

D. Endocytic vesicles

Endocytosis is a process by which cells absorb larger molecules or even tiny organisms, such as bacteria, that would not be able to pass through the plasma membrane. Endocytic vesicles containing molecules from the extracellular environment often undergo further processing once they enter the cell.

A. The patient looks like he needs this test.

B. The doctor feels that the patient needs this test.

C. The patient's symptoms and health history suggest that this test will enable the correct diagnosis to help the patient.

D. The patient has excellent insurance that will pay for several tests, and the doctor would like to run as many tests as possible.

A scientific argument should be based on measurable and observable facts such as the patient's current symptoms and health history. Discussing the patient's appearance or the doctor's feelings does not communicate a scientific argument. While insurance may be a factor in most healthcare systems, the status of the patient's Insurance does not communicate a scientific argument that justifies the need for the test

A. Breakage

B. Deletion

C. Insertion

D. Inversion

An inversion mutation is represented in the sequence 1 5 4 3 2 6. An inversion error is a type of mutation where an entire sequence of DNA is reversed. In this case, 2 3 4 5 has been reversed to 5 4 3 2.

Breakage, choice A, in a gene can mess up its function entirely or lead to a translocation of genetic information. Choice B, deletion, is when a section of DNA is omitted or lost.

Choice C, Insertion, is when an extra base pair is added to a DNA sequence. Deletions and insertions can lead to a frameshift effect where entire sequences are thrown off because one nucleotide is wrong.

This could result in coding for the wrong amino acid and non-functioning proteins.

A. 1s

B. 3s

C. 4p

D. 6s

Of these orbitals, the last to fill is 6s.

Orbitals fill in the following order: 1s, 25, 2p. 35, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 55, 4d, 5p. 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p. 7s, 5f, 6d, and 7p. The number is the orbital number, and the letter is the sublevel identification. Sublevels has one orbital and can hold a maximum of two electrons. Sublevel p has three orbitals and can hold a maximum of six electrons. Sublevel d has five orbitals and can hold a maximum of 10 electrons, Sublevel f has seven orbitals and can hold a maximum of 14 electrons.

A. Ability of human beings to keep body weight within normal limits

B. Maintenance of a constant external temperature inside a room

C. Ingestion of enough food to keep hunger pains from developing

D. Tendency of the body to maintain a stable environment

Homeostatic mechanisms are involuntary actions by organs, glands, tissues and cells to maintain balance within the body. If a function is disrupted the body will readjust in an attempt to maintain balance. During periods of starvation the body will break down glucose reserves in order to maintain normal glucose levels.
