Lori is a vegan who believes she gets all the nutrients she needs from her diet. She has never taken supplements, even when she was pregnant. Her baby, Mason, was born full-term, but with a small portion of his spinal cord protruding through his vertebrae, resulting in partial paralysis of his legs. This neural tube defect, called , may have been caused by Lori's insufficient intake of during pregnancy. This micronutrient is necessary for regenerating the active form of .
Answer:
The condition is called "Spinal Bifida", caused by lack of vitamin B12 which helps regenerate the active form of folate.
Explanation:
Because Lori is a vegan, her vitamin B12 intake which comes from animal products such as meat, is not enough. She has to take supplements to make up for the lack of it in her diet.
As stated in the question, this lack of vitamin B12 causes her child to have a defect in his spinal cord called Spinal Bifida that defines a spinal cord or spine that has not fully developed. The vitamin B12 is necessary for regenerating the active form of folate.
I hope this answer helps.

If the object shown has a mass of 80g, what is the density?
Answer:
C. 1.23 g/ml
Explanation:
[tex] Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume} [/tex]
Mass of rock = 80g
Volume of rock = final fluid volume - initial fluid volume
Volume of rock = 265 cm³ - 200 cm³ = 65 cm³
[tex] Density = \frac{80g}{65 cm^3} [/tex]
[tex] Density = 1.23 g/cm^3 [/tex]
1 cm³ = 1 ml
Therefore, density of the object = 1.23 g/ml

explain how animal cells differ from plant cells with respect to the effects of net water movements
Answer:
Terms in this set (4) Animal cells do not have a cell wall, meanwhile plant cells do have a cell wall. As a result, water passes freely in an animal cell due to osmosis. In a hypotonic solution, there is more free water outside the cell than inside the cell.

A scientist investigates two types of cells located in different parts in the
human body. Cell A contains many more mitochondria than Cell B. What is
the best conclusion to make from this observation?
o O
A. Cell A produces more protein than Cell B
O
B. Cell A has a larger vacuole than Cell B.
C. Cell B does less work than Cell A.
O
D. Cell B creates more energy than Cell A.
Answer:
The best explanation regarding the observation of more mitochondria in cell A than in cell B is that cell B does less work than Cell A.
Explanation:
Mitochondria are the organelles in charge of energy production in the cell. Tissues with high energy demand, such as striated muscle, have cells with a large amount of mitochondria, to satisfy this requirement.
According to the observation, if the cell B has less work than the A cell, its energetic demand is lower and the consequence is a smaller quantity of mitochondria in its cytoplasm.
The other options are not correct because:
A and B. The fact that the A cell has more mitochondria is not related to protein synthesis or having larger vacuoles.
D. Cell B does not produce more energy than Cell B because it has fewer mitochondria.
Which of the following best describes the flow of energy in the Everglades food web shown below? (4 points)
Diagram for an everglades food web. The food web contains the following organisms: American alligator, egret, raccoon, carp, Key deer, insects, Southern leopard frog, mangrove, and sawgrass. Mangrove is at the bottom of the food web, with arrows pointing to Key deer and insects. Sawgrass is also at the bottom of the web, with an arrow pointing to insects. Key deer, insects and Southern leopard frog are on the next level up. The Key deer has an arrow pointing to American alligator. The insects point to egret, carp, and Southern leopard frog. The Southern leopard frog points to the American alligator and the raccoon. The egret, carp and raccoon all points upward toward the American alligator. The carp also points to the egret. The American alligator is at the top of the food web.
a
Egret → insects → mangrove → key deer → American alligator; about 90 percent of the energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level.
b
Mangrove → insects → carp → American alligator; about 90 percent of the energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level.
c
Sawgrass → insects → Southern leopard frog → raccoon → American alligator; about 10 percent of the energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level.
d
American alligator → carp → insects → mangrove; about 10 percent of the energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
For B it simply had the table in order of words.
Energy will flow in this order . Sawgrass → insects → Southern leopard frog → raccoon → American alligator; about 10 percent of the energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level. Hence, option B is correct.
What is a food web?All the food networks in a single ecosystem make up a food web. Each organism in an ecosystem is a link in a number of food chains. Energy and nutrients can go along different food chains as they move through the ecosystem.
The trophic levels are divisions into which organisms in food webs are categorized. These levels can be roughly categorized as producers (first trophic level), consumers, and decomposers (last trophic level).
Only 10 percent of energy transfers to the next level. Hence, option B is correct.

Can you see radio waves? How does their position on the electromagnetic spectrum demonstrate this?
Explanation:
no, we can not see radio waves. radio waves have the longest wavelength out of all the waves on the electromagnetic spectrum. we can only see visible light, which is towards the middle of the spectrum. the waves below or above visible light on the spectrum have wavelengths that are too long or short for the human eye to detect.

What is Coastal regions?A significant and expanding share of the world's population lives in coastal regions, which are experiencing environmental deterioration. In underdeveloped nations, the issue is very severe.
Although there are many different causes of environmental decline, population issues are a major contributing element. The majority of the world's population, about 3 billion people, now reside 200 kilometers or less from a shoreline.
That number is probably going to quadruple by 2025. Numerous economic advantages have resulted from the high population density in coastal regions, including enhanced transit infrastructure, urban and industrial growth, and increased revenue.

Which statement best describes why the population growth rate slows as population size approaches carrying capacity?
O reproduction increases
O predation rates decrease
evolution of traits decreases
competition for resources increases
Answer:
competition for resources increases
Explanation:
When an ecosystem reaches its carrying capacity, competition for scarce resources become more intense.
The result of this is that species will either begin to die, or migrate away from the ecosystem leading to a decrease in population growth

Explanation:
Protein synthesis is the process in which cells make proteins. It occurs in two stages: transcription and translation. Transcription is the transfer of genetic instructions in DNA to mRNA in the nucleus. ... After the mRNA is processed, it carries the instructions to a ribosome in the cytoplasm.
Answer:
HORMONES are chemical-signaling molecules, usually small proteins or steroids, secreted by endocrine cells that act to control or regulate specific physiological processes, including growth, development, metabolism, and reproduction. For example, insulin is a protein hormone that helps to regulate the blood glucose level.
ENZYMES which are produced by living cells, are catalysts in biochemical reactions (like digestion) and are usually complex or conjugated proteins. Each enzyme is specific for the substrate (a reactant that binds to an enzyme) it acts on. The enzyme may help in breakdown, rearrangement, or synthesis reactions.

Answer:
Carbon cycle is very important for the plants and animals that are divided into 4 steps and these steps are:
1.The carbon enters the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide.Example: respiration and combustion.
2.The carbon dioxide present in the environment is used by the plants and plants expel oxygen after the process of photosynthesis.
3. Animals present in the environment eat the plants and pass on the carbon in the food chain. They exhale carbon dioxide into the environment.The plants and the animals die after a certain period of time.
4. The body of plants and animals is consumed by decomposes and the carbon is returned into the atmosphere in the form of carbon dioxide else fossils of plants and animals are formed which contains carbon.
