Large intestine
Correct Answer
A. DuodenumExplanation
The duodenum is the first part of the small intestine and is responsible for the majority of digestion. It receives partially digested food from the stomach and continues the process of breaking down nutrients with the help of digestive enzymes from the pancreas and bile from the liver. The duodenum is lined with specialized cells that absorb nutrients into the bloodstream, allowing them to be transported to the rest of the body. The jejunum and ileum, which are also parts of the small intestine, primarily absorb nutrients rather than digest them. The large intestine, on the other hand, mainly absorbs water and electrolytes and is not involved in significant digestion.Rate this question:

Frederick Griffith
-
Option 4
Correct Answer
A. Meselson and StahlExplanation
Meselson and Stahl supported the Semiconservative model. This model explains the process of DNA replication, stating that each new DNA molecule consists of one parental strand and one newly synthesized strand. Meselson and Stahl conducted an experiment using isotopes to prove this model. They labeled the parental DNA with a heavy isotope of nitrogen and then allowed it to replicate in a medium with a lighter isotope. By analyzing the density of the DNA, they concluded that the replicated DNA was a mixture of both heavy and light strands, supporting the Semiconservative model.Rate this question:

Meselson and Stahl grew bacteria in a medium containing "heavy" nitrogen (15N) and then transferred them to a medium containing 14N. Which of the results in the Right figure would be expected after one round of DNA replication in the presence of 14N?
-
A
-
B
-
C
-
D
-
E
Correct Answer
A. DExplanation
After one round of DNA replication in the presence of 14N, the expected result would be a hybrid DNA molecule consisting of one heavy strand (15N) and one light strand (14N). This is because during DNA replication, the parental DNA strands separate and each serves as a template for the synthesis of a new complementary strand. In this case, since the bacteria were initially grown in a medium containing heavy nitrogen (15N) and then transferred to a medium containing 14N, the newly synthesized DNA strand would be composed of 14N. Therefore, the correct answer is D, which shows a hybrid DNA molecule with one heavy strand and one light strand.Rate this question:

-
Lagging Strand
-
Leading Strand
-
Okazaki Fragment
-
Option 4
Correct Answer
A. Leading StrandExplanation
DNA polymerase can produce continuous strands called the leading strand. The leading strand is synthesized in the 5' to 3' direction, which is the same direction as the replication fork is moving. This allows DNA polymerase to continuously add nucleotides to the growing strand without interruption. In contrast, the lagging strand is synthesized in the opposite direction, requiring the formation of short Okazaki fragments that are later joined together. Therefore, the leading strand is the correct answer.Rate this question:

DNA polymerise can product fragmented strand
-
Lagging Strand
-
Leading Strand
-
Option 3
-
Option 4
Correct Answer
A. Lagging StrandExplanation
DNA polymerase is an enzyme responsible for synthesizing new DNA strands during DNA replication. The lagging strand is the strand that is synthesized discontinuously in small fragments called Okazaki fragments. This is because the DNA polymerase can only add nucleotides in the 5' to 3' direction, and since the two DNA strands are antiparallel, the lagging strand must be synthesized in short fragments away from the replication fork. In contrast, the leading strand is synthesized continuously in the 5' to 3' direction towards the replication fork. Therefore, the correct answer is the lagging strand.Rate this question:

Which of the following affecteced if we remove the gall bladder?
-
Lipid
-
Protein
-
Carbohydrate
-
Option 4
Correct Answer
A. LipidExplanation
The gallbladder is responsible for storing and releasing bile, which aids in the digestion and absorption of fats. Therefore, if the gallbladder is removed, the digestion and absorption of lipids (fats) would be affected. This is because bile helps in the emulsification of fats, breaking them down into smaller droplets that can be easily digested by enzymes. Without the gallbladder, there would be a decrease in the efficiency of fat digestion, leading to potential malabsorption and digestive issues related to lipid metabolism.Rate this question:

-
Option 4
Correct Answer
A. liver then muscle then adipose tissueExplanation
When insulin levels increase, it first promotes glucose storage in the liver. This is because the liver acts as a storage site for excess glucose, which can be released when needed. After the liver, insulin promotes glucose storage in muscle cells. This is important for providing energy during physical activity. Finally, insulin promotes glucose storage in adipose tissue (fat cells). This helps to regulate blood sugar levels and store excess glucose as fat for future energy needs. Therefore, the correct order is liver, muscle, and then adipose tissue.Rate this question:
