Biology Questions

True, the given statement that a myocardial infarction is a heart attack.

A cell undergo meiosis, and it produces 4 haploid cells from a single diploid cell.

Hence, the given statement is true.

In the adult heart, blood in the right chambers of the heart cannot enter the left chambers without passing through the lungs is correct regarding mammalian heart.

Nucleotides are the building blocks of the DNA and RNA used as genetic material. Nucleotides also are used for cell signaling and to transport energy throughout cells.

Both deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) are made up of nucleotides which consist of three parts::

1. Nitrogenous Base
2. Pentose Sugar
3. Phosphate Group.

The protein synthesis take place in a cell outside the nucleus in the structures called ribosomes. Ribosomes link amino acids together in the order specified by messenger RNA molecules.

Cretinism is a disease caused by hypothyroidism(less thyroxine formation).The symptoms of the disease are retardation  of mental, physical and sexual developments. Potbellt, protruding tongue, dry skin etc are also indicative of this disease.

Antisnake venom: In the Hoffkine Institute at Bombay snake venom in mild dose is injected into horses and the horses are induced to produce anti-venom bodies. These are extracted and used in cases of snake bites.

Sexual reproduction results in gametes that combine two cells from different individuals. Meiosis also produces gametes. Haploids contain one set of chromosomes in each of their cells. Diploids cells contain two chromosome sets. For plants, haploid and diploid cells divide via mitosis. The plants’ haploid phase is called the gametophyte, and the diploid phase is called the sporophyte.

Sporophytes are diploid plants that use meiosis to produce spores. These spores are haploid cells that grow into haploid gametophytes. Megaspores grow into female gametophytes, and microspores grow into male gametophytes.

Gametophytes are haploid plants that use mitosis to make haploid gametes. These gametes are female in the form of an ovum (egg) or male in the form of sperm.
