describe the non genetic RNA type |
|
Answer» Non genetic RNA is a RNA molecule which doesn't act as a genetic material. In certain viruses like RNA viruses and some bacteriophage, where a single or double stranded RNA molecule acts as a genetic material similar to DNA in eukaryotic cells. It has ability to self replicate without DNA. This RNA molecule is a genetic one. Where as in eukaryotic cells and bacteria RNA doesn't play role of genetic material. It acts as amino acid carrier tRNA or messenger molcule mRNA and some other functions. This RNA molecules are non genetic one. Anon-coding RNA(ncRNA) is anRNAmolecule that is nottranslatedinto aprotein. TheDNAsequence from which a functional non-coding RNA is transcribed is often called an RNAgene. Abundant and functionally importanttypes of non-coding RNAsincludetransfer RNAs(tRNAs) andribosomal RNAs(rRNAs), as well as small RNAs such asmicroRNAs,siRNAs,piRNAs,snoRNAs,snRNAs,exRNAs,scaRNAsand thelong ncRNAssuch asXistandHOTAIR. The number of non-coding RNAs within the human genome is unknown; however, recenttranscriptomicandbioinformaticstudies suggest that there are thousands of them.[1][2][3][4][5][6]Many of the newly identified ncRNAs have not been validated for their function.[7]It is also likely that many ncRNAs are non functional (sometimes referred to asjunk RNA), and are the product of spurious transcription.[8][9] Non-coding RNAs contribute to diseases includingcancerandAlzheimer's. |

What is RNA |
|
Answer» Ribonucleic acid, or RNA is one of the three major biological macromolecules that are essential for all known forms of life (along with DNA and proteins). A central tenet of molecular biology states that the flow of genetic information in a cell is from DNA through RNA to proteins: “DNA makes RNA makes protein”. Proteins are the workhorses of the cell; they play leading roles in the cell as enzymes, as structural components, and in cell signaling, to name just a few. DNA(deoxyribonucleic acid) is considered the “blueprint” of the cell; it carries all of the genetic information required for the cell to grow, to take in nutrients, and to propagate. RNA–in this role–is the “DNA photocopy” of the cell. When the cell needs to produce a certain protein, it activates the protein’s gene–the portion of DNA that codes for that protein–and produces multiple copies of that piece of DNA in the form of messenger RNA, or mRNA. The multiple copies of mRNA are then used to translate the genetic code into protein through the action of the cell’s protein manufacturing machinery, the ribosomes. Thus, RNA expands the quantity of a given protein that can be made at one time from one given gene, and it provides an important control point for regulating when and how much protein gets made. RNA is Ribonucleic Acid. One of the two genetic material.The other one being DNA ( deoxyribonucleic acid).Hope this helps. |

1. How do the characteristics of mother and father get transmitted in a human embryo ?2. Give the names of bisexual animals.3. Why male reproductive system is called as urinogenital system? |
|
Answer» 1)The answer is genes. The characteristics of the mother and father get transmitted into the embryo because both X and Y chromosomes carry genes. The Y chromosomes from the mother have about 50 genes, and the X chromosomes from the father have 850 genes. These genes contain traits of the mother and father and combine in the embryo. 2)Earth worm2.Bonobos3.killer whale4.Bottlenose Dolphins5. Humboldt penguins6. Black swans7.Flamingo8.Chilean Flamingoes9.Giraffe 3)The word urinogenital is composed of two words urine and genital. Hence, urinogenital system refers to the organs of both urinary system as well as reproductive system. It is because because both the systems originate and develop from the intermediate mesoderm. In addition, they use common ducts (urethra) for the flow of semen (product of reproductive system) and urine (product of excretory system) outside the body. |

describe male reproductive system briefly |
|
Answer» Themale reproductive systemconsists of a number ofsex organsthat play a role in the process ofhuman reproduction. These organs are located on the outside of the body and within thepelvis.Most species have two sexes: male and female. Each sex has its own unique reproductive system. They are different in shape and structure, but both are specifically designed to produce, nourish, and transport either the egg or sperm.Unlike the female, whose sex organs are located entirely within the pelvis, the male has reproductive organs, orgenitals, that are both inside and outside the pelvis. The male genitals include: the testicles the duct system, which is made up of the epididymis and the vas deferens the accessory glands, which include the seminal vesicles and prostate gland the penis In a guy who's reached sexual maturity, the twotesticles(pronounced: TESS-tih-kulz), ortestes(pronounced: TESS-teez), produce and store millions of tiny sperm cells. The testicles are oval-shaped and grow to be about 2 inches (5 centimeters) in length and 1 inch (3 centimeters) in diameter.The testicles are also part of the endocrine system because they produce hormones, includingtestosterone(pronounced: tess-TOSS-tuh-rone). Testosterone is a major part of puberty in guys, and as a guy makes his way through puberty, his testicles produce more and more of it. Testosterone is the hormone that causes guys to develop deeper voices, bigger muscles, and body and facial hair, and it also stimulates the production of sperm.Alongside the testicles are theepididymis(pronounced: ep-uh-DID-uh-miss) and thevas deferens(pronounced: VAS DEF-uh-runz), which make up the duct system of the male reproductive organs. The vas deferens is a muscular tube that passes upward alongside the testicles and transports the sperm-containing fluid calledsemen(pronounced: SEE-mun). The epididymis is a set of coiled tubes (one for each testicle) that connects to the vas deferens. thanks |

a) Write the name of human male reproductive organ that producessecretes a hormone. Name the hormone secreted and state its functions(b) Write the site of fertilization and the part where the zygote gets into the human female. |
|
Answer» (a) Testis is the male reproductive organ in humans that produces sperms and also secretes the testosterone hormone. Important functions of testosterone are as follows: Stimulates the development, maturation and functioning of the male accessory sex organs like vas deferens and seminal vesicles Stimulates muscular growth, growth of facial hair, low pitch voice, sperm production, etc. (b) (i) Fertilisation takes place in the fallopian tube (oviduct). (ii) Implantation of the fertilised egg occurs in the uterus. The embryo develops inside the mother’s body for about nine months. Inside the uterus, the outer tissue surrounding the embryo develops finger-like projections called villi. These villi are surrounded by uterine tissue and maternal blood. They provide a large surface area for the exchange of oxygen and nutrients. There is a special tissue called placenta embedded in the uterine wall. The embryo receives the oxygen and nutrients from the mother’s blood via the placenta. The waste material produced by the embryo is removed through the placenta. |

What will happen when egg will not fertilised in ovary |
|
Answer» Every 28 days or so, one matureegg isreleased from theovary. Thisiscalled ovulation. After theegg isreleased, it moves into the fallopian tube where it stays for about 24 hours. If theegg is not fertilizedduring that time, theeggdisintegrates (breaks down) and menstruation (your period) begins 2 weeks later |

Describe the events in the ovary of a human female during luteal phase in the menstual cycle? |
|
Answer» The luteal phase is the second phase of the cycle– after ovulation and before menstruation. This phase ends when your period/menstruation begins. After ovulation, progesterone is produced from the remains of the follicle that released the egg, the follicle is now called corpus luteum. Corpus luteum is what produces progesterone, which the body needs to soften the endometrium (mucus lining of the uterus). This makes it easier for the egg to attach if fertilized, or releases the endometrium if conception doesn't occur (the uterus then sheds the endometrium) and your period starts. An increase of progesterone levels in the body also increases the temperature. If the egg is not fertilized, the corpus luteum stops producing progesterone after approx. 12-16 days and your temperature drop to below your cover line again. The luteal phase is between 10-16 days, the average length is 14 days and is usually equally as long in every cycle. If you have a luteal phase defect and your luteal phase is less than 9 days, it may be harder to get pregnant. What is luteal phase defect (LPD)? Luteal phase defect (LPD) is when your ovaries don't produce enough progesterone, or the lining of the uterus (endometrium) doesn't respond well enough to the hormone. When the endometrium doesn't grow enough, it makes it hard for the fertilized embryo to attach, making it difficult to achieve and/or obtain a pregnancy. The most common symptoms for LPD is: More frequent periods Difficulty obtaininga pregnancy Miscarriages Spotting in between periods Factors that may lead to LPD is: Anorexia Endometriosis Extreme exercise Hyperprolactinemia (too much of the hormone that produces breast milk) PCOS Thyroid issues Very high BMI |

2.Whatdoyoukmowaboutbloodcireculatorysystemofhuman beings? |
|
Answer» The circulatory system is centred on theHEART, a muscular organ that rhythmically pumpsBLOODaround a complex network ofBLOOD VESSELSextending to every part of the body. Blood carries the oxygen and nutrients needed to fuel the activities of the body’s tissues and organs, and it plays a vital role in removing the body’s waste products. An average-sized adult carries about 5 litres (9 pints) of blood.All the output of blood from the left side of the heart goes into the aorta, the body’s largest artery. Other arteries branch from the aorta to supply blood to the head, limbs, and internal organs. The blood is drained from all these parts by veins into two large vessels, the inferior and superior venae cava, which deliver the blood back to the right side of the heart. HEART The heart contracts tirelessly – more than 2.5 billion times over an average lifetime – to pump blood around the body. These contractions are triggered by electrical impulses that originate in a specialized area of heart tissue. The signals spread through the muscle in the wall of the heart via a network of conducting fibres. INSIDE THE HEART The heart has two upper chambers, called atria, and two lower chambers, called ventricles. Blood from the body arrives in the right atrium. This blood is low in oxygen, and is shown here in blue. The blood passes to the right ventricle, which pumps it to the lungs to pick up more oxygen. The left atrium receives oxygen-rich blood (red) back from the lungs. This passes to the left ventricle, which pumps it by way of the aorta to the body. HEART VALVES At the exit of each heart chamber lies a valve, which ensures the one-way flow of blood through the heart and into the circulation. These valves are made of flaps that open to allow blood to pass through but snap tightly shut to prevent backflow. The valves have three flaps, except for the valve between the left atrium and left ventricle, which has two. BLOOD VESSELS If an adult’s blood vessels were laid end to end, they would stretch out over 100,000 km (62,500 miles). There are three main types of vessel. Arteries carry blood from the heart to the body’s tissues, while veins carry blood back from the tissues to the heart. Small arteries are called arterioles and small veins are referred to as venules. The third and smallest type of vessel, capillaries, form a network connecting the smallest arterioles with the smallest venules. |

Suggest some ways of reusing a resource in your locality. |
|
Answer» Here are just several of the disposable items you can get out of your life forever: Water Bottles. Drinkingbottled wateris a common and expensive habit. If you go through a $7 case of bottled water every week, that’s $364 per year for something you could get out of a tap for less than $1.Invest in a $17 reusable water bottle instead, and it will pay for itself more than 20times over in its first year of use. Atthe same time, you’ll keep more than 1,200 disposable plastic bottles out of the waste stream Lastly, according to a report from thePacific Institute, you’llsave more than 100kWh of energy. Shopping Bags. According to theNatural Resources Defense Council, the average American familytakes homeclose to 1,500 plastic shopping bags each year. Those bags require more than 8,000 barrels of oil to manufacture, andonly about5% of them are recycled.You can avoid all this waste by carrying a reusable bag. There are dozens of kinds to choose from, including canvas, nylon, and string bags – and there are evenbagsyou can fold up andtuck intoapocket, purse, or backpack, soyou’ll never be caught out shopping without one. Dishes and Utensils. You probably usewashable dishes, glasses, and silverware for yourmeals athome. But during the workday, you might not think twice about grabbing a paper cup full of coffee or a plastic fork to eat your lunch. Then, whenyou’re done eating or drinking, itgoes right in the trash. Here’s a greener alternative: keep a plate, a mug, and a set of silverware at work. Then you can serveyour takeout food in style and just wash the dishes when you’re done. To-Go Containers. Speaking of eating out, it’s likely you often findthelarge food portionsat restaurants today are more than youwant to eat in one sitting. If you ask to take home yourleftovers, the server brings you a giantfoamclam shell that just goes straight in the trash when the food is gone.So when you’re planning to eat out, avoid both food waste and packaging waste by bringing along a reusable container. Napkins. Many people use paper napkins all the time – even at home. Afamily of four that used one napkin at every meal would utilize and discard 4,300 napkins in a year – roughly $65worth. That same family could buy a dozen cloth napkins for $10 and reuse them over and over. They’d save $55 just in the first year, produce less trash, and save trees. |
