We know already that protein should make up approximately 10-35% of the total dietary intake for most people. We also know that protein serves MANY functions inside of the body.
My question to you: Even though proteins are so important and necessary in the body, why is it that we only require 10-35% ingested each day?
It is a diet for the cell . the protein we take goes straight towards the muscle and it helps increase the muscle

Please respond in your own words, interpreting the concept, and answering the prompt utilizing the language your learned in Epidemiology 101 this semester. I conducted an RCT, where I placed 125 people in treatment A, 125 people in treatment B, and 125 people in the placebo group. The Principal Investigator (PI) for my research project just called me to tell me that I violated the ethics code in the assignment of treatment options. What may I have done wrong?

One question that I've thought about recently has to do with clouds. We've learned about the formation of clouds but haven't really gotten that much deeper in the topic. I remember reading an article a while ago about bacteria existing in clouds but I wan't to completely sure on the accuracy of the source so my question then is, can living organisms exist in clouds? If operating under the idea that yes, specific organisms can in fact exist inside clouds, then secondly I would want to know what properties do clouds have that allow for this phenomena to happen.

d) RESEARCH ON THE APPLICATION OF PHYLOGENY in Medicine. Write a 2-3 page research paper using at least 3 scientific papers/articles on the application of phylogeny in developing medical treatment for a named virus or parasite that has impacted populations.
Paper should also include:
a) Name of the virus/parasite and disease or infection caused.
b) Source of the disease or infection eg vectors
c) Explain the symptoms of the disease/infection caused by the virus/parasite
d) Diagnosis and Prognosis
e) Example(s) of how phylogeny is utilized in treating the disease/infection.

12. You have isolated two different mutations in squash plants. The first mutation causes fruit to be white instead of green. The second mutation causes fruit to be yellow instead of green. The two mutations affect different genes, w(hite) and g(reen) respectively. The allele symbols for w are w+ (wildtype) and w (mutant). The allele symbols for g are g+ (wildtype) and g (mutant). When you conduct a dihybrid cross (w+/w;g+/g x w+/w;g+/g) you obtain the following phenotypic ratio: White fruit (12) : Yellow fruit (3) : Green fruit (1)
a) Which allele(s) are dominant? (2 points) __ w+ _√_ w __ g+ __ g
b) Which gene is epistatic? (2 points) _√_ w(hite) __ g(reen) __ neither white nor green
(the check marks are my answers, wanted to confirm that my answers were correct, if not, why)
