Are you in favor of a national health care program? Do you support the Affordable Health Care Act? Do youth think there may be other options? Who is responsible for paying for healthcare? If there is a person in the United States who does not have insurance but needs healthcare, what are their options?

Support your answers with reasons why or why not.

Dioxin is a deadly toxin. In animal tests, however, hamsters are unaffected by doses that would kill guinea pigs. Dioxin acts like a steroid hormone, entering the cell and binding to its receptor in the cytoplasm.

1. How could that explain its different effects throughout the body and in different organisms? (2 pts)
2. How could you figure out if an illness is related to dioxin exposure? (3 pts)

​​​​​​​Mass spectrometry is a very accurate means of determining the mass and sequence of peptides, however some inconsistencies occur due to incomplete reactions and similar structures.

The light reactions of photosynthesis use light energy to manufacture two types of energy-rich molecules: _______ and the electron carrier ________. Photons are captured by protein complexes with embedded chlorophyll molecules and other pigments.  These complexes are known as ___________.  One of them absorbs light most efficiently at 680 nm, the other absorbs best at 700 nm. The complexes are inserted in the _______ membranes of chloroplasts. Absorbed light energy is directed to "special pairs" of chlorophyll molecules, dislodging  ___________ (protons/ electrons). These particles are then passed on to a series of four protein complexes and pigments, also arranged in the membrane. The series is collectively known as a(n) ________. As the particles are passed from one member of the series to the next, some of the energy they release is used to pump________ across the membrane, generating an electrochemical gradient. The ________ (protons/ electrons) diffuse back _____________ (against/ down) their gradient, passing through the enzyme ___________. The kinetic energy of the particle stream causes the enzyme to rotate at great speed, giving it the energy to phosphorylate molecules of _______________, producing the universal energy carrier ___________________.  

What are the “building blocks” of proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids? How do they play a key role in biophysical modeling on the molecular scale? In other words, why do we focus on these building blocks?

can u tell me please its a 15 marks question

Do you think disorders such as chronic fatigue syndrome are “last chance” diagnoses for patients with symptoms of uncertain origin? Why or why not? Please cite your sources.

1. The ability to taste the chemical, phenylthiocarbamide (PTC), is determined by a gene on chromosome 7 that shows dominant inheritance. PTC-like chemicals are found in vegetables like broccoli and cabbage. Tasters don’t enjoy eating these types of vegetables while non-tasters don’t notice this bitter taste in these vegetables. (T= ability to taste PTC; t= non-taster) Determine the probability that the following couples (a, b, and c) will have a non-taster child. Support your answer with a Punnett square.
2. 1. Two tasters, who are both heterozygous:
3. 2. A non-taster marries a taster who is homozygous:
   3. Two non-tasters:
   4. Can a non-taster have 2 biological parents that are both tasters?
