An astronaut, Captain Fallowell had been aboard for 8 months at the international space station He left in the middle of his speech complainingabout the increased heart rate and abnormal blood pressure while standing. Sometimes, he also faces blackouts and dizziness while standing, although his reflexes were normal with no any sign or symptom of head trauma. Characters in the case: Captain Fallowell. Adequate information: According to the conversation of the two nurses, one of them said, the patient was fit and was just advised for the exercise of 2 hours. The other nurse told about the complications of the patient, that the tissue fluid and blood shifted into the head, and he got skinny legs. To determine: The effect of increased circulation of blood in the head and torso on the SNS (sympathetic nervous system), HR (heart rate), and PNS (parasympathetic nervous system). Given information: Captain Fallowell’s heart rate was high that is 112 beats per minute during standing and 85 beats per minute while he was lying. Also, the BP (blood pressure) was 94/52 mmHg when he was standing and on lying it was 116/66 mmHg.

You have returned to college to become a phylogeneticist. One of the first things you wish to do is determine how mammals, birds, and reptiles are related. Like any good scientist, you need to consider all available data objectively and without a preconceived “correct” answer. In pursuit of that, you should produce a phylogenetic tree based only on morphological features that show birds and mammals are more closely related. You will then produce a totally different tree, also using morphological features, that shows birds and reptiles are more closely related. Do not forget to include all three groups in both your trees. Based solely off the trees you produce, which relationship would you consider the more likely and why? Once you have answered that question, provide a brief summary of the “modern” understanding of the relationship between these three groups.

Biology laboratory problem Please help. thank you You have 20 ul of DNA solution and 6X DNA loading buffer solution. You have to mix your DNA solution and DNA loading buffer before load DNA in an agarose gel. The concentration of the DNA loading buffer must be 1X in the DNA and DNA-loading buffer mixture after you mix them. For that, I will add _____ ul of 6X loading buffer to the 20 ul DNA solution.
