Which type of cell can duplicate indefinitely?
Answer:
Embryonic stem cells
Explanation:
Answer:b
Explanation:
) Recall what you know about crossing over, independent assortment, and random joining of sex cells during sexual reproduction.
Answer:
Crossing over is the process of interchange of genetic information among non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosome pairs during meiosis (specifically during synapsis in prophase I). During this process, the synaptonemal complex enables the interchange of chromosome fragments between non-sister chromatids through crossing over. Moreover, in sexual reproduction, the zygote diploid cell can be generated by the random joining of fully differentiated haploid gametic cells (male and female gametes). The combination of random joining with the phenomenon of crossing over is known to considerably increase the genetic variation of the resulting offspring. After zygote formation, the successive cycles of cell divisions during embryonic development will develop an organism that during its adult stage will reproduce via sexual reproduction.

Phytoplankton, shown on the left in the image below, are microscopic organisms that can be found in freshwater and salt water environments. They perform photosynthesis to get energy and act as an important food source for larger organisms, such as the whale that is shown on the right. Phytoplankton A large whale. Which characteristic describes the whale but not its food source, the phytoplankton? The whale is heterotrophic. The whale has cell walls. The whale is unicellular. The whale is a prokaryote.
Answer:
The whale is heterotrophic.
Explanation:
Energy is needed by organisms to perform their life functions. Organisms, in nature, feed on one another for energy source. Some organisms are, however, capable of synthesizing their own food or energy source via a process called photosynthesis. This is the case of the phytoplankton in the question. These organisms are, therefore, called AUTOTROPHIC ORGANISMS or PRODUCERS.
On the other hand, some organisms are incapable of this self-production of energy source. Hence, they rely on other organisms for it. These category of organisms are called HETEROTROPHIC organisms, which is the category the large whale fall into due to its dependence on phytoplankton for energy source.

In 1998, paleoanthropologist Rick Potts published an article in The Yearbook of Physical Anthropology, a peer-reviewed journal. The article was titled “Environmental Hypotheses of Hominin Evolution.” In his paper, Potts claimed that great variations in environmental conditions over time were responsible for the adaptability of humans and the success of our species. Which would most likely be found in his paper? a review of modern human anatomical structure evidence of changing environmental conditions, with references the reasons competing hypotheses are wrong his opinion of what will happen to the survival of the human race
Answer:
Dr. Potts used environmental data to support environmental hypotheses capable of explaining human evolution
Explanation:
In this paper, the author stated that environmental factors have been fundamental for the emergence of adaptive traits during human evolution. In consequence, Dr. Potts explained how particular environmental factors and habitats might have shaped human evolution. For example, it has been hypothesized that dry savanna vegetation might have been a key environmental factor associated to the emergence of human traits including, among others, bipedality, making of tools from stones, the development of human brains, etc. In order to prove this hypothesis, the author recorded environmental data from different regions in Africa (Olorgesailie, Olduvai, Turkana, Zhoukoudian, etc), where it is believed that first hominids evolved about 6-8 million years ago.

Which of the following is a human-related release of greenhouse gases?
O A. Wild animal respiration
OB. Volcanic eruptions
O C. Intensive agriculture
O D. Solar cycles
It’s A
Answer:
C
Explanation:
I'm pretty sure it's actually C and not A. It's asking for human-related release from greenhouse gases. Humans don't cause volcanic eruptions and aren't in control of wildlife's respirations. The solar cycles has to do with the magnetic flux that rises to the surface of the sun and lasts 11 years. Intensive agriculture increases pollution which harms the environment.

In a cell with defective chaperones, Question 14 options: proteins would not be able to exit the ribosome. the concentration of misfolded proteins would be higher than normal. proteins would not be delivered to their appropriate cellular locations. ribosomes would not associate with the endoplasmic reticulum.
Answer:
the concentration of misfolded proteins would be higher than normal.
Explanation:
Chaperones proteins are required for the correct protein folding of proteins. These proteins were first discovered in bacteria. The level of chaperones is increased under thermic stress conditions, it is for that reason that they are also known as heat shock proteins (Hsp). For example, Hsp70 is a chaperon protein constitutively expressed under stress conditions that is involved in the folding of protein precursors and the refolding of misfolded proteins. In humans, Hsp70 is encoded by the HSPA1A gene, and its increased expression level is related to different health problems including neurodegenerative diseases, cerebral ischemia and epilepsy.
Mutations in region B and region D give the same results - when either of these regions is mutated, the operon is expressed under all conditions (called constitutive expression). You hypothesize that region B is the operator region and that Region D is the repressor protein. To test your hypothesis, you create two partial diploid lines by introducing a F' plasmid with a wild-type lac operon: Strain 1: F' A B C D E / A B- C D E Strain 2: F' A B C D E / A B C D- E What experimental results would be predicted by your hypothesis
Answer:
As it is given in the question that region D is the repressor protein and operator region is region B then the The repressor region D form a protein that will bind to the operator region B and leads to inhibition of the transcription. So, the repressor protein will not repressed a mutant operator and the lac gene will express itself constitutively.
Strain 1: F' A B C D E / A B- C D E
In this strain the mutant opertor gene is present so, it will not repressed by F' as it will not be able to bind. Hence, the lac gene expression is constitutive.
Strain 2: F' A B C D E / A B C D- E
In this strain there is two protein produced by the F' plasmid mutated repressor protein, and a non-mutated repressor protein. As we know mutated repressor will not bind to operator gene and still expression will take place but here a extra not mutated non-mutated protein is present and the repressor protein from F' will bind to the operator region B and thus repress the expression of gene in it.

Assume a population of deer has a crude birth rate of 36 per 1,000/yr, a crude death rate of 20 per 1,000/yr, an immigration rate of 15 per 1,000/yr, and an emigration rate of 8 per 1,000/yr. What is the population growth rate
Answer:
0.023%
Explanation:
The Population growth rate is a change in population with time taken into consideration. It can be expressed with the formula
[tex]N/t[/tex] where N is the total change in the population size, and t is time.
When immigration and emigration are factored in, we now have the formula;
[tex](CBR +I) - (CDR + I)/1000[/tex]
[tex]= (36 + 15) - (20 + 8) = 51 - 28= 23\\\\expressing as a percentage of the population gives us,\\\\23/1000=0.023%\\\\[/tex]

Explain why mutations that replace S/T/N residues with A/L/W residues in the N-terminal region of transmembrane proteins that function as cell surface receptors could significantly disrupt that utility of these proteins as receptors.
Answer:
Serine (S), Threonine (T) and Asparagine (N) are primary binding sites of carbohydrates, and thereby they are required to form glycoproteins (i.e., glycosylation products)
Explanation:
A transmembrane protein (TP) is a particular type of protein that crosses the cell membrane in order to enable the movement of ions and molecules. Transmembrane proteins are divided into alpha-helical and beta-barrel proteins. The N-terminal region of transmembrane glycoproteins can be required for N-linked glycosylation, which is an enzymatic mechanism capable of attaching oligosaccharides to proteins in order to form glycoproteins (glycans). N-linked glycosylation is a posttranslational protein modification that has distinct functions depending on the cell type and the protein region involved in such modification. For example, in the surface of immune cells, the N-linked glycans are capable of dictating the migration pattern of these cells.

Which of the following best describes the flow of energy in the Everglades food web shown below? (4 points) Diagram for an everglades food web. The food web contains the following organisms: American alligator, egret, raccoon, carp, Key deer, insects, Southern leopard frog, mangrove, and sawgrass. Mangrove is at the bottom of the food web, with arrows pointing to Key deer and insects. Sawgrass is also at the bottom of the web, with an arrow pointing to insects. Key deer, insects and Southern leopard frog are on the next level up. The Key deer has an arrow pointing to American alligator. The insects point to egret, carp, and Southern leopard frog. The Southern leopard frog points to the American alligator and the raccoon. The egret, carp and raccoon all points upward toward the American alligator. The carp also points to the egret. The American alligator is at the top of the food web. Mangrove → insects → carp → American alligator; about 90 percent of the energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level. Sawgrass → insects → Southern leopard frog → raccoon → American alligator; about 10 percent of the energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level. American alligator → carp → insects → mangrove; about 10 percent of the energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level. Egret → insects → mangrove → key deer → American alligator; about 90 percent of the energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level.
Answer:
Although there is no diagrammatic representation of the food web but the question can be answered based on the provided information. The answer is:
Sawgrass → insects → Southern leopard frog → raccoon → American alligator; about 10 percent of the energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level.
Explanation:
Food web is an interconnected food chain i.e. a series of food chains clustered together. A food web represents the various ways one organism can feed on another in a cycle. Since a food web consists of many food chains, energy is transferred when one organism feeds on another (flow of energy).
Just like a food chain, a food web begins with a PRODUCER, which is an organism capable of producing its own food via photosynthesis. This is the case of mangrove and sawgrass in this depicted food web as they are both producers and hence, must start the food web i.e. be at the bottom of the food web. Organisms called CONSUMERS feed on producers and one another to obtain energy. Consumers can be primary, secondary or tertiary depending on the organism they feed on. Primary consumers feed directly on producers, secondary consumer on primary and tertiary consumers on secondary, in that order.
This accounts for why the American Alligator is at the top of the food web because it is a tertiary consumer.
However, as organisms feed on one another, only about 10% of the available energy is transferred because most of the energy (about 90%) has been used for metabolic processes and hence, lost as heat.
Therefore, the best description for the flow of energy in the Everglades food web is:
Sawgrass → insects → Southern leopard frog → raccoon → American alligator; about 10 percent of the energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level.
Sawgrass is the producer and must begin the energy flow, followed by a primary consumer (insect). Feeding continues in that order until the tertiary consumer (American alligator) is reached.
Answer:
b) Mangrove → insects → Southern leopard frog → raccoon → American alligator; about 10 percent of the energy in one trophic level is transferred to the next trophic level.

What can a person do to limit exposure to X-rays?
wear sunblock
avoid cigarette smoke
wear a protective vest avoid chemicals
X-rays are a form of indirectly ionizing radiation, and it can be really nocive to the humans health, so limiting the exposure is always a priority.
Here the correct option is wearing a protective vest.
-------------------------------------
X-rays are a form of radiation that is indirectly ionizing. Remember that ionization is what causes damage to our cells, so is better to avoid exposures to these types of radiation.
Now, X-rays are strong enough that they can penetrate a lot of common materials (like wood, plastic, etc.) And once it enters in your body, the chain of reactions that starts can't be stoped by external means.
So what you need to do is limit the exposure as much as you can. Ideally, you shouldn't be near a source of X-rays, but if there is no other option, you should use protection against radiation.
It comes in different forms depending on what the application is, for example, there are led screens that you can use to put between you and the source, and these will reduce drastically the fluence (flux of photons) that gets to you.
Similarly, there are protective vests also made in part of led or other high atomic number materials, that absorb the photons and protect you.
So here the correct option is to wear a protective vest, from the given options, is the only one that will protect you from the X-rays.

Answer:
Meiosis is the mechanism used for producing gametes in multicellular organisms whereas it does
unicellular organisms.
Explanation:
Meiosis is a kind of cell division used mainly by sexually-reproducing organisms, whether unicellular or multicellular, to produce gametes i.e. meiosis only occurs during gamete formation.
In sexual reproduction, gametes must fuse in a process called fertilization. This gametes, however, must each possess half of the chromosome number of the individual organism. Meiosis is the process that ensures that the chromosome number of the gametes is reduced by half i.e. diploid (2n) to haploid (n).
Therefore, meiosis is the process of gamete formation in sexually-reproducing unicellular or multicellular organisms.
When curare, a South American arrow poison, is placed on a nerve-muscle preparation, the muscle though a neurotransmitter is still being released from the nerve. Give a possible explanation for the action of curare (be sure to include specific details explaining does not contract when the nerve is stimulated, even how and why).
Answer:
In a muscle contraction,neurotransmitter acetycholine stimulate the post synaptic membrane of the neuron or the sarcolemma of the muscles cells at the motor end plate .This neurotransmission effect leads to the opening of ligand gated sodium channels.
Therefore action potential(Endplate potential) is transmitted across the synaptic juction to to the muscles to bring about contraction of muscles(effector) .Therefore Acetycholine is refereed to as excitatory hormone.
Curare works as competitive inhibitor of acetycholine at the motor end plate. It prevents the binding of Acetycholine with the endplate.Therefore, ligand gated Na+channels can not open, thus End potential can not be generated due to lack of depolarization, thus contraction of muscles is inhibited.
Thus,despite the fact that the neurotransmitter is produced, the curare has blocked the end plate.So, no muscles contraction will occur because ,no place for the the excitatory acetylcholine to bind with.Hence the the muscle cells are in the permanent state of relaxation (resting membrane potential).
Animals poisoned with this substance usually asphyxiate because of paralysis of the diaphragm, external and internal inter-coastal muscles and collapse of the lungs and therefore failure of the entire respiration muscles and system.Thus lack of oxygen from failed breathing.
