The wetland plant purple loosestrife was imported to North America from Europe. Since its introduction, the loosestrife has spread, which has resulted in a dramatic decline in the biological diversity of native wetland plants. A likely reason for the spread of the purple loosestrife is that it can:_______.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Reproduce prolifically.  

Explanation:

Purple loosestrife, also known as Lythrum salicaria, is a tall Eurasian plant that spreads quickly. It can attack home gardens and grows mainly in wetlands and ditches. Purple loosestrife can rightly produce over 2 million seeds per plant, which can easily spread by wind and water and also remain viable in soil for several years. The insects and diseases that helps reduce the population of these plants are not found in North America

What stimulates the release of the enzyme amylase into the pancreatic duct so that it can break down starches?

A. acetylcholine molecules from a nearby neuron

B. the breakdown of glucose in the chloroplast

C. the division of the cell

D. the presence of protein in the stomach

E. a decrease in the volume of the large intestine

Answers

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Took the test and got a A

:-)

The release of the enzyme amylase into the pancreatic duct so that it can break down starches is B. the breakdown of glucose in the chloroplast. Thus, option "B" is correct.

How does glucose break down in human beings?

Salivary amylase starts the digestion of starch. Around 30% of total starch is digested by salivary amylase into maltose in the mouth. Pancreatic juice also has an amylase enzyme which digests the remaining starch into disaccharides in the small intestine.

Thus, option "B" is correct.

There are almost 10,000 known bird species on the planet. How did they evolve into so many unique forms?

Answers

Answer:

Natural selection.

Explanation:

Imagine in the beginning there was a single species of bird. Naturally, this bird had to expand to the rest of the world, and was distanced as the continents drifted off. But this bird had to cope with various climates and environments. So the bird would gradually mutate over time. The bird in the jungles of central america would develop different colors and a shaped beak, and would better help it survive. This led to being the new normal for birds of this area. It would evolve to cover all the surviving birds in the region, until it is so drastically changed then it is a new species. There are so many different environments, each with its own challenges to overcome, so so many different bird evolve to survive them.

A new human species was found on a distant planet, whose genetic inheritance and process of reproduction is identical to that of humans on earth, however, their phenotypes are much different. You are tracking two phenotypes in this new species: eye shape and tail size. The single gene that controls eye shape (gene E) is unlinked from the single gene that controls tail size (gene T). Square eyes is the dominant eye shape and round eyes is the recessive eye shape. Long tail is the dominant tail size and short tail is the recessive tail size.
1. An individual of this new species is heterozygous for gene E and heterozygous for gene T. What is their genotype and phenotype? (Note, the ‘ / ‘ symbolizes the genotype of the two different homologs for a given chromosome, for example chromosome 5 homolog / chromosome 5 homolog, and ' ; ' separates different chromosomes for example 'chromosome 5 ; chromosome 8)
a. E/E ; T/T – square eyes and long tail
b. e/e ; t/t – round eyes and short tail
c. E/e ; T/t – round eyes and short tail
d. E/e ; T/t – square eyes and long tail
e. e/e ; T/T – round eyes and long tail
f. E/T ; E/T– square eyes and long tail
2. Two individuals, who are both heterozygous for eye shape and tail size, mate. Which of the following is a correct statement about the phenotype ratios expected for their offspring?
a. 9/16 will have square eyes and short tails
b. 9/16 will have round eyes and short tails
c. 3/16 will have round eyes and long tails
d. 3/16 will have round eyes and short tails
e. 1/16 will have square eyes and long tails
3. From the mating described in question ABOVE, what proportion of ALL of the offspring in will be heterozygous for both traits?
a. 1/4
b. 1/16
c. 1/8
d. 1/9
e. 3/16
f. 9/16

Answers

Answer:

Since phospholipids work to provide pathways for various substances across cell membranes, they appear to be the best agents or packages for exporting the genetic material of a nucleic acid vaccine.  As cell membranes, phospholipids can allow selective passage of some substances into and out of the cells, even though they act as barriers to other molecules and ions.

There is a population of alien dogs, species Dogus Cute-ee-us, that live on the planet Woof. Their genomes and biology are amazingly identical to the genomes and biology of earth dogs. Consider a di-hybrid cross, where the first locus has alleles A and a, and second locus has alleles B and b. Each additional copy of either an A or B allele in the two-locus genotype increases the friendliness of the dog. Friendliness is measured by the Wilcoxon-Canus Amicus Diagnostic Scale (WCADS). There are five categories:

0 = Unfriendly/Loner (although not aggressive);
1 = Somewhat friendly/shy;
2 = Friendly;
3 = Very friendly;
4 = Maximally friendly.

For example, an alien dog with a two-locus genotype of Aabb would have a Somewhat friendly/shy behavior, since there is one copy of A and zero copies of B, adding to a score of 1 for the WCADS. Similarly, an alien dog with a two-locus genotype of AaBB has a Very friendly behavior (one copy of A + two copies of B = three copies total of A or B).

In the following mating: AaBb x AaBb, what is the expected ratio of Maximally friendly:Very friendly:Friendly:Somewhat friendly:Unfriendly alien dogs in the offspring, assuming the parents produce a very large litter?

a. 0:1:1:1:0
b. 1:2:3:2:1
c. 1:4:6:4:1
d. 9:3:3:1

Answers

Answer:

c. 1:4:6:4:1

Explanation:

The term quantitative heritability refers to the transmission of a phenotypic trait in which expression depends on the additive effect of a series of genes.  

Polygenic heritability occurs when a trait results from the interaction of more than one gene. And these genes can also have more than two alleles. The action of many genes and alleles can cause many different combinations that are the reason for genotypic graduation.  

Quantitative traits are those that can be measure, such as longitude, weight, eggs laid per female, among others. In the exposed example, the measurable trait is the dog´s friendliness. These characters do not group individuals by any precise and clear categories. Instead, they group individuals in many different categories that depend on how the genes were intercrossed and distributed during meiosis. The result depends on the magnitude in which each allele contributes to the final phenotype and genotype. When they interact, they create a gradation in phenotypes, according to the level of contribution.  

In the exposed example, each dominant allele contributes with a higher level of friendliness.    

aabb → 0 = Unfriendly/Loner (although not aggressive); Aabb, aaBb → 1 = Somewhat friendly/shy; AAbb, AaBb, aaBB → 2 = Friendly; AABb, aABB → 3 = Very friendly; AABB → 4 = Maximally friendly.

What happens to a population when its size is equal to the carrying capacity?
a. Its size fluctuates wildly.
b. It increases in size.
c. Its size stays steady.
d. It decreases in size.

Answers

Answer:

C

Explanation:

When a population reachs its carrying capacity it will slow down and become steady due to the population reaching its limit on food, water, etc. and they can only feed so many.

When population size is equal to the carrying capacity then "Its size stays steady".

What is population ?

A population means the total number of individuals who cohabit in a certain area.

What is steady-state?

A biofilm that exhibits no net growth or degradation over time is usually referred to as a steady-state biofilm.

A population might slow down and stabilize once it reaches it's own carrying capacity since it will no longer be able to consume as much food, water, and other resources.

Therefore, the correct answer will be option (c)
