If a small drop of tiny particles such as pollen grains are dropped into a drop of water on a microscope slide, they will appear to vibrate and spread out. The primary reason for this is

Answers

Answer:

The primary reason is that the pollen grains are being struck by water molecules that move in different directions. These strikes fluctuate and sometimes are uneven.

Explanation:

This vibration and spread out of molecules in water is called Brownian Motion. It is the result of the collision of small particles of water with big particles of pollen. As the particles of water move randomly hitting different sides of the pollen particle, at times, there will not be a coordinated movement, but as the movement of water particles is random, there will be moments when one side of the pollen particle will collide with more water particles, when this happens there is an unbalanced force that makes the pollen particle moves in a direction.

Answers

The question is incomplete and the diagram is also not given. So the diagram is attached below and the complete question is as follows:

The following models show one large cell (A) and four small cells (B).

Which of the following states why one of the models is better for moving more nutrients in and out of the cell?  

A. B is better because it has more surface area.

B. A is better because it has less surface area.

C. A is better because it has more volume.

D. B is better because it has more volume

Answer:

A. B is better because it has more surface area.

Explanation:

The movement of nutrients in a cell depends on the surface to volume ratio. More is the surface to volume ratio, better will be the movement of nutrients in and out of the cell.

In the given model, small cells (B) has more surface to volume ratio as surface area of B is larger, so, the model B is better for moving more nutrients in and out of the cell.

Hence, the correct option is "A".

Answer:

B has smaller cells but more surface area than A

Answers

Answer:

lower than

Explanation:

The protons obtained from the spit of  hydrogen atoms, to protons and electrons, (which was transported to the Matrix of the mitochondria by NADH and FADH2 ) are pumped by PMF into the intramembrane space.

The constant pumps by the PMF,due to the electron transport chains set up high concentration of Hydrogen ions in the intramembrane space.If pH is -log[H+] then the high the number of H+/protons,the stronger  the acidity,and lower the pH  of the medium.

This set up higher electrochemical gradient compare to the matrix.Thus H+ diffuses down the gradients into the matrix.

This generate energy needed for the synthesis of ATPs by ATPase synthase in the matrix

Place in correct order the following steps in the process of appositional growth of cartilage. a: New matrix is produced and secreted. b: Chondrocytes differentiate, each in its own lacuna. c: Stem cells undergo mitosis. d: Committed cells differentiate into chondroblasts.

Answers

Answer:

c: stem cells mitosis stem.

d: the compromised cells differentiate into chondroblasts.

a: New matrix is produced and secreted.

b: Chondrocytes differ, each in its own gap.

Explanation:

The appositional growth of cartilage occurs in an appositional order, thus generating these cartilage structures to give future bone structures or mature cartilages themselves.

In the cartilage of growth of long bones this process happens.

Chondroblasts are differentiated cells that can form the extracellular matrix, and chondrocytes would be the mature form of these that are submerged in their MEC once they reach the secretion limit.

The constant cartilage of cellular, mineral and organic structures, with organic compounds predominating (almost 80 percent are collagen fibers, proteoglycans and glycoproteins), that is why this tissue has a certain elasticity.

Which reason best explains why bacteria are good at causing infections in other organisms? It would not be able to divide. Bacteria are transmitted easily and reproduce quickly. Bacteria evolve slowly as they pass on genetic information. Bacteria are easily killed by a host’s immune system or antibiotics.

Answers

Answer:

Bacteria are transmitted easily and reproduce quickly

Explanation:

Bacteria are organisms that have a single cell. The process of reproduction of the bacteria is binary fission. The parent cell divides into the daughter cell. The DNA of the parent cell gets copied and gets divided by forming the identical daughter cells. Some bacteria have nutritional values in them while the others are infectious. They can divide at an alarming rate if they receive favorable conditions. Also, they are easily communicable and transmittable. It is because of this reason that the bacteria are good at causing infections in other organisms.

Compare and contrast the contributions of Neel, Pauling, and Ingram to our understanding of the genetic and molecular basis of sickle cell disease (SCD).

Answers

He demonstrated that SCD and sickle cell trait were due to the presence of abnormal 8-globin polypeptides in red blood cells. He demonstrated that the electrophhoretic mobility of B-globin from patients with SCD was different from that of healthy individuals. He demonstrated that both parents of multiple patients with SCD had low levels of sickled red blood cells. He hypothesized that SCD was a recessive trait and that the parents of patients with SCD would be heterozygous carriers. He demonstrated that the difference between B-globin polypeptides in individuals who were healthy and those with SCD is an amino acid substitution. He performed a peptide fingerprint analysis on B-globin from individuals with 84 84 and 89 88, which identified the segment of B-globin that was changed by the BS mutation.

Coal and petroleum products (fossil fuels) are a powerful resource of ___________ and energy. Following _________ plants and animals are buried and "stored" underground for millions of years leading to the formation of these byproducts.

Answers

Answer:

Carbon AND

DEATH

Explanation:

Carbon containing organic molecules derived from the remains of  dead plants and animals on the earth million of years ago, buried deep under  the sediment and rock layers are called Fossil fuels. Coal,oil,and natural gas are examples.

These underground deposits were formed million of years ago,due to the chemical reactions between  relatively underground  water molecules on one hand,and the  earliest mic organisms  viz algae,bacteria  which inhabited the earth other hand.These decomposition occurred around 540 to 65milion years ago.

However,some million of later chemical reactions in the soil leads to compression of these remains underground.The degradation leads to formation of the fossil fuel precursor called Kerogen. With time Geothermal heat transforms the kerogen precursor to fossil fuel.  some other kerogens are transformed to other natural gas,coal etc.

What is the allele frequency?

Answers

Allel frequency, or gene frequency, is the relative frequency of an allele at a particular locus in a population, expressed as a fraction or percentage. Specifically, it is the fraction of all chromosomes in the population that carry that allele

Answer:

Explanation:

Allele frequency is the how often or what's the percentage of a particular allele in a population. Allele is referred to as version of a gene that is located on the chromosome.

For example, a gene causing death in rats might have alleles, W and w. Each would be a separate allele and the frequency would be how often or what's the percentage of W or w that is present in the population.

Suppose we are trying to find frequency of W or w allele in a population then the formula is

Allele Frequency = [# of copies of certain allele (either W or w)] / [Total number of W and w alleles]

Now suppose we have 4 WW and 2 ww in a population.

First we count up W allele then we have (4 * 2)= 8 W (we multiplied by 2 because each organism has WW, 4 WW is short of of writing WW , WW, WW, WW)Same concept for 2ww, we have total w = 2 * 2 = 4w

Total alleles = W + w = 8 +4 =12

Allele Frequency for W = 8 / 12 = 66.67%

Allle Frequency for w = 4 / 12 = 33.33%

What are the five senses? Type your brainstorm

Answers

Answer:

Sense: Smell, Taste, Touch, Sight, Hearing

Explanation:

Answer:

touch, sight, hearing, smell, taste

Explanation:

Touch is thought to be the first sense that humans develop, according to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. Touch consists of several distinct sensations communicated to the brain through specialized neurons in the skin. Pressure, temperature, light touch, vibration, pain and other sensations are all part of the touch sense and are all attributed to different receptors in the skin.

Sight, or perceiving things through the eyes, is a complex process. First, light reflects off an object to the eye. The transparent outer layer of the eye called the cornea bends the light that passes through the hole of the pupil. The iris (which is the colored part of the eye) works like the shutter of a camera, retracting to shut out light or opening wider to let in more light.

hearing sense works via the complex labyrinth that is the human ear. Sound is funneled through the external ear and piped into the external auditory canal. Then, sound waves reach the tympanic membrane, or eardrum. This is a thin sheet of connective tissue that vibrates when sound waves strike it.

Humans may be able to smell over 1 trillion scents, according to researchers. They do this with the olfactory cleft, which is found on the roof of the nasal cavity, next to the "smelling" part of the brain, the olfactory bulb and fossa.

The gustatory sense is usually broken down into the perception of four different tastes: salty, sweet, sour and bitter. There is also a fifth taste, defined as umami or savory. There may be many other flavors that have not yet been discovered. Also, spicy is not a taste.

Briefly explain what was done in the experiment where pigeons could choose which button to peck in the Skinner box. How does this relate to self-control?

Answers

In this experiment, Skinner placed a pigeon inside a box that contained a button that when pressed released water or food. This pigeon went through periods of deprivation of water and food, but over time, he realized that when he pecked the button he had access to these two elements. Skinner called this behavior operant behavior, which is the behavior that occurs controlled by its consequences.

Although Skinner did not specifically study self-control, with this experiment, we can make a connection between operant behavior and self-control, since both are behaviors shown as a way to change the environment in which they are inserted, but this change also affects them.

All organisms are composed of cells that share a structural organization and play roles in similar biological processes.

Explanation:

All living organisms can be grouped in terms of cellular organization, functioning, and structure. These features enable us to define them as “subjects” of life. Organisms share basic biological mechanisms such as, among others, growth, homeostasis, development, energy processing, reproduction, etc. Moreover, life is also defined by the presence of essential biomolecules such as DNA, RNA, proteins and lipids. Finally, the cell is considered to be the basic unit of every life form, and organisms may be formed by one (unicellular) or more cells (multicellular). The fundamental feature of the cell is the presence of a membrane that separates it from the external environment, thereby defining its internal environment.
