A 44 year old man was admitted to the hospital following a 2 week history of low grade fever, malaise, and anorexia. Examination of a Giemsa stained blood film revealed many intraerythrocytic parasites. Further history revealed frequent camping trips near Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket Island, but no travel outside the continental United States. This parasite could easily be confused with:_________.
a. Babesia microti
b. Leishmania donovani
c. Plasmodium ovale
d. Toxoplasma gondii
e. none of these

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: OPTION C (Plasmodium ovale)

Explanation: The symptoms of the infection is also seen in the listed intraerythrocytic protozoans in the options. However, the travel history of the man establishes that the man wasn't exposed to an intraerythrocytic protozoans which isn't endemic in the United States, and considering the man's trip around vineyard and island which can serve as breeding site of mosquitoes (vector of Plasmodium spp) makes this parasite easily confused with Plasmodium ovale.

There is a great diversity of metabolism in microbes, with new types being discovered regularly. For example, the use of nanowires by the ANME and SRB was only discovered relatively recently (the study described in the introduction was published in 2015). Understanding microbial metabolism is essential to understanding how these organisms function within an ecosystem, including understanding symbiotic associations such as that between ANME and SRB. The terminology below describes metabolic types. Match each metabolic type with the best description.

1. Syntrophs
2. Autotrophs
3. Chemolithotrophs
4. Mixotrophs
5. Heterotrophs
6. Phototrophs
7. Chemotrophs

Answers

Answer:

a. mixotrophs

b. autotrophs

c. syntrophs

d. phototrophs

e. heterotrophs

f. chemolithotrophs

g. chemotrophs

Explanation:

Autotrophs are organisms that can synthesize their own food using carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (e.g., algae, cyanobacteria, plants, etc). Syntrophs are organisms that utilize products from other organisms (e.g., mites that consume human dead-skin). Phototrophs are organisms that synthesize their own food by using the energy provided by sunlight (e.g., green plants). Heterotrophs are organisms that cannot synthesize their own food, obtaining energy and nutrients by consuming other organisms (e.g., animals). Mixotrophs are flexible organisms that obtain their food by using a mix of different sources of energy and carbon. Protists that combine autotrophy and heterotrophy are considered mixotrophs. Chemotrophs are organisms that obtain energy by the oxidation of electron donors from the environment, by using both organic sources (chemoorganotrophs) and inorganic sources (chemolithotrophs). Examples of chemolithotrophs include sulfur/iron-oxidizing bacteria, while chemoorganotrophs include the most known bacteria and archaea.

Why is Meiosis important to organisms?

California condors (Gymnogyps californianus) are listed on the IUCN Red List as being critically endangered. Since 2003, the California Condor Recovery Program has been reporting their demographic data. In 2012 they estimated the number of individuals living in the wild to be 235. If their intrinsic rate of natural increase is 0.089 ind/year, predict the size of the California condor population in 2022.

Answers

Answer:

 ≈ 572

Explanation:

Predict the size of the California condor in 2022

we can predict this value with this relation below

Nt  =  No*e^(rt)  --- ( 1 )

where ; Nt = Future population , No = initial population,  r = intrinsic rate of increase ,  t = time

No = 235

r = 0.089

t = 2022 - 2012 = 10

Insert values into equation  1

Nt = 235 * e^( 0.089 * 10 )

    = 235 * e^0.89

    ≈ 572

Therefore the size of the California condor population in 2022 ≈ 572

False The taxon that shares the most recent common ancestor with frogs is the bass. True Leopards and lancelets have no common ancestor. False

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The objective is to conclude if the statements are true or false based on facts.

1)[tex]\text{ Turtles and leopards all have four limbs and an amnion. }[/tex] True

2) [tex]\text{The common ancestor of lamprey and lancelets had a vertebral column. }[/tex] False

This is because their ancestor is a Chordate who doesn't have a vertebral column but a notochord.

3) True

[tex]\text{Frogs are the sister taxa of turtles and leopards because they are more }[/tex]

[tex]\text{related to a common ancestor.}[/tex]

4) [tex]\text{Leopards and bass are more closely related than turtles and bass}[/tex]  False

This is because the bass is a fish that possess some characteristics traits related to an amphibian (turtle) as compared to a mammal(leopard).

5) [tex]\text{The taxon that shares the most recent common ancestor with frogs is the bass.}[/tex] False

The taxa of turtles share a more common ancestor with frogs compared to bass.

6) [tex]\text{Leopards and lancelets have no common ancestor. }[/tex] False

The common distant ancestor for leopards and lancelets is known as  Chordates

Scientists build models based on what they know from previous research to derive testable hypotheses.Independently, both Watson and Crick and their competitor Linus Pauling constructed an incorrect triple-helix model with the nitrogenous bases arranged so they were on the exterior of the molecule and the phosphate groups on the interior. What evidence caused Watson and Crick to revise their model (CHOOSE 2)

Answers

Answer:

Hello. You didn't show the answer options, but we can consider that Watson and Crick revised the DNA model after seeing DNA images taken through Franklin's x-ray and by observing the pairing of the nitrogenous bases.

Explanation:

For a long time it was believed that the DNA molecule had 3 strands, instead of two, however this information was inaccurate and although defended by some scholars it was somewhat controversial and showed the need for further investigation. With that in mind, Watson and Crick decided that it was necessary to evaluate DNA in a three-dimensional way and therefore, they obtained x-ray images of DNA molecules, taken by Franklin. In these images, it was possible to notice that the DNA had two strands, instead of three. To prove this discovery, Watson and Crick analyzed the nitrogenous bases discovered by Chargaff and the way they were paired, coming to the conclusion that the DNA had two strands.

B) Chromosomes pair up with chromosomes from another organism during fertilization.

C) Gametes are created with one set of chromosomes.

What is sperm cell?

Sperm is the reproductive cell or gamete of the male. The sperm is responsible for the fertilization of a female gamete to form zygote.

The sperm cell is produced via a process called spermatogenesis which occurs in the testes.

The epididymis is a narrow, tightly-coiled tube where sperm are stored during maturation. However, the sperm enters the vas deferens after leaving the epididymis.

This law explains that in a heterozygous state of a gene, the dominant allele will always be expressed over the other. For example, in the trait of height, if T is tall and dominant, it will mask the allele of the other phenotype.
