explain the process of dialysis.. and who invented/ discovered this process?​

Answers

The history of dialysis dates back to the 1940s. The first type of dialyzer, then called the artificial kidney, was built in 1943 by Dutch physician Willem Kolff. Kolff had first gotten the idea of developing a machine to clean the blood after watching a patient suffer from kidney failure.
One needle will slowly remove blood and transfer it to a machine called a dialyser or dialysis machine. The dialysis machine is made up of a series of membranes that act as filters and a special liquid called dialysate. The membranes filter waste products from your blood, which are passed into the dialysate fluid.
The first scientific descriptions of these procedures dates back to the 19th century and came from the Scottish chemist Thomas Graham, who became known as the “Father of Dialysis.”

Answer: Phylum is at level 2.

All living organisms are classified, and the reasons for this are so that they can be examined better, to know and discover their relations, their evolutionary paths etc. while in the past there have been some more simplified classifications, the modern one is complex and well established, based on the characteristics of the organisms(living and died out).

(50pts) The evolution of the peppered moth over the last two hundred years has been studied in detail. Originally, the vast majority of peppered moths had light coloration. However, because of widespread pollution during the Industrial Revolution in England, the dark colored moths became much more common.

Question:

What specifically caused the shift in phenotype of the moths? Please explain in detail.

Answers

Answer:

The peppered moth is a temperate species of night-flying moth. Peppered moth evolution is an example of population genetics and natural selection and not artificial selection.

Explanation:

Answer:

The phenotype of the moth changed due to natural selection. During the Industrial Revolution, objects in England became a lot darker in color due to the settling of coal pollutants in the air. These light colored moths did not have good camouflage in this environment. Therefore, most of the light colored moths did not survive to reproduce. However, the dark colored moths had better camouflage, and were therefore more likely to survive and reproduce. This lead to a shift towards darker color moths, as they had a higher survival rate than the light colored moths.

choose the correct statement about the earth crust A. the earth crust is thin and could be compared to an eggshell B. most of the earth crust is only 6 km deep C. the earth crust is around 200 km deep D. the earth crust is the thickest layer​

Answers

''A. the earth's crust is thin and could be compared to an eggshell'' is the correct answer.

Why earth's crust is considered an egg shell?

The egg is considered a tiny model of the Earth. The thin shell of the egg represents the Earth's crust which is divided into plates. Both earth and egg have a thin and brittle shells. The crust of the earth is broken into various pieces like the cracked shell of a boiled egg. The mantle of the earth is like the egg white part whereas the core of the earth is present in the center like the egg yolk. The earth's crust is broken into pieces that geologists called it plates. The inside of the planet earth is layered like an egg. Scientists considered the surface of the Earth to be cracked like a big eggshell. They call these pieces tectonic plates that cover the Earth. The plates float slowly on the surface and sometimes crash with each other, and move away from each other.

So we can conclude that option A is the right answer about the earth's crust.

The processes of diffusion and active transport are both used to * break down molecules to release energy move molecules into or out of cells of the body bring molecules into cells when they are more concentrated outside of the cell move molecules against a concentration gradient, using ATP molecules

Answers

Answer:

move molecules into or out of cells of the body

Explanation:

Majorly, there are two types of transport used by living cells. These are; passive and active transport. Passive transport involves the movement of molecules down a concentration gradient without the need for energy (ATP) input. Example is DIFFUSION AND OSMOSIS.

On the other hand, active transport is a type of transport that moves molecules against a concentration gradient (low to high) with the aid of energy input (ATP). Example is sodium-pottasium proton pump.

Although there are obvious differences between these two processes (diffusion and active transport), but they both MOVE MOLECULES INTO OR OUT OF CELLS OF THE BODY.

Answer:

Explanation:

Restriction enzymes refer to enzymes that is produced by a bacteria which has the ability to cleaves DNA property to a specific restriction sequence site within the molecule.

Restriction enzyme is use to cut DNA into smaller fragments by preventing the replication of the phage DNA .

Restriction enzyme is use when there is infection or foreign materials that intrude into a bacterium,the bacterium uses it to defend itself against infections that might be cause by viruses, pathogens e.t.c.

Bacteria genome can be edited using CRISPR method. It is done with recombineering, which is a technique that uses phage recombination method to enhance homologous recombination of DNA fragments.

Where does the mRNA go after it is produced?​

Answers

Answer:

The mRNA goes after it is produced is made messenger RNA (mRNA) is a single-stranded RNA molecule that is complementary to one of the DNA strands of a gene. The mRNA is an RNA version of the gene that leaves the cell nucleus and moves to the cytoplasm where proteins are made.

Explanation:

mRNA formed in the nucleus is transported out of the nucleus and into the cytoplasm where it attaches to the ribosomes. Proteins are assembled on the ribosomes using the mRNA nucleotide sequence as a guide. Thus mRNA carries a “message” from the nucleus to the cytoplasm.

During which phases of the cell cycle are chromosomes composed of two chromatids?

Answers

Answer:

The correct phases are S phase, prophase, anaphase.  

Explanation:

The cell cycle, the sequence of events spanning the period from the completion of one cell division to the end of the next division, involves both the division of the cell nucleus (karyokinesis) and the division of the cytoplasm (cytokinesis). S phase, the next section of the interface, is marked by a dramatic increase in DNA synthesis and the synthesis of histones which are major cellular proteins bound to DNA. The cell is preparing for the start of mitosis. Chromosomes duplicate lengthwise, and each chromosome consists of two identical "chromatids."During prophase, the degree of packing of the chromatin increases, so the chromosomes become shorter and thicker and the centromeres begin to become visible. Each of the chromosomes, due to its duplication in S phase, is made up of two identical chromatids, called sister chromatids. Anaphase is the short phase, the sister chromatids begin to separate and migrate to the poles. Once the two chromatids separate, each is called a chromosome.

Humans often like to help wild animals. A marine biologist near the area where Anchor’s offspring are located has decided to feed them. He begins putting medicine in the food that keeps the pups from contracting infections common to sharks in the area. Because of this, nearly all of Anchor’s offspring survive to adulthood. Eventually, the marine biologist gets a job transfer and leaves the area. Predict what we may see in the following generation (Anchor’s grandpops). Will they still be fitter than other sharks?

Answers

Answer:

I would predict that the the following generation will have a large amount of pups that are eaten by the sharks.

This question seems like its asking about natural selection.

"Natural selection is the process when organisms better adapted to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring"

Explanation:

If the marine biologist did not give the pups medicine in the first generation, the pups that were less fit or not adaptive to the enviroment to naturally survive the infections would have died. This would have prevented these pups from passing on their genes.

The next generation would consists of pups that are more immune to the sickness or more fit for their enviroment and might experiece less pups to die.
