Answers

Answer 1
I hope this works! :) I gave a longer summary and then a short summary.

A longer explanation: Basically, scientists have found a gene that may be responsible for rabbits’ limb movements— specifically, to a ‘condition’ where rabbits have been doing handstands instead of hopping.

They looked into the gene and it isn’t specific to rabbits. When missing this specific gene, mice — like the rabbits — were found to do handstands instead of their regular movement. Although the affected bunnies can move somewhat normally when ‘walking,’ when attempting to hop quickly (something bunnies do a lot) they have trouble due to this strange hand standing.

Basically the studies found, when breeding regular ‘hopping’ females with the hand standing males, that there is a gene (a protein / lack of thereof) responsible for this strange mutation. Scientists think that, if they can find the connection between the lack of this specific protein and how it affects movement (aka why it makes these bunnies do handstands) then they could learn more about the spinal cord and how animals move, which could be useful in many medical fields, since even humans need harmonized movements to run.

SO, long story short:
Scientists have been researching a gene, specifically in rabbits, which affects limb movement— the rabbits do handstands instead of hops. They hope that learning more about the connection between the lack of a certain protein and limb movement could help us understand animals’ movements, which would help further many studies in the medical field regarding muscles, movements and limb harmonization / coordination.

Answers

Answer: A cell spends most of its time in what is called interphase, and during this time it grows, replicates its chromosomes, and prepares for cell division. The cell then leaves interphase, undergoes mitosis, and completes its division.

Explanation:

In a study published in the journal Nature, scientists studied eight ponds in Florida: four that were populated by a species of fish and four that were not. As they studied the ponds, they noted that the areas around the four fish-populated ponds showed decreased populations of dragonflies and dragonfly larvae, whereas the four without fish showed abnormally large populations of dragonflies and larvae. Dragonflies feed on bees, butterflies, and other pollinators.

Predict what would happen to the rate of pollination of flowers in a field next to a pond with no tish.

Answers

Answer: the rate of pollination of flower, in a field next to a pond with no fish, will DECREASE.

Explanation:

POLLINATION is defined as the process by which flowering plants, through the aid of external agents such as insects,wind, water and other animals, are able to transfer pollen grains from an anther to a receptive stigma. Insects are the most common pollinators. They visit flowers to obtain nectar and pollen as source of food. Flowers use various features, such as colour and scent, to attract and guide insects to the food source within them. In the process of reaching their source of food, insects bring about pollination.

From the study conducted by scientist in Florida, eight(8) ponds where subjected to the the study. The first four (4) ponds had species of fishes that fed on dragonflies and dragonfly larvae, hence the reason for a decrease in the population of the dragon flies in the area around it. While the remaining four (4) ponds had NO fish and the area around it is populated with dragonflies and dragonfly larvae. This is so because of the absence of fish.

It was then noted that the dragon lies fed of the insect pollinators such as the bees and butterflies. Since these dragonflies and its larvae are abundant in the field which is close to the pond with no fish, they will grossly depend on the insect pollinators as their source of food thereby decreasing the rate of pollination in the field next to the pond with no fish.

8. Extend your thinking: Hydrolysis of the carbohydrates you eat begins in your mouth as you chew. How do you think this process might be affected if a person’s salivary glands were unable to produce saliva, which is mostly composed of water?

Answers

Answer:

Slow down the break down of carbohydrate.

Explanation:

Hydrolysis of the carbohydrates will be affected if a person’s salivary glands were unable to produce saliva because saliva has enzyme that speed up the digestion rate of carbohydrates. If the saliva did not produced by the organism's salivary glands, the hydrolysis or break down of the carbohydrates   did not occur in the mouth and as a result the body takes more time for the complete decomposition or break down of carbohydrates.

Be sure to answer all parts. The net reproductive rate, R0, of a population can be used to predict whether a population will grow or shrink over time. If R0 is greater than 1 then a population is growing; if it is less than 1, the population is shrinking; and if it is equal to one, then the population is at equilibrium. The size of the next generation (Nt 1) of a population can be determined by multiplying the net reproductive rate by the current population size, N. Part 1 out of 2 Given a current population size of 788 and a net reproductive rate of 1.00, what would be the size of the population in the next generation

Answers

Answer:

N (t) = 788 individuals

Explanation:

There are some parameters to consider when analyzing the evolution of a population in time regarding its size. Some of them are the generational time -T-, the intrinsic growth rate per capita -r₀-, the net reproductive rate -R₀-, the reproductive value -V₀-. among others.

To obtain the net reproductive rate -R₀- of a population, we must relate the contribution of individuals of each age to the next generation, with the possibility that those individuals reach that age.

It can also be considered the media of female offspring that each female can produce throughout its whole life.

You can also think about it as a quantity by which the population abundance will increase, decrease, or remain the same in the followings generations. And this concept is related to what is stated in the problem.

If R₀>1the population size increasesIf R₀<1 the population size decreases If R₀=1 ⇒ the population is in equilibrium. Its size remains the same.

According to the given information, we can use different formulas to calculate R₀

R₀ = N(t) / N(0) ------> (N0 being the population size at time zero, and Nt in a

                                    certain generation)

R₀ = sum (lx * mx)---> (Lx being the survival rate and mx the fertility rate)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To answer this question, instead of calculating the R₀ value, we need to calculate Nt, which is the population size at t generation. In this example, is the following generation, so t=1.

We already know that N₀ = 788 individuals and that R₀=1.

By clearing the equation R₀ = N(t) / N(0), we can get the Nt value.  

N (t) = N₀ x R₀

N(t) = 788 x 1

N(t) = 788 individuals

The population size at time 0 and time 1 is the same. This is because the R₀ value = 1, meaning that the population is in equilibrium. It does not increase either decrease. Probably there are as many deaths as births.

properly
yes

Answers

Answer:

C. Each cell needs to receive a complete copy of the chromosomes in order for the cell to work properly

Explanation:

The model in this question depicts the process of DNA replication, which is the process whereby an identical copy of DNA is made. Based on the model in the question, one (1) individual chromosome forms two (2) sister chromatids per chromosome. Each sister chromatid contains the replicated DNA.

This process is very important and must occur prior to any cell division because every cell needs to receive a complete copy of the chromosomes in order for the cell to work properly. For example, each human cell must receive 23 pairs of chromosome or 46 chromosomes in order to function well and this is ensured by DNA replication.
