Answer:
K (carrying capacity)
Explanation:
In logistic growth, the population growth decreases as population size approaches its maximum value, i.e., when the carrying capacity of the environment is reached. In consequence, the carrying capacity can be defined as the maximum population size in a particular environment, which depends on a given resource (e.g., food, habitat, water, etc).
The logistic equation for logistic growth is: dN/dt = rN [K - N/K] >>
dN/dt = change in population size in a given time interval
N = population size
r = intrinsic rate of increase
K = carrying capacity
In cats, some are black, some are orange, and some are calico (fur that is both black and orange) All calico cats are always females. This trait represents two inheritance patterns. This two and explain how you know.
please help.
Calico cats are predominantly female because they’re colouring is related to the X chromosome.
Two X chromosomes are needed for a cat to have that distinctive tri-colour coat.If a cat has an XX pair, she will be female.Male cats have an XY chromosome pair, so they can’t be Calicos.Have a great day <3 (I love cats)
Answer: In cats, one of several genes controlling fur color is located on the X chromosome. The gene has two versions, or alleles. One form of the gene codes for orange fur (XB), and the other form codes for black fur (Xb). While it's difficult to say which allele is dominant and which is recessive, since only one is ever expressed (see below), let's say, for the sake of argument, that orange is dominant to black. Ordinarily, this would mean that an animal inheriting one copy of each gene (genotype XBXb) should have orange fur. Surprisingly, a female cat heterozygous at that locus (XBXb) will not be orange. Instead, her coat will be a patchwork of orange and black, a condition known as tortoiseshell. Male color expression is straightforward. Because only one allele exists for the gene in each cell, it will be expressed. And all males have only B or only b. There are no heterozygotes, because the Y does not carry the allele.

Select ALL the correct answers.
A pitcher for a professional baseball team allows runs in the first nine games he starts this season. Let A be the set of the number of
runs allowed by the pitcher in his first nine starts.
A = {1, 4, 2, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 1}
In the tenth game he starts, he allows 9 runs. Let B represent the set of the number of runs allowed in all ten games he has started.
Select the true statements.
The median of B is 1 run more than the median of A.
The interquartile range of B is greater than the interquartile range of A.
The interquartile range of A is 1 less than the interquartile range of B.
The median of A is the same as the median of B.
Including the runs allowed in the tenth game does not cause the spread of the data to
change.
Answer:
(b) The interquartile range of B is greater than the interquartile range of A.
(d) The median of A is the same as the median of B.
Explanation:
Given
[tex]A = \{1, 4, 2, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 1\}[/tex]
[tex]10th\ run = 9[/tex]
So:
[tex]B = \{1, 4, 2, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 1,9\}[/tex]
Required
Select all true statements
(a) & (d) Median Comparisons
[tex]A = \{1, 4, 2, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 1\}[/tex] [tex]B = \{1, 4, 2, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 1,9\}[/tex]
[tex]n = 9[/tex] [tex]n = 10[/tex]
Arrange the data:
[tex]A = \{1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2,3, 4\}[/tex] [tex]B = \{1,1,1,1,2,2,2,3,4,9\}[/tex]
[tex]Median = \frac{n + 1}{2}th[/tex]
[tex]Median = \frac{9 + 1}{2}th[/tex] [tex]Median = \frac{10 + 1}{2}th[/tex]
[tex]Median = \frac{10}{2}th[/tex] [tex]Median = \frac{11}{2}th[/tex]
[tex]Median = 5th[/tex] [tex]Median = 5.5}th[/tex] --- average of 5th and 6th
[tex]Median = 2[/tex] [tex]Median = \frac{2+2}{2} = 2[/tex]
Option (d) is correct because both have a median of: 2
(b) & (c) Interquartile Range Comparisons
[tex]A = \{1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2,3, 4\}[/tex] [tex]B = \{1,1,1,1,2,2,2,3,4,9\}[/tex]
[tex]n = 9[/tex] [tex]n = 10[/tex]
First, calculate the lower quartile (Q1)
[tex]Q_1 = \frac{n + 1}{4}th[/tex][Odd n] [tex]Q_1 = \frac{n}{4}th[/tex] [Even n]
[tex]Q_1 = \frac{9 + 1}{4}th[/tex] [tex]Q_1 = \frac{10}{4}th[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = \frac{10}{4}th[/tex] [tex]Q_1 = 2.5[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 2.5th[/tex]
This means that:
[tex]Q_1 = 2nd + 0.5(3rd - 2nd)[/tex] [tex]Q_1 = 2nd + 0.5(3rd - 2nd)[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 1 + 0.5(1- 1)[/tex] [tex]Q_1 = 1+ 0.5(1 - 1)[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 1[/tex] [tex]Q_1 = 1[/tex]
Next, calculate the upper quartile (Q3)
[tex]Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(n + 1)th[/tex] [Odd n] [tex]Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(n)th[/tex] [Even n]
[tex]Q_3 = \frac{3}{4}(9 + 1)th[/tex] [tex]Q_3 = \frac{30}{4}th[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = \frac{30}{4}th[/tex] [tex]Q_3 = 7.5th[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 7.5th[/tex]
This means that:
[tex]Q_3 = 7th + 0.5(8th- 7th)[/tex] [tex]Q_3 = 7th + 0.5(8th- 7th)[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 2 + 0.5(3- 2)[/tex] [tex]Q_3 = 2+ 0.5(4 - 2)[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 2.5[/tex] [tex]Q_3 = 3[/tex]
The interquartile range is [tex]IQR = Q_3 - Q_1[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]IQR = 2.5 - 1[/tex] [tex]IQR = 3 - 1[/tex]
[tex]IQR = 1.5[/tex] [tex]IQR =2[/tex]
(b) is true because B has a greater IQR than A
(e) This is false because some spread measures (which include quartiles and the interquartile range) changed when the 10th data is included.
The upper quartile and the interquartile range of A and B are not equal

b) Two cysteine residues can form hydrogen bonds.
c) Side chains connect distant parts of a polypeptide chain and introduce loops into the chain.
d) Threonine and glutamine can form hydrogen bonds.
e) Hydrogen bonds stabilize quaternary protein structure by holding together several protein strands.
Answer:
a) Side chains that can form hydrogen bonds are located on the outside of a protein, where they can stabilize tertiary structure by forming hydrogen bonds with water.
Explanation:
A hydrogen bond occurs between a hydrogen atom and four other elements. The side chain hydrogen bonds are resulted from the tertiary arrangement of structural components of the proteins.
The side chain hydrogen bond are present at the outside of the protein at places where the water forming the hydrogen bond can stabilize the tertiary structure.
Consider a cross between a plant with two flower colors, yellow and red. Yellow (Y) exhibits complete dominance over red (y). It also has either single blossoms or double blossoms, single blossoms (S) exhibit complete dominance over double blossoms (s). A dihybrid yellow, single blossomed flower is crossed with a red flowered and double blossomed plant. You observe the following phenotype frequencies among the 1545 offspring plants:
500 yellow flowers and single blossom plants
515 red flowers and double blossom plants
260 yellow flowers and double blossom plants 270 red flower and single blossom plants.
What is the recombination frequency between these two genes?
a. (260+270) 1545
b. 270/1545
c. 1545/ (260+270)
d. 260/1545
e. (500+515)/1545
f. 1545/260
g. 1545/270
From these results one can conclude that:_______.
a. the two genes are linked
b. the two genes are not linked
c. if the genes are linked, they are separated far enough apart to appear to assort independently
Answer:
1) option a is correct. (260+270)/1545
(Note about this option: In the statement, it is written as (260+270) 1545. Lacks the division symbol, / )
2) From these results one can conclude that the two genes are linked (option a)
Explanation:
To know if two genes are linked, we must observe the progeny distribution. If heterozygous individuals, whose genes assort independently, are test crossed, they produce a progeny with equal phenotypic frequencies 1:1:1:1. If we observe a different distribution, phenotypes appearing in different proportions, we can assume linked genes in the double heterozygote parent.
We might verify which are the recombinant gametes produced by the di-hybrid, and we will be able to recognize them by looking at the phenotypes with lower frequencies in the progeny. Phenotypes with the highest frequencies represent the parental gametes.
To calculate the recombination frequency, we will use the following formula: P = Recombinant number / Total of individuals.
In the present example:
Parental) YySs x yyss
Gametes) YS parental type ys, ys, ys, ys
ys parental type
Ys recombinant type
yS recombinante type
The total number of individuals in the offspring: 1545
Phenotypic class Number of offspring
500 Y-S- (parental)515 yyss (parental)260 Y-ss (recombinant)270 yyS- (recombinant)According to this information, the phenotypic frequencies of the progeny differ from the phenotypic ratio 1:1:1:1. We can assume then, that these genes are linked.
The recombination frequency is:
P = Recombinant number / Total of individuals
P = 260 + 270 / 1545
P = 530/1545
P = 0.343
The genetic distance between genes is 0.343 x 100= 34.4 MU.
ESP: actuan las hormonas solo sobre celulas o pueden actuar sobre otras estructuras?
ENG: do hormones act only on cells or can they act on other structures?
Answer:
Hormones act only on cells not structures.
Explanation:
Hormones act only on cells and they do not act on other structures because there are specific cells have receptors for that particular hormone. Some hormones bind itself to the receptors on the surface of target cells whereas other hormones enter the cells and bind itself to the receptors present in the cytoplasm or nucleus of the cell.

Consider a plant with the following characteristics. Round leaves (R) are dominant to pointed leaves (r). White flowers (W) are dominant to pink flowers (w). Plants heterozygous for both traits are crossed. What is the probability of obtaining a plant with pointed leaves and pink flowers
Answer:
.0625 or 6.25%
Explanation:
Find the probability for the plant to have pointed leaves. If the two parent plants are heterzygous, then the likelihood the plant has a recessive characteristic is 25%, 1/4, or .25 for our calculations.Find the probability for the plant to be pink. If the two parent plants are heterzygous, the likelihood the plant has another recessive characterisitc is again 25%, 1/4, or .25 for our calculations.Multiply them together.

Write a scientific explanation to explain how natural selection and adaptation increase or decreases the chances of survival for the mice if they entered one another’s environment.
Answer:
Natural selection is a factor of biological evolution, by means of which individuals who possess a certain characteristic tend to prevail over those who lack such characteristic. Thus, by reproducing, individuals with favorable characteristics end up imposing their own set of characteristics, taking control of the environment in which they develop and relegating other individuals or condemning them to their extinction or displacement.
Thus, in the case, if some mice entered the environment of others, most likely they would not be able to adapt to the conditions to which the original group of that environment had previously adapted. In this way, natural selection itself would make the new mice end up disappearing from it, in favor of the mice that already lived there and that, therefore, had adapted their characteristics to those of the environment.

why do we commonly see isotherms on local weather broadcasts?
Explanation:
Isotherms are lines of constant or equal temperature. They are often used on weather maps by meteorologists to give a large scale view of temperatures across the U.S. If you have ever looked at a weather map in a newspaper, the isotherms are used to divide the color-filled temperatures.
How many amino acids are there in A peptide, B peptide and C peptide in human insulin???
Answer:
Insulin is composed of an A chain of 21 amino acids and a B chain of 30 amino acids. C-peptide is a peptide composed of 31 amino acids
Explanation:
Insulin is composed of an A chain of 21 amino acids and a B chain of 30 amino acids, the chains being held together by two disulfide bonds. A third disulfide bond is present within the A chain. Human insulin differs from porcine insulin by a single amino acid and from beef insulin by three amino acids.
Explanation:
Dashed circles around either an R or K indicate sites of peptidase cleavage that result in generation of the mature insulin that is comprised by two separate peptides: the A chain with 21 and the B chain with 30 amino acids. A third C peptide with 21 amino acids served as a linker between the A and B chains.

Complete the following statement from what you have learned about the motor unit. In some neurodegenerative diseases the lower motor neuron cell bodies die and the remaining lower motor neurons sprout processes that innervate the neuromuscular synapses vacated by the dead lower motor neurons. In these muscles, the size of the motor unit ____________ and the strength of the muscle contraction generated by individually activating each surviving motor neuron _________.
Answer:
The correct answer is - increase, increase.
Explanation:
In some neurodegenerative diseases, some lower motor neuron cells die and the remaining lower motor neurons continuing the process of the vacated dead motor neuron cells to innervate the neuron and muscle synapses.
The size of the motor unit increases and due to the innervations of the new axon
increases the strength of the muscle contraction occurred by individually activating each surviving motor neuron. Here multiple motor units will be controlled by a single neuron.

Which of the following is an example of a learned response? OA A child figures out how to ride a bicycle. O B. An adult salmon is able to return to the river where it hatched. OC. A plant turns to follow the sun during the day. OD. A man blinks when an object is tossed toward his face.
Answer:
Explanation:
I would say A. Learning to ride a bicycle is a process of getting on and falling off. You have no idea how to do it properly without practice. That's learned.
But look out for D. I'm not sure that that isn't instinctive. Somewhere along the line I think even a baby knows not to let his/her eyes be touched. Is it learned? It's close but A is a much better answer.
The salmon is instinctive. The plant doesn't learn to turn towards the sun. It does so because more food is produced.
Yes, it's A.
A is the only option that is not instinctual. Riding a bicycle is something that has to be taught (and even if you weren't taught to ride a bike, you had to figure it out by trial and error.)
The other options are instinctual and reflexive responses. The salmon returning to the river is a behavior that is pretty much hard-wired into the salmon's brain. The plant turns to follow the sun because it is a source of light and energy.
The other user expressed uncertainty as to option D, but in fact, option D is very much a reflexive, instinctual response as well. To flinch or blink when something abruptly moves towards you is not a choice or something you have to be taught — it's a reflex, something you can't control.

What can you tell about bacteria that have been Gram stained?
A) Microscopic morphology
B) Macroscopic morphology
C) Gram reaction
D) A and C
Answer:
D) A and C
Explanation:
Gram staining is a laboratory technique used for bacterial species. It is used to differentiate between two groups of bacteria based on the components of their cell wall. Gram staining was developed by a scientist called Christian Gram in the year 1884. In the gram stain procedure, the following occurs:
- Due to the thick peptidoglycan component of their cell wall, GRAM POSITIVE bacteria retains the crystal violet due and stain VIOLET.
- On the contrary, due to the thin peptidoglycan component of their cell wall, GRAM NEGATIVE bacteria do not retain the crystal violet dye and hence stain, RED.
Based on this, a bacteria that has been gram stained has been tested for its GRAM REACTION and microscopic morphological characteristics, since it is a microbe.
