Potatoes can be genetically modified so that they are _________ to plant-eating beetle?
A. Toxic
B. Tacky
C. Tasty
D. None of these

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A or D

Explanation:

You would want to genetically modify the plant so that the beetles wouldn't want to eat it. If it is toxic, the bugs would stay away from it. However, you could also just modify the plant so that it doesn't taste good for the bugs, in which case you should pick D. Choose whichever answer you think is best.

The children in a middle school classroom are all exposed to chicken pox one week. Among these students are John, who had chicken pox when he was much younger, and Sara, who has never had chicken pox. Which student do you expect would be less likely to become ill with chicken pox following this exposure and why? (5 points) John: he has naturally acquired active immunity to chicken pox from his previous exposure. Sara: she has naturally acquired passive immunity to chicken pox from exposure to other students. John: the pathogens that cause chicken pox will no longer be able to enter his body. Sara: since she has not suffered from chicken pox, her immune system is probably stronger than Johns.

Answers

Answer:

John: he has naturally acquired active immunity to chicken pox from previous exposure.

Explanation:

Your body naturally has some immunity to things that aren't you, but when you get sick with a specific pathogen, your body begins to make antibodies that specifically recognize that pathogen.  Each antibody only recognizes one pathogen, and it floats around waiting to find it again so it can tell your body to kill it before you get sick again.  This is why we become immune to chicken pox; after the first time you beat it, your body has the labeled antibodies and it can quickly destroy the pathogen before you get sick again.

Answer:

John: he has naturally acquired active immunity to chicken pox from his previous exposure.

In Rabbits, black fur (B) is dominant to white (b), and long ears (E) are dominant to short ears (e). What is the expected phenotypic ratio of the offspring of a BBee x bbEE cross if these alleles sort independently?

Answers

Answer:

A. 16 black/long ears, 0 black/short ears, 0 White/long ears, 0 White/short ears

Explanation:

This question is a typical dihybrid cross i.e. involving two genes in rabbits. One coding for fur color and the other for ear length. The allele for black fur (B) is dominant to allele for white fur (b) and allele for long ear (E) is dominant to alelle for short ear (e).

In this question, a cross between two rabbits with genotypes: BBee x bbEE is performed. The following combination of gametes will be produced by each rabbit:

BBee - Be, Be, Be, and Be

bbEE - bE, bE, bE, and bE

Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following proportion of offsprings will be produced:

All BbEe offsprings, which have a black fur and long ear phenotype.

Hence, the phenotypic ratio is 16 black/long ears, 0 black/short ears, 0 White/long ears, 0 White/short ears

Answers

Answer:

excretory system  and circulatory system

Explanation:

Blood is  part of circulatory system and as it move through various organs it exchanges the gases i.e give oxygen to the cell and take carbon dioxide from them. After taking CO2, the  blood becomes impure and hence it passes through the kidney before going to the heart. Kidney is part of excretory system which removes carbon dioxide from blood and thus purifies it.

How does the process of gel electrophoresis produce DNA fingerprints? An electric current sorts DNA nucleotides according to their bases. O An electric current cuts a DNA strand into segments of various lengths O An electric current causes segments of DNA to move at different rates O An electric current supplies a charge to uncharged segments of DNA ​

Answers

Answer:

Gel electrophoresis

Explanation:

Gel electrophoresis is a technique used to separate DNA fragments according to their size. DNA samples are loaded into wells (indentations) at one end of a gel, and an electric current is applied to pull them through the gel. DNA fragments are negatively charged, so they move towards the positive electrode.

Scientist observed an organism X and noted down the mode of nutrition as follows X secretes enzymes outside its body and digests food with these enzymes. It then absorbs the digested food. Which organism was observed by the scientist?

Answers

Answer:

Hydra

Explanation:

The mode of nutrition being described in this question is EXTRACELLULAR DIGESTION, in which a food substance is chemically broken down externally. The organisms being portrayed is HYDRA. Hydra is an animal that secretes digestive enzymes that work on the food extracellularly (outside the organism), then absorb the digested food.

Therefore, the organism X observed by the scientist whose mode of nutrition is to secrete enzymes outside its body and digests food with these enzymes, then absorbs the digested food is the HYDRA.
