A group of researchers has made the claim that one particular butterfly species is the sole pollinator of a tree species and that consequently, the decline of the butterfly population will endanger the survival of the tree species. Data were collected and are summarized below. Which of the following data could best be used to either justify or refute the claim the researchers have made about the interdependence of the butterfly species and the trees?

Tree flower size Number of butterfly visits per flower per day Nectar energy per pollination visit (joules) Fruits per flower
Small 1 10 0.88
Medium 9 12 0.79
Large 55 13 0.85

a. The data comparing the fruits produced per flower with the number of butterfly visits are most useful in refuting the claim, because they show that the tree produces fruit even if the butterfly does not visit the flowers.
b. The data collected for large flowers are most useful in justifying the claim, because they show that a large number of butterflies visit flowers of this tree species, obtain energy from nectar, and cause fruit production.
c. The data comparing the number of butterfly visits with the size of the tree flowers are most useful in refuting the claim, because they show that the butterfly does not visit all types of tree flowers.
d. The data showing the nectar energy available for all sizes of flowers are most useful in justifying the claim, because they show that butterflies benefit from the relationship with the tree by obtaining energy from tree nectar.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - A. The data comparing the fruits produced per flower with the number of butterfly visits are most useful in refuting the claim, because they show that the tree produces fruit even if the butterfly does not visit the flowers.

Explanation:

In this experiment, the table shows that specific butterflies did not go to small flower trees or go once a day where is in medium and large flower trees respectively they visit more than small flowers.

Even after not visiting small flower trees the nectar energy and the fruit production is almost similar to the other two trees. This case can occur only in one case if there are one or more pollinators present in this scenario other than this type of specific butterflies.

Thus, the correct answer is - option A.

David comes into the emergency room late at night with a cut that will not stop bleeding. His mother, Rose, is worried that he has a bleeding disorder, just like his grandfather. The lab is closed, so the doctor cannot order a specialized coagulation test. However, the hospital does have a sample of blood from a classic hemophiliac. What is the simplest test the doctor could perform using David's blood to determine if it is missing factor VIII activity

Answers

Answer:

The doctor can mix a blood sample from the hemophiliac patient with David's blood.

Explanation:

This test is called Mixture Test and is performed quickly when there is no time to do more detailed and accurate tests. In the mixture text, two blood samples are mixed, where one is from a patient with hemophilia. when mixing the two samples, the doctor observes whether there were coagulation inhibitors in the patient's blood, and can then draw conclusions about the presence of hemophilia in the patient.

A test tube is filled with water and a green plant called Elodea. When the plant is exposed to sunlight, it begins to produce bubbles. What is the most likely conclusion for the identity of the gas in the bubbles? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - oxygen.

Explanation:

The experiment of a test tube and elodea plant in which a plant of elodea is placed in a test tube filled with water and exposed to the sunlight and one is placed in the dark. The plant that is exposed to the sunlight starts forming a gas that can be seen as bubbles in the test tube.

This experiment shows the process of photosynthesis that converts sunlight into glucose with the help of carbon dioxide and water and produces oxygen as a byproduct that releases from the plants.

Thus, the gas that forms in the test tube in the form of bubble is oxygen which is released in the process of photosynthesis.

Starting with the European settlers, humans have introduced earthworms from Europe and Asia into North American forests. These introductions continue through the transport of soil that contains non-native earthworms, such as during construction and through the release of non-native earthworms used for fishing. The effects of non-native earthworms are especially large in forests that did not have any native earthworms. For example, forests of the Great Lakes region did not previously have earthworms until humans introduced them. When non-native earthworms are introduced, the thick layer of leaf litter disappears quickly, thereby altering biogeochemical cycles. You conduct an experiment to compare the nitrogen cycle in soils with and without non-native earthworms. Predict the results of your experiment.

Answers

Answer:

The soils with earthworms will show a faster rate of ammonification

Explanation:

Originally, the nitrogen released by organisms when they die (or excrete waste products) is organic nitrogen, e.i., amino acids and nitrogenous bases in DNA. Ammonification is the property that decomposer organisms have to mineralize organic nitrogen in order to produce inorganic nitrogen in the form of ammonium (NH4+). In agroecosystems, earthworm activity can increase the ammonification rate. For example, Lumbricus terrestris is an invasive earthworm (which is native to Europe) that has been shown to increase both ammonification and nitrification (nitrate production) rates in the soil of different ecosystems.

molecule of
ribosome produces the final product,
Retroviruses do the opposite. They use the enzyme reverse
transcriptase to use a template of
to produce

Answers

Answer:

In most cells, DNA directs the production of a molecule of mRNA which then enters a ribosome. The ribosome produces the final product, a protein. Retroviruses do the opposite. They use the enzyme reverse transcriptase to use a template of mRNA to produce DNA.

Explanation:

The central dogma of molecular biology describes how a cell uses its genetic information to synthesize a protein. The first step called 'transcription' consists of using an RNA polymerase enzyme and a fragment of DNA (i.e., gene) as a template to synthesize an RNA molecule, usually a messenger RNA (mRNA). Subsequently, the genetic code in the mRNA sequence is read by the ribosomes in order to produce a protein, a process known as 'translation'. Retroviruses are viruses that have the ability to integrate into the host genome by using a reverse transcriptase enzyme that allows reverse transcription of mRNA to complementary DNA, which then integrates into the host's genome.

The correct options in the blanks are DNA, mRNA, Protein, mRNA, and DNA respectively.

What is gene expression?

It is the process by which cells produce protein from DNA molecules. DNA produces RNA which contains codes to produce amino acids.

The mRNA enters the ribosome which produced protein using the codons of mRNA.

Retroviruses have special machinery to produce the DNA from mRNA.

Therefore, the correct options in the blanks are DNA, mRNA, Protein, mRNA, and DNA respectively.

The student observes that all the plants in the F1 generation have pink flowers. The student then crosses the F1 plants with one another and records 64 red-flowered plants, 107 pink-flowered plants and 53 white-flowered plants. What is the inheritance pattern for flower color in these poinsettias

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - incomplete dominance.

Explanation:

The incomplete dominance is the pattern of inheritance where the recessive allele is not completely masked by the dominant allele in the heterozygous condition and makes a mixed or blend expression of both dominant and recessive traits.

In the given question, the pattern for the flower color is incomplete dominance as in the cross between the red and white flower poinsettias produce pink instead of red in F1 generation where the condition is heterozygous. The phenotypic ratio of in F2 generation in this type of inheritance is 1:2:1 which is approximately similar in this case 64:107:53.

Hope this help happy Saturday

The option that correctly describes the relative dissolved oxygen concentration in the flask with algae will compare to the control flask is C. The dissolved oxygen in the flask with algae will be higher in the light but lower in the dark.

What factors can increase the amount of dissolved oxygen in water? Temperature, pressure, salinity and biological organisms are the major contributing factors that affect dissolved oxygen. If the medium contains a photosynthetic plant that too in the presence of light, then this will increase the dissolved oxygen. On the other hand, increased salinity and warm water decrease the amount of oxygen dissolved in water. As given above, the flasks containing the green algae and water are given 12 hours of light and then put 12 hours in darkness. The flask that contains the algae contains more dissolved oxygen during the light hours as algae are photosynthesis in nature and thus, they will do photosynthesis during 12 hours of lighting. But, the control flask contains only water and thus, there will be no addition of dissolved oxygen.

Thus, we can conclude that flask that contains algae have more amount of oxygen dissolved than the control flask containing only water. During 12 hours of darkness, no photosynthesis occurs and hence algae containing flask will have a lower amount of dissolved oxygen.

Which type of mining would NOT be used to mine coal

Answers

Answer:

Coal is mined in two different ways: from deep underground and in

strip mines. In both cases the land that is mined is leased by the coal companies, while the ownership remains in public hands. Deep mines are reached through a shaft into the ground, through which miners gain access to the coal seam and out of which comes the coal. Strip mines are used when the coal seam is near the surface. The topsoil and other overburden materials are removed by giant power shovels and piled out of the way. The shovels then dig out the coal. After the coal has been mined, there may be environmental reclamation to return the land to its original state, thus allowing others continued use of it for their own purposes. This involves refilling the hole, spreading topsoil, and then planting new vegetation on it.
