Which statement about venation is INCORRECT?
Some flowering plants have leaves that lack venation even though the stems and roots have vascular bundles.
Venation is important for delivering water to leaf cells and taking sugars to the stem.
Venation refers to arrangement of the veins within a leaf.
Venation patterns include pinnate, palmate and dichotomous.
In general, monocots exhibit parallel venation.
Answer:
Some flowering plants have leaves that lack venation even though the stems and roots have vascular bundles.
Explanation:
Venation refers to the arrangement of the veins in the leaf of a plant which are involved in the transport of material in the plants.
The xylem present in leaves transports water to the leaf whereas phloem transports sugar from the leaves to different parts of the plants. In angiosperms, no plants are known whose leaves lack the veins but stem and root possess the vascular bundles.
Monocot is characterised by their parallel veins whereas dicots possess reticulate veins. Also, the compound leaves possess one of the three types of venation that are palmate, pinnate and dichotomous.
Since no angiosperm posses, veinless leaves, therefore, is the correct answer.

In 1668 Francesco Redi did a series of experiments on spontaneous generation. He began by putting similar pieces of meat into eight identical jars. Four jars were left open to the air, and four were sealed. He then did the same experiment with one variation: instead of sealing four of the jars completely, he covered them with gauze (the gauze will exclude the flies while allowing the meat to be exposed to air). In both experiments, he monitored the jars and recorded whether or not maggots (young flies) appeared in the meat.
Refer to the paragraph on Redi's experiments. In both experiments, fies appeared in all of the open jars and only in the open jars. Which one of the following statements is correct?
A. The experiment was inconclusive because it did not nun long enough
B. The experiment supports the hypothesis that spontaneous generation occurs in rotting meat.
C. The expertment supports the hwpothesis that maggots arise only from eggs laid by adult flhes
D. The experiment was inconclusive because Redi used only one kind of meat
Answer:
The experiment supports the hypothesis that maggots arise only from eggs laid by adult flies; that is only from reproduction and development.
Explanation:
The objective of this experimental set up by Francesco Radi was to demonstrate the concept of spontaneous generation. He concluded that, Maggots are not spontaneous generated from rotten meats, rather they are products of eggs laid by houseflies who visited the rotten meat to lay eggs. The maggots (larva) are products of complete metamorphosis, from egg to larva to pupa and adult. This is an indication that, new organisms are not formed form spontaneously, but are products of well-defined process of reproduction and development which in this case is a complete metamorphosis.
Based on this premise he concluded that, if maggots were products of laid eggs, then they should appear only when rotten meat is exposed to open air.However,if they are f products of spontaneous generation they should appear irrespective of the meat exposure to air or not.
Explain why detritivores, decomposers and omnivores are not assigned trophic level
Answer:
They can be found in several trophic levels, as they are related with several trophic level, hence, they cannot be placed on a specific trophic level.
Explanation:
A trophic level is a specific position occupied by a group of organisms on a good chain in relation to their nutrition.
Dentrivores feed on the waste of other organisms and cannot be really placed on a specific trophic level, likewise decomposers, of which they feed and decompose the body of organisms.
Omnivores feed on both plants and animals, which includes producers and consumers. Placing omnivores on a specific trophic level would not be really straightforward also.

_____________8. area where weblike pre-keratin filaments first appear.
_____________9. deep layer of the dermis
_____________10. layer that secretes a glycolipid that prevents water loss from the skin
Answer and Explanation:
b. stratum corneum: 5. layer including scalelike dead cells, full of keratin, that constantly slough off.
The most superficial epidermal layer conformed of squamous, plane, thin cells with keratin in their cytoplasm, that are continuously released. These cells are replaced by new cells that have the same destiny.
d. stratum lucidum
: 1. layer of translucent cells in thick skin containing dead keratinocytes
Also known as the transparent layer, is only located in the thicker parts of the skin, such as the hands´ palms and the feets´ soles. This layer is so thin that the cells´ edges and some ties their nucleus can not be identified. Keratinocytes are diaphanous and are grouped together. They lack a nucleus and the cytoplasm is filled with a gelatinous substance, eleidin, which will transform into keratin.
b. stratum corneum and d. stratum lucidum 2. two layers containing dead cells.
c. stratum granulosum: 6. layer named for the numerous granules present.
These layer cells contain granules filled with keratohyalin that is needed for keratin production. These cells are arranged in two to four layers, and they begin to degenerate. This is why they show high lysosomes enzymes concentration. This is also the layer where it begins keratinization.
e. stratum spinosum: 10. layer that secretes a glycolipid that prevents water loss from the skin.
8 to 10 irregular cell layers. These cells are rich in DNA necessary for proteinic synthesis that ends in keratin production, and Langerhans cells that belong to the immunity system. This stratus is also known as "Malpigio stratum". It also produces a glycoprotein that helps to prevent water loss.
a. stratum basale 4. epidermal layer exhibiting the most rapid cell division.
7. location of melanocytes and tactile epithelial cells.
Stratum basale is the innermost germinative, single, basal layer of the epidermis composed of basal cuboidal-shaped cells. These cells are the precursor of keratinocytes, this is why this layer is also called germinativum. In this basal layer, there are also Merkel cells as well as melanocytes. The former associated with nerve fibers, transmit part of the touch, and the latter, form the pigment responsible for skin coloring and tanning, melanin.
f. papillary layer: 3. dermal layer responsible for fingerprints.
This stratum is a thin superior layer in the dermis. It has conjunctive tissues and blood vessels that nourish the skin and helps to control the temperature. It´s surface forms papilla that increases the mechanical union between dermis and epidermis.
g. reticular layer: 9. deep layer of the dermis
The inner and thicker layer of the dermis. It is characterized by it´s thick, irregular bundles of collagen fibers and elastic fibers. These are not randomly oriented but forming the regular skin tightening lines known as Langer lines.
h. epidermis as a whole: 7. location of melanocytes and tactile epithelial cells.
Composed of a plane stratified keratinized epithelium that constantly grows and maintains a normal thickness by the process of peeling. The Epidermis is made up of five cell layers, which have different functions: Stratum basale, stratum spinosum, stratum granulosum, stratum lucidum, and stratum corneum.
i. dermis as a whole: composed of conjunctive dense tissue that provides support, resistance, and thickness to the skin.
What brings greater concentrations of dissolved nutrients to the ocean surface?
Answer: Upwelling
Explanation:
Upwelling is a process of movement of dense, cold and nutrient rich water from the bottom of the ocean to the surface layers due to wind currents. This process replaces the warm and nutrient deficient water from the surface.
This process is useful for the growth of phytoplanktons and other sea plants growing in the surface layer of oceanic water.

Explanation:
Macromolecules in the cell can often interact transiently as a result of noncovalent interactions. These weak interactions also produce stable, highly specific interactions between molecules. Which of the factors below is the most significant in determining whether the interaction will be transient or stable?
a) the size of each molecule
b) the number of chemical bonds between the molecules
c) the concentration of each molecule
d) rate of synthesis
Answer:
The correct answer is option b) "the number of chemical bonds between the molecules".
Explanation:
Chemical bonds are the forces that enable the formation of compounds. The number of chemical bonds is a determining factor to know if an interaction will be transient of stable. The more chemical bonds the more stable an interaction will be. Few chemical bonds between molecules makes an interaction unstable and easy to break, enabling transient interactions that are key to certain biological pathways.

Mutant 5-TAGTCCAAGCTTAGGCATCT-3
Answer:
C. WT 5-TAGTCGAAGCTTAGGCATCT-3
Mutant 5-TAGTTGAAGCTTAGGCATCT-3
Explanation:
In the wild type, the DNA sequence encodes the following aminoacidic segment: SRSLGI; while the mutant form has a stop codon in the second codon (TGA). A stop codon is a trinucleotide sequence in the messenger RNA (mRNA) that indicates a stop signal in protein synthesis. There are three types of stop codons: UGA, UAG and UAA, where U represents Uracile in the mRNA instead of Thymine in the DNA sequence.
Representation:
C. WT 5-T AGT CGA AGC TTA GGC ATC T-3 >> 5'3' Frame 1 = SRSLGI
Mutant 5-T AGT TGA AGC TTA GGC ATC T-3 >> 5'3' Frame 1 = S-, where - represents a stop codon (TGA) and therefore it is the end of the protein.

Biochemical changes in the body, that affect the rate of metabolism and elimination of a substance from the body and produce increased amounts to achieve the desired effects, may lead to development of
Answer:
Tolerance
Explanation:
Tolerance is the capacity of an organism to survive changes in certain environmental and biochemical conditions. It has to with changes an organism is able to withstand when is subjected to certain factors which can biotic or abiotic.
For example, in the consumption of alcohol, tolerance can occur when there is a fast elimination of alcohol from the body system. This is usually as a result of the activation of a group of enzymes that is responsible for the metabolism of alcohol in excessive alcohol drinkers. The activation of this enzymes increases the catabolism of alcohol and hence reduces the active time within the body, hence reducing the time by which alcohol intoxicates.

Please describe the regulation of the blood glucose 6 hours after a meal?
Please include all relevant organs, hormones, and actions.
Answer:
Find the description below in the explanation section
Explanation:
The body system regulates the blood sugar level via the hand-in-hand working of insulin and glucagon hormones, both produced by the Pancreas. After a meal, the food undergoes digestion and is broken down into glucose, which is absorbed into the bloodstream. Insulin hormone is released by the pancreas (stimulated by a negative feedback) when the sugar level of the blood increases. This secretion of insulin causes cells to absorb glucose as source of energy, while liver and muscle cells store some of the excess blood glucose as GLYCOGEN.
However, after about 6 hours of taking the meal, the blood sugar (glucose) level must have decreased. This triggers the secretion of Glucagon hormone by the Pancreas. Glucagon hormone, acts in an opposite manner as Insulin hormone, by causing the stored GLYCOGEN in the liver and muscle cells to be converted back to Glucose in order for cells to make use of it.
This continuous process occurs and it is how the body regulates the blood glucose levels.
What would be an appropriate evolutionary explanation of the fact that the ordering of some homeotic genes (e.g., Hox genes) on vertebrate chromosomes parallels the ordering of homeotic genes on fruit fly chromosomes? Group of answer choices
Answer:
The correct answer is "The similar ordering of homeotic genes in animals, both vertebrate and insect, is due to ancient homology".
Explanation:
The missing options of this question are
a. Homeotic genes show that insects and vertebrates are closer relatives than the traditional classification system indicates.
b. The similar ordering of homeotic genes in animals, both vertebrate and insect, is due to ancient homology.
c. The similarity is a coincidence, not documented in other invertebrates and largely a result of random mutations.
d. Homeotic genes of different animal lineages might be ordered in a similar fashion, yet their sequences are completely different.
The correct answer is option b. "The similar ordering of homeotic genes in animals, both vertebrate and insect, is due to ancient homology".
Ancient homology, is a concept proposed by Charles Darwin that explains that species have homologous structures because they share a common ancestor. This explains as well why the ordering of some homeotic genes on vertebrate chromosomes parallels the ordering of homeotic genes on fruit fly chromosomes. Even though vertebrates are not as evolutionary close to fruit fly as other species, they share an ancient common ancestor as well. This same phenomena explains other homologies seeing in species, such as the adaptive mimetic diversity across butterflies.

Explanation:
Scientists have recently estimated that there are approximately 8.7 million species on Earth. They believe that 1-2 million of those species are animals.
Each of two parents has the genotype brown divided by red, which consists of the pair of alleles that determine hair color, and each parent contributes one of those alleles to a child. Assume that if the child has at least one brown allele, that color will dominate and the child's hair color will be brown. a. List the different possible outcomes. Assume that these outcomes are equally likely. b. What is the probability that a child of these parents will have the red divided by red genotype? c. What is the probability that the child will have brown hair color?
Answer:
Explanation:
From the given information:
Each of two parents has the genotype brown divided by red
So ;
The man's genotype is : [tex]\mathbf {\dfrac{Brown}{Red}}[/tex]
The woman's genotype is : [tex]\mathbf {\dfrac{Brown}{Red}}[/tex]
This [tex]\mathbf {\dfrac{Brown}{Red}}[/tex] genotype consist of the pair of alleles that determine hair color
Now; we are given an assumption that:
if the child has at least one brown allele, that color will dominate and the child's hair color will be brown.
i.e Brown allele is dominant to Red allele
(a) List the different possible outcomes.
The cross between :
[tex]\mathbf {\dfrac{Brown}{Red}* \mathbf {\dfrac{Brown}{Red}}}[/tex] will produce the following offsprings which is the different possible outcomes.
[tex]= \mathbf {\dfrac{Brown}{Brown} \ \ : \ \ \mathbf {\dfrac{Brown}{Red}} \ \ : \ \ \mathbf {\dfrac{Red}{Brown}} \ \ : \ \ \mathbf {\dfrac{Red}{Red} }}[/tex]
(b) . What is the probability that a child of these parents will have the red divided by red genotype?
The probability that the child of these parents will have [tex]\mathbf {\dfrac{Red}{Red} }}[/tex] is one out of four
i.e
= 1/4
= 0.25
(c) What is the probability that the child will have brown hair color.
We are being told that; if the child has at least one brown allele, that color will dominate and the child's hair color will be brown.
i.e Brown allele is dominant to Red allele
Thus; from above we will see that three of the offsprings have at least one brown allele;
Thus; the probability that the child will have brown hair color is = 3/4
= 0.75

when the community climax in an ecosystem has only a single type of climax, the development of the climax community is controlled by ___ of that region.
a) the climate
b) the life forms
c) the soil texture
d) the pioneer community
Answer:
A.
Explanation:
because the climax community is composed of species beat adopted to average conditions in that area
When the community climax in an ecosystem has only a single type of climax, the development of the climax community is controlled by the climate of that region. Option A is correct.
The climate of a region is the most important factor that controls the development of a climax community. The climate determines the temperature, precipitation, and other abiotic factors that influence the growth and survival of plants and animals.
In a region with a single type of climax community, the climate is relatively uniform and there is little variation in the abiotic factors. This means that the same species of plants and animals will be able to survive and thrive in the region, regardless of the specific location. The life forms, soil texture, and pioneer community can all influence the development of a climax community, but they are not as important as the climate. Option A is correct.
