Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Phylogenetic relationships

1. includes all descendants from a single common ancestor >>> monophyletic group

2. does not share any common ancestry but represents convergent evolution >>> polyphyletic group

3. includes some but not all descendants from a single common ancestor >>> paraphyletic group

Explanation:

A monophyletic taxon is a collection of organisms that have the same most recent common ancestor, thereby including an ancestor and all its descendants. Examples of monophyletic groups are angiosperms, mammals, insects, etc. A paraphyletic group is composed of some (but not all) the descendants of the most recent common ancestor. An example of a paraphyletic group includes fish and lizards. Finally, a polyphyletic taxon is composed of a group of organisms that do not contain the common ancestor of all the members of the group. An example of a polyphyletic group is composed of birds and mammals, (which constitutes a group of warm-blooded animals).

Explanation:

Characteristics that defines a biological organisms are passed down from parent to offspring during sexual reproduction. These characteristic can change over time due to mutation of genes. The new characteristics can either become more dominant; if it enhances the organisms chances of survival, or can die away or even lead to the complete wipe out of the species, if it does not increase the odds of survival of the organism. The mechanism of the development, or eradication of these characteristics is through natural selection, and sexual selection.

Answers

Answer:

A. decreases as you move away from the equator in both terrestrial and marine ecosystems.

Explanation:

Most of the population of animals in both terrestrial and marine ecosystems lives near the equator because temperature is favorable and there is more food available in the form of producer (plants). When we go away from the equator towards poles, the temperature decreases and also food is unavailable in large quantity so the population of organisms decreases in both terrestrial and marine ecosystems.

Soil PH measure of the acid content of the soil

Answers

Answer:

Soil pH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of the soil. A pH value is actually a measure of hydrogen ion concentration. Because hydrogen ion concentration varies over a wide range, a logarithmic scale (pH) is used: for a pH decrease of 1, the acidity increases by a factor of 10.

What chemical force must be overcome in order to separate the two DNA strands during replication?

Answers

Answer:

Hydrogen bonds

Explanation:

DNA strands are held together by pair of complementary base pairs with Purines; Adenine and Guanine pairing with Pyrimidine: cytosine and Thymine;therefore Adenine pairs with Thymine,and Cytosine with Guanine.Theses bases are held together by the hydrogen bonds.

Two hydrogen bonds are in A-T, and three between C-G.

The process of formation of  another DNA molecules from the parent template is called replication. Under this process the  parent  double DNA strands unwinds,and fresh nucleotide line on the parent strands serving as the template.

Thus new double DNA stands are formed with one back bone of alternate sugar  and phosphate containing the new DNA strands,while the other strands conserving the parents strands contains the old back bone of sugars alternated with phosphate.This is semi conservative replication because, one of the double stands is new and the other is from the original parent strand.

Other form of replication is called conservative replication in which an entirely new double strands is formed,different from the parent DNA.

It begins with  the the unwinding of the DNA strands by the activity of enzyme Helicase which breaks down the hydrogen bonds between bases.This is followed by  attachment of primer to the old strands, and the catalysis by Enzyme DNA polymerase which ensure that new nucleotide are attach in 3'-5' direction to form a new strands.

See the answer below

Explanation:

It may seem that the options have been omitted in this question. However, in order to evaluate the claim that a mean from a particular group is statistically higher or lower to a mean from another group, there would be a need to compare the two means.  

Mean comparison or testing for a significant difference between means can be carried out using the Student's t-test or one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA).

When the means being compared are just for 2 groups as indicated in the illustration, Student's t-test and one-way ANOVA can be used. However, once there are more than 2 group means being compared, one-way ANOVA will only be applicable.

A cardiac muscle cell is: A. a voluntary muscle just like skeletal muscle. B. contracts spontaneously. C. is joined to other cardiac muscle cells by structures called intercalated discs. D. has numerous nuclei. E. Two of the statements above are correct

Answers

Answer:

E. Two of the statements above are correct i.e. options B and C

Explanation:

Cardiac muscles, also known as myocardium, are one of the three types of muscles found in the heart (the other two being skeletal and smooth muscles). Cardiac muscle cells are striated and branched in structure, with only one nucleus located centrally i.e. mono-nucleated.

Unlike the skeletal muscles, cardiac muscles are involuntary muscles controlled by certain parts of the brain. The cells that make up the cardiac muscles are connected to one another by structures called intercalated discs. Also, cardiac muscle cells contract spontaneously i.e. internally. Hence, options B and C are correct

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is (D).

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion gives the relationship between the force and acceleration of an object. It can be given by :

F = ma

It means that the force is directly proportional to both mass and acceleration. If the acceleration increase, force will increas. It would mean that "The direction of the force and the direction of acceleration must be the same as each other".

Exploring sounds around us, measurement and recording of this- how is it done?

Answers

Answer:

In order to measure and record sound accurately and scientifically,  a sound device called Decibel Meter or a Sound Pressure Level (SPL) Meter is often required.

Other names for the SPL Meter are:

Noise Meter Noise Dosimeter and Sound Level Meter.

How it works/How it is done

Sounds are collected by the Noise Meter and recorded in units called Decibels (dB). For instance, you have a recording of 0 decibels when it's extremely quiet or 30 decibels if it's a typical quiet rural area.

A motorcycle or a boom box will emit anywhere between 95 to 102 decibels.

The input mechanism for an SPL Meter is a microphone. The microphone captures the sounds, feeds it into the SPL Meter which computes how many decibels the sound it. The results are then displayed on its screen.

The right atrioventricular valve (tricuspid) regulates the opening between the _________ and the _________.

Answers

Answer:

The right atrioventricular valve (tricuspid) regulates the opening between the right atrium and the right ventricle.

Explanation:

Valves are gates that allow the connection between atria and ventricles. The two valves located on the right side (tricuspid and pulmonary) direct the incoming blood from the body to the lung, where it is oxygenated; from there it returns to the left atrium, to later pass through the mitral and aortic valves. The left atrium connects to the left ventricle through the mitral valve and the right atrium connects to the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve.

Bacterial species have evolved over millions of years to fill almost every available environmental niche on this planet. Despite this impressive radiation, bacteria are still limited by the availability of carbon and nitrogen sources for their metabolisms. Bacteria may express many different proteins required for uptake and utilization of these compounds for use in their metabolisms. Organic compounds containing carbon and nitrogen are required for both anabolic and catabolic reactions that comprise a cell’s metabolism. Not all bacterial species have the same abilities, so you can use this characteristic to differentiate bacterial species by determining which carbon- and nitrogen-containing media support the growth of the bacteria. Determine whether the following enzymatic reactions are anabolic or catabolic and place them within the correct bin.
1. Glucose is broken down into two pyruvates.
2. ammonia is added to glutamate to form glutamine.
3. four amino acids are linked together to form tetrapeptide.
4. a uracil base is added to a mRNA strand by RNA polymerase.
5. starches are digested into individual glucose molecules.
6. ribose and inorganic phosphate are bonded to form a nucleotide base.

Answers

Answer:

1. Glucose breaks down into two pyruvates. CATABOLIC

2. Ammonia is added to glutamate to form glutamine. Anabolic

3. Four amino acids join to form tetrapeptides. Anabolic

4. A uracil base is added to an mRNA strand by RNA polymerase. Anabolic

5. Starches are digested into individual glucose molecules. CATABOLIC

6. Ribose and inorganic phosphate join together to form a nucleotide base. Anabolic

Explanation:

Chemical reactions are classified as anabolic and catabolic depending on whether they form or disintegrate structures, yielding energy to the medium or taking energy from the medium.

Anabolic reactions are those that take energy from the environment and therefore synthesize very complex molecules, of various bonds such as glycogen, starch, among other polysaccharides.

On the other hand, catabolism leads to the destruction of the unions of a chemical product, that is why they have greater entropy and is thus the greatest disorder.

Catabolism releases energy to the environment, it releases it.

For an anabolic reaction to happen, there must be a catabolic one, since it takes the energy released by catabolism, and for a catabolism to happen, an anabolism must first have arisen, that is, the formation of a molecule or particle that is dissociates.
