The plasma membrane found in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is composed of a/an _______, which is semipermeable and controls the flow of molecules into and out of the cell.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Phospholipid layer

Explanation:

The plasma or cell membrane is the outer covering of prokaryotic (bacteria) and eukaryotic (plants and animal) cells that provides support to the cytoplasm. The plasma membrane is made up of components like phospholipid layer, proteins, etc. However, the PHOSPHOLIPID LAYER component of the plasma membrane confers its SEMI-PERMEABILITY upon it.

The phospholipid layer consists of a hydrophilic i.e. water-loving region (phosphate head) and hydrophobic i.e. water-fearing region (fatty acid tails) that allows it to selectively control the flow of molecules into and out of the cell.

B.CFCs
C. oil spill
D.runoff

Quick this is a timed exam

Answers

Answer:

B) CFCs

Explanation:

chlorine in the CFC is very harmful to the ozone layer

Air pollution is the contamination of the air and its surroundings due to air pollutants. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are most likely a source of air pollution. Thus, option B is correct.

What are Chlorofluorocarbons?

Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are nontoxic chemicals that contain chlorine, fluorine, and carbon. They are largely used in the manufacturing of refrigerants, foams, sprays, etc.

Chlorofluorocarbons destroy the protective ozone layer of the earth and affect its ability to shield the harmful UV rays from the sun. Due to their dangerous effect on the ozone, they are banned.  

They are emitted and get deposited in the earth's atmosphere causing the greenhouse effect that causes the melting of the ice and increases in the sea level to rise in temperature.

Therefore, chlorofluorocarbons are the source of air pollution.

combustion of manure piles in hot weather
evaporation from contaminated groundwater

Answers

Answer:

combustion of manure piles in hot weather

Explanation:

A manure piles are heap of animal waste or excreta mainly the waste from horse manure and the bedding which is stored to decompose and reduce in bulk.

Particulate matter is a mixture of small particles as well as liquid droplets that causes pollution and is harmful to health.

Burning of manure piles can cause to fly the dust and the dirt in the animal manure in the air and it leads to particulate matter suspended in the air.

Directions: Select the correct term or terms from the table. Different organisms have different traits, or characteristics. Some of an organism's traits are inherited from the organism's parents, while other traits are more strongly influenced by the organism's environment. Among most animals, which of the following traits are usually directly determined by genes inherited from the organism's parents? sex body weight knowledge blood type​

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - sex and blood type.

Explanation:

Different organisms have different traits some are passed from the parents and other traits are developed by environmental influences. The traits that are passed from parents to the offspring are determined by the genes they inherited from the parents. In humans, sex is determined by the genes that present on the chromosomes and make the chromosome X chromosome or Y chromosome. The presence of the Y chromosome determines maleness.

Similarly, the blood group is determined by the genes, there are three alleles of the ABO gene present on chromosome 9; A. B. and O each allele code for a different antigen which helps them categorizing in blood groups.

1.TTPP
2.ttpp
3.ttPP
4.ttPp
5.TtPp

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is - 4. ttPp

Explanation:

Given - tall is dominant over short pea plant

let assume T is dominant and t is short which is recessive

Similarly, P for dominant purple flower and p for white flower

The offspring has a short plant which means it has both t allele or recessive allele for the height of a plant by the cross of a true-breeding purple and true-breeding white:

    P   P

p   Pp Pp

p   Pp Pp

This means the offspring would have a heterozygous case for the genotype of the flower of the pea plant

Thus, the correct answer is ttPp

X----------------Y-------------------------Z
20 m.u. 30 m.u.
You cross an individual with genotype XXYYZZ to an individual with genotype xxyyzz, and F1 progeny are collected. Assume interference between regions (X-Y and Y-Z) is 100%. When an F1 individual produces gametes, what proportion of its gametes would have xyz genotype?
a. 10%
b. 20%
c. 25%
d. 30%
e. 40%
f. 50%
g. 0%
h. None of these above

Answers

In F1 we will get 100% XxYyZz

each of these organism has two chromosomes that look like this

X..........20..........Y...............30...............Z

x..........20..........y...............30...............z

Those two chromosomes are homologous

we want a gamete that contains the second chromosome where crossing-over didn't occur. The distance between the genes of the chromosomes in map units is equal to the frequency of recombination in percentage. Therefore there is a 20% that x and y will recombine and a 30% chance that y and z will recombine. We want a chromosome that is not recombined.

The possible gametes are

XYZ XYz XyZ Xyz xYZ xYz xyZ xyz if the genes were on different chromosomes xyz would be 1/8 or 12,5%

Since there is a 20% that the genes x and y will recombine that means there is a 80% chance that they won't and since there is a 30% chance that the genes y and z will recombine that means there is a 70% chance that they won't.

80%*70%=56% chances that the genes won't recombine. But, there are two non-recombinant gametes:XYZ and xyz therefore the chances for xyz is 56/2=28%

In mouse, genes X, Y and Z are on chromosome 2. The map of genes X, Y and Z is: X----------------Y-------------------------Z, When an F1 individual produces gametes, we will get 100% gametes would have xyz genotype that is XxYyZz, it can be represented as

X..........20..........Y...............30...............Z

What is chromosome ?

A chromosome can be observed as a  thread-like structure present in the nucleus of cells such as plant, animal and human cells, composed of DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) molecule and histone proteins.

The three major components, DNA, proteins and RNA,  the content of the DNA ranges from 30 to 40 % whereas proteins from 50 to 65%, and small amount of RNA ranges from 1 to 10%.

Two types of protein present such as histone and non-histones proteins, histone content is more (90% of total protein), whereas non-histone is content is less (around 10% of total protein).

The histone protein is basic, the DNA is acidic which can be neutralized; DNA is present in two forms such as Euchromatin and Heterochromatin.

20% that x and y will recombine and a 30% chance that y and z will recombine. We want a chromosome that is not recombined.

The possible gametes are XYZ XYz XyZ Xyz xYZ xYz xyZ xyz if the genes were on different chromosomes xyz would be 1/8 or 12,5%

Explanation:

Animal welfare implies how a creature is adapting to the conditions in which it lives. An animal is in a decent condition of welfare on the off chance that it is solid, agreeable, very much fed, protected, ready to communicate intrinsic conduct, and on the off chance that it isn't experiencing disagreeable states, for example, torment, dread, and pain. Great animal welfare requires infection avoidance and veterinary treatment, proper asylum, the board and sustenance, sympathetic taking care of and empathetic butcher or murdering

In the past 250 years how many volcanoes have erupted?

Answers

Answer:

Graph showing known historically active volcanoes, number of volcanoes reported to be active each year, and population. The line labeled "Known Historically Active Volcanoes" (right scale) is the cumulative number of volcanoes with an historically recorded eruption by that year. "Volcanoes Active Per Year" since 1400 CE (black line) and 10-year running mean of same data (thick red line) is also based on reported eruptions (those with uncertainty dates greater than 1 year are not included, nor are uncertain eruptions). "Population" (right scale) is the world's estimated human population; data from McEvedy and Jones (1978) and (since 1750) Population Reference Bureau, Washington, D.C. See text for further explanation.

A dramatic increase in both the number of historically active volcanoes and recorded eruptions took place about 1500 CE. These resulted in part from the great Spanish/Portuguese marine explorations – the Age of Discovery – around the end of the 15th century, when explorers opened Latin America and much of the western Pacific to European record-keeping. Perhaps equally important was the development and widespread distribution of the printing press in the late 15th century, markedly increasing the likelihood that new volcanological records would survive. Through the 17th and into the early 18th century the recognition of additional active volcanoes generally corresponded with steadily increasing eruption reports. By the 18th century global trade was flourishing, the Industrial Revolution was under way, and the heightened reporting of eruptions noticeably accelerated the discovery of new volcanoes. The list has continued to grow, with several important volcanic regions such as New Zealand, Alaska, and Hawaii being unrepresented until the last 250 years.

Pigmented eyes (P) are dominant to non-pigmented (p), and dimpled chins (D) are dominant to Non-dimpled chins (d). A pigment-eyed, dimple-chinned man marries a blue-eyed woman without a dimpled chin. Their firstborn child is blue-eyed and has a dimpled chin. What are the possible genotypes of the father

Answers

Answer:

PpDD and PpDd

Explanation:

Pigmented eyes (P) are dominant to non-pigmented (p), and dimpled chins (D) are dominant to Non-dimpled chins (d).

The possible genotypes of a pigment-eyed, dimple-chinned person would be  PPDD, PpDd, PPDd, PpDD while a blue-eyed person without a dimpled chin would have the genotype ppdd.

The genotype of a blue-eyed, dimpled chin child would be either of ppDd or ppDD, but in this case, the mother is ppdd and as such, the child cannot have two copies of D allele. Hence, the genotype of the child can only be ppDd.

In order for the child to have blue eyes (pp), it means that the father has to have the non-pigmented allele (p). This also means that the father is heterozygous for eye pigmentation (Pp).

Hence, the genotype of the father is now limited to PpDD and PpDd.
