Answer:
Through a circumstance known as "secondary transfer DNA", or "Touch DNA".
Explanation:
Most times when a crime is committed, DNA samples are obtained from surfaces in the scene where the crime was committed. There is a very huge possibility of picking up the DNA of someone who was never at the scene of the crime and this is a result of a condition known as Touch DNA.
Because we touch several objects which can be moved to different locations and touch people who are also always mobile, our DNA cells can find their ways to a crime scene where we had never physically been to. This can lead to false verdicts of guilt.
Answer:
Autonomic nervous system
Explanation:
Autonomic nervous system controls body functions that do not require thought.
Answer:
Qualitative observations are those that cannot really be counted or measured by empirical figures, but are rather described by the features they have such as their color or taste.
Quantitative observations can be measured and counted by empirical figures i.e. numbers such as age and temperature. Number operations such as addition can be performed on them as well.
Qualitative observations.
- The shirt is soft and red.
- The river flows more quickly in the spring than in the summer.
Quantitative observations.
- There are eight elephants over the age of six at the zoo.
- It is 72 degrees Fahrenheit outside.
Answer:
The correct answer is: C. Active Transport.
Explanation:
Because Na+ and K+ are ions, which makes them <em>charged molecules</em>, they can only diffuse through the cell membrane when using specialized protein channels. This is called <u>facilitated diffusion</u> and is a form of passive transport because sodium and potassium move <em>following their gradients</em>, which are made of the difference in concentration between the inside of the cell and the outside of the cell. For example, potassium is highly concentrated inside the cell and poorly concentrated outside the cell, so potassium diffuses from the inside to the outside to even the concentrations.
But the question asks in which process Na+ and K+ move in and out of the cell SIMULTANEOUSLY, so the answer is actually <u>active transport</u>. Active transport is the opposite of passive transport. While passive transport occurs naturally and doesn't need ATP (energy) to happen, active transport needs ATP because it moves molecules AGAINST their gradient. One of the most famous and important structures involved in active transport is the Na+/K+ pump, which consists of a <em>specialized protein using energy to enter 2 potassium ions and take out 3 sodium ions at the same time</em>. This Na+/K+ is fundamental to maintain the gradients, which are important for the correct functioning of many cells.
