Answer:
a) False.
b) True.
c) False.
d) True.
e) False.
f) True
g) True.
Explanation:
a) The main characteristic of homologous chromosomes is that they have an equal size. There is a difference in size on both chromosomes.
b) In number one, two chromosomes are homologous. In number two also two chromosomes are homologous. On the other hand, the chromosomes at number one and two are different. Each chromosome has two sister chromatids.
c) A DNA molecule has a double helix, that is, two chains. When a DNA chain is broken and a chromatide has a DNA chain, then two chromatids make up a chromosome and a DNA chain, in this way there are eight dsDNA molecules
d) If each chromosome contains a centromere, therefore, there are four centromeres on all four chromosomes.
e) If a chromosome contains four telomeres, therefore there will be sixteen telomeres.
f) The function of cohesin is to regulate the separation of chromatids in the cell division process. When DNA replication is complete, the DNA compacts and condenses to form mitotic chromosomes.
g) The CENPA protein is encoded by the CENPA gene.
Symptoms of severe anxiety evident in this case include; confusion, sweating, withdrawal, rapid speech, and a perceptual field that is reduced greatly and distorted. The perceptual field is heightened in mild anxiety while in moderate anxiety, the ability to think clearly is hampered but learning and problem solving can still take place. Additionally in panic, communication is unintelligible or there is an inability to speak.
<u>Answer:</u>
The series dilution method is the step wise dilution technique where the dilution factors remain constant in each step.
The advantages of using the series of dilution method over simple dilution are stated below:
<em>a) Aids in reduction of a dense culture of cells to a more usable concentration.</em>
<em>b) In every step of dilution the specific amount of bacteria is removed. </em>
<em>c) Helps in the estimation of concentration of an unknown sample.</em>
<em>This sums up the advantage of using the series dilution technique.</em>
Answer:
Red tide occurs in patches of water where certain species of dinoflagellates flourish.
Explanation:
Red tides refer to the noticeable microalgae proliferation that can be recognized for being a big spot in the sea of a characteristic coloration. This phenomenon is caused by two microalgae groups: diatoms and dinoflagellates, both part of phytoplankton.
Red tides occur when certain environmental factors -such as temperature, light, nutrients availability, ph, etcetera- favor the overproduction of these organisms. These species produce toxins that turn to be dangerous for other animal species that feed on them.
Because these microorganisms produce pigments, their accumulation on the sea surface can be noticed as reddish, brown, or greenish color spots of variable extension.
Answer:
The correct answer would be B) enclosed in a protein capsule
Almost all living cells contain DNA as their genetic material. DNA control and coordinates the function of the cell. The two cells also must contain the DNA.
Cellular respiration refers to the set of biochemical reactions by which the cell generates ATP or energy. All the living cells produce energy through cellular respiration, however, they may utilize the aerobic or anaerobic form of respiration.
A ribosome is found in all the living cells including animal cells, plants, bacteria et cetera. They form the site for protein synthesis in all the cells.
The protein capsule is not a universal feature of all living cells. Thus, it may be present in one cell type and absent in another cell type.
