Answer:
The correct answers are A. "crenation", B. "hemolysis", C. "hemolysis", D. "crenation" and E. "neither will occur".
Explanation:
0.9% (m/v) NaCl or 5.0% (m/v) glucose are isotonic solutions at which the cells will not suffer any harmful consequence. A solution with a higher concentration than the isotonic conditions would result in the cells crenation, while a solution with a lower concentration would result in the cells hemolysis. Therefore the consequences of putting the red cells to the solutions stated in the question are as following:
A: 3.21% (m/v) NaCl Solution = crenation (higher than 0.9% (m/v) NaCl)
B: 1.65% (m/v) glucose Solution = hemolysis (lower than 5.0% (m/v) glucose)
C: distilled H2O Solution = hemolysis (lower than 0.9% (m/v) NaCl or 5.0% (m/v) glucose)
D: 6.97% (m/v) glucose Solution = crenation (higher than 5.0% (m/v) glucose)
E: 5.0% (m/v) glucose and 0.9%(m/v) NaCl = neither will occur (equal to 5.0% (m/v) glucose and 0.9% (m/v) NaCl)
The correct answer is A.
Toxins and various pollutants increase in concentration through the food chain in a process called biomagnification. This means that the organisms on the top of the food chain, like the herring gull, have many times greater concentration of toxins than the lower food chain level organisms because they prey on lower food chain level organisms. If a herring gull ears 100 herrings, it will have a 100x times greater concentration of toxins in its body than a herring.
Answer:
Genotype gray bunnies: GG
Genotype white bunnies: WW
Genotype gray and white bunnies: GW
Explanation:
In diploid species (2n), organisms receive one gene copy (allele) from each parent. Codominance is a relationship that occurs when both alleles of the same gene show dominance. In consequence, the expression of both alleles in heterozygous individuals results in a new phenotype. In this example, the expression of G and W alleles results in a gray and white phenotype. Examples of codominance include individuals with type AB blood group in humans or the roan coat color in horses.
