Answer:

Ethics refers to some set of rule and regulations or principles, that ensure the right conduct in a definite professional or academic environment.

When we talk about lab ethics, there are a set of principles which a scientist need to follow to demonstrate excellent lab ethics.While working in laboratory a scientist must make sure that ethical standards are a priority of them. Here we will discuss few of those:

A scientist should never manipulate the data and results just to make them in accordance with the previously reported studies.
Scientist should properly document every protocol and process and take special care that no changes are made in experiment due to environmental influences that can affect the reliability of results.
Scientist should always report the results and processes which he performed and never report work without actually doing it.
Scientist should never omit some part of the experiment or compromise the data or results of experiment.
Scientist should never manipulate the calculations.
Every process or step that is part of a scientist's experimentation should be conducted before the finalization of the results and not perform procedure after results are made.
Scientist should replicate his experimentation at least three times to make sure that what he is reporting is based on facts and not just error in experimentation.
Scientist should never report self made information just to validate or proof his work.

Hope it help!

ANSWER:

The answer is C., by being honest in recording the results of their own experiments.

EXPLANATION:

It is not A. Doing an experiment until you get your desired result, can lead to a biased outcome.

Y_Kistochka [10]

Full Moon is the answer, letter B.

When the full illuminated face of the Moon visible on Earth, it is on the Full Moon phase.

>New moon - the illuminated side of the Moon is away from the Earth. only the shadowed side can be seen.

>Waning gibbous - the Moon is less than fully illuminated, but, is more than half.

>Waxing crescent - first sliver of the Moon that we can see.

Rusting is a chemical reaction between iron and oxygen. Over time, the mass of a rusting nail

marshall27 [118]

Answer: Yes this chemical reaction obeys the laws of physics. Its very simple, let me explain.

Explanation:

When Iron(Fe) oxidizes it gains three oxygen atoms so it reacts to form Fe2O3 so it becomes bigger or explands. Its also sometimes called "oxide jacking".

What proportion of DNA molecules will contain any radioactivity after two rounds of replication?

Vladimir [108]

Answer: After two rounds of replication half of DNA molecules will contain one strand with radioactive nitrogen. And the other half will contain two strands with radioactive nitrogen.

Explanation:

In semi-conservative replication, two DNA molecules are created, each consisting of one strand of the original DNA and one new complementary strand. In other words, the DNA is formed from one old strand and one new strand. And the existing strands serve as a complementary mould to the new ones.

Meselson-Stahl's experiment involves growing the bacterium Escherichia coli in a medium containing radioactive nitrogen. Watson and Crick had predicted that DNA replication was semi-conservative, if so the DNA extracted from the bacteria would be somewhere in between the DNA extracted from the "normal" nitrogen medium and the radioactive nitrogen medium.

DNA replication, which occurs only once in each cell generation, requires many "building blocks", enzymes, and a great deal of energy in the form of ATP. The nucleotides, which are the building blocks of DNA, have to be assembled and available in the nucleus along with the energy to bind them together. Each nucleotide consists of three parts: a nitrogen-containing ring structure called a nitrogen base, a five-carbon sugar, and at least one phosphate group.

Through the action of DNA polymerase during replication, new nucleotides bind to the corresponding nucleotide of the original chain (A to T, C to G).

Since the DNA strands are anti-parallel, and replication proceeds only in the 5' to 3' direction on both strands, one strand will form a continuous copy, while the other will form a series of short fragments known as Okazaki fragments. The chain that is synthesized continuously is known as the forward chain and the chain that is synthesized in fragments is known as the backward chain.

Then, since replication is semi-conservative, the new strand will have nucleotides with "normal" nitrogen while the new strand created from that same DNA molecule will incorporate nucleotides with radioactive nitrogen. So, after two rounds of replication half of DNA molecules will contain one strand with radioactive nitrogen. And the other half will contain two strands with radioactive nitrogen.
