What change could a student measure to collect data about the rate of photosynthesis in a certain type of algae when it

Biology
1 answer:
Sonbull [250]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The student can measure the number of gas bubbles given off by the algae.

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a process in which plants make its food (glucose) by absorbing the sunlight, carbon dioxide from air and water from the soil, and release oxygen into the atmosphere. A green pigment in plants called chlorophyll absorbs light and perform photosynthesis.

The rate of photosynthesis increases as a result of increase in the light intensity. Certain types of algae contains different pigments like carotenoids, phycobiliproteins etc in addition to chlorophyll for absorbing light of different wavelength or colors. By using all these pigments, more light energy is converted into chemical energy in the algae by photosynthesis. Thus as the rate of photosynthesis increases, more oxygen bubbles are produced by the algae.

What happens in animal cells when mineral concentration is high and low in solution
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Diffusion occurs when there is movement of minerals from an area of higher to lower concentration, till equilibrium is obtained.

Whereas Osmosis is the movement of solvents rather then the solute, from a solution of lower to a solution of higher concentration with the help of semipermeable membrane.

Explanation:

Diffusion is the movement of substances from area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration of minerals, which mainly results in animal cells. Whether solute or solvent, diffusion occurs for both. Diffusion does not requires any semi permeable membrane. Diffusion occur in all state of matter, that solid, liquid and gas, whereas osmosis occurs only in liquid state. Osmosis requires semipermeable membrane and rate of which is related to concentration of solute dissolution in solvent medium. Only movement of solvent medium takes place. Classical example of osmosis is exhibited by cell membranes of animal cells. On the other hand diffusion is the spreading of perfume or fragrances to the external air.

Ling made a study chart for science class.
aliina [53]

Alyssa's additional observation would be cell Y having a larger vacuole than cell X. The third option is the correct one.

<h3>Plant cell vs animal cell</h3>

From the observations, both cells are eukaryotic. This is because:

  • cell X has lysosomes which are only found in eukaryotic cells
  • cell Y has a nucleus which also peculiar to eukaryotic cells only

Lysosome houses digestive enzymes and is found mostly in animal cells. Only a few plant cells have lysosomes.

Thus, the lack of a lysosome means that cell Y is a plant cell while the presence means that cell X is an animal cell.

Generally, plant cells have larger vacuoles than animal cells.

A heterozygous, three-horned alien from Mercury has met and fallen in love with a four-horned alien from Jupiter. What would hap
Gnesinka [82]
Because the three-horned alien is heterozygous, we know that three must be dominant to four, because the gene for the three horns is "hiding" the gene for four horns. Therefore, the three-horned alien has the genotype Tt (T for three horns, and t for four horns). The four horned alien must be tt, because that is the only way that a recessive trait may be seen.  If you solve the punnet square on a cross between Tt and tt, you end up with half three (heterozygous) and half four (homozygous recessive) it is a bit easier to explain with something a little "closer to home" if you want me to explain it again, just say so, I don't mind!

Your home is located in a deep river valley less than a mile from where the river flows into the Gulf of Mexico. A hurricane is
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: Go to a shelter farther inland on higher ground.

Explanation:

A hurricane is a tropical cyclone in which the air rotates in low pressure. It is an organized thunderstorm which has no fronts (a boundary that separates the two air masses which are of typically of different densities). The speed of the wind in this cyclone is 74 mph.

Go to a shelter farther inland on higher ground. is the correct approach. This is because of the fact that hurricane can cause the flow of water from the river at high tide. Thus it will be suitable that a person attains a shelter to higher grounds to keep itself save.
