Redundant mechanisms

To maintain homeostasis, redundant mechanisms are present in the body so that when one of the systems fails, other complementary or backup systems can help to compensate and ensure the survive of the organism by maintaining homeostasis. Examples of these redundant systems involve blood pressure regulation, temperature regulation, breathing and pH control in the body during exercise.

(Experiment 1: Diffusion through a liquid) Does the rate of diffusion correcspond with the molecular weight of the dye?
saveliy_v [14]
The answer to this question would be: False

The rate of diffusion should not be influenced by molecular weight. Big molecule might not be able to pass the membrane though.
Diffusion happens when there is a difference/gradient in the concentration of the molecules. If the difference is higher, then the diffusion rate will be increased.

Define the following terms. Drag and drop the words into the appropriate blanks to complete the sentences.
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

1. replication

2. gene

3. strand polarity

4. translation

5. complementary base pairing

6. chromosome

7. antiparallel

8. transcription

9. allele

Explanation:

1. Replication is the process by which DNA is duplicated or the process of making another copy of DNA.

2. Gene is the physical unit of heredity i.e a segment of DNA transferred from parents to offsprings. A gene also encodes a useful products such as protein.

3. A DNA strand is a polar molecule, which is attributed to the phosphate group at the 5'-end of DNA and the hydroxyl group at the 3'-end of DNA.

4. Translation is the process whereby the information in a mRNA molecule is used to synthesize a protein.

5. Complementary base pairing is a phenomenon whereby Adenine (A) binds to thymine (T), guanine (G) binds to cytosine (C).

6. A chromosome contains of single long molecule of DNA coiled together around histone proteins. The chromosome is associated with different types of proteins.

7. In the double-stranded DNA molecule, one strand runs from 5' to 3' and the other runs from 3' to 5'. This is called ANTIPARALLEL nature of DNA.

8. Transcription is the process by which a DNA molecule is used to synthesize a mRNA single strand.

9. Allele is the alternative or contrasting form of a gene. Each allele is contributed by each parent
