Answer:

In some of the species, like lizards, crocodiles, and turtles, the determination of gender is influenced by temperature. In case of turtles, the eggs turn into male when the temperature is less, and turn into females when the temperature is higher. Therefore, in order to hypothesize that the determination of gender in turtles is influenced by temperature, the scientist should expose the distinct groups of turtles into distinct sets of temperatures in a lab.

They can test the temperature of the ground where the turtle eggs lays and develops during the stage before breaking out of its shell.

Good luck! :)

Using the help of the semi conservative replication of DNA, What is the role of a single strand of DNA ?

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

In the semi-conservative method of DNA replication, each of the strands of the double helix acts as a template for replication.

Explanation:

Semi-conservative DNA Replication:

Semi-conservative DNA replication produces two daughter helices from the original parent helix. One strand of the daughter helix is form the original template while the other is newly synthesized.
This means that one strand will have the base sequence identical to the parent, while the other will be complementary to the template.
This model was experimentally confirmed by an experiment conducted in 1958 by Meselson and Stahl. They used radioactive isotope of nitrogen i.e. N-14 or N-15. DNA molecules made with N-15 were allowed to replicate in the presence of N-14.
After first replication, DNA molecules contained both N-15 and N-14 isotopes, disproving the conservative model that stated that the new helices are completely identical to the template.
The second replication yielded only N-14 which disproved the dispersive model that the new helices are a combination of both the template and new strands.

Glucagon, a peptide hormone, is upregulated when blood sugar levels are low. Which molecules in or on the plasma membrane would

Arlecino [84]

Answer: Receptor protein.

Explanation:

The receptor protein on the cell surface would enable a cell to respond to glucagon. The glucagon binds to the GPCR on the liver and muscle cells and is known as glucagon receptor.

This receptor then stimulates cells to release glucose into the blood stream. Another hormones involved during this process is glucagon like peptide 1.

It works by binding to another GPCR which is GLP-1 receptor found on the pancreatic cells.
