Answer:A) The ocean is hypertonic to the erythrocytes.
Explanation:cells shrink when placed in an hypertonic solution.
This shrinkage occurs does to the movement of water out of the cell and through the cell membrane.this phenomenon is called plasmolysis.
The movement of water out of this cell occurs through osmosis.osmosis is the movement of water from a region of high concentration of solute to a region of low concentration of solute, through a semi-permeable membrane.
In this case,sea water has a higher concentration of solute (hypertonic) and the blood cells has a lower concentration(hypotonic) .the cell membrane serves as the semi-permeable membrane and and a result water moves out of the cell
Answer:
Option A, Forms a helix and no branch points
Explanation:
As we know that amylose is a straight chain molecule, therefore it forms helix and consists of branching. This is the reason why amylose has no branch points.
However, amylopectin is a branched chain molecule polymer. The monomer unit in both amylose and amylopectin is glucose - D connected at 1, 4 carbon . The number of glucose molecules are higher in amylopectin than the amylose.
Hence out of all given options, option A is correct
Answer:
The correct answer is - 1133.
Explanation:
According to H-W equilibrium;
p2 +2pq + q2 = 1 ........... eq.1 and
(p+q)2 = 1 ..............eq.2
Here q = frequency of the recessive allele,
and p = frequency of the dominant allele in the population
The genotype of p2 + 2pq shows the dominant(taster) phenotype.
The genotype of q2 shows the recessive(non-taster) phenotype.
q^2 = (2400 - 1482)/2400
= 0.3825
= 0.618
using eq. 2 we get p= 1-q
=0.382
2pq = No. of heterozygotes/2400
No. of heterozygotes = 1133.1648
