By measuring the height of a tortoise a scientist is gathering?

Biology
1 answer:
Viktor [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

By measuring the height of a tortoise a scientist is gathering QUANTITATIVE DATA.

Explanation:

There are two basic types of data that can be gathered during scientific investigation, these are qualitative data and quantitative data. Qualitative data are those data that are descriptive in nature, this type of data can not be represented with numbers. One good example of qualitative data is  the colour of a substance. For instance: A WHITE rat.

Quantitative data on the other hand are those information that can be recorded in number form. For instance, the height of the tortoise in this question can be measured and the value obtained can be recorded in number form.

iragen [17]

Answer:

The correct answer would be mitosis and binary fission.

The human embryo grows through the process of mitotic divisions through a parent cell divides into two equal sized daughter cells each of which contains identical genetic material.

Similarly, single-celled organisms reproduce asexually through the process of binary fission during a parent cell divides into two equal sized daughter cells each of which contains identical genetic material. Each daughter cell grows and matures to become an independent adult.

andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Transcription and RNA processing (splicing)

Explanation:

Although Howard is almost right, the DNA sequence does not precisely relate to the protein sequence. First of all, the DNA is transcribed to an primary mRNA molecule. Bur before the mRNA is ready to be translated into an amino acid sequence, it must be processed into a mature mRNA.

This includes adding a 3' poly A tail, and a 5' cap, and importantly for this question, splicing.

Splicing is the removal of non protein coding intermediate sequences called introns from the protein coding regions (exons) of a primary mRNA. This means that lots of the DNA sequence is not dictated by the final protein, as many of the intervening sequences have been removed by splicing.

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The correct answer is "strengths: inexpensive, easy to culture, short life cycle, large number of offspring; weaknesses: invertebrate model, some diseases such as immunological cannot be modelled, anatomical features are very different from humans"

Explanation:

The fruit fly <em>Drosophila melanogaster</em> is one of the most used animal model for genetic and biomedical studies. There are many advantages of using Drosophila as model, including that it is very inexpensive to handle, it is easy to culture, it has a short life cycle allowing to observe the changes in phenotype very quickly and its large number of offspring allows to include several repetitions per trait in a study. However, there are some weaknesses of using Drosophila to study human biology. First, obviously the fruit fly is very different from humans, it is an invertebrate and its anatomical features are very different, which makes impossible to model some disorders such as immunological diseases.
