No,not all organs are weighed on a triple beam balance.

Explanation:

Usually smaller sized organs like adrenals, thyroid are commonly used to be weighed on triple beam balance, whereas larger organs like lungs, liver and heart can only be weighed on grocer's scale.
Only weight of the smaller body organs can be measured very precisely with the help of triple beam balance, where as if we measure the weight of the larger organs using the same triple beam balance,then the resultant value thus obtained will not be accurate enough.
Hence organs are weighed on a triple beam balance.

Answer:

The correct option is D) need to be aware that if any of his garlic plants became diseased, it could very likely infect the entire crop

Explanation:

If cloves from a bulb are taken and grown, then the plants formed will be identical to each other. As a result, there will be no genetic varieties in the garlic plants being produced. Hence, when a diseases eradicates, it will affect the entire plants of the garden as they would be genetically identically, Variations would have allowed some of the plants to be resistant for the disease and hence some of the plant species could be saved by genetic variations.

hershey and chase confirmed that dna, not protein, was the genetic material. how do the results of their two experiments support

Gwar [14]

Hi,

Harshey and Chase did a great experimentation which was basically a two step experiment to prove that DNA and not proteins are the actual carriers of genetic information from parents to offspring.

In the first part of their experiment, they used bacteriophages (virus that eat bacteria). They used radioactively labeled sulphur(35S) medium to grow bacteriophages and observed that all the bacteriophages had proteins with radioactive sulphur(35S).

In the next step they allowed these phages to infect bacteria and to their surprise, they found that the bacteria did not had radioactively labeled sulphur in them because the coat of bacteriophage stays outside the body of bacteria when it attacks it. This proved that DNA not proteins were the hereditary material.

To make their results more reliable, they did a second experimentation in which, they marked the DNA of the phage with radioactive phosphorus 32P. After labeling DNA, they repeated the same experiment and this time, they found radioactive phosphorus inside the bacteria.

This meant that the bacteria had DNA of phage entered inside them and this again proved that DNA not proteins are the hereditary material. You can see attached image for better understanding.

Hope it help!

Describe how living things are involved in the constant cycling of carbon?

Dominik [7]

Plants use carbon dioxide and sunlight to make their own food and grow the carbon becomes part of the plant. Plants that die and are buried may turn into fossil fuels made of carbon like coal and oil over millions of years. When humans burn fossil fuels most of the carbon quickly enters the atmosphere as carbon dioxide :) i love biology
