Alice wants to find out whether her pet gecko finds its prey based on vision. She thinks that her gecko will more easily see the

colored crickets. She follows these steps:
1) Get 10 similar crickets from the pet store
2) Tag 5 of the crickets by putting a tiny dab of bright coloring on their backs
3) Release all 10 crickets into the terrarium with the gecko at the same time
4) After several hours, record the number of tagged and non-tagged crickets still alive in the terrarium
After several hours, Alice notes that only 4 non-tagged crickets were still alive in the terrarium. No tagged crickets were observed. She concludes that her gecko uses mostly its vision to capture and eat its prey.

What is another possible explanation for these results?
A.
The gecko only eats crickets that have a certain bright color.
B.
The crickets should have been introduced at different times.
C.
The cricket was attracted to the scent of the coloring.
D.
The gecko prefers other species of crickets to the one Alice used.

How many moles would there be in 100 g of glucose? In 500 g of glucose? SHOW WORK
vivado [14]

Answer:

a) 0.56moles

b) 2.78moles

Explanation:

The number of moles can be calculated by using the formula;

Mole (n) = Mass (M) ÷ Molar mass (MM)

For a glucose molecule, with chemical formula: C6H12O6

Where atomic mass of C= 12, H=1, O= 16

Molar mass of C6H12O6= 12(6) + 1(12) + 16(6)

= 72 + 12 + 96

= 180g/mol

a) In 100g of glucose;

Mole = 100/180

Mole = 0.56moles

b) In 500g of glucose

Mole = 500/180

Mole = 2.78moles

Photosynthesis occurs in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. How do the locations where photosynthesis occurs differ in prokaryotes
mamaluj [8]

Answer/Explanation:

In eukaryotes, photosynthesis occurs mainly in green plants. These organisms have specialized organelles called chloroplasts that carry out photosynthesis. These contain photoreceptors that absorb photons from the sun through a pigment called chlorophyll, providing the energy to synthesise glucose from carbon dioxide and water.

In contrast, prokaryotes that carry out photosynthesis are able to do so because they have folds in the plasma membrane that permit the attachment of chlorophyll. They do not have specialized membrane-bound organelles like eukaryotes.

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Inbreeding leaves animals susceptible to genetic disease, and populations to reduced fitness. This family of three would not be able to sustain a population given their a) group dynamics and b) genetic variation

Explanation:

In small populations, the variation in genetic material is likely to be low. The consequence of this is that there is increased homozygosity. That means less members of the population carry two different alleles of a gene for any given trait. This increases the chance of the appearance of recessive traits, which could be disease causing or otherwise reduce fitness.

With only three related individuals left, the chances of generating a new and thriving population with the limited genetic material is almost non existent, especially considering the animals are a male, female and their pup
