Answer:

a. conservative replication

b. semi conservative replication

c. dispersive replication

d. discontinuous replication

e. continuous replication

The CORRECT ANSWER IS C.

c. dispersive replication

Explanation:

The attached image shows a single band that becomes lighter (in volume) and increase in darker intensity (in times of color) is revealed with consecutive replications. The major pattern that would produce these outcome is dispersive replication.

Conservative replication do reveal two bands (a 14N for the wholly latest molecule, and a 15N for the totally antiquated molecule) after the initial replication. Therefore, this wholly wrong.

Semi-conservative replication reveal an individual band of transitional weight after the initial replication, followed by two bands following the second replication (one of transitional weight, and the other at the 14N position). These two bands is observed in each following replication, with the transitional weight becoming lighter in color as the 14N band is seen to appear darker in color.

The real pattern gives an individual band that pinpoints to all molecules in an individual replicative cycle possessing the same constituents.

Dispersive replication, has its molecules to be a blend of old (15N) and new (14N) strands. Each replication raises the ratio of new to old strands as it explains the reason an individual band is shown raised (lighter in weight) with every replication.

A major difference between the eccrine sweat glands and the appocrine sweat glands is that eccrine glands empty into/onto ______

Vlad [161]

<span>A major difference between the eccrine sweat glands and the appocrine sweat glands is that eccrine glands empty into/onto the skin surface while apocrine glands empty into/onto the hair follicle.
There are two types of sweat gland, eccrine and apocrine. As the eccrine glands empty into the skin surface, they are present all over the body particularly on forehead, palms and feet. That's why we feel more sweat on these parts of the body. while apocrine glands empty into/onto the hair follicles so they are mostly armpits.</span>

Pt2, please help asap!

SpyIntel [72]

Answer: 5. Amoebocytes have a variety of functions: delivering nutrients from choanocytes to other cells within the sponge, giving rise to eggs for sexual reproduction (which remain in the mesohyl), delivering phagocytized sperm from choanocytes to eggs, and differentiating into more-specific cell types. 6. Sponges form symbiotic relationships with a variety of microorganisms, including bacteria and algae. A symbiotic relationship between organisms is a close ecological association between two species that may be mutually beneficial or may benefit one partner at the expense of the other. However, humans are still damaging sponge populations with weighted nets and even taut fishing lines, which can slice sponges apart by accident. As a rule, anything that can affect the ocean floor will have a negative impact on sponges, as they have never developed protection against impacts. brainliest??

Describe the means by which Hershey and Chase established that only the DNA of a phage enters an E. coli cell. What conclusions

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Harshey and chase labeled T2 bacteriophage with radioactive sulfur and radioactive phosphorus. As DNA contains phosphorus, not protein and protein contain sulfur, not phosphorus, therefore, the presence of radioactivity in cell can determine which is the genetic material .

Then Harshey and Chase infected <em>E.coli</em> with T2 bacteriophage and centrifuged the cell. They found radioactive phosphorus in cell pellet and radioactive sulfur in supernatant.

So by this experiment, they concluded and proved that DNA is the genetic material that gets transfer from one generation to another.
