Cell culture inserts/microporous membranes promote the proper phenotype of a variety of endothelial cells including kidney cells

, intestinal epithelial cells and others. Equally as important is the fact that these devices can be used to study transcytosis, a process discussed briefly in the cell culture lecture.
What is transcytosis and why does the device described above allow one to study this process compared to a typical, plastic cell culture plate?

Answer:

Explanation:

Transcytosis is the transfer of molecules across cells from one side to the other, a process that entails endocytosis, vesicular transfer and exocytosis, and which speeds the bulk movement of molecules through tissues.

In a certain population of fruit flies, 640 out of 1000 have red eyes, while the remainder have sepia eyes. The sepia eye trait
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The correct answer is 160.

Explanation:

Based on the given question, the total number of fruit flies is 1000, of which red eye flies are 640. Thus, the number of sepia eye flies will be 1000-640 = 360.  

On the basis of the Hardy-Weinberg equation, p+q = 1, in which p is the rate of recurrence of one allele, that is, dominant and q is the rate of recurrence of the other allele, that is, recessive.  

q^2 for the population is 360/1000 = 0.36, q = 0.6.  

Therefore, p = 1-q = 1-0.6 = 0.4.  

The frequency of homozygous dominant allele is denoted by p^2 = 0.16.  

Hence, the number of homozygous dominant for red eye color would be 16% of 1000 which will be equal to 160.

The correct answer is D)

Cycle energy and matter to support the biosphere as a closed energy system

Explanation:  

The earth as we know it is a closed energy system that is, matter cannot be introduced or removed from it. Sometimes, rare meterites enter into the system with minimal or no disruption.

Also, energy can enter and leave. The energy mostly referenced here is the sun.

Within the earths system, the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and biosphere materials and energy go through a cycle which helps to support life.

For example, water when heated up by the sun rises as vapour from the earth and oceans into the atmosphere where it cools and condenses. When it cools and condenses, it , in the form of rain, comes down on the earth and oceans. As rain falls down to the earth and runs off the rocks, rocks are broken down into smaller fragments and soils.  The hydrosphere comprises of all water bodies on earth. Besides the vapours which are evaporated from the same into the atmosphere, when volcanoes erupt they also send vapourised water into the atmosphere.

So because the earth is a closed system, a change in one sphere effects a change in others. An example is a change in the water cycle.

Cheers

Which of the following is correct?
igor_vitrenko [27]

The correct statement is: (2) Sister chromatids are genetically identical.

Sister chromatids are the copies of a single chromosome. These are therefore genetically identical. The sister chromatids are joined together at the region called centromere with the help of certain proteins. The chromatids are formed during the S phase of the interphase due to a process called duplication.

Chromosome is the compact form of DNA. It consists of the genetic material and certain proteins called histone proteins. The main role of chromosome can be seen during cell division. This is because the division of genetic material takes place in the chromosomal form.

Which statement is true about the law of reflection?
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The law of reflection defines that upon reflection from a smooth surface, the angle of the reflected ray is equal to the angle of the incident ray, with respect to the normal to the surface that is to a line perpendicular to the surface at the point of contact.

The reflected ray is always in the plane defined by the incident ray and the normal to the surface at the point of contact of the incident ray.

The images produced by plane mirrors and curved mirrors can be understood by the law of reflection.

Law of reflection is defined as:

The principle when the light rays falls on the smooth surface, the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence, also the incident ray, the reflected ray, and the normal to the surface all lie in the same plane.

What is Reflection of Light?

The process through which light rays fall on the surface and gets bounced back is known as a reflection of light.
