In class, your professor shows you the skulls of three mammals. In one, the eye would be fully enclosed by bone. In the second,

there is a bony circle around where the eye goes, but it is open in the back. In the third, the place where the eye would be is not encircled by bone at all. This suggests to you that a. the first one is an anthropoid primate; the fully enclosed orbit is probably beneficial in an organism that relies heavily on vision. b. all three species are probably nocturnal; otherwise, it would be impossible to find evidence of eyes given only the skull. c. the third one is an anthropoid primate, because an organism with a highly developed sense of vision needs more room to move the eyes around. d. the second one, with the bony bar around the eye, is probably not a primate.

Answer:

C

Explanation:

It is more probable that the third one has a more developed sense of the vision with a large eye, and its movements. Also with a opened back to receive its nutrition and optic nerve.

Imagine that zika virus has a 1% incidence in the population. A test for the virus has a 3% false positive rate and no false neg
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

The answer is 97%.

Explanation:

The zika virus' 1% incidence rate in the population has no effect over the probability of the patient being infected or not. If the test has a 3% false positive rate that means that if it is positive, the results have a 97% chance of being true. Therefore the chance that the person who took the test and had a positive result being actually infected is 97%.

I hope this answer helps.

Describe how a plasmid can be genetically modified to include a piece of foreign dna that alters the phenotype of bacterial cell
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
Simple version:

First, the section with the desirable gene must be identified. Assuming that has already happened, the section of DNA must be excised from the original genome using restriction enzymes, which recognize certain DNA sequences and snip DNA at those sites. DNA ligase is used to "glue" these ends back together. The DNA is inserted into a plasmid (also with restriction enzymes), which would usually contain antibiotic-resistance genes (so they survive in an environment containing the antibiotic, which would also help show if the bacteria have been successfully transformed). 

Then comes the actual transformation process. The bacteria to be transformed are mixed with calcium chloride (which causes the bacteria to be more receptive to the plasmids) and then mixed with the plasmids. The bacterial cells are subjected to a heat shock (the solution is heated and rapidly cooled, e.g. by placing the mixture in a hot water bath and quickly transferred to ice) so they will take up the plasmid (since the temperature change makes the membrane more permeable). The bacteria are placed on a growth medium containing the antibiotic they're resistant to. Only those successfully transformed would survive.
