Explain why fingerprints are classified as individualized evidence rather than identified. In your answer be sure to tell

Biology
1 answer:
mina [271]3 years ago

Explanation:

this is why

Individualized evidence is unique and can be directly linked to a specific person/source. b) Identified evidence shares a common source it can be grouped into a class of items having similar properties.

<u>Why fingerprints are specifically individualized</u>

The basic size, shape, and spacing of dermatoglyphs appear to be influenced by genetic factors. ... These developmental factors cause each person's dermatoglyphs to be different from everyone else's. Even identical twins, who have the same DNA, have different fingerprints.

Gene expression—translation how do cells synthesize polypeptides and convert them to functional proteins?
slavikrds [6]
The language of DNA in form of nitrogen bases read in a set of three termed as codons and it is being translated as language of proteins.

First mRNA is read according to the genetic code which can relate the amino acid sequence to proteins. mRNA can be use as the template to assemble in order the chain of amino acid. Translation starts when the mRNA is decoded and the sequence is elongated  until creating an amino acid sequence. Once the stop codon is reached, translation will be stopped and ribosome will release the polypeptide.

Compare and contrast polysaccharides and nucleic acids in terms of monomer diversity and how they monomers are joined together
harkovskaia [24]

The monomer units of the carbohydrates vary in their total numbers extensively. Moreover, positions of the carbonyl groups along with the orientation of the hydroxyl groups also vary in the carbohydrates' monomers. The presence of any modification is also variable.

On the other hand, the nucleic acids have only 4 monomeric units. The linkages between the nucleic acid residues have less geometry than the glycosidic linkages.

Match the following. 1. the basic building block of all forms of life resolving power 2. the idea of Schleiden and Schwann that
Roman55 [17]

Answer:

1. Cell

2. cell theory

3. Organismal theory

4. resolving power

Explanation:

The cell is the smallest known unit of all living organisms. They are called the building blocks of life. An organism can be unicellular (made up of one cell) or multi-cellular (made up of many cells).

2. Cell theory was formulated and developed  by Schleiden, Schwann, and Virchow. They are considered as the basic principles of biology.

It states:

1. Living organisms are made up of cells.

2. Cells are the basic unit of life.

3. Cells are formed from pre-existing cells.

4. Energy flows inside the cell.

5. DNA is passed on from cell to cell.

6. All cells have the same basic chemical composition.

3. Organismal theory is the intended counter-argument of the cell theory. It was developed by Reichert, Strasberger, Sherrington, and Pavlov. It argues that the basic unit of life is the organism itself, suggesting that an organism came about from a cell that expanded.

4. Resolving power is the ability of an optical instrument like a microscope or a telescope to view objects that are close together as separate, abling the viewer to distinguish the two from each other.

How many food calories can a human burn up in an hour by exercising at this rate? (remember that only 20.0 % of the food energy
blsea [12.9K]

Human can produce a maximum mechanical power of 1/3 hp (horse-power).

Horse power is a unit of power, it equals 746 watt (watt is also a power unit, known to be equal to a joule per second)


So:

1 ph = 746 watt = 746 J/s

1/3 ph = 248.6 J/s

we're looking for the calories, so

1 joule = 0.239006 calories


So human produce a maximum mechanical power of:

248.6 J/s = 82.88 calories per second.


We're looking for the number of calories consumed in three hours, so:

82.88 cal/s = 82.88 cal/s * 3600 s * 3 = 895200 calories = 895.2 kilocalories (food calories).


The number of food calories is 895.2 food calories
