Answer and Explanation:
In a cell, the smaller the surface area in relation to its volume, the lower the rate of diffusion. The ratio of surface area to volume of an object decreases sharply with increase in its size. The materials move across the cell rapidly because the cell has a larger surface area to volume ratio thus the rate of diffusion of materials is high.
Answer:
2.5 billion years ago.
Explanation:
Evolutionary tree is constructed to understand the phylogeny and evolution relationship of the organism. The evolutionary tree is constructed by looking at the molecular and physiology of the different organisms.
The eukaryotes are more closely related to the archaea. Depending on the biochamical and molecular evidence is has been found that they share the common ancestor almost 2.5 billion years ago. This can also be deduced by the fossil evidence as well.
Thus, the answer is 2.5 billion years ago.
Answer:
A. The smooth, clear rock layers
Explanation:
<span>The correct answer is horizontal gene transfer, transduction.</span>
Transduction (a type of horizontal gene transfer)is the process by which foreign DNA is introduced into a bacteria cell. When viruses infect bacterial cells, their DNA is integrated into a bacterial chromosome and thus harness the replicational, transcriptional, and translation machinery of the bacteria. As a result, bacteria cell makes numerous virions (viral particles).
Answer:
1. an eclipse of the Sun
2. state (phase) of matter
3. 5.0 g/cm3
Explanation:
1. Eclipse of the sun occurs when the planetary bodies align in such a way that causes the moon to block sunlight from reaching the Earth. The eclipse of the Sun will be the most predictable occurrence because it follows a pattern of occurrence. Eclipse of the sun occurs after a specific period of time, hence, based on this, scientists can predict that when it will occur next using its previous pattern of occurrence.
2. Considering the following groups: Group A: water, aluminum, water vapor
Group B: gasoline, ice, air
Group C: alcohol, iron, oxygen
One would realize that each constituent of each group exists in a particular state of matter. For example, in group B, gasoline is a liquid, ice is a solid while air is a gaseous mixture. Same applies for group A and C where water and alcohol are liquids, iron and aluminum are solids, while water vapor and oxygen are gases.
This shows that the STATE (PHASE) OF MATTER was the basis of classification.
