Answer:

Taking into account the principle of osmosis, the question that best addresses experimental design is  <em>How does the effect of environmental sucrose concentrations impact the  movement of water across a membrane?</em>

Explanation:

The experimental design of the student, made with dialysis bags and sucrose at different concentrations should recreate the principle of osmosis, of importance in living beings for organic homeostasis.

Osmosis consists of the movement of water - through a semi-permeable membrane - from a less concentrated solution to a higher concentration solution, following a gradient, to achieve balance.  

The student will observe in his experiment that water moves from the solution with less sucrose concentration to the higher concentration of sugar. Beakers with the highest concentration of sucrose will have the highest weight, due to the increase in liquid volume.

How does the effect of environmental sucrose concentrations impact the  movement of water across a membrane?

The experiment shows that:

  1. The water from the beaker with less sucrose concentration moved -through the dialysis tubes and the membrane- to the beaker containing the most concentrated sucrose.
  2. Different sucrose concentrations will attract different amounts of water, which influences the final weight of each container.

With this experiment the principle of osmosis is confirmed, where the concentration of a solute determines the amount of water that passes through a semipermeable membrane -following a concentration gradient- until equilibrium is reached.

Answer:

C- How does the effect of environmental sucrose concentrations impact the movement of water across a membrane?

Explanation:

The variable in this experiment is the sucrose solutions (independent) and the change in mass of the dialysis bags (dependent). Therefore, the best question to be asked is how does the sucrose concentrations impact the change in mass due to water moving across the membrane.

Some people worry that the increasing number of cell phones will cause cancer because of the energy of the radio waves they emit
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Cell phones emit radiofrequency energy, a form of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation, which can be absorbed by tissues close to the phone. The amount of radiofrequency energy a person is exposed to depends on the frequency of the signal and the amount of time they spend on the phone. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), and the American Cancer Society (ACS) all agree that more research is needed to determine the possible health effects of cell phone use. So far, there is no scientific evidence that proves that cell phone use causes cancer. Some studies have suggested a possible link between cell phone use and cancer, but more research is needed to confirm these results. The ACS does not recommend limiting cell phone use because the risk of cancer is still unknown.

Hope this helps!

Restriction endonucleases are especially useful if they generate sticky ends. What makes an end sticky?
Mazyrski [523]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A) single-stranded complementary tails

B) blunt ends

C) poly-A sequences

D) 5' cap

E) interference

Answer:

A) single stranded complementary tails

Explanation:

Restriction endonuclease is the enzyme which cuts the DNA sequence in the internal sequence.

The endonuclease enzyme can cut the DNA sequence in a way that it can form the cuts with the single-stranded overhangs called sticky ends and without overhangs called blunt ends.

The sticky ends are produced when the enzyme makes cut at the single strand and then makes the cut at between the same base at the nitrogenous base. This type of asymmetrical cut forms the single-stranded overhangs which can form the complementary base pairs easily.

Thus, Option-A is correct.
