Which hormone is responsible for altering the permeability of the distal convoluted tubules to water and thus increasing water r

Sever21 [200]3 years ago
6 0
The hormone is ANTIDURETIC HORMONE, ADH.
The collecting duct and the distal convoluted tubules vary in their permeability to water based on the quantity of ADH present. The collecting duct becomes more permeable to water when the ADH production increases. As the ADH production decrease, the urine volume increases. <span />

Territorial behavior does not extend to organisms of different species. Please select the best answer from the choices provided
umka21 [38]

FALSE

All organisms use this "mechanism" to defend their food and shelter. Birds protect their nest just like all other animals and they fight for food.

I hope this answers your question.

Can we detect bacteria in pollutants using DNA profiling
Blababa [14]
Yes. You could do this by adding solvents to break down any cell walls, centrifuge to separate the DNA, if you haven't got much then upscale with PCR, gel electrophoresis could be used to detect the DNA, and Sanger sequencing to find the sequence.

If one is constructing a phylogeny of reptiles using DNA sequence data, which taxon (birds, mammals, amphibians or fish) might b
neonofarm [45]

Answer: If one is constructing a phylogeny of reptiles using DNA sequence data of birds, mammals, amphibians or fish, the suitable outgroup to be used are mammals due to the time of divergence from other group of organisms.

Explanation: Phylogeny is used to determine evolutionary relationship between items or organisms. A phylogenetic tree is a graphical illustration of phylogenetic relationship. In phylogeny, an outgroup represent an organism that is more distantly related to other group of organisms.

In a phylogenetic tree, outgroup stands alone. It shows that the time of divergence of that particular organism is far from other group of organisms. Outgroup is used to root a tree and sometimes represent a group that is more ancestral on a tree.

It should be noted that differences in the DNA sequences of the organisms under consideration will determine which organism will serve as the outgroup.

A population of wild-flowers was scored for flower color. There were 302 blue (BB) plants, 1857 violet (BR) plants and 811 red (
Paul [167]

Answer:

frequency of the blue (B) allele = 0.4142

frequency of the red (R) allele = 0.5858

The number of blue plants expected is 509.652

The number of red plants expected is 1019.304

The anticipated number of violet plants is 1441.341

Calculated chi square value

= 84.5320 + 42.5688 + 119.8692\\= 246.97

Explanation:

Frequency of blue allele is

Frequency of blue allele is equal to sum of frequency of BB and half of frequency of BR

\frac{302}{2970} + \frac{1}{2} \frac{1857}{2970} \\= 0.1016 + 0.3126\\= 0.4142

Frequency of other allele

1- 0.4142\\= 0.5858

Chi Square test

See the attached file

The number of blue plants expected is 509.652

The number of red plants expected is 1019.304

The anticipated number of violet plants is 1441.341

Calculated chi square value

= 84.5320 + 42.5688 + 119.8692\\= 246.97
