Suppose thymidine labeled with carbon-14 was added to a culture of bacteria and allowed to incubate for 20 minutes (one generati

on time). The DNA molecules were then isolated from the bacterial cells. If DNA replication is semiconservative, what would you observe about these molecules?

Answer:

One strand of all the isolated DNA double helices would have C-14 labeled thymidine.

Explanation:

DNA replication is a semiconservative process which means that each newly formed DNA double helix contains one parental strand and one newly formed strand.

Since the medium has thymidine labeled with C-14, all the newly formed strands formed during DNA replication would have radio-labeled thymidine.

Therefore, by the end of 20 minutes, one out of two strands on each double helix would have labeled thymidine nucleotides.

One difference between photosynthesis and cellular respiration is that cellular respiration occurs:
NikAS [45]
Cellular respiration, on the other hand, is the process by which living things convert oxygen and glucose to carbon dioxide and water, thereby yielding energy. It does not require the presence of sunlight and is always occurring in living organisms. Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria of cells.

3.Whenever the surfaces in contact tend to move or move with respect to each other, the force of friction comes into playRequire
fredd [130]

Answer:

The correct answer is - Friction occurs irrespective of the state of the matter.

Explanation:

Friction is the force that takes place when there are two different surfaces slide or moves across one another and causes a resistance between surfaces. The friction always takes place opposite direction to the other surface direction of moving.

Pushing a book on a table, pulling a heavy cart on road all are examples of friction. The friction that occurs in liquids and gases is called fluid friction. Thus, the friction takes place irrespective of the state of the matter.

Describe how removing the carnivore will effect the population of producers
pshichka [43]

Answer:

If there were no carnivores, the herbivore populations would explode and they will rapidly consume large amounts of plants and fungi, growing until there is not enough food to sustain them. Eventually, the herbivores would starve, leaving only those plants that were distasteful or poisonous to them.
