Options are not provided inthe question. Th ecomplete question is as following:

In the classic Meselson and Stahl experiment, Coli are first grown in 15N-enriched media (0th generation) and subsequently switched to 14N media. A DNA sample isolated during the first generation of E. Coli grown in 14N media is subjected to a centrifugation step in a dense CsCl gradient. Assuming that replication occurs in a semiconservative fashion, the DNA sample will _______.

1) run as two bands (of equal intensity), one at the same position as a uniformly 15N-labeled DNA, and one at the same position as a uniformly 14N-labeled DNA.

2) run as one band, at the same position as a uniformly 15N-labeled DNA.

3) run as one band, at the same position as a uniformly 14N-labeled DNA. run as one band, at a position expected for a DNA containing a 14N:15N ratio equal to 7.

4) run as one band, at a position expected for a DNA containing a 14N:15N ratio equal to 1.

Answer:

1)

Explanation:

In 1957, Meselson and Stahl gave an experimental evidence for semi-conservative replication  of DNA, means that each DNA strand act as template for synthesis of new DNA.

For the experiment, they use  E. coli grown in heavy isotope of 15N nitrogen and switch to 14N nitrogen undergoing one, two, or three generations and the DNA samples are collected. The DNA samples are then mix with cesium chloride and separated as light and heavy DNA.

As the replication occurs in a semiconservative fashion, the double DNA sample will run as two bands with intermediate density, having mixtures of 15N and 14N DNA, either of which would have appeared as DNA.

Hence, the correct option is (1).

What is the difference between homeostasis and respiration​
Verizon [17]

Answer:

Abstract

Respiratory homeostasis is concerned with the regulation of a blood gas composition that is compatible with maintaining cellular homeostasis. Provided that the lung-capillary exchange barrier does not prevent the exchange of gases, then blood leaving the lung will have oxygen and carbon dioxide partial pressures that are similar to the average values found in the alveoli. Alveolar ventilation establishes these values. If blood gas composition, especially of carbon dioxide, moves outside the homeostatic range, the change is detected by chemoreceptors and respiratory responses are promoted which change alveolar ventilation, alter alveolar gas composition and so reverse the change. Ventilation therapies provide the means of artificially restoring alveolar gas composition. In general terms, they do this by raising the partial pressure of oxygen within the alveoli either by using oxygen-enriched gas mixtures, or by improving the ventilation of alveoli using positive pressure.

Why do animals have a specialized form of cellular reproduction (meiosis) in addition to the much more common for used for growt
ratelena [41]

This is because the cells we need for reproduction need to be genetically different from those of the rest of the body.

Cellular reproduction

When a mother cell divides into two or more daughter cells, this process is known as cell division.  Cell division frequently takes place as a component of a longer cell cycle. There are two different types of cell division in eukaryotes: a vegetative division (mitosis), in which each daughter cell inherits the genetic makeup of the parent cell, and a reproductive division (gametogenesis), in which the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is cut in half to produce haploid gametes (meiosis).  In cell biology, the process of mitosis, during which replicated chromosomes are split into two new nuclei, is a stage of the cell cycle. The number of chromosomes is maintained in the genetically identical cells produced by cell division.

How many peaks does the landform in the topographic map contain?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

3 peaks

Explanation:

Topographic map is used to show different landforms using different symbols. There are two important elements of landforms that include elevation and slope. It uses contour lines to portray different features of lands on the map such as slope and elevation.

<em>According to topographic maps, more close are the counter lines, more elevation are in the landforms. </em>

Peak is the pointed top of mountains. In this topographic maps peaks or elevation is shown in the form of irregular spherical shape. There are 4 elevations in the map but only 3 shows the peak according to counter line formation and the fourth elevation will not have peak on the top.

Hence, the given topographic map has only 3 peaks in the landform.
