Vibrio cholerae produces a toxin that binds to a plasma membrane receptor on intestinal cells of the host. The toxin permanently

activates the G protein in target cells, causing them to lose water rapidly. When a person is infected with cholera they suffer severe dehydration.The V. cholerae toxin disrupts homeostasis in humans by ___________.
causing severe diarrhea and water loss in affected cells and surrounding tissues



damaging skin cells leading to external erosion and ulceration



superficial dehydration through direct drying of intestinal tissues



killing intestinal cells and leading to rapid replacement via mitosis

Edith and her pal Dave love to catch butterflies in the nearby fields! The fields are home to a special type of green butterfly
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

The probability of obtaining a "goober" butterfly is 6.25%

Explanation

If there are three possible combinations of butterflies, with yellow and blue being dominant, green is supposed to contain a recessive pattern, so according to Mendel's law of character independence, the pattern RR and BB manifest the dominant phenotype yellow, blue or yellow and blue in spots, the green pattern must be recessive is represented by the letter a, the punnett graph is made, obtaining that 56% present a dominant pattern, 37.5% will be spotted and the pattern recessive must match to generate 6.25% of butterflies “goober”.

what do you think causes different phenotypes in organisms how does the phenotype depend on its genes (genotype)​
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

They difference in phenotypes is dependent on the genes. The more dominant gene will overpower a recessive gene, or if there are two recessive genes together, that will be the phenotype. When things are cross breaded they introduce different genotypes that allow for different looking phenotypes.

Example: Dominant blue flower (Bb)  mixed with recessive yellow flower (bb)

        B            b

b       Bb          bb

b       Bb          bb

There is a 50/50 chance the offspring will be either blue or yellow

3 symbiotic relationships
shtirl [24]

Answer: Imagine life without your best friend. Who would you hang out with and talk to about your problems? Life would be so lonely! You rely on your friends for companionship, fun, and support. Animals rely on each other, too. Some have lifelong relationships with other organisms, called symbiotic relationships. There are three different types of symbiotic relationships: mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism.

Mutualism: both partners benefit. An example of mutualism is the relationship between the Egyptian plover and the crocodile. In the tropical regions of Africa, the crocodile lies with its mouth open. The plover flies into its mouth and feeds on bits of decaying meat stuck in the crocodile’s teeth. The crocodile does not eat the plover. Instead, he appreciates the dental work. The plover eats a meal and the crocodile gets his teeth cleaned. Coincidentally, the Egyptian plover is also known as the crocodile bird.

Commensalism: only one species benefits while the other is neither helped nor harmed. For example, remora fish are very bony and have a dorsal fin (the fin on the back of fish) that acts like a suction cup. Remora fish use this fin to attach themselves to whales, sharks, or rays and eat the scraps their hosts leave behind. The remora fish gets a meal, while its host gets nothing. Selfish, sure, but neither gets hurt.

Parasitism: One organism (the parasite) gains, while the other (the host) suffers. The deer tick is a parasite. It attaches to a warmblooded animal and feeds on its blood. Ticks need blood at every stage of their life cycle. They also carry Lyme disease, an illness that can cause joint damage, heart complications, and kidney problems. The tick benefits from eating the animal's blood. Unfortunately, the animal suffers from the loss of blood and nutrients and may get sick.
