B. meiosis. This process randomly rearranges the pairs of homologous chromosomes in formation of the sex cells. In addition, there is crossing-over of the chromatids while the homologous chromosomes are synapsed during meiosis I.

1) A plant gets 628.3 kcal of energy from the sun, what energy is left at the quartenary consumer level?
Jobisdone [24]

1. The energy left in the Quaternary consumer level is 0.06283 kcal.

2. 0.65 units of energy  is still available at the tertiary consumer level.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Energy flow in an ecosystem obeys the ten percentage law According to which ten percentage of energy from a trophic level gets transferred to the next trophic level. In the given question plants belong to the trophic level , producers  and it transfers 10 percentage of its energy to the primary consumer level.

In the question 1 the energy that the producers have is 628.3 kcal. Ten percentage of this i.e 62.83 kcal gets transferred to the primary consumer level. Ten percent of that which is 6.283 kcal gets transferred to the secondary consumer level.  Ten percent of 6.283 kcal i.e  0.6283 kcal energy is transferred to the tertiary consumer level.

Thus the Quaternary consumer level gets ten percentage of 0.6283 kcal i.e 0.06283 kcal. In question B the initial energy at the primary level is 650 units. Ten percentage of 650 i.e 65 units reach the primary consumer  level. Ten percentage of this 65 units then reaches the secondary consumer level. Thus the secondary consumer level has ten percent of 65 i.e 6.5 units of energy.  

So the energy that reaches the tertiary consumer level is ten percentage of 6.5 i.e 0.65 units.

In the lab, metabolic poisons can be used to study ATP synthesis and oxygen consumption. Many of these poisons have – or have ha
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Carbon monoxide and antimycin are classified as electron transport inhibitors, FCCP as uncoupling agent, oligomycin as ATP synthase inhibitors, and bongkrekic acid as transport inhibitor.

Explanation:

The electron transport inhibitors refers to the substances, which get combine with distinct constituents of the ETC and prevent the function of the carrier. These substances binds with the carrier and prevent its transformation, which eventually results in halting of the process. The most commonly known electron transport inhibitors are rotenone, carbon monoxide, antimycin, etc.

A molecule that prevents oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria and prokaryotes, or photo-phosphorylation in cyanobacteria and chloroplasts by inhibiting the production of ATP is known as ATP synthase inhibitors. The most commonly known ATP synthase inhibitor is oligomycin.

Similarly to oligomycin, FCCP or trifluorocarbonylcyanide phenylhydrazone is a potent uncoupler or uncoupling agent that prevents the synthesis of ATP by enhancing membrane proton permeability.

Bongkrekic acid refers to a highly toxic transport inhibitor that prevents the ADP/ATP translocase by combining with the inward facing site of ATP-ADP translocase.

What advantages do diatoms obtain from sexual reproduction?a. increased genetic variability.b. increased ability of populations
Reil [10]

Answer:

The correct answer is: option D. all of the above.

Explanation:

In sexual reproduction, two opposite gender gametes are fused together to form a zygote by the process called fertilization which forms the new organism that is genetically unique.

In diatoms, sexual reproduction caused various types of advantages such as higher or enhanced genetic variability as recombination occurs. It also helps the ability to responding to environmental change Increasing the population or species size and other.

Thus, the correct answer is: option D. all of the above.

Answer all of these questions about cancer.
REY [17]

Cancer is the name given to a collection of related diseases. Cancer is more than one type of disease.

In cancer, as a result of genetic mutations, this regulatory process malfunctions, resulting in uncontrolled cell proliferation.

CAD, Stroke, Respiratory illness, COPD are all diseases related to cancer.

Inherited genetic mutations play a major role in about 5 to 10 percent of all cancers.

There are many environmental pathogenic factors that can cause cancer. For example , Tar and Coal-Tar Pitch , Emissions , Secondhand Tobacco Smoke (Environmental Tobacco Smoke) , Arsenic , Soot , Asbestos , Wood Dust.

When cancer cells break away from a tumor, they can travel to other parts of the body through the bloodstream or the lymph system. Cancer is hard to treat in later stages because it probably has already spread through out the body.

The grade of a cancer depends on what the cells look like under a microscope. In general, a lower grade indicates a slower-growing cancer and a higher grade indicates a faster-growing one.

Some examples of cancer treatments of cancer are, Surgery, Chemotherapy, Radiotherapy, Cancer drugs, Hormone therapy, Stem cell and bone marrow transplants, Targeted cancer drugs.

A new treatment involving a photosensitising agent that makes cells more sensitive to light and, by doing so, causes cancer cells to be destroyed when a laser light is directed on a cancerous area.

One challenge is, druggable genomic alterations are diverse and represent only small subsets of patients in certain tumor types, which limits testing their clinical impact in biomarker-driven clinical trials. Next-generation sequencing technologies are increasingly being implemented for molecular prescreening in clinical research, but issues regarding clinical interpretation of large genomic data make their wide clinical use difficult.
