The answer is C because salt water is hypertonic as compared to the solution inside the Amoeba cell. When it is placed in salt water it will lose water by exosmosis and will shrink.

I have two questions. please answer asap. this is living env.
Bingel [31]

<em>1.) </em>Based on the beliefs of some humans, cloning is not ethical. They fear that cloning can cause mental or physical damage to the organism that is cloned, they also believe it to be unethical because animals that are cloned are usually placed in poor living conditions before, during, or after the experimentation.

<em>2.) </em>Again, there is of course a difference scientifically, but ethically, no. The genetic structure of monkeys and humans are quite similar so cloning monkeys lead to advancements in cloning humans but they are still two totally different organisms... When ethics come into play, people would be more quick to say, "If you won't clone humans, then you shouldn't clone a monkey." Or something along those lines.

"Apo-repressor of trp operon is an inactive form of repressor." Justify this statement. Select one of the options below as your
Ad libitum [116K]

For the problem presented, the answer that would justify this statement is Apo-repressor can only bind to the operator site of trp operon when a tryptophan molecule, which is a co-repressor, binds to it. The correct answer between all the choices given is the first choice or letter A. I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query about this specific question.

Frameshift mutation are the result of what occurrence?​
Alisiya [41]

Explanation:

A frameshift mutation (also called a framing error or a reading frame shift) is a genetic mutation caused by indels (insertions or deletions) of a number of nucleotides in a DNA sequence that is not divisible by three. Due to the triplet nature of gene expression by codons, the insertion or deletion can change the reading frame (the grouping of the codons), resulting in a completely different translation from the original. The earlier in the sequence the deletion or insertion occurs, the more altered the protein. A frameshift mutation is not the same as a single-nucleotide polymorphism in which a nucleotide is replaced, rather than inserted or deleted. A frameshift mutation will in general cause the reading of the codons after the mutation to code for different amino acids. The frameshift mutation will also alter the first stop codon ("UAA", "UGA" or "UAG") encountered in the sequence. The polypeptide being created could be abnormally short or abnormally long, and will most likely not be functional.

When plants are stressed by dry conditions, they secrete the hormone abscisic acid (ABA) and in response the stomata close, even
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

C. K+ ions flow out the the guard cells and water flows out the cells.

Explanation:

The turgidity of the guard cells allows the opening and closing of the stomata. This is especially necessary when it comes to water conservation in plants. In order for the cells to become turgid or flaccid, there must be the influx and out ward movement of water via osmosis.

In order for this the occur the osmotic pressure of the cellular environment must change and this is done by changing the solute concentration.

The pumping in of K+ ions out the cell allows the solute concentration to decrease and this in turn encourages the movement of water across a concentration gradient through a semi-permiable membrane.

The water leaves the guard cells and they become flaccid. This causes the stomata to be covered.
