As part of an experiment on circadian rhythms, a laboratory rat’s brain has been lesioned. The animal is now falling asleep and

waking up at random times of the day and night. Which part of the brain has most likely been damaged in this experiment?

Answer:the part of the brain that has most likely been damaged in this experiment is the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) found in the hypothalamus of the brain.

Explanation:

circadian rhythms are behavioural changes that respond to light and darkness in an organisms environment. The sleep-inducing wake cycle is a good example of a circadian rhythm. In the experiment, the disruption of the mouse SCN led to development of imbalances in the circadian rhythm of sleep and wake cycle leading to falling asleep and waking up at random times of the day and night. I hope this helps. Thanks

In a diploid species of plant, the genes for plant height and fruit shape are syntenic and separated by 18 m.u. Allele D produce
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

C)Parental: 41% Dr, 41% dR; recombinant: 9% DR, 9% dr.

Explanation:

The notation Dr/dR for genotypes means that one homologous chromosome has the alleles Dr and the other homologous chromosome has the alleles dR.

The heterozygous plant  Dr/dR will produce 4 types of gametes: two identical to the chromosmes the individual has in its somatic cells (called parental), and two gametes which will be a mix of the alleles in the homologous chromosomes (called recombinant).

  • Dr: parental
  • dR: parental
  • DR: recombinant
  • dr: recombinant

To calculate the frequency of each type of gamete, we must use the formula:

Distance (map units) / 100 = frequency of recombination.

18 mu / 100 = 0.18.

The total frequency of recombination between the genes D and R is 0.18, but every time crossing over happens, two recombinant gametes are generated. Therefore, each recombinant gamete will have a frequency of 0.18/2=0.09 = 9%.

The frequency of parental gametes will be:

1 - frequency of recombinant gametes

1 - 0.18 = 0.82

But there are 2 parental gametes, so each of them will have a frequency of 0.82/2=0.41 = 41%.

How does the water affects the hydrophilic heads and the hydrophobic tails to form a lipid bilayer cell membranes?
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

The phosphate head of the phospholipid is hydrophilic because it is polar (having charge), and thus readily dissolves in water which is a polar solvent. The hydrocarbon chain tails of phospholipid are hydrophobic because they are nonpolar (uncharged), and thus remain undissolved by water. These hydrocarbon tails have an affinity for each other, orienting themselves to face each other in water, forming the hydrophobic …

What do we call large molecules that are found in living things?
Sliva [168]

Answer:

basically "building blocks"

Explanation:

Living things are made up of very large molecules. These large molecules are called macromolecules because “macro” means large; they are made by smaller molecules bonding together. Our body gets these smaller molecules, the "building blocks" or monomers, of organic molecules from the food we eat.

What happens to glucose during cellular respiration
nekit [7.7K]

Explanation:

During cellular respiration, glucose is broken down and energy is released in the process.

  • Cellular respiration is a metabolic process by which energy is produced.
  • In this process, chemical energy stored in the chains of the glucose atoms are transformed into heat energy.
  • In cellular respiration, glucose combines with oxygen.
  • The product is the formation of carbon dioxide and water with the release of energy.
  • This energy is stored in form of ATP.
  • To be released, one Phosphate is detached to produce ADP.
