A Hypertonic solution:_______.

Biology
1 answer:
Varvara68 [4.7K]4 years ago
5 0

Answer:

4) will induce cell shrinkag

Explanation:

Hpertonic Solution; External solution which is more concentrated (have more solute) than the solutions inside the cell.

More concentrated solution will have the lesser water potential and water will flow from higher potential to lower potential. So the water will flow towards the hypertonic solution from the cell. Consequently less water inside the cell will cause the cell shrinkage.

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

A) One band of intermediate density and one band of heavy density.

Explanation:

According to semi conservative model of replication the two DNA strands separate during replication such that the new DNA molecule has one parental strand and one new strand. In this experiment, originally E.Coli cells were grown in 14N medium so all the DNA strands had 14N. When the medium was changed to 15N, only 15N would be available to the cells for replication.

After first round of replication all DNA molecules would be of intermediate density as one strand would be old 14N strand and another would be new 15N strand. After second round of replication 15N strand would be formed from both 14N strand and 15N strand. So, one band will be formed of intermediate density (14N-15N) and another would be of heavier density (15N-15N).

Identify two chemicals in digestive juice in the stomach and explain what they do
sergeinik [125]

- enzyme pepsin: chemically digests the proteins in the food, breaking down into amino acids

- hydrochloric acid (strong acid): provides an acid environment for pepsin and kills bacteria (food); without this acid, the stomach could not function properly.

Scientists have successfully cloned animals, including mammals such as sheep. Which statement provides the most likely reason th
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

4) Some people consider human genetic experiments

unethical.

Explanation:

1) Humans have DNA that is structurally very different from

other mammals.

2) Cloning can only he performed on animals that normally

reproduce asexually.

3) Human genes are made of too many different types of

simple sugars.

4) Some people consider human genetic experiments

unethical.

The statement that provides the most likely reason that a human has not yet been cloned is that some people consider human genetic experiment unethical.

<em>Option 1 is incorrect because human DNA is similar in structure to other living organisms with components such as a phosphate group, a deoxyribose sugar and purine/pyrimidine bases.</em>

<em>Option 2 is incorrect because cloning is not limited to asexually reproducing organisms only. Sheep, for example, produces only sexually and has been successfully been cloned.</em>

<em>Option 3 is incorrect because human genes, just like every other organisms is consist of DNA with deoxyribose pentose sugar being one of the components. The situation of too many different types of simple sugars doe not arise.</em>

The correct option is 4.

Which nitrogenous bases are needed to complete the DNA strand pictured below?
Paul [167]

Explanation:

Template: T, A, C, G

Pairing: T- A, A-T, C-G, G-C

Answer: adenine, thymine, guanine, cytosine

Further explanation:

Nucleic acids are comprised of smaller units called nucleotides and function as storage for the body’s genetic information. These monomers include ribonucleic acid (RNA) or deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). They differ from other macromolecules since they don’t provide the body with energy. They exist solely to encode and protein synthesis.

Basic makeup: C, H, O, P; they contain phosphate group 5 carbon sugar, these nitrogen bases which may contain single to double bond ring.

DNA stores all of an organism’s genetic information. Its molecules comprise the nitrogenous bases Guanine, Adenine, Cytosine and Thymine. These pair up as base pairs due to their varied structure- largely influenced by the location of N molecule ;

  • cytosine and thymine are formed from pyrimidines- N at position 1 and 3 of a fused ring;
  • Guanine and adenine are formed from organic compounds called purines (pyramidines fused to another organic ring of imidazole)
  • Each base pair contains a purine and pyrimidine joined via hydrogen bonding e.g. A-T & G-C and are called base complements.

In certain combinations, these bases form codons which act as instructions for protein synthesis. Codons are three nucleotide bases encoding an amino acid or signal at the beginning or end of protein synthesis.
