Answer:
A slug would shrink and die if you were to sprinkle salt on in because it would cause water to leave the cells of the slug through the aquaporins in the cell membrane. This is because through osmosis water balances itself with the solute to reach equillibrium. When you pour salt on the slug you are making the outside a hypertonic solution that is going to draw out the water in the slug's cells.

Answer:
12-14 october
Explanation:
The probable period of exposure is calculated as follows:
- Know the range of the incubation period
- Start counting back from the days of the first case by subtracting the first number of incubation period range
- Count back the days from the last case by subtracting the last number of incubation period range.
- This will give a range which will be the period of exposure.
From the question,
- Incubation period range 1-15
- Date of first case = october 15
- Therefore, first date of exposure = 15 -1 = 14
- Date of last case = 22
- Therefore, last date of exposure = 27 - 15 = 12
- Thus, the range is 12-14 october which is the probable period of exposure.
Gel electrophoresis is a method of genetic analysis which involves seperating segments of DNA based on their size and charge.
It involves cutting DNA with various enzymes, then placing the DNA in an agarose gel. An electrical current is then run through the gel. Because DNA is a polar molecule the DNA segments will travel through the agarose cell as the current is applied. Larger fragments will travel shorter distances than shorter fragments. Two plates with 2 different DNA samples will be conducted and the orientation of the DNA strands will be used to make an analysis by comparing the 2 plates.
Explanation:
As a characteristic of all living things, homeostasis relates most directly to which of the following biological themes?
A.) Interacting systems.
B.) Stability.
C.) Evolution.
D.) Scale and structure.
Correct: B.) Stability.
During homeostasis the body maintains a constant internal balance (stability) in pH, temperature, blood pressure etc. Cells in a multicellular organism become specialized for particular tasks and communicate with one another in order to maintain homeostasis.
Within the human body these are known as hormone cascades, where several complex steps occur- the tissues signal to one another with the use of hormones released by the endocrine system. The regulation (increase and decrease) of these secretions is achieved by negative feedback loops, where the release of certain substances during a cascade in turn halts the secretion of hormones at earlier stages.
