The correct answer for the question that is being presented above is this one: "Synthesized." A scientist isolates a gene from a human cell that codes for a specific protein. The gene is inserted into a bacterial plasmid in order to mass produce the protein for medical purposes. The next step in mass production of the protein would be synthesized of the bacterium containing the modified plasmid.<span>

List the four adaptation seen in Australopithecus afarensis fossils that enable biedalism.
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

hope this helps

Explanation:

Bipedal modifications include "stacking" the bulk of the body weight on a small region near the center of gravity (i.e., the head is above the chest, which is above the pelvis, which is over the knees, which is above the feet).

Which characteristic distinguishes fungal cells from plant cells
sertanlavr [38]

Answer: Feeding behaviors, trophic levels, cell wall composition, and their organelles distinguish fungi from plants.

Explanation:

While plants and fungi are both eukaryotes, they differ in terms of feeding behaviors, trophic levels, cell wall composition, and their organelles.

  • Cell walls: both are non-chain polysaccharides (sugars) that function as structural support; yet fungal cell walls are composed of chitin while plant cell walls are made up of cellulose

  • Feeding: fungi secrete compounds that digest their food sources before they can take in nutrients and they store food as <em>glycogen; </em>while plants do not require a means of pre-digesting food and store their food as <em>starch.</em>

  • Organelles: plant cells contain <em>chloroplasts</em>, small green structures with chlorophyll that causes their characteristic coloration. Unlike plants, fungi do not photosynthesize to make their own food or contain chloroplasts.

  • Trophic level: are strictly <em>heterotrophs or decomposers, </em>depending on other organisms for survival. Their chloroplasts enable them to carry out photosynthesis, thus they are <em>autotrophs or producers. </em>

Explain how scientists think about fitness
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Scientists believe that fitness is not only the ability to have physical fitness but it also refers to the adaptations that make an organism survive in its environment.

According to biological studies, biologists believe that the ability of an organism to survive in a particular area and to pass on its characteristics to its offspring is fitness.

The health scientists define fitness as the ability of an individual to be physically fit and to move without pain.

The scientists which study psychology believe that fitness is the well functioning of a person;s body as well as his/her mind.

A grocer stacks oranges in a four-sided pyramid that is 6 layers high. Solve for the number of oranges in the pile.
Vlada [557]
Each layer contains the square of the layer number.
<span>So,
Let's figure out :
1 squared = 1 </span>
<span>2 squared = 4 </span>
<span>3 squared = 9 </span>
<span>4 squared = 16 </span>
<span>5 squared = 25 
</span>6 squared = 36
<span>Hence,
The total number of oranges in the pile = 1+4+9+16+25+36
                                                               = 91 oranges

16. Why should the recessive phenotype be used first to determine the q squared value instead of the dominant phenotype to deter
podryga [215]

The recessive phenotype is used first to determine the q squared value because it is only expressed when h0m0zygous.

<h3>What is a recessive phenotype?</h3>

A recessive phenotype is a phenotype which expresses the recessive trait of a gene.

The recessive phenotype is always h0m0zygous for that triat to be expressed.

In the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium equation, the allele and phenotype frequencies are given as follows:

  • p^2 + 2pq + q^2 = 1

where;

  • p^2 is the h0m0zygous dominant phenotype frequency
  • 2pq is the heterozygous phenotype frequency
  • q^2 is the h0m0zygous recessive phenotype frequency

Therefore, the recessive phenotype is used first to determine the q squared value because it is only expressed when h0m0zygous.
