The correct answer would be carcinogens. Carcinogens can disrupt cellular homeostasis and can even lead to uncontrolled cell division and form of cancers. These are substances that damages the cellular metabolic processes in the body. Carcinogens are found everywhere; it may be in our food, radiation or even some of the ingredients of the things we use daily.

Verdadero o falso mediante el genotipo podemos determinar si existen dominancia en una característica
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Verdadero

Explanation:

Sabemos que los caracteres dependen de los genes. Y los genes pueden presentarse en forma de alelos dominantes, o alelos recesivos. La expresión de los alelos recesivos son enmascarados o escondidos por el alelo dominante. Es decir, que si ambos alelos se encuentran juntos en un heterocigota, solo el alelo dominante se expresará.

Entonces el alelo dominante expresa la característica que resulta dominante, mientras que el alelo recesivo expresa la característica recesiva.

Genotipo:

  • Homocigota dominante ----> Expresa caracter dominante (Solo el alelo dominante esta presente)
  • Heterocigota -------------------> Expresa el caracter dominante (Ambos alelos estan presentes, pero el dominante es quien se expresa)
  • Homocigota recesivo --------> Expresa el caracter recesivo (solo alelos recesivos estan presentes)

Por ejemplo, si tenemos dos fenotipos rojo y amarillo, y sabemos que el color esta codificado por un gen dialelico llamado M. También supongamos que no sabemos qué alelo expresa qué color. Teniendo solo estos datos, no podemos decir si el rojo es el color dominante o si el amarillo lo es.

Sin embargo, si tenemos los siguientes genotipos acompañando esta información:

  • MM--> Amarillo
  • Mm--> Amarillo
  • mm --> Rojo

Recién ahora podemos deducir que el caracter dominante es el amarillo.

The pad of fatty tissue that covers the area of the pubic bone is called the ________.
Anettt [7]

The pad of fatty tissue that covers the area of the pubic bone is called the mons pubis

The pubic bone is protected by a fatty cushion called the mons pubis. The mons, or mons veneris in females, is another name for it. Although both have a mons pubis, females tend to have it more pronounced.

Females tend to have a large mound of tissue that is typically covered in pubic hair. During sexual contact, the mons pubis serves as a source of cushioning. Sebaceous glands that release pheromones to promote physical attraction are also found in the mons pubis.

The mons pubis is a part of the vulva. This is the rounded region in the bottom portion of the belly that is in front of the pubic bones (abdomen). At puberty, it grows hair all over it. The vulva has two skin folds.

Write a short discussion describing trends in the data: compare the control cups (distilled water) versus the experimental cups
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

The leaf discs only float in bicarbonate solution and in the light environment.

Explanation:

The bicarbonate dissolves in water to produce a source of inorganic CO2 in the reaction:

NaHCO3 + H2O → H2CO3 + OH- + Na+

Then, the HCO3- undergoes fixation through several complex steps in order to form a carbohydrate or sugar. These store the converted solar energy in their bonds as chemical energy to be used in metabolism.

Photosynthesis is a chemical process, essential to plant and other primary producers producing energy. Energy in the form of glucose molecules is derived from solar or light energy, water, and inorganic carbon dioxide, while it releases oxygen (from the light reaction). The leaf discs float as O2 gas is produced, making them buoyant.

6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Carbon dioxide + water + energy= glucose + oxygen
