You own a winery in Napa Valley. An assistant accidentally leaves the lid for a vat of wine slightly ajar. Would the yeast insid

e continue to perform alcoholic fermentation? Briefly explain your answer with some details about what would happen.

<span>When the lid for a vat of wine is slightly open, the yeast inside can continue to perform alcoholic fermentation because the carbon dioxide produced by the yeast during fermentation will act as a blanket over the wine.  Nevertheless, the air around the fermenter must be still and enough carbon dioxide should be produced to continue alcoholic fermentation. However, at some point, carbon dioxide will fall and can no longer protect the wine. This is the right time to get your wine covered before it will be vulnerable to undesirable microorganisms. </span>

Therefore, open fermentation is good in the early stages of fermentation because yeast need oxygen to synthesize sterols and assimilate fatty acids to ensure the nutrients it needs to multiply and ferment the 70% of the sugar from the fruit. Furthermore, the yeast is responsible in decomposing sugar from the grapes into alcohol and carbon dioxide.

How are viruses different from bacteria
Butoxors [25]

I believe the correct answer is that viruses are not cells while bacteria are cells with organelles.

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h3>Viruses</h3>

Viruses can simply be explained as genetic materials enclosed in capsules that protects them from the immune system.

Viruses need a host to survive since they lack a mechanism to replicate in meaning they are obligate intracellular organisms.

Reproduction of viruses is through attaching their DNA or RNA into the machinery of the host that replicates them as part of the normal DNA of the cell.

They are the smallest living organisms and cannot be seen microscopically.

They cannot be infected but rather can infect bacteria

They have a capsid that protects the viral material and also contains the receptors attachments that are able to attach to the specific sites which they are infecting. Some of them have an extra layer of a membrane that is called an envelope that further protects the viruses from their hostile environment

They are treated by antiviral medications that affects their replication on normal cells.

They are pathogenic by destroying the cells they enter after successfully replicating their genetic material.

They can either have DNA or RNA but never both.

<h3>Bacteria</h3>

They are cellular prokaryotes with cell organelles that keeps them functional

They can be obligate intracellular organisms or they can survive outside the cell without any problem depending on the particular species of the bacteria since they have cell organelles that can function.

Bacteria reproduce through a process called binary fission where the cell organelles just double up and the cell pinches into 2 different sections with equal distribution of genetic materials forming 2 different cells.

They can be infected by types of viruses called bacteriophages that use the hosts nucleoid to replicate.

They have a cell membrane and a cell wall which encloses the inner contents of the bacteria and also protects the bacteria from the immune system.

They are treated by antibiotics such as β-lactam antibiotics that destroys their cell wall making it porous and the cell eventually dies.

They do not enter the host for reproduction but rather they kill the host through toxins such as toxin A and toxin B

They do not have a nucleus but have the nucleoid that contains the DNA of the bacterium.

What is the name of the groove that forms in the middle of a dividing plant cell
mrs_skeptik [129]

Plants have cell walls, so cytokinesis cannot go on with a cleavage furrow, but instead, a cell plate  forms across the cell in the location of the metaphase plate.

There is no distinct groove along the cell plate as the cell divides because of the rigid nature of the cell plate or new cell wall.

A plant cell divides differently from an animal cell which forms a clear cleavage furrow because it only has a flexible cell membrane and not a rigid cell wall like plants.

The cell plate in plant cells is formed by membrane bound vesicles which migrate to the center of the cell where the metaphase plate used to be and fuse together to form a cell plate.

Please help me I don’t understand it.
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

1) bay - 0%

  cream - 0%

  buckskin - 100%

2) cream - 25%

    bay - 25%

   buckskin - 50%

3) co-dominance

Explanation:

Ok so a run down on Punnett Squares,  all you have to do is put the parent's genes on the top and right hand side and combine those two genes in the middle as I did in the picture.  Now, co-dominance, this basically means that there is no dominant allele.  For example, imagine a white flower (W) and a red flower (R).  If these two plants were to breed, you would get a pink flower (WR).  This means the red allele and the white allele are both co-dominant.  It is basically a combination of both genes that result in a mixed phenotype of the two genes, aka red and white makes pink.  This is also how you get an AB blood type.

I hope this helps!

Atoms are electrically neutral because they have equal numbers of protons positively charged and electrons negatively charged.
