Answer:

The correct answer would be - electronic thermometer was not calibrated correctly

Explanation:

Every electronic equipment or instrument like an electronic thermometer, that measures something needs to be calibrated with a standard measurement or reference value to a new measuring device to establish a relationship.

Liquid thermometer measures based on the liquid's actual physical properties, that are present inside it so, calibration is not required.

Thus, the electronic thermometer was not calibrated correctly.

What is the food you eat used for
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

This energy comes from the food we eat. Our bodies digest the food we eat by mixing it with fluids (acids and enzymes) in the stomach. When the stomach digests food, the carbohydrate (sugars and starches) in the food breaks down into another type of sugar, called glucose.

Help me please please
natita [175]

Answer:

1) A

2) Could be A, B,  or D

Explanation:

1)   Prokaryote is a single celled organism that has no distinct nucleus, membrane  - bound organelles, and specialized organelles (such as the mitochondria).

This definition would only match A) a bacteria cell because all the other cells are called Eukaryotas (which are more complex and have membrane - bound organelles).

2) The answer could be A because Prokaryotic cells lack membrane bound organelles

The answer could be B because the diagram has labeled the cell membrane as "plasma membrane"

The answer could NOT be C because Prokaryotic cells do not have nucleus's, but have free floating DNA.

The answer could be D because it is the only image that has a flagellum (which helps the cell move)

I am sorry I couldn't answer this question completely, but I think that this question has flaws.

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions!

A DNA molecule produced by combining DNA from different sources is known as
Digiron [165]

Answer:

A DNA molecule produced by combining DNA from different sources is known as recombinant DNA.​

Explanation:

Recombinant DNA (rDNA) can be obtained by coupling DNA fragments from different sources, a process that is performed at the restriction site level and uses enzymes.  

Once rDNA has been designed —cutting out fragments of DNA that are then reassembled— it must be brought to a specific location in the cells, to be copied and expressed, using means of transport called vectors.

<u>DNA recombination</u> is performed in biotechnology laboratories specialized in the manipulation of genetic material.

The other options are not correct because:

  • <u><em>Mutant or mutated DNA</em></u><em> is a DNA molecule with an alteration of its nitrogenous base sequence </em>
  • <u><em>Hybrid DNA</em></u><em> is a variant of recombiant DNA, in which only two DNA molecules from different sources are used. </em>
  • <u><em>Polyploid</em></u><em> refers to cells containing the genome of different species.</em>

What prevents blood movement from left ventricle to left atrium​
irina1246 [14]

The Mitral valve which is also known as left atrioventricular prevents blood movement from left ventricle to left atrium.

Explanation:

  • Human heart is four chambered.
  • Two of these are receiving chambers known as atria and the other two are distributing chamber known as Ventricles.
  • Atria are superior chambers and ventricles are inferior chambers.
  • The heart has four valves broadly grouped as Atrioventricular valves and Semi lunar valves.
  • Atrioventricular valves allows flow of blood from atria to ventricle. These are tricuspid valve and bicuspid valve.
  • Semi-lunar valves allow blood to pass out of the heart. These include the pulmonary and aortic valves.
  • The pulmonary valve allows blood to flow from right ventricle  to the heart while aortic valve allows blood to flow from left ventricle to the Aorta.
  • The Tricuspid valve located between the right atrium and right ventricle allows blood to flow from right atrium to the right ventricle.
  • The Bicuspid valve ( Mitral valve)  located between the left atrium and left ventricle allows the blood flow from left atria to left ventricle.
  • Valves maintain the unidirectional flow of blood and thus prevent its back flow.
