I believe it is because the glass has a smaller coefficient of linear expansion than the water. The glass undergoes thermal expansion and thus when it heats up, it expands and when it cools down it contracts. The inside and the outside of the glass does not reach an equilibrium temperature very quickly since the glass has a low thermal conductivity. The surface of the glass rapidly contracts while the inner surface is expanding which causes the glass to crack.

Transduction (a type of horizontal gene transfer)is the process by which foreign DNA is introduced into a bacteria cell. When viruses infect bacterial cells, their DNA is integrated into a bacterial chromosome and thus harness the replicational, transcriptional, and translation machinery of the bacteria. As a result, bacteria cell makes numerous virions (viral particles).

When viewing a dissected heart, it is easy to visually discern the right and left ventricles by ________. A. finding the papilla
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

Option (B).

Explanation:

Heart is the main pumping organ of the body. The human heart is divided into four chambers that are right atria, right ventricles, left atria and left ventricles.

The left and right ventricles can easily be distinguished on the basis of their thickness. The right ventricle is less thicker than left ventricle. The thickness of right ventricle is 9mm whereas the thickness of left ventricle is around 40mm.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).
