A stimulus is the change in an organism's surroundings that causes it to react (quickly).

Some examples of stimulus are:
<em />When you touch a boiling pot, <em>you pull your hand quickly</em>.
When an object is falling or thrown towards you, <em>you close your eyes</em> and sometimes <em>you move a side</em>.

What makes a variation different from an adaptation? Use an example to explain.
Talja [164]

Answer:

A variation is different to an adaptation as a variation is a difference or variety inside a species, for example a different breed of dog such as a spaniel is a variety of the dog species, whereas an adaptation is a genetic mutation that has developed in order to help an animal survive, such as giraffes having a long neck. Adaptations continue throughout the species due to natural selection.

The brilliant research scientist, Professor "Iron-Mike" Scrawll is studying a new pore-forming toxin from the pathogenic bacteri
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

The correct option is C - Professor Scrawll applied 100 nM BurD to the cells for 24 hours, while Dr. Bogey applied 1 nM BurD to the cells for 12 hours.

Explanation:

The correct option is C - Professor Scrawll applied 100 nM BurD to the cells for 24 hours, while Dr. Bogey applied 1 nM BurD to the cells for 12 hours.

As the exotoxin, BurD is very stable and lyse the ankle cells very quickly, more concentration and more time of action should only lyse the cells. Perhaps Dr.Bogey's ankle cells were not lysed because the concentration she used was only 1nM compared to the 100nM concentration used by Dr. Scrawll, and the time period of incubation was only 12 hours compared to the 24 hours used by Dr. Scrawll.

Considering the other explanations given in the remaining options, the concentration and time of incubation used by Dr. Bogey are more than that used by Dr. Scrawll which should only have possibly lysed the cells. Moreover, contamination with bleach also should have only lysed the cells.
