Yes-or-no questions about easily observable characteristics.
REY [17]3 years ago
5 0

The right option is; D.yes-or-no questions about easily observable characteristics.

A dichotomous key is a tool designed by scientists to help its users to identify a particular type of object and organisms based on physical characteristics. A dichotomous key is divided into two sections and it usually contains specific questions with two choices (yes or no) in each step. When a question is answered, the key guides the user to the next question to ask until the user is able to correctly identify the name of the unknown organism.

blsea [12.9K]

Answer: The cell membrane is a bilayer of lipids composed mainly of lipids and proteins.

Explanation: A cell is the functional unit of life. A cell is usually surrounded by the cell membrane. A cell is composed of different organelles such as the nucleus, mitochondria, ribosome, each also surrounded by a membrane and these organelles are suspended in the fluidy part of the cell know as the cytoplasm.

A cell membrane is a thin lining that surrounds the cell and encloses the cytoplasm. It is made up of two layers of lipids in which proteins are embedded. Cell membranes allow the selective passage of materials into and out of the cell.

One group of students did an experiment to study the movement of ocean water. The steps of the experiment are listed below.
Delvig [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

The lamp and the ice bag were at the same place.  

Sounds like the experiment was intended to show on a small scale ocean currents from the poles to the equator and back to the poles. The bag of ice would simulate the cold at the poles while the lamp would simulate the heat provided by the sun near the equator. With that in mind, let's look at the possible flaws and see what is likely.  

Not enough ink was added.

 * If you can see the ink, then there's enough ink. So this isn't the correct choice.  

Not enough water was taken.

 * Possibility there wasn't enough volume of water to setup a current, but not too likely since the baking dish was filled. So let's look further. 

 The dish was too small for the experiment.

 * Same as above. It might be this, but there's something more likely. 

 The lamp and the ice bag were at the same place.

 * This sounds like a winner. In the real world, the poles are cold and the equator gets more sunlight. So there's a temperature gradient. In the described setup, both the heat sink (the bag of ice) and the heat source (the lamp) were at the same location.
