Answer:

The correct option is C. A virus contains RNA or DNA in a protein coat.

Explanation:

Viruses can be described as tiny particles which are able to incorporate their genetic material into a host. Many viruses can be destructive to the host cells.

The structure of a virus includes DNA or RNA which is enclosed in a structure known as an envelope or capsid. The envelope or capsid is made up of proteins. Some viruses also have a tail.

The capsid of a virus usually remains outside the host cell and it injects its viral genome into the host cell. The DNA or RNA o the virus then incorporates in the host cell.

Hypothesis:

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Objective(s):

In your own words, what was the purpose of this lab?

In this lab report, the purpose is that hamsters carry traits fro parents.

Hypothesis:

In this section, please include the if/then statements you developed during your lab activity. These statements reflect your predicted outcomes for the experiment.

Test One: If I breed a short fur, FF female with a short fur, Ff male, then I will expect to see (all short fur; some short and some long fur; all long fur) offspring.

All short fur

Test Two: If I breed a short fur, Ff female with a short fur, Ff male, then I will expect to see (all short fur; some short and some long fur; all long fur) offspring.

Some short and some long

Test Three: If I breed a long fur, ff female with a long fur, ff male, then I will expect to see (all short fur; some short and some long fur; all long fur) offspring.

All long fur

Procedure:

The procedures are listed in your virtual lab. You do not need to repeat them here. Please be sure to identify the test variable (independent variable) and the outcome variable (dependent variable) for this investigation.

Remember, the test variable is what is changing in this investigation. The outcome variable is what you are measuring in this investigation.

Test variable (independent variable): Outcome variable (dependent variable):

Conclusion:

Your conclusion will include a summary of the lab results and an interpretation of the results. Please write in complete sentences.

1. Which genotype(s) and phenotype for fur length are dominant? FF

2. Which genotype(s) and phenotype for fur length are recessive? ff

3. If you have a hamster with short fur, what possible genotypes could the hamster have? It would probably be Ff or a ff

4. If you have a hamster with long fur, what possible genotypes could the hamster have? It would be Ff or an FF

Consider the following hypothetical population and compute the statistical measures below: #births = 50,000; #deaths = 10,000; #

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

The birth rate refers to an average number of births in one year per thousand individuals in the population at mid-year.

BR = (total birth in an annum / total population in mid year) * 1000

BR = (50000 / 1000000) * 1000 = 50

Death rate refers to an average number of death in an annum per thousand individuals in a population at mid year. Thus,

DR = (total death / total population in mid year) * 1000

DR = (10000 / 1000000) * 1000 = 10

Annual population growth rate or APGR is calculated as:

APGR = (Birth rate - Death rate) / Death rate

APGR = (50 - 10) / 10 = 4.0 %

Doubling time is the whole sum time needed for a population to get double in size. It is calculated as DT = ln (2) / growth rate

70 / 4.0 = 17.5 years

Thus, population will get double in 17.5 years.

Adjusted (true) growth rate is equal to APGR + (NMR / Death rate)

And NMR = [(immigrants -emigrants) / total population] * 1000

NMR = [(5000 - 20000) / 1000000] * 1000 = -15

Thus, Adjusted (True) growth rate = 4.0 + (-15 /10) = -6%

The adjusted (true) doubling time = ln (2) / Adjusted growth rate

= 70 / -6 = -11.66

This negative sign shows that it will never get double in such situation.
