Answer:

The correct answer is option C "The pressure change causes the organ of Corti to vibrate vertically".

Explanation:

The organ of Corti is an important structure for auditory perception that acts as a receptor organ for hearing.  The organ of Corti is located in the mammalian cochlea and it allows for the transduction of auditory signals into nerve impulses according to the vibrations that are received from external sources. If the receiving sounds comes from the stapes pushing against membrane covering the oval window, the pressure change will causes the organ of Corti to vibrate vertically. Stimulus from membrane covering the oval window are sent to the organ of Corti, which responds by vibrating vertically.

Round seeds are dominant over wrinkled seeds in
antoniya [11.8K]

Genotype - RR - 25%, Rr - 50%, rr - 25% (1:2:1)

Phenotype - Round seeds - 75%, Wrinkled seeds - 25% (3:1)

<h3>How explain your answer?</h3>

Let the letter "r" stand for the alleles, where R is round seeds and r is wrinkled seeds. A genotype is an individual's genes represented through alleles. Phenotypes are how the genes express themselves. In other words, genotypes will be written using letters, the alleles, and phenotypes will be the possible outcomes of the alleles.

Both of the parent seeds have the genotypes Rr and the phenotype of round seeds.

If you create punnet square (which had four boxes in total) 1 will have RR, 2 will have Rr, and 1 will have rr. These are the ratios for the genotypes. Each box represents 25%, so the percentages will be 25, 50, and 25. Finally, 3 of these boxes (RR and Rr) will result in round seeds because those are dominant. Only the genotype rr will result in wrinkled phenotype. Therefore, the ratio is 3:1 or 75% to 25%.

Thus, this could be the answer.

What is the most important distinction between the membrane transporters known as channel proteins and those known as carrier pr
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Channel proteins form hydrophilic channels to passively transport substances down the concentration gradient.

Carrier proteins bind to substances to transport them actively against the concentration gradient. They do not form channels.

Explanation:

Channel proteins are the membrane proteins that serve in transport of small polar molecules and/or ions by making a hydrophilic pore across the membrane. These molecules diffusion through the pore and exhibit facilitated diffusion.  

Carrier proteins are the membrane proteins that transport the substances across the membrane by binding to them. They do not form the hydrophilic channels. Carrier proteins serve in the active transport of molecules against the concentration gradient.

How do microscopes differ in magnification and resolution?
Verizon [17]

1.Magnification is the ability of optical instruments, such as a telescope or a microscope, to make an object bigger while resolution is the ability of optical instruments to produce images that are clearer, finer, and sharper.

2.Resolution is the power of an optical instrument to capture and produce more details of an image while magnification is the power of an instrument to create and produce a much larger image of an object.

3.Resolution can be expressed in arcsec or seconds while magnification can be expressed by a whole number and the letter “X.”

4.Although both are dependent upon each other, a high magnification does not always guarantee a high resolution.

5.Magnification allows us to see small objects, especially those that are not visible to the naked eye, while resolution allows us to see these objects more clearly and with more details.
