Answer:
Option (2).
Explanation:
Ames test is used to identify the mutageneicity of the compound. The bacteria are treated with chemicals in the nutritive environment to determine whether the substance can acts as a mutagen or not.
The bacteria that can restore the biosyntheic activity in the environment can be considered as mutagen. The mutant bacteria can be easily identified in the Ames test.
Thus, the correct answer is option (2).
Answer:
The correct option is A. The cell is sitting in a hypertonic solution.
Explanation:
A hypertonic solution is a solution in which there are more number of solutes present in the solution than inside the cell. The solutes then tend to pass into the cell through diffusion from the solution.
As it can be seen in the diagram, the concentration of salt is more in the solution i.e 40%. Hence, the salt from the solution enters into the cell by diffusion and has a concentration of 10% inside the cell which shows the cell to be placed in a hypertonic environment.
They do, but very slowly. Mostly when growing or wind is hitting it.
4:
Independent Variable: Photosynthesis
Dependent Variable: Starch
Starch is a product of photosynthesis. Without photosynthesis, starch cannot form. Therefore starch is dependent on photosynthesis.
5:
Independent Variable: Temperature
Dependent Variable: Animal Metabolism
Animal metabolism will only be affected if the temperature of the room changes. Therefore animal metabolism is dependent on temperature.
9:
Independent Variable: Rainfall
Dependent Variable: Thickness of growth rings
The thickness of the tree's growth rings are determined by the amount of rainfall. Therefore the thickness of growth rings are dependent on rainfall.
Planting the same crop in the same place each year zaps nutrients from the earth and leaves soil weak and unable to support healthy plant growth. Because soil structure and quality is so poor, farmers are forced to use chemical fertilizers to encourage plant growth and fruit production.
