Answer:

The correct answer will be- Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

Explanation:

The living organisms are derived from the basic matter of life called atoms which together form molecules. These molecules are comprised of elements like carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, sulfur, nitrogen and many others.

The most abundant elements in the organism are hydrogen, oxygen and  Carbon as they produce almost all major biomolecules of the living organism.

Thus, Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen is the correct answer.

How are the cells in multicellular organisms different from those in single-celled organisms?
Mrac [35]

Answer: Option D) Cells in multicellular organisms are specialized to perform certain functions.

Explanation:

Multicellular organisms include humans, reptiles, birds etc. While unicellular organisms include amoeba, paramecium etc

From the examples given, the cells of multicellular organisms are specialized in function in that:

- cells that perform similar functions are put together as tissues, organs or system e.g digestive system consists of the similar cells that help to break down food into pieces

On the other hand, unicellular organisms possess just one cell that do all the functions.

Thus, the difference between both is that cells in multicellular organisms are specialized to perform certain functions.

Which of the following is not a reason for creating hybrid plants?
Alja [10]
Hey there!

Based on your options above, your answer seems to be (<span>increase resistance to disease). 

This was never a reason to actually increase the disease of creating a Hybrid. It clearly makes no sense. This would include that your answer would be (c).

Hope this helps.

A new microorganism is isolated from a lake and is placed into a solution of KCl. The voltage difference across its membrane is
Leona [35]

Answer: \Delta U= 1.922x10⁻²⁰ Joules

Explanation: <u>Electric</u> <u>Potential</u> <u>Energy</u> (U) is the energy a charged object has due to its location in an electric field and it will only exist with the object is charged.

<u>Voltage</u> or <u>Electric</u> <u>Potential</u> <u>Difference</u> (V) is external work done to move a charge from one point to another in a electric field.

These terms have a relationship, which is given by:

\Delta U=q\Delta V

where

q is the charge

Proton is positive and has a charge of 1.6x10⁻¹⁹C.

Unit for potential energy is Joule (J). The relation between mV and J is

1mV = 10⁻³J

Then:

V = 120x10⁻³

V = 0.12

So, for a proton to move from the negative side of a membrane to the positive:

\Delta U=q\Delta V

\Delta U=1.6.10^{-19}.0.12

\Delta U = 1.922 x 10⁻²⁰

Energy necessary to transport a proton from negative side of the membrane to the positive is 1.922 x 10⁻²⁰J.

A male carrier of a recessive somatic mutation marries a female without this mutation. What is the probability that their child
Umnica [9.8K]

The correct answer is C. 50 %

A male is a carrier of a recessive somatic mutation it means the mutation can be expressed under homozygous condition, when both the alleles with somatic mutation. Thus, in case of a male carrier of a recessive somatic mutation marries to a normal female will produce 50 % their offspring with recessive somatic mutation so, they will be carrier and 50 % offspring are without this mutation.
