Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Both water and glucose contain hydrogen and oxygen. However, glucose has carbon in addition to the two elements. A molecule of glucose has 6 carbon, 12 hydrogen, and 6 oxygen atoms while a molecule of water has just 2 atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen.
Both glucose and water are polar molecules.
Water is liquid at room temperature while glucose is a solid at room temperature.
In terms of structures, the overall structure of water is bent while that of glucose may be alpha or beta 6 carbon ring structure.

Answer:
<u><em>C. DNA from the S bacteria is necessary for bacterial transformation to occur.</em></u>
Explanation:
These series of experiments determined that DNA is the genetic material which gives rise to a particular type of cell. As we can see, the S bacteria with degraded proteins were able to grow when the proteins and RNA were degraded. But they were not able to grow when their DNA was degraded. This experiment proved that proteins or RNA are not the genetic material, rather DNA is the material related to inheritance.
Answer:
By designing an experiment where the temperature on the thermometer is measured after a chosen (same) time interval when the thermometer is wrapped with the different materials and placed in the freezer
Explanation:
Experimental design
Materials given: freezer, a thermometer, samples of materials
setup:
1. The freezer is put on and made to remain at a particular temperature, mimicking the winter season.
2. Next, different materials for the coat design with equal dimensions are used to rap the thermometer whose initial temperature has been recorded in the same pattern and the thermometer is placed in the freezer and left for a certain time, which is made constant for the different materials.
3. after the time, the final temperature on the thermometer is recorded.
Result interpretation
The temperature is expected to drop after the time in the freezer, but the material with the smaller change (drop) in temperature indicates that it traps more heat hence is the best material for designing a winter coat
independent variables: type of material used
dependent variables: temperature on the thermometer
control variables: time, dimensions of materials, temperature of freezer, pattern of wrapping.
Answer :C) to prevent loss of ions to the surrounding water
Explanation :Basically,by closing the lamellae it prevents the entry of water by OSMOSIS , into high solute(ions) potential plasma .if the lamellae were not shut, osmosis drives water in, the fish produced hypotonic urine with resultant loss of ions,
Therefore with the closure of the lamellae, it countered continuous plasma ion loss, and ensure re-establishment of the water-ion balance in cells of muscle tissues and blood. Therefore, the net loss of plasma ions was cut down, and stability of the ion concentration ensured,as a result of a drop in the passive ion efflux to the surrounding aquatic medium.

The crucian carp (Carassius carassius) is a Northern European freshwater fish often inhabiting ponds that become hypoxic (have reduced oxygen levels) and even anoxic (have no oxygen) when the surface freezes during the winter. Surprisingly, when oxygen levels are normal, these fish lack the lamellae that provide a large surface area for gas exchange between water and blood: their gills are smooth. Yet when the level of oxygen in the water falls, the gill morphology undergoes a change: packing cells stop dividing and programmed cell death is induced, exposing gill lamellae that were buried in other tissue. With lamellae exposed, the gills have increased surface area for gas exchange. These changes in gill lamellar profile are reversible: investigators observed that the gills return to their normal structure within seven days after returning the fish to well-oxygenated water.
