Katena32 [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Dead plant matter

Explanation:

Saprotrophs feed by a process known as absorptive nutrition, in which the nutritional substrate (e.g., dead organism or other nonliving organic matter) is directly digested by a variety of enzymes that are excreted by the saprotroph.

Bile, a substance produced in the _____, is important in the breakdown and absorbtion of ______
Sedbober [7]
The answers are LIVER and LIPIDS.

Bile is produced in liver. They're stored in Gall bladder and is released when needed. Their main function is to emulsify lipids into smaller oil droplets. This is a physical digestion. This process can increase the surface area of the lipids so that it can be chemically digested by enzyme lipase later easier. The larger the surface area gets, the more enzyme can digest them at the same time.

which piece of DNA would have the highest tm one with a cytosine plus guanine comment at t 30% or a cystonie plus guane content
erik [133]

Answer:

50% G+C will have a higher Tm

Explanation:

The Temperature of Melting (Tm) refers to the temperature at which 50% of double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) is changed to single-standard DNA (ssDNA). In the double helix of DNA, Adenine bases always pair with Thymine bases through two hydrogen bonds, whereas Guanine bases always pair with Cytosine bases through three hydrogen bonds. In consequence, a DNA molecule containing a higher GC content is more stable than another DNA molecule containing a lower GC content. The Tm can be calculated as follows = 2 °C(A + T) + 4 °C(G + C) = °C Tm (this equation is useful for oligonucleotides of 14 to 20 base-length).

Devise an experiment to test the hypothesis that bright orange coloration in butterflies acts as a "warning" to potential
Murrr4er [49]

Answer and Explanation:

As I don't have access to live butterflies, the control group would be clay models that do not exhibit warning coloration, e.g. beige / white / brown. In contrast, the experimental group would be the clay models that exhibir a strong warning coloration such as color orange / red.

After preparing the clay 'prey', I would locate them in specific places outside where birds are able to detect them. Moreover, I would use a webcam to monitor the recurrence of birds in the area.

1st experiment: Test whether birds approach the prey that exhibits both warning coloration (experimental group) and dull coloration (control group). Then, record the minutes they spent wandering near the prey.

2nd experiment: Test wheter birds feed on the prey that exhibits both warning coloration (experimental group) and dull coloration (control group). Record time.

Carry out statistical analyses.

Present results and discuss.
