Cathy hypothesized that corn would not grow in mud. To test this hypothesis, she took corn kernels and placed 5 in mud, 3 in soi

l, and 2 in water. To her surprise, the kernels in the mud grew faster than the kernels in the soil. What error might have caused these unexpected results?

The seeds she planted in the mud grew quicker because the mud is holding nutrition for the corn. The soil is a good guess to make, but the mud is more dense and moist. The water wouldn't have had more nutrients than the mud, just because the mud holds breakdown matter and other things from other plants.

Which statement is FALSE? A. Phototropism and geotropism are adaptations of plants that allow for survival. B. Tropism is the gr
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

A. Phototropism and geotropism are adaptations of plants that allow for survival.

Explanation:

Ideally, TROPISM is the growth response of plants to their environment due to external stimuli as rightly stated in this question. However, based on what stimulus the plant is responding to, there are different types of stimulus.

Phototropism (photo-light) is the response of an organism to a light source while Geotropism (geo- gravity) is the response of an organism to gravity. Hence, based on this question, a plant's response to moonlight is phototropism while it's response to gravity is geotropism.

Also, tropism can either be positive or negative depending on whether the response is towards the stimulus (positive) or away from the stimulus (negative). Therefore, the FALSE statement is "Phototropism and geotropism are adaptations of plants that allow for survival"

Describe how FISH can be used to determine which cells within a microbial community are actively degrading toluene. Assume the g
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

First, you need to retrieve the FASTA sequences of the already sequenced genes. After that, you should make a sequence alignment on a software like CLUSTALW (https://www.ebi.ac.uk/Tools/msa/clustalw2/) to seek for the conserved regions of the gene. Based on this regions, you will design your FISH probe, which for bacteria can start in 33 bp (Ming Tan <em>et al.</em>, 2019), but a 200 bp probe is a very suitable size. There are several companies that fabricates this custom probes, and sell all the reagents to perform the experiments. Having this, you will perform your FISH experiment to see which cells are actively degrading Toluene.
