Answer:

Fungal spores are the tiny dispersal structures of fungi formed in large numbers on a special hyphae which form an important biological component of the air.

They help in the dispersal of the species in the atmosphere of forest areas, urban places, inside buildings and occupational settings.

Their function is similar to the role of pollen in plants in a way that they help in dispersal of fungi in environment because of their properties like small structures, light in weight and can be easily carried and spread by wind, water droplets and flies.

Fungal spores germinate in favorable conditions like presence of moisture and food where upon termination produce hyphae which gros out and forms colony.

salantis [7]

Answer:

Instead of arginine codon, proline condon would be coded.

Explanation:

GCA encodes codes for glycine while on the other hand codon to GGU, GGC, or GGG encodes for glycine.

This substitution will lead to generation of complementary code “Proline” in the complementary mRNA or DNA strand.  

The codon CCT, CCC, CCA, CCG encodes for proline. If this mutation would not have occurred then Arginine would have been encoded in the complementary codon  with base structure of CGT, CGC, CGA, CGG

If cells are placed in a hypertonic solution containing a solute to which the membrane is impermeable, what could happen?
finlep [7]

Answer: A

 The cells would lose water and shrink. In a hypertonic solution, the concentration of solute is higher than water in a cell. With this, there is a net movement of water from inside to outside initiating water to lose from the cytoplasm and vacuole causing the cell to shrink due to osmosis and achieve equilibrium.

This process is applied in food preservation where microbial cells will be dehydrated in a hypertonic environment, making them malfunction and preventing them to cause food spoilage.

Cortisol is a stress hormone secreted by the adrenal glands by the triggering of adenocorticotropic hormone of the pituitary gland.

Stressors due to daily life activities and other health problems leads to cortisol awakening response and increases the level of cortisol in the blood stream in order to cope up with the increased stress.
