Chemical analysis of the oxygen isotopes in foraminifera shells allow scientists to create a climate record like the one shown h

ere. The chemical composition of shells depends on the temperature of the surrounding water and the presence or absence of large polar ice sheets. Fossil data like this indicates that A) only simple organisms on Earth are subject to change over time. B) climatic changes can definitely influence changes in life forms. C) change in life forms is more likely to change in marine habitats. D) climatic change does not necessarily result in change in life forms.

Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

The oxygen isotope ratios are often used from water that are stored in the glaciers and the oxygen that are absorbed in the shells of the marine flora and fauna. This ratio is used to determine the past climate and rainfall.

The data obtained by calculating this ratios demarcates that the changes in the climatic condition definitely affects the changes in the life forms. If organisms existing in a warm climate are suddenly allowed to experience a colder type of climate, then these organisms have to adapt to that environment for their survival. Due to this adaptation, the organisms undergo certain changes in them, thereby undergoing the process of evolution.  

Thus, changes in the life form occurs due to the changing environmental and climatic conditions.

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).

solong [7]

Answer:

d. nitrogen-containing base .

Explanation:

A nucleotide comprises a phosphate group, a pentose sugar and a nitrogenous base (nitrogen-containing base).

A nitrogenous base is a type of aromatic heterocyclic organic compound which essentially has nitrogen in it. The base can be a purine or pyrimidine. Purine nitrogenous bases are adenine (A) and guanine (G) while pyrimidine nitrogenous bases are cytosine (C), thiamine (T) and uracil (U).

Till the time a base is not attached to covalently linked phosphate group and a pentose sugar, it is known as nucleoside. But as soon as we attach any nitrogenous base to the nucleoside, a nucleotide is formed. So it means a nucleotide is nucleoside + nitrogenous base.

Examples are as under:

A nucleotide which has adenine as nitrogenous base is known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP) while a nucleotide which has guanine as nitrogenous base is known as Guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP).

zysi [14]

The nurse found a transitory short and long term memory loss and confusion.  Electroconvulsive therapy is a kind of a procedure that done under general anesthesia,  this procedure can changes the brain chemistry by giving the patient a small electric current that will pass through the brain intentionally making a small fast seizure. That’s why there are some side effects is memory loss, some memory problem improve after the treatment ends.

The fluid-mosaic model of membrane structure includes the following: A Option A: a lipid bilayer. B Option B: membrane proteins.
Mila [183]

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

In 1972, the fluid mosaic model was proposed by S. J. Singer and G. L. Nicolson to describe the structure of the plasma membrane found I living cells. The model describes the plasma membrane to possess components including phospholipid, proteins and cholesterol.

The phospholipid is arranged in two layers comprising of glycerol, two fatty acids and a phosphate group. The fatty acids which forms the tail are hydrophobic (water-fearing) while the phosphate group is water-loving (hydrophobic) giving the plasma membrane an AMPHIPATHIC nature. The other component as proposed by the model are membrane proteins and cholesterol, all responsible for the fluidity of the membrane.

What happens when increasing the volume of a cell?
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

As a cell grows bigger, its internal volume enlarges and the cell membrane expands. Unfortunately, the volume increases more rapidly than does the surface area, and so the relative amount of surface area available to pass materials to a unit volume of the cell steadily decreases.
