The lysosome functions in a cell like the _______ does in our bodies.

Troyanec [42]3 years ago

Lysosomes remove waste at a cellular level.
They contain digestive enzymes, so they're like the digestive system.
The stomach digests food, so lysosomes could be considered like the stomach.
But then again, so do the intestines, small and large.
Since the stomach doesn't also work to remove waste though, I'd say the answer is probably large intestine, which finishes the digestive process and removes waste material.

Jonas Salk

Explanation:

  • The vaccine that is used for the prevention of polio caused due to the infection caused by the poliovirus is known as polio vaccines. 
  • The first successful polio vaccine was developed by Jonas Salk in the year 1952 and the success of the field trials was announced in the year 1955. 
  • This vaccine became famous as the Salk polio vaccine which is 60-70% effective against PV1 and 90% against PV2 and PV3. 
  • This vaccine was an inactivated vaccine.

Scientists can identify the gene mutated in a bacterial auxotroph by transforming the cells with a genomic library in which frag
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer: false

Explanation: this can only be true if the genes in the genomic library fragments have been identified and if the mutation is an SNP and not an inversion or deletion or insertion, whether they were cloned into plasmids or not.

Why does it take so long for plants to grow
ale4655 [162]
Because plants go through a cycle(the cycle is seed, seedling, plant, flower and tree.) and it takes time for the plant food, water, and nutrients to go though the plant.

In an important experiment, a radioactively labeled bacteriophage was allowed to infect bacteria. In a first trial, the phage co
aliya0001 [1]

Answer: C) the genes of this phage were made of DNA.

Explanation: the experiment described above wherein a radioactively labeled bacteriophage was allowed to infect bacteria ultimately led to the conclusion that the genes of the bacteriophage under study were made of DNA (a biopolymer of deoxyribonucleic acid, which is a type of nucleic acid composed of four different chemical groups, called bases: adenine, guanine, cytosine and thymine). Simply put, the experiment shows that the genetic material of the phage is DNA.

If a DNA sequence is A-T-G-A-C, write the sequence of base pairs that would pair with it.
denis23 [38]

Answer:

T-A-C-T-G

Explanation:

Deoxyribonucleic acid, widely known as DNA, is the genetic material in living cells. It is a double-stranded molecule, with each strand arising from the pair of nucleotide monomers that forms its structure. In the DNA, four nucleotides exist namely: Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Cytosine (C), and Guanine (G).

These four bases occur in different combinations to form a sequence that makes up each strand of the DNA. However, each nucleotide pairs with one another using the COMPLEMENTARY BASE PAIRING RULE, which states that Adenine will always hydrogen bond with Thymine, while Guanine will always hydrogen bond with Cytosine i.e. A-T, G-C.

Based on the above, a DNA strand with sequence: A-T-G-A-C will pair with another DNA strand with sequence: T-A-C-T-G.
