Answer:
Explanation:
Osmosis is the process in which the molecules of a solvent move from a region of low concentration to a region of higher concentration through a semi-permeable barrier.
While eating the chips, <u>the salt content from the chips makes the surrounding solution of the cells to have an increase in salt concentration causing an hypertonic solution</u>. An hypertonic solution is a solution that has more solute (salt) than the (solute in a) cell. <u>This increase in salt concentration around the cells causes the cells to release water to neutralize the high salt concentration in the solution around the cell (in order to maintain homeostasis)</u> which causes dehydration in the individual and hence making the individual to be thirsty. <u>The body attempts to maintain balance by passing this excess salt out of the body in the form of urine hence the reason for the dark colour in the urine </u>(because if the body doesn't rid itself of the high salt concentration, the cells could shrink and die as a result).
Semipermeable means the cell membrane can pick and choose what goes out of it and into it. At least, that's what I believe it is.
Answer:
Frequency of dominant allele is 0.9029
Explanation:
Total number of organisms = 12,845
Number of organisms representing dominant trait = 11,596. These organisms might have heterozygotes with one dominant allele and one recessive allele.
Hence, Number of organisms with recessive alleles = 12845 – 11596 = 1249
Frequency of recessive allele (q) = 1249/12845 = 0.0971
Frequency of dominant allele (p) = 1- q = 1- 0.0971 = 0.9029
Answer:
Groups 4 to 7 are most likely to be undergoing the mitotic phase of the cell cycle.
Explanation:
Since the four proteins used p16, p18, p21, and p27 are inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinases (CDK), their absence indicates that the cell is undergoing mitosis - the cell cycle is regulated by CDKs. In the absence of these inhibitors, the cell cycle moves on forward. Because the bar for DNA replication is longer in the case for groups 4 to 7, it is indicative of the fact that these cells have gone through the mitotic phase.
Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
The first stage of cellular respiration is most commonly referred to as glycolysis!
