How is a frog disected?

Biology
1 answer:
Stella [2.4K]3 years ago

<span>Lay the frog on its back, spread out its limbs, and pin them to the tray. Use forceps to lift the skin between the hind legs and make a small incision with a scalpel. Continue the cut up the center of the frog's body with scissors, being careful to cut through the skin only. Use forceps to hold the skin away from the muscle while you cut, if necessary. Make horizontal incisions just above the legs and just below the arms, then fold the resulting flaps back and pin them. (You may need to use a scalpel to help separate the skin from the muscle underneath as you fold it back.)Repeat the incisions as before, this time cutting through the muscle layer to a point just below the arms. Lift the muscle with the forceps to prevent cutting the organs underneath.When you reach the area just below the arms, turn your scissors and make horizontal cuts through the hard sternum. Repeat the horizontal cuts just above the arms, and then remove the bony strips entirely. Pin the remaining muscle flaps back, just as with the skin.<span>Look into the body cavity. The yellow finger-like projections on the sides are the fat bodies. It may be necessary to remove some of these in order to see the organs clearly. Likewise, a female specimen may have well-developed eggs filling the body cavity and obscuring the organs. Remove them as necessary.</span></span>

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Gastrovascular Cavity

Explanation:

Hydra is commonly found in freshwater ponds and ditches as solitary organisms, in underside of aquatic leaves and lily pads in cool,clean freshwater pools and streams. It has a *Cylindrical body shape*.

Hydra possesses an internal body cavity, the *Gastrovascular cavity *,lined by gastrodermis and has a single opening,the mouth,which serves as an anus.

The Gastrovascular cavity of Hydra is a site for *digestion and nutrient distribution*,and also serves as anus.

The value of n, the Hill coefficient, for hemoglobin is about _________ as great as the value for myoglobin.
ludmilkaskok [199]

The value of n, the Hill coefficient, for hemoglobin is about 2 to 3 times as great as the value for myoglobin.

Hill Equation

The two closely related equations that help to explain the binding of macromolecules to ligands are called the Hill equation. It helps to quantify the interaction between various ligand binding sites.

Hill coefficient

It is used to describe the cooperativity of ligand binding. It can be positive and negative depending on the value of the Hill coefficient. If the value of the Hill coefficient is more than one then it exhibits positively cooperative binding and if it is less than one then it exhibits negatively cooperative binding. Then there is the noncooperative binding where the Hill coefficient value is one. As for the hemoglobin and myoglobin, the values are,

  • Hill coefficient of hemoglobin is 2.7 - 3.
  • Hill coefficient of myoglobin is 1.0.

Thus hemoglobin is positively cooperative and myoglobin exhibits noncooperative binding.

Carbon chains are principal features of both carbohydrates and lipids.what is the primary difference between these two types of
solong [7]
While both carbohydrates and lipids are made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen there are several differences:

1. Carbohydrates are chains of 2 or more carbon atoms.  These can be very lengthy (like long cellulose chains of glucose units). They have many polar OH groups (e.g. glucose - C6H6O6). Most carbohydrates are hydrophilic and are soluble in water because of their polar OH groups. They are not necessarily sugars nor are they necessarily sweet. They are also important components of DNA, RNA and ATP.

2. Lipids are more diverse in their chemistry. They generally have a polar region at one end (this end attracts water) and a large non polar hydrocarbon region that repels water. Lipids don't dissolve in water and instead clump together with their hydrocarbon regions on the interior. Lipids include oils, fatty acids, waxes, steroids and hormones.

agasfer [191]

Answer:

correct option is A.

Succession is the process by which the structure of a particular community evolves over a specific period of time. There are two types of succession, primary and secondary succession. Primary succession is a type of succession that occurs in a place which is incapable of sustaining the growth of plants, that is, it usually occur on barren lands. All the options given above are examples of places for primary succession with the exception of option A.
