Answer:
In order to find average speed during each interval, we need to divide the distance during those intervals with the period of time. So, for the first interval (day 0 to day 2) hawksbill started from 0 and reached 10 kilometers by the end of the second day. That means that it crossed 10 kilometers in 2 days, so the average speed is 10/2 which is 5 km/day. Similarly, we can calculate speed for other intervals:
• day 2 - day 3: it went from 10 to 12 km in one day, which means it crossed 2 km in one day, so the average speed is 2/1 = 2 km/day
• day 3 - day 4: at the end of the third day it reached 12 km and at the end of the day 4 it remained at 12 km. That means the hawksbill wasn't moving in that interval so the speed was 0
• day 4 - day 5: it went from 12 km to 18 km, which means it crossed 18-12=6 km in one day, so the average speed is 6/1=6 km/day
• day 5 - day 6: it went from 18 to 24 km, which means it crossed 24-18=6 km in one day, so the speed was 6/1=6 km/day
So, to summarize, during the first interval turtle was moving with average speed of 5 km/day, then 2 km/day, in the third interval it wasn't moving and in the last two intervals, it moved in average speed of 6 km/day.
Answer:
B. Shortens
Explanation:
Myofibrils are components of the animal skeletal muscles that are made up of sacromeres. They perform the muscular contraction and relaxation via the sliding filament model.
To produce motion, A cross-bridge forms between actin and the myosin heads triggering shortening of the sacromere. This shortening of the sacromere results in the contraction of the muscle fibers, which the net effect can be seen to be a shortening of the fibers
Answer:
47 chromosomes
Explanation:
Meiosis is a kind of division that reduces the chromosome number of the daughter cells by half i.e. 2n - n. It occurs only in reproductive cells to produce sex cells or gametes. In humans, meiosis occurs to produce gametes (egg and sperm) that have 23 haploid chromosomes.
N.B: Somatic human cells have 46 chromosomes
According to this question, a meiotic error occurred during gamete formation, resulting in an egg that has 24 chromosomes. If that egg is fertilized by a normal sperm i.e. sperm with 23 chromosomes. A zygote that posseses (23 + 24) = 47 chromosomes will be produced.
Answer:
The bacterium Vibrio cholerae is the primary cause of cholera disease that mainly infects the small intestine and primarily leads to the dehydration of the body.
Explanation:
The genetic analysis reveals that the aforementioned causative bacteria surpass the acidic conditions of the stomach and eventually reaches the intestinal wall and attaches to it. This is followed by the production of toxic protein by the bacterium. This protein is taken inside the cell via receptor mediated endocytosis followed by its binding to the host protein Arf6. This binding leads to the production of cAMP that results in the dehydration process. This mechanism leads to excessive accumulation of chloride ion in the intestine preventing the entry of sodium ion.
These two ions are associated with the creation of water-salt environment in the intestine that leads to tremendous diarrhea via the process of osmosis.
Hence, we can say that cholera bacterium affects the individuals at the cellular level and osmosis plays a vital role in the process.
