DNA- Deoxyribonucleic Acid is a molecule composed of two chains or double strands that coil around each other forming a double helix to carry the genetic information for the development of an organism.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • DNA contains the information that instructs a living organism to develop, grow, survive and reproduce.
  • The information instructed is found inside every cell and is passed down from parents to their children.
  • DNA is made of nucleotide molecules which in turn contains a phosphate group, a sugar group, and a nitrogen base.
  • Deoxyribose in DNA is another form modified from ribose sugar.

A student designs an experiment to test substances X, Y, and Z, to determine which one is a catalyst for the reaction: A + B ® C
guapka [62]
The effect of a catalyst is to increase the speed of the reaction, this is the speed at which reactants, A and B, are consumed, ant the product, C, is produced.


Given that when C is produced the solution bubbles, the bubbles are an indication of progression of the reaction.


The greater the speed of reaction, the earlier the reaction will end and the earlier the bubbles will stop.   


So the student can identify the catalyst because the bubbles will stop first.


Answer: <span>The test tube that stops bubbling first contains the catalyst.</span>

fiasKO [112]

<u>Answer</u>: option B they have a random gene mutation that affects their fur colour.

<u>Explanation</u> :-

  • <em>Variation</em> is the phenomena which occurs in all populations.
  • These variations result in slight differences in the phenotypes of individuals .
  • These variations only arise due to <em>random mutations </em>that arise in the individuals’ genome and then can be inherited by their offspring.
  • There is always a probability of one particular trait to make the individuals survive better in the environment as compared to other trait.
  • The individuals having the trait that helps them to survive better in the environment tend to survive more and leave more progeny. This is termed as <em>survival of the fittest</em>.
  • Thus, according to the question it can be inferred that the dark fur colour arose due to a <em>random mutation </em>since it is the only source of variation. Since, in the given environmental conditions the mice having the dark fur colour were less susceptible to the predators they are better fitted to survive.
  • The dark brown fur coat mice, survive better, leave more progeny and hence, increase their population with time. However, the orginal source of origin of this trait was a random mutation. Had this mutation not occured, the dark coloured fur mice would not have been there.

So, a <em>random gene mutation affecting the fur colour made the dark coloured mice first appear in the population.</em>

Systematic separation of the circulation of the blood. The right side of the heart receives oxygen-poor blood from your body and pumps it to the lungs. The lungs oxygenate the blood which returns to the heart and is pumped to the rest of the body by the left side of the heart. After which the blood returns to the right side, completing the cycle of circulation.

I need help please I don’t understand this
aleksley [76]

Answer:

2. It is converted into heat and energy.

Explanation:

So every time an animal eats grass, or another animal it receives 10% of the energy that the previous animal/plant had. If a rabbit ate a carrot, 10 percent of the energy the carrot had in it, will go into the rabbit. the question is asking where the 90% energy from the eaten carrot went.

Answer Explanation:

Most of the energy that isn't stored in the animal/plant is lost as heat or is used up by the body as it digests the animal/plant that was eaten. This is because the animals who consume any of the plants/animals receiving the 10% energy take energy to eat the plant/animal. this takes up the other 90%

I hope this helps :))
