Answer:

c. physiological

Explanation:

Carnivores to obtain and eat meat, depend on certain physiological characteristics, such as their teeth, claws, ingenuity and digestive systems; all based on being able to make the most of the resources.

A student is measuring the effect of different temperatures on the effect of enzymes in biological systems. What temperature ran
viktelen [127]

Answer:

A. 25 °C, 30 °C, 35 °C, 40 °C, 45 °C  

Explanation:

Each enzyme has a temperature at which it works best. In humans and many animals, that temperature is around body temperature (37 °C or 98.6 °F). Most enzymes are denatured and work poorly at 40 °C (104 °F).

That automatically eliminates Option B.

I would pick a temperature close to 37 °C (98.6 °F) and temperatures at intervals above and below that.

Option D is wrong because it includes no temperatures above body temperature.

Option C is wrong, because it includes temperatures of 45 °C and 55 °C, at which the enzymes will be denatured.

That leaves Option A as the best answer. It includes only one temperature above 40 °C.

Which of the following is a correct difference between active transport and facilitated diffusion?
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Active transport requires energy from ATP while facilitated diffusion does not

Explanation:

Active transport and facilitated diffusion with the use of channel and carrier proteins are both ways by which ions, polar and large molecules cross a selectively permeable membrane.

The major difference is that; Active transport transport these particles from a low to high concentration, which is against concentration gradient and hence, energy is required to perform the task

Facilitated diffusion transport from a high to low concentration, which is through a concentration gradient and hence, no energy is required to perform the task.

Your lab group is experimenting with the diffusion of molecules across a membrane. Dialysis tubing is used as a model cell membr
Margaret [11]

Answer: the membrane channel

Explanation:

In passive diffusion, the small water molecules can move across the phospholipid bilayer seen in blue. This layer acts as a semi-permeable or selectively permeable membrane; its hydrophilic heads are attracted to water (seen facing outwards) while its water-repellent hydrophobic tails face towards each other- allowing  molecules of water to diffuse across the membrane along the concentration gradient.

Thus the water will move from an area of high concentration  to an area of low concentration, until the system reaches a steady state called equilibrium- after this, there will be no net movement of water. Similarly via osmosis, the water passes through the membrane due to the difference in osmotic pressure on either side of the phospholipid bilayer this means that the water moves from regions of high osmotic pressure/concentration to regions of low pressure/ concentration to a steady state.

The dialysis tubing mimics a semi permeable membrane; it only allows water and small molecules of iodine to cross into the bag containing starch. The tubing is impermeable to starch;  these large molecules require the aid of protein omplexes called membrane channels, in order to move across the membrane and against the concentration gradient.

What is the best explanation for the observation that eukaryotes that seem superficially simple can have much larger genomes (in
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Some organisms have a tremendous amount of noncoding DNA, like repetitive sequences.

Explanation:

DNA is the genetic material in almost all the living organisms but except in case of viruses that has RNA as their genetic material. DNA consists of the four nitrogenous bases, pentose sugar and phosphate group.

Prokaryotes have simple body organization and structure because of the sall amount of DNA. Eukaryotes have complex body organization because they have large amount of the transposons, repetitive sequences and non repetitive DNA sequences.

Thus, the correct answer is option (b).

What does the operon model attempt to explain?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

a. the coordinated control of gene expression in bacteria

Explanation:

An operon in bacteria is a collection/cluster of genes that are under the control of a single promoter. It includes 3 components: a promoter, the genes and an operator. The operator is where a repressor binds, and the promoter is where transcription begins.

Operons allow organisms to control the expression of multiple genes in response to environmental cues
