One seed was planted in each of 5 pots found around the house that contained 500g of "Pete`s potting Soil." The pots were given

the following amounts of distilled water each day for each day of 40 days: pot 1, 50mL; Pot 2, 100mL; Pot 3, 150mL; Pot 4, 200mL; Pot 5, 250mL. Because Pot 3 received the recommended amount of water it was used as a control. The height of each plant was measured at the end of the experiment. What is the independent variable?

Answer:

The independent variable is amounts of distilled water.

Explanation:

The dependent variable of this experiment is the height of each plant which is dependent on the amounts of distilled water added to each pot. Notice that days and amount of soil are constants. Therefore, the independent variable in this case is the amount of water added to each pot.

An action potential causes the release of neurotransmitters by:________.
seraphim [82]

Answer:

b) opening calcium pores in the membrane

Explanation:

The opening of calcium  ions channels facilitates the migration of vesicles containing neurotransmitters in the pre-synaptic neurons  to the tip of the post-synaptic membrane. at the <u>neuromuscular  junction </u>These neurotransmitters can either be <u>cholinergic or non-chorlinergic.</u>   <u>At the tip  of the pre-synaptic membranes the vesicles empty their neurotransmitter contents into the synapse.</u>

The neurotransmitters,  diffuse through the neuromuscular junction to bind  with the receptors on the <u>post-synaptic membrane on the post-synaptic neuron.</u> This  stimulates opening of<u> ligand gated sodium ions,</u> and sodium ions  diffuse into the post-synaptic neuronal membrane, to cause <u>depolarization</u>. if the stimulus is  up to the threshold levels   it  generate action potential.

Therefore , more calcium ions channels opening produces; more diffusion of neurotransmitters;leading to opening of more sodium channels for depolarization; and IPSP or EPSP  generation.

In humans, blue eyes are inherited as a recessive autosomal trait and color blindness is an X-linked recessive trait. A woman wi
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

A) One-half of their daughters will have normal color vision and brown eyes; 1/2 of their daughters will have normal color vision and blue eyes.

Explanation:

<u>The genotypes and phenotypes are</u>:

  • BB or Bb= brown eyes
  • bb= blue eyes
  • XᴰXᴰ, XᴰXᵈ (women) or XᴰY (men)= normal vision
  • XᵈXᵈ (women) or XᵈY (men) = color blind

A woman has blue eyes (bb) and normal color vision (she has an Xᴰ chromosome) but her father was color-blind, so the other X chromosome she has carries the recessive d allele. She has the genotype bb XᴰXᵈ.

The man has normal color vision (he is XᴰY) and has brown eyes, but his mother had blue eyes so he must have inherited a b allele from her and is therefore heterozygous Bb. His genotype is BbXᴰY.

The blue/brown eyes gene is autosomal and independent from the sex-linked color blindness gene.

The woman can produce the gametes b Xᴰ and b Xᵈ.

The man can produce the gametes B Xᴰ, b Xᴰ, B Y and bY.

<u />

<u>The female daughters can have the following genotypes and phenotypes:</u>

  • Bb XᴰXᴰ brown eyes, normal color vision
  • Bb XᴰXᵈ brown eyes, normal color vision
  • bb Xᴰ Xᴰ blue eyes, normal color vision
  • bb Xᴰ Xᵈ blue eyes, normal color vision
