A researcher has discovered an unusual organism deep in the crust of the Earth. She wants toknow whether it is prokaryotic or eu

karyotic. Imagine that she has rapid tests to determine whether the following molecules are present: DNA, RNA, phospholipids, and the proteins that form microtubules. Which test would you advise her to use and why?
A.Test for DNA, because only eukaryotes have a nucleus.
B.Test for RNA, because only eukaryotes have ribosomes.
C.Test for microtubule proteins, because only eukaryotes have microtubules.
D.Test for phospholipids, because only eukaryotes have phospholipids.

Answer:

C.Test for microtubule proteins, because only eukaryotes have microtubules.

Explanation:

Although some bacteria have similar cellular components, microtubules are only found in eukaryotic cells. This is why it is most likely that if it finds the components that form microtubules, the unidentified organism belongs to the group of Eukaryotes.

What is recombination and how does it work? is it the same thing as crossing-over? if an organism practiced self-fertilization,
Sever21 [200]
Recombination is the method by which organisms can randomly assort their genotypes amongst each other to create offspring with a different haplotype than either of its parents. This can be done by either copying sequences from one homologous chromosome to another (no physical exchange) or crossing over (physical exchange. 
Crossing over is a mechanism in eukaryotes by which recombination can occur, in which the two homologous chromosomes contributed by both parents literally cross over and break at certain points to exchange certain sections of the chromosomes amongst each together.
Self fertilizing organisms typically do not produce offspring that are genetically identical. However, this has an inbreeding effect on its offspring, since it is recombining from the same genotype and so has a higher chance of producing homozygous offspring. This is very detrimental for mammals and some eukaryotes, but in some other organisms such as bacteria, homozygosity is typically not an issue.

lapo4ka [179]

Animalia is the label that appears to differentiate animals from organisms on other kingdom.

Explanation:

Scientists uses the process called taxonomy to classify the organisms based on their structure, functions and relationship to other organisms.

Eukaryotes represents the domain of life. Domain Eukarya are classified into four kingdoms they are protista, fungi, plantae and animalia.

The kingdom protista represents the organisms that are simple structured and they swim through the water and obtain nutrients from the environment.

In the kingdom fungi like mushrooms absorb nutrients from the environment and they are heterotrophs.

In the plantae kingdom the organisms are plants and they are autotrophs. They prepare their own food.

In Animalia kingdom the organisms are animals and they are multicellular heterotrophs. They do not have cell walls and the reproduction is done sexually and some can reproduce asexual.

Glycogen stored within the ____________ serves as the predominant carbohydrate energy source as exercise intensity increases. li
Maru [420]

Answer:

The correct answer is- muscle

Explanation:

Glycogen is the body gets stored mainly in two places which are muscles and liver. During intense exercise glycogen which is stored in the muscle provides the main source of energy. So during exercise blood glucose levels do not reduce much because muscle also uses stored glycogen to get energy so as a result blood glucose level remains stable.

After the exercise, the glycogen in the muscle is again replenished because of the increase rate of glycogen synthesis after the exercise. Therefore the correct answer is muscle.
