The correct option is B, that is, A FAMILY DONATES USED CLOTHING TO A SECOND HAND STORE.

Waste prevention has to do with the process and practice of reducing the amount of wastes products in order to produce a more sustainable environment. Waste prevention can also be called recycling. There are three types of waste prevention, these are primary, secondary and tertiary waste prevention / recycling.

Primary waste prevention refers to a situation in which the material to be disposed is not changed in anyway, before been reused. Such material can be given to friend or donated to a charity organization. The material is always used for the same purpose as the original use.  

Secondary waste prevention involves some kind of modifications while tertiary waste prevention usually involves the use of chemicals and heat.

imagine a cell-surface receptor protein is being newly synthesized. How can it get into the membrane that it will ultimately be
motikmotik

Answer:

the steps for a new receptor synthesis:

Explanation:

Do not forget the steps vary from an eukarityc cell to prokarityc one.  

IN AN EUKARYOTIC CELL:

1- Transcription: in the nucleus, mRNA is synthesized from the DNA sequence that codifies the protein. Exons are spliced if needed by spliceosomes.  

2- From nucleus into cytoplasm: mRNA goes through nuclear membrane into the cytoplasm were ribosomes, substrates for protein synthesis and other organelles are.

3- Ribosomes recognize a signal in mRNA and start reading the genetic code, three consecutive nucleotides at a time and adjust the correspondent tRNAs (tRNAs carry the aminoacids)  

4- Peptide bonds are formed between consecutives aminoacids, and a polypeptide is build up according to the mRNA sequence.

5- (The mRNA has a signal that is recognized by the rough endoplasmic reticulum) The peptide goes into this reticulum (RER) and then into Golgi apparatus. (more chemical modifications are made if needed). By this moment the protein has an inserted portion in a lipid membrane.

6- The protein is transported in a vessel that finally fusions with cytoplasmic membrane and the receptor is in destiny. Hydrophobic aminoacid sequences are inserted in membrane.

IN A PROKARYTIC CELL:

1- Transcription (no splicing is needed, there are not exons)

2- There are not nucleus and cytoplasm divided (no transport)

3- Ribosomes recognize a signal in mRNA and start reading the genetic code, three consecutive nucleotides at a time and adjust the correspondent tRNAs (tRNAs carry the aminoacids)

4- Peptide bonds are formed between consecutives aminoacids, and a polypeptide is build up according to the mRNA sequence.

5- The mRNA has a signal that is guides the growing protein to cellular membrane. Hydrophobic aminoacid sequences are inserted in membrane.

A population of wild-flowers was scored for flower color. There were 302 blue (BB) plants, 1857 violet (BR) plants and 811 red (
Paul [167]

Answer:

frequency of the blue (B) allele = 0.4142

frequency of the red (R) allele = 0.5858

The number of blue plants expected is 509.652

The number of red plants expected is 1019.304

The anticipated number of violet plants is 1441.341

Calculated chi square value

= 84.5320 + 42.5688 + 119.8692\\= 246.97

Explanation:

Frequency of blue allele is

Frequency of blue allele is equal to sum of frequency of BB and half of frequency of BR

\frac{302}{2970} + \frac{1}{2} \frac{1857}{2970} \\= 0.1016 + 0.3126\\= 0.4142

Frequency of other allele

1- 0.4142\\= 0.5858

Chi Square test

See the attached file

The number of blue plants expected is 509.652

The number of red plants expected is 1019.304

The anticipated number of violet plants is 1441.341

Calculated chi square value

= 84.5320 + 42.5688 + 119.8692\\= 246.97
