Answer:

the next step is to multiply the result by 5/9.

Explanation:

Below, the formula to convert Farenheit degrees to Celcius.

T(°C) = (T(°F) - 32) × 5/9

If barbara already subtracted 32 from 78, now the next step is to multiply the result by 5/9.

T(°C) = (78°F - 32) × 5/9 → T(°C) = (46) × 5/9 = 25.55°C

How have dna microarrays made a huge impact on genomic studies?
garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Microarray technology is a very useful technology that allows to study the measure the expression levels of large numbers of genes simultaneously. It consists of a solid support (that can be glass, silice, or nylon), and to it are attached a lot of single stranded DNA fragments that acts like probes. By complementarity, the genes corresponding to this probes that are being expressed at some time will attach to it. Probe-target hybridization is usually detected and quantified by detection of a fluorophore compund, a silver stained, or chemiluminescence-labeled targets.

What organism is scientist tyrone hayes searching for in the wetlands
Margarita [4]

For biologist and herpetologist Tyrone Hayes, scientific breakthroughs don't begin and end in the laboratory. They also come from the field. Which is why, more often than not, you'll find Hayes wet, muddy, and knee-deep in an African swamp at 2 a.m., the time when the frogs come out.

Hayes grew up in South Carolina, and, as a boy, one of his favorite pastimes was tracking down the region's abundant turtles, snakes, and toads. That abiding fascination led Hayes to earn an undergraduate degree in organismic and evolutionary biology from Harvard University. He later received a Ph.D. in integrative biology from the University of California, Berkeley, where he currently serves as a professor.

Hayes says an interest in frog hormones, specifically those of a tiny reed frog common in Ethiopia and Uganda, sparked his interest in his current fieldwork. "Surprisingly, frog hormones are very similar, and in some cases identical, to human hormones," he says. "So what affects a frog may also affect humans."

It was during a night in the boggy African bush that Hayes's flashlight revealed an unexpected discovery: Several members of the reed frog genus had changed color. Males, which are normally green, had taken on the reddish background and white spots of females.

Seeking to understand why, Hayes arrived at a theory: During the metamorphosis from tadpole to adult, frogs are very sensitive to changes in their environment, including chemicals in the water or in their food supply. So the change in coloration indicated that the frogs' extremely thin, sensitive skin was reacting to contaminants in the water. Thousands of frogs later, Hayes and his research team have proved the theory correct.

Reed frogs, indeed, serve as tiny red flags that can warn when dangerous, even cancer-causing chemicals are present in a water source. These harmful substances may contain or act like hormones, triggering the color transformation. Contaminants include plastic by-products, pesticides in crop sprays such as DDT, and synthetic hormones such as DDS. Because they cannot be broken down during sewage treatment, the toxins flow into marshes and lakes.

"This is the same water people cook and bathe with," Hayes notes. "We've found developmental changes in tadpoles when water contains contaminants 50 times lower than what's allowed in U.S. drinking water. If chemicals in such low concentrations can impact amphibians, mammals may also be affected."

Hayes realized his simple observation could have enormous practical applications: Reed frogs could become a low-cost way to test for water pollution in developing countries. Local residents would only need to raise the frogs in questionable water sources and observe their color as adults to check for contaminants.

Hayes's findings reveal a crucial new link between conservation and health.

Plant structure URGENT!!!
Fofino [41]

1) D) transport water  

2) A) transport sugar  

3) D) transports fluids throughout the plant.  

4) A) epidermal cells  

5) B) parenchyma  

6) A) collenchyma  

7) C) sclerenchyma

Xylem is a specialized tissue in vascular plants that is primarily responsible for the distribution of water and nutrients from roots to stems and leaves. The xylem also provides mechanical support and storage to the plant.

Phloem is a specialized tissue in vascular plants that is primarily responsible for the distribution of food nutrients such as glucose (sugar) and amino acids from the leaves to various parts of the plant
