Answer:

Memory

Explanation:

  • The two important features that characterize the adaptive immune system are specificity and memory. 
  • The ability of the adaptive immune system to target specific pathogen and generate a tailored immune response against it is termed as specificity. 
  • The ability of the adaptive immune system to remember the first exposure to the pathogen and thus, generate a heightened and more rapid immune response against the same pathogen on subsequent exposure is termed as memory.

What is the difference between an anticodon and a codon?
liubo4ka [24]
<span>A codon is the triplet sequence in the messenger RNA (mRNA) transcript which specifies a corresponding amino acid (or a start or stop command). An anticodon is the corresponding triplet sequence on the transfer RNA (tRNA) which brings in the specific amino acid to the ribosome during translation. The anticodon is complementary to the codon, that is, if the codon is AUU, then the anticodon is UAA. There are no T (Thymine) nitrogen bases in mRNA. It's replaced by U (Uracil).</span>

To test the hypothesis that a particular plant synthesizes storage lipids by using glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (G3P) from photosy
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

Radiolabeled carbon atom in CO2

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants fix the atmospheric CO2 into glucose. The process includes carbon fixation during which RuBisCo enzyme catalyzes the reaction of CO2 and a five-carbon compound called RuBP to form 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA). The 3-PGA enters the reduction phase of the Calvin cycle wherein it is reduced into glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. Two molecules of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate make one molecule of glucose.

To test the hypothesis that glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate from photosynthesis is used by plants to synthesize lipids, radiolabeled CO2 must be used. The radiolabeled carbon atom in the CO2 would be fixed in the form of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate. If the plant uses glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate as a precursor for lipid synthesis, the synthesized lipid molecules would carry the radiolabeled carbon atom.

Which concept is correctly matched with an example from The Beaks of Finches lab? A) Variation – different "beaks" were availabl
victus00 [196]

Answer: Option A.

Different beaks were available

Explanation:

Variation is the difference between traits, cells, or characteristics between organisms of any species which is caused by change in genetic information or effect of environmental factors on the expression of genes.

From the question, different beaks were available because there is variation or differences in shapes, sizes and expression.

allochka39001 [22]

A cell consists of three parts: the cell membrane, the nucleus, and, between the two, the cytoplasm. Within the cytoplasm lie intricate arrangements of fine fibers and hundreds or even thousands of miniscule but distinct structures called organelles.

1. Which grouping in the animal kingdom is the only one that contains organisms with vertebrae?
harkovskaia [24]

Vertebrata

Vertebrata is a group that contains various organisms which possess vertebrae (backbones). Animals that belong to the group are called vertebrates, and they include mammals, birds, fish, amphibians, and reptiles. The backbones in the animals extends from the head to the tail, and it encloses and protects the main nerve cord. The body of vertebrates is divided into trunk, and tail regions. They also possess a unique tube shaped brain, a distinct head, and three pairs of sense organs.
