Answer:

Atoms

Explanation:

Atom is the most basic unit of matter. Atoms are used to describe pieces of matter, but a different kind of atom makes up an element.  A combination of atom of different elements creates a molecule. Let's say you have some water, the chemical formula is "H20." If you wanted to separate H and O, that gives you two atoms. H would be Hydrogen and the other atom is Oxygen. So when we combine these two atom they formed as the chemical formula H20.

Explain how proteins are involved in controlling mitosis.
SashulF [63]

Explanation:

Almost all eukaryotic proteins are subject to post-translational modifications during mitosis and cell cycle, and in particular, reversible phosphorylation being a key event. The recent use of high-throughput experimental analyses has revealed that more than 70% of all eukaryotic proteins are regulated by phosphorylation; however, the mechanism of dephosphorylation, counteracting phosphorylation, is relatively unknown. Recent discoveries have shown that many of the protein phosphatases are involved in the temporal and spatial control of mitotic events, such as mitotic entry, mitotic spindle assembly, chromosome architecture changes and cohesion, and mitotic exit. This implies that certain phosphatases are tightly regulated for timely dephosphorylation of key mitotic phosphoproteins and are essential for the control of various mitotic processes. This review describes the physiological and pathological roles of mitotic phosphatases, as well as the versatile role of various protein phosphatases in several mitotic events.

Use the following graph of two theoretical populations (species A and B) to answer the following questions:
avanturin [10]
A) This is predator-prey relationship.

B) Species A is prey and species B is predator.
- If prey population decreases in number, the predator population will also decrease because there is not enough food for predators to survive and vice versa.

- If predator population decreases, the prey population will increase because less prey will be eaten by predators and vice versa.


C) Let population A be Zebras, and population B Lions.

From the graph, at the beginning the there is increase in Lions, as well as in smaller rate in Zebras. At one point, the population of Lions begins to decrease, so they will eat less Zebras. This will allow Zebras to increase population. With more Zebras on the menu, more Lions will eat and increase their chance to survive. This leads to decrease in Zebra population. But again, with less Zebras, the Lion population must decrease allowing Zebra population to increase, and so on.
