E. coli cells grown on 15N medium are transferred to 14N medium and allowed to grow for two more generations (two rounds of DNA

replication). DNA extracted from these cells is centrifuged. What density distribution of DNA would you expect in this experiment?
a. one high-density and one low-density band
b. one intermediate-density band
c. one high-density and one intermediate-density band
d. one low-density and one intermediate-density band

Answer:

Option (d).

Explanation:

DNA is the genetic material of all the organism except some viruses. DNA is composed of nitrogenous base, deoxyribose pentose sugar and the phosphate group.

DNA replicatese by semi-conservative mode of replication in which one the daughter DNA consists of one newly synthesized strand and one parental strand. This mode of replication was explained by Messelson and Sthal experiment. The cells from 15N medium are transferred to 14N medium the band of intermediate density was observed. The daughter DNA consists of one 15N DNA strand and one 14N DNA strnd. This strand undergo replication in the 14N medium. This time one low density DNA band ( contains 14N - 14N DNA strand) and one intermediate density band ( 14N-15N DNA).

Thus, the correct answer is option (d).

The most inclusive level of organization encompasses all regions of Earth's crust, waters, and atmosphere and is called the ____
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The most inclusive level of organization is called the Biosphere.

Explanation:

The biological level of organization is organized from the simplest(least inclusive) to the most complex(most inclusive)

The Atom is the simplest unit. Two or more atoms will form a molecule.

The molecules come together to form a cell which is the basic functional unit of life. Cells come together to form tissues then organs and the organ system. Together they make an organism

Populations is formed by a group of the same organisms living in the same area.

Different populations will form a community. The communities together with the environment they live in form an Ecosystem.

Lastly, The Biosphere is the most inclusive and encompasses all ecosystems on Earth

Retrieve your plant specimens. If you have an Edmentum lab kit, your specimens are a cork section, Zea
Tcecarenko [31]

In the plant, when a cell divides into two daughter cells, we observe in this experiment Mitosis, which is the cell division that allows the plant to elongate and occurs in the meristematic tissues that are at the ends of the plants. Whereas meiosis is restricted to reproductive tissue and forms gametes that will form new seeds through fertilization, carrying genes from one generation to another.

<h3>How does mitosis occur in plant cells?</h3>

In plant cells, division takes place from the inside out – centripetal cytokinesis. In plant cells, cytokinesis is centrifugal, from the outside to the inside: there is the formation of a lamella, which grows from the center to the periphery and separates the two cells.

With this information, we can conclude that through successive mitotic divisions that the zygote (cell generated after the meeting of gametes) manages to originate all the cells of its organism. Mitosis, therefore, is responsible for the growth and development of embryos.
