Answer:

Approximately 338

Explanation:

Since each generation of the insect is approximately 1.5 times that of the previous generation. Therefore,

Population of insect in the first generation = 100

Population of insect in the second generation = 1.5 × 100

                                                                    = 150

Population of insect in the third generation = 1.5 × 150

                                                                     = 225

Population of insect in the fourth generation = 1.5 × 225

                                                                     = 337.5

The population of insect in the fourth generation is approximately 338.

How is RNA and DNA different
Shkiper50 [21]

-DNA is double stranded,RNA is one stranded

-DNA contains the following nitrogenous bases:Adeninde Guanine Timine Citozine while RNA contains Adeninde Guanine Citozine and Uracil

-DNA function is to contain the information for manufacturing proteins while there are many types of RNA with whole different jobs for example:messanger RNA(mRNA) it coppies a sequence from the DNA strand and takes it to the ribosome in order to be translated as the order for placing aminoacids in the polypeptide strand;transport RNA(tRNA) it is a short RNA strand containing up to 100 nucleotides it takes aminoacids to the ribosome so the polypeptides strand can start to be manufatured from aminoacids in an order inscripted in the mRNA.

Which regions best identifies where myosin would have maximum cross-bridge access to actin?
8090 [49]
<h2>Region between 2 and 3</h2>

Explanation:

Muscles consists of two protein filaments:a thick filament which is made up of protein myosin whereas a thin filament is made up of protein actin

  • During contraction,thin filaments slide past the thick filament resulting in shortening of sarcomere
  • Myosin thick filaments grab on to the actin filaments by forming cross bridges
  • The thick filaments pull the thin filaments past them making the sarcomere shorter
  • The region between points 2 and 3 includes the area of overlap between thin and thick filaments
