A student encounters a pondweed which, judging from its appearance, seems to be a charophyte. She brings a sample back to her bi

ology lab. Using only a compound light microscope to study the sample, which of the following features should help her to determine whether the sample comes from a charophyte or from some other type of green alga?1. molecular structure of enzymes inside peroxisomes2. structure of sperm cells3. presence of phragmoplasts4. rings of cellulose-synthesizing complexes

Answer:

Option (2), (3) and (4).

Explanation:

Charophytes are the group of some green algae of fresh water. The cahrophyta can be included in both the division and super division.  Embryophyta has been emerged from the charophyta.

A student confirm whether the algae is charophyte or not by looking at the specific features. The cahrophytes has well defined sexual characters and the structure of sperm cell, the presence of phragmoplast confirms the charophytes. The cellulose synthesizing ring complex is also present in charophytes.

Thus, the correct answer is option (2), (3) and (4).

beks73 [17]

Answer:

The inducer will combines with the repressor and inactivates the pathway.

Explanation:

Inducer is a term in Molecular Biology, which represent a molecule or substance that has the capability to activate the transcription of a gene, where by it joins with and then inactivates a genetic repressor.

In other words, the inducer binds with the repressor in order to prevent the RNA polymerase to combine to the DNA, and chemically produce mRNA, this is done by repressor proteins combining with the DNA strand.

Inducer specifically makes repressor to change shapes, which will make it not combine with the DNA, and therefore, allow formation of transcription, such that expression of gene will eventually occur.

How are respiration and photosynthesis related to each other?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Photosynthesis makes the glucose that is used in cellular respiration to make ATP. The glucose is then turned back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis. ... While photosynthesis requires carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, cellular respiration requires oxygen and releases carbon dioxide.

3. Consider the technology behind each type of
Degger [83]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>The light microscope uses visible light to produce images of objects on its slide while the electron microscope uses beams of electrons to project the image of specimens.  Color is a property of photons of light, hence, the light microscope is able to produce images of specimens in their natural colors </em>

<em>The areas of the specimen on an electron microscope in which the beams of electron pass through usually appear white while other areas appear black. Hence, the electron microscopes can only produce grayscale images of specimens unless a false color is added to make the images visually appealing.</em>

Changes in the gene pool can occur due to various mechanisms. From 1892 to 1954, millions of individuals emigrated (moved out) f
NNADVOKAT [17]
The mechanism that affected the gene pool of the immigrants that entered the United states Through Ellis Island is Gene flow.

Gene flow involves the movement of genes or alleles between interbreeding populations of a particular species. In other words it is the movement of genes from one population to another population. Actually it may be an important aspect of evolution; evolution can occur as a result of genes being transferred from one population to another. Gene flow occurs when there is migration, since the loss or addition of people can easily change pool frequencies even without no other evolutionary mechanisms operating.

1. Depth: The water level in the Great Salt Lake fluctuates from year to year.  Water levels drop and salinity increases when less water flows into the lake than usual. Not only that, but the wetlands dry up and the shoreline recedes. The reason the shoreline shifts so dramatically is because it sits at the bottom of a broad and relatively flat basin. For a visual example, think of pouring water into a plate versus a bowl.  
Salinity: This Great Salt Lake has a high mineral content, as most terminal lakes are, which means that it is quite salty.   Even the fresh water flowing into the lake contains small amounts of dissolved minerals.  As water evaporates from the lake, the minerals stay behind.  As a result, these minerals have accumulated to very high levels because they have been left behind for thousands of years. The Great Salt Lake is between 3.5 and 8 times saltier than the ocean. However, the organisms that survive in such saline conditions have adapted to their surroundings through special features. 
Temperature: The Great Salt Lake has a very shallow depth, with an average of 14 feet deep and a mere maximum of 33 feet. This means that a lot of the surface area is exposed to the air, and is at the mercy of its seasonal temperature fluctuations. In the summer, rise to more than 80 degrees Fahrenheit while falling to below freezing in the winter.  
2. Depth: Salinity drops and lake levels rise during high precipitation years. Wetlands get covered by salt water, and the shoreline expands, sometimes destroying wildlife habitats and killing sensitive vegetation. 
Salinity:  <span>Changes in lake elevation are accompanied by changes in salinity. The salinity in the lake decreases as incoming fresh water dilutes the salt water.  This happens during the wet years.  During dry years, however, salinity increases as continued evaporation removes fresh water.  
</span>Temperature: Because of the lake's salt high content, the water doesn't usually freeze. However, as the temperature drops during the winter, less saline zones freeze solid, and most of the lake turns into a vivid pea-soup green color.  In mid-March, temperatures begin to rise again as brine shrimp begin hatching.  By late April, juvenile, and adult brine shrimp fill the water, serving as food for migrating and breeding birds.
3. Brine shrimp are smaller in highly salty water and larger in less salty water. Also, salinity levels also affect the rate of sexual development. Higher salinities produce adults who reach maturity quicker but are shorter in length. As salinity increases, the abdomen becomes longer relative to body length.  Low salinity may also cause cysts to crack prematurely, as well as allowing other competitors into the ecosystem.  High salinity results in offspring that develop quickly but are smaller and have a relatively longer abdomen.  In short, effects of abiotic conditions on brine shrimp are development rate, the rate of sexual maturity, the overall length of the abdomen, amount/type of food available, cyst density and location.
4. One limiting factor of brine shrimp are predators: corixids that consume brine shrimp, grebes that consume brine shrimp and their cysts, and humans that commercially harvest brine shrimp cysts.  Another limiting factor for brine shrimp is cooler temperatures.  They<span> are much more productive in warmer water and consume more phytoplankton.  However, when the lake water temperature is cold, the shrimp population tends to decline. </span>
