The statement “This type of evidence can be checked by others” best explains the importance of empirical evidence in science.
Explanation:
There are all kinds of evidence used in science, but empirical evidence is obtained as a result of <u>repeated experiments and observations</u>. This evidence is used to either support or argue against a scientific theory. Empirical evidence is the preferred evidence since this kind of evidence can be peer reviewed, i.e. reviewed by other scientists and/or researchers. In other words, the experiment can be redone, and the <u>evidence can be tested</u>.
Euglena move by a flagellum<span>, which is a long whip-like structure that acts like a little motor. The </span>flagellum<span> is located on the anterior (front) end, and twirls in such a way as to pull the cell through the water. It is attached at an inward pocket called the reservoir</span>
Answer: hypotonic, isotonic, hypertonic
Explanation: The tonicity of a solution depends in part on its concentration of the solute that can not pass the membrane (non penetrating solute) relative to that inside the cell.
Hypotonic solution (hypo means less): contains less concentration of non penetrating solute relative to that inside the cell. Water will enter the cell and the cell will swell and late.
Isotonic solution (Iso means same): it contains thesame solute relative to that in the cell, there will be no net movement of water across the plasma membrane.
Hypertonic solution (hyper means more) Hypertonic solution contain more solute relative to that in the cell. Hence the cell will lose water to its environment and may shrink and die.
Answer:
Villi are finger-like projections.They increase the surface area of inner walls and helps alot in absorption of digested food.
Explanation:
Answer:
Enzyme- Peptidase/protease
Explanation:
According to this question, a student is conducting an experiment to determine the roles of molecules in metabolic processes such as digestion. Based on what she found out that the molecule, which itself can be broken down into amino acids, can also break down proteins into amino acids, this suggests that the molecule being described is a PROTEOLYTIC ENZYME.
This is because an enzyme is made up of proteins which can be denatured or broken down into its simplest unit (amino acids) and also, a substance that breaks down amino acid is said to be PROTEOLYTIC.
However, another observation that the molecule is found in high concentrations in the small intestine was made, hence, the enzyme is a PEPTIDASE OR PROTEASE, which are secreted into the small intestine by the pancreas to aid digestion of proteins.
