Answer:

Soap solution functions to dissolve the cell membranes, alcohol is used to precipitate DNA, and Gatorade is a isotonic solution.

Explanation:

In the DNA extraction protocols, the cell membranes that are formed by lipidic bilayers can be dissolved by using detergent solutions that are functionally analog to soap solution, shampoo, etc. On the other hand, alcohol enables to precipitate DNA (because DNA is not soluble in alcohol), while proteins and other cellular components remain in the extraction solution. Finally, Gatorade is a isotonic solution that may be used to prevent the cells from lysing.

Which of the following cells is formed by meiosis?
Lilit [14]

Answer:

B. A sperm cell

Explanation:

Meiosis creates gametes/sex cells, such as the sperm and egg.

So, sperm cells are formed by meiosis.

Meiosis doesn't create fertilized eggs, it instead creates normal egg cells.

Meiosis also doesn't create heart and bacterial cells because those are made in mitosis.

So, B is the correct answer.

How might biodiversity in Area 1 change if the new bird species ate small mammals, lizards, and toads?
zmey [24]

Knowing that Biodiversity is the variety and variability of life on Earth. Biodiversity is typically a measure of variation at the genetic, species, and ecosystem level. Terrestrial biodiversity is usually greater near the equator, which is the result of the warm climate and high primary productivity. The ecosystem will change if a new species is introduced to an unfamiliar ecosystem. If a new species of birds were to eat another animal that was supposed to be eaten by another. The food chain of the ecosystem would be changed drastically. Aka, it might make the lizards go extinct, and can possibly become abundant. Aka, overpopulating and creating havoc within the ecosystem. Thus, causing imbalance.
