How does the Classification system distinguish between organisms?

Biology
1 answer:
polet [3.4K]3 years ago

Answer:

By organising them into five major kingdoms and further dividing each kingdom into phyla (or divisions), classes, orders, families, genus, and species.

Explanation:

There are five kingdoms:

  1. Monera: bacteria
  2. Protista: amoeba, paramecium, euglena
  3. Fungi: yeast, rhizopus
  4. Plantae: flowering and non-flowering plants
  5. Animalia: animals (vertebrates and invertebrates)

Organisms that share the most similar features are grouped into the same species. Species with similar features fall under the same genus. Several genus make up a family, several families make up an order, several orders make up a class, several classes make up a phylum (or division), and several phyla (or divisions) make up a kingdom.

Note: there are three domains (or superkingdoms): Archea, Bacteria, and Eukarya.

Tanner is convinced that the circulatory system and the immune system do not function together in humans. He did complete
Lilit [14]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

All the body's systems are linked together in some way. They all interact to produce a fully functioning organism.

A is not correct, becomes hormones are part of the endocrine system, not the immyne system.

B is not correct, because they are not explicitly involved in homeostasis

C is incorrect, all the systems are always working in the background.

The correct answer is D, one way in which the two systems are linked is that the cells of the immune system need to circulate around the body. The circulatory system is incredibly important for this, ensuring that the cells can reach their target sites

imagine that you could treat chloroplats with an indiicator dye that turns red in acidic conditions, yellow in neutral ocndition
zmey [24]

The amount of light between points 1 and 2 is adequate for photosynthesis to occur at a faster rate than cellular respiration. Acidic conditions typically imply that the solution has an excessive concentration of H+, which makes the solution acidic. By dividing the reaction into half-reactions, the balancing process begins.

This indicates that more CO2 is being consumed than is being produced, which makes the problem more straightforward.

The signal will become purple as a result, from yellow. After point 2, light levels are low enough that cellular respiration outpaces photosynthesis, which results in more CO2 being generated than being absorbed and raising the pH of the solution. The indication will become yellow as a result, from purple.

An indicator dye called bromothymol blue (BMB) changes color from blue to yellow when acid is present. The pH of the solution decreases when carbon dioxide is introduced because it produces carbonic acid. When the pH is greater than 7.6, green, between 6.7 and 7.6, and yellow, less than 6, BMB is blue.

Suppose a drug is developed that blocks K+ leakage channels. The drug prevents ions from passing through those channels. If this
Sav [38]

Answer: 1. The resting membrane potential would become less negative (more positive).

Explanation:

Resting membrane potential is a voltage carried by a resting (non-signaling) neuron, or called as resting potential, across its membrane.  The resting potential is determined by ion concentration gradients across the membrane, and the permeability of the membrane to each ion form.  

In a resting brain, there are gradients of concentration across the Na+ and K+ membranes. Forces shift their gradients down through channels, resulting in a separation of charges that provides the potential for rest. The membrane is much more permeable to K+ than to Na+, so the resting potential is similar to K+'s potential for equilibrium.

Hence, the correct option is 1. The resting membrane potential would become less negative (more positive).

A phagocytic cell has a mutation in a gene for a hydrolytic enzyme that renders the enzyme nonfunctional. What is the most likel
pshichka [43]

Answer: The phagocyte’s ability to destroy the ingested pathogen is compromised and it will become inactive.

Explanation:

There are different hydrolytic enzymes. Lysozyme attacks cell walls of gram positive bacteria. Elastase is a protease. Collagenase attacks collagen, produced by some bacteria. Plasminogen activator is also a protease.

Loss of function of any one of these enzymes will reduce or prevent the breakdown of bacteria in the phagosome (vacuole) so that the phagocyte is inactivated.
