Answer:

they obtain oxygen from water through gills

Explanation:

Amphibians are a group of organisms renowned for their ability to live on land and water. They include frogs, toads etc. Despite their numerous adaptive features that enable them to survive on land, they can still not live independently of water or aquatic environment.

This is because a stage of the life cycle of most amphibians require water for respiration via their GILLS. Amphibians in their juvenile stage e.g. tadpoles rely on water for them to breathe. Adult amphibians make use of lungs and skin for respiration.

What single feature is primarily responsible for the variation of climate throughout different times of the year?
konstantin123 [22]

The Sun is the basic source of energy for the Earth which affect the growth of all living things and the Sun also affect the all the biochemical processes. We know that the amount of radiation from the Sun changes day by day due to the distance of the Earth from the Sun. The rate of Solar energy affects the Earth in two ways.

The rate of solar heating which directly affects the processes like the evaporation and condensation and indirectly it affects the cloud forming processes of the Earth. The rate at which the solar energy reaches the Earth is called as the Total Solar Irradiance or TSI. This affects the climate of the Earth in many ways.

The change in rate of cloud formation increases of decreases with the distance of the Sun from Earth and hence a warm, moderate or cold climate is formed

It also affects the formation of winds due to the low or high pressure in the water bodies and hence affect the climate in the coastal areas.

The tropical areas have hot and humid climate due to the equator which has maximum exposure to the Sun’s heat.

Hence, the Sun is one primary feature that affects the climate in the Earth.

Exobiologists have discovered under the surface of Mars an alien species of single-celled organisms, which undergo sexual reprod
Llana [10]

Answer:

The dominant phenotypes are Long flagella and one vacuole, and the recessive phenotypes are small flagella and two vacuoles.

Explanation:

As you can see in the attached table

1. For the size of the flagella we gave that:

- 241 organisms have long flagella

- 79 organisms have short flagella,

As there are more organisms with long flagella we can conclude that this is the dominant phenotype while the short flagella is the recessive phenotype.

2. For the number of vacuole we have:

- 247 organisms have one vacuole

- 73 organisms have two vacuole

As there are more organisms with one vacuole we can conclude that this is the dominant phenotype while having two vacuoles a is the recessive phenotype.

Then

Dominant phenotypes = Long flagella and one vacuole

Recessive phenotypes = Short flagella and two vacuoles

10. Which of the following statements best describes the major difference between anaphase of mitosis and anaphase I of meiosis?
umka2103 [35]
The answer will be A because mitosis usually separate the sister chromatids to sister chromosomes to form two diploid cells. In meiosis, the goal is to have four haploid cells. To form that, cells need to undergo cell division two times. In the case of meiosis I, sister chromatids stay joined together until it reaches meiosis II. Then, the sister chromatids will separate starting at anaphase II in meiosis II. For example, if you start with 92 chromosomes (46 chromatids) during meiosis I, at meiosis II you will have two cells with 46 chromosomes (23 chromatids). By the end of meiosis II, you should form 4 haploid cells that contains 23 chromosomes.

During translation, what sets up the open reading frame in mRNA? What will it correspond to in DNA?
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

During the process of translation, the codon UAC sets up the open  reading frame in the mRNA (messenger Ribonucleic acid). The codon UAC corresponds to ATG in the DNA. It codes for the amino acid methionine.

Explanation:

The determination of the open reading frame is important in the process of translation and protein formation. The start and stop codons determine the open reading frame. In DNA (deoxyribonucleic Acid), there are typically six reading frames. The correct frame is determined and the translation is started.

The ATG codon in the DNA sets the reading frame in most of the eukaryotes. Different frames can be started by beginning with either 'A', 'T', or 'G'.

1. Skeletal muscle fibers do not have gap junctions, but heart muscle cells do. Why do you think there is this difference? In ot
Mumz [18]
<h2>Gap junctions </h2>

Explanation:

  • Skeletal muscle also called as voluntary muscle, is anchored to bone by tendons and is used to effect skeletal movement in activities such as locomotion and maintaining posture
  • Muscle associated with heart is called cardiac muscle is also an involuntary muscle but is more akin in structure to skeletal muscle
  • Both cardiac and skeletal muscles are striated, they contain sarcomeres and are packed into highly regular, repeating arrangements of bundles
  • Skeletal muscle do no have gap junctions because they are not single cells
  • The gap junctions, which are protein-lined tunnels, allow direct transmission of the depolarizing current from cell to cell, across the chambers of the heart, so that the cells contract in unison
  • Because of the way these gap junctions function, the cardiac muscle cells are said to be electrically coupled
