A scientist investigated DNA replication in two groups of cells, labeled A and B. She injected radioactively labeled nucleotides

into cells of each group and allowed DNA replication to begin. When replication was halfway completed, she injected a drug into the cells to stop replication. She then examined the cells to determine the distribution of the newly-synthesized DNA. She found each cell of group A had many segments of new DNA in its nucleus, while each cell of group B had a single segment of new DNA in its cytoplasm. What can the researcher conclude about the cells?

Answer:

A is a eukaryotic cell while B is a prokaryotic cell

Explanation:

The researcher can conclude that <u>cell A is eukaryotic while cell B is prokaryotic.</u>

In eukaryotic cells, the <u>DNA is located majorly in the nucleus and the replication of the DNA happens in the nucleus</u>. Hence, it is only logical to find segments of new DNA in the nucleus of cell A during replication.

<u>Prokaryotic cells, however, lack a nucleus</u>. Their DNAs lie freely within the cytoplasm. This thus means that replication can only happen in the cytoplasm. Hence, it follows logically to find a new DNA segment in the cytoplasm of cell B.

Why are the filamentous body forms of slime molds (myxomycetes and acrasiomycetes), water molds (oomycetes) and the hyphae of fu
Sliva [168]

It is because convergent evolution represents the independent evolution of similar features in species that don't have the same ancestor. In this case filamentous body forms evolved independently, but have the same function: an adaptation for a nutrition of decomposers.

Which component of the electrocardiogram represents the duration of ventricular contraction?
Advocard [28]

QRS complex refers to the combination of the Q, R, and S waves, and indicates ventricular depolarization and contraction (ventricular systole).

Ventricular rate can be calculated by determining the time interval between QRS complexes. The duration of the QRS complex is normally 0.06 to 0.10 seconds. This relatively short duration indicates that ventricular depolarization normally occurs very rapidly.

P QRS and T waves in electrocardiogram signifies the P wave in an ECG complex indicates atrial depolarization. The QRS is responsible for ventricular depolarization and the T wave is ventricular repolarization.

The only competitors that humans have for food are other humans and insects <br> Agree or disagree ?
konstantin123 [22]

The only competitors that humans have for food are other humans and insects: Agree; we do compete with other animals for food

<u>Explanation:</u>

The term competitor is used to describe interaction that takes place within any two organisms as a result of which both the organisms are affected. The functional role that an organism have within the environment is known as Niche.

Parasitism refers to the interaction that takes place between any two organisms or species as a result of which only one will get benefits and the other one will be getting affected.In an ecosystem, every organism strives hard for living and need food for its survival. Hence, the competitors for food in an ecosystem will be other human, insects, animals, etc.
