Biology
1 answer:
ExtremeBDS [4]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

a chromosome contains many genes. A gene is a segment of DNA that provides the code to construct a protein. The DNA molecule is a long, coiled double helix that resembles a spiral staircase.

Explanation:

Human cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes containing DNA. The chromosomes serve as the structure that holds the DNA. The DNA acts as a complete set of instructions that tells our bodies how to develop.

You made a "cell" using dialysis tubing and a concentrated sugar solution tinted red. You then placed the cell in distilled wate
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

When the cell has 0% sucrose I expect the cell to stay the same.

Explanation:

First of all, this question should not be confused for the statement "When the "cell" has 0% sucrose, did you expect the cell to have gained water, lost water, or stay the same. In this case, the correct answer would have been; gained water.

But, in this question, we are asked what happens to the cells at 0% sucrose concentration. At 0% (no solute) concentration, there is no net movement of water or solute into or out of the cell, because the cell is isotonic to the external environment (distilled water). Osmosis, a special kind of diffusion, is the movement of water, from areas of lower solute concentration to area of higher solute concentration, or from areas of higher water concentration to areas of lower water concentration through a semi-permeable membrane. If the water moves into the cells (hypertonic cells), then the cell gains water and increases in size, but if the cell loses water (hypotonic cell), then it reduces in size

Describe two reasons why the use of synthetic fertilizers is not the answer to decreasing soil quality
katovenus [111]

Answer:

Two reasons why the use of synthetic fertilizers is not the answer to decreasing soil quality are:

  • They increase the nitrate levels in the soil which is a rich supplement for nitrogen needed by plants for their growth.
  • They are easily available and user-friendly but should be used in regulated amounts as an excess of nutrients like nitrogen and phosphorus present in synthetic fertilizers enter the aquatic ecosystem.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Synthetic fertilizers are made up of three main nutrients, viz, nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus. All of these are required for the proper growth of plants.  Though, these fertilizers give higher yields, yet their excessive use is bad for aquatic ecosystems.

When these fertilizers are used in excessive amounts, they reduce the dissolved oxygen in the water as there’s an increase of bacteria and algae in the water.  That is why such fertilizers should be used in regulated amounts.
