Answer:

“Clearly, some testing and research is done in dogs for historical reasons [existence of benchmark data] rather than because they are the best models

Explanation:

It is unconscionable that dogs, the most popular companion animals in the country, are used as research subjects in laboratories, but that is the tragic truth. United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) reports show that tens of thousands of dogs are used in research, testing, teaching, or experimentation in the U.S. every year by research facilities, including hospitals, schools, diagnostic laboratories and private firms in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries.

Although the number of dogs used in research has declined by 72% since their peak use in 1979, the most current USDA statistics show that 59,401 dogs were used for “research, testing, teaching, or experimentation” in 2018, although the exact purposes for which these dogs were used remain unclear.

Why do scientists use taxonomy to classify organism

Blizzard [7]

<span>That system grouped animals and plants by characteristics and relationships. Scientists looked at the characteristics that each organism had in common. They used the shared derived characteristics of organisms. Scientists were then able to find the common ancestry of the organisms.</span>

Why does it make sense for scientist to test just one variable at a time in an experiment?

Fed [463]

If you test more than one variable in an experiment at a time than you wouldn't know what variable caused the change in the end.

The concentration of agarose gel affects the resolution of DNA separation. For a standard agarose gel electrophoresis, a 0.8% gi

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

Use a higher % agarose gel.

Explanation:

Agarose gels have a porous matrix. The higher the concentration of agarose, the smaller the pores, so larger DNA molecules will have more difficulty moving through the gel and they will run slower than small DNA molecules.

The higher % agarose gel has thus a better resolving power (the measurable interval between two entities -the DNA bands- is smaller). For that reason, a 2% agarose gel will allow you to differentiate better between two bands of close molecular weight, if you let the DNA fragments run long enough.

Light energy from the sun is the primary source for all living organisms. So how does the sun provide energy for all living orga

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer: Heat or thermal energy coming from the sun provides energy for living organisms through heat transfer. For plants light energy is absorbed by the leaves and enters the stomata which activates the thylakoids and releases amount of electrons for chemical reactions. Through light energy plants produces glucose and releases oxygen gas as a by-product of the reaction. For this process energy is formed (ATP)
