Answer:

A. Scientists discovered chromosomes and DNA.

Explanation:

Mendel's ideas were based on patterns of inheritance in plants. Although he identified these patterns, at the time, we did not know what the hereditary material was. This means Mendel couldn't uncover the mechanism of why he was seeing the patterns he was.

When scientists discovered chromosomes and DNA, they were able to see how Mendel's observations made sense in the context of DNA and chromosomes.

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.

it requires 12 hours to fill 3/5 of a swimming pool at this rate how many hours is required to fill the remainder pool

emmasim [6.3K]

So if you take the 12 hours that it takes to fill the swimming pool 3/5 way then u divide 12 by 3 and you would get 4 which would mean each quarter took 4 hours then it would take 8 more hours to fill the rest of the swimming pool

Classify the following organisms into their respective kingdoms (i) Yeast (ii) Penicillium (iii) Rhizobium (iv) Mushroom (v) Amo

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

(i) Yeast- Kingdom Fungi

(ii) Penicillium- Kingdom Fungi

(iii) Rhizobium- Kingdom Eubacteria

(iv) Mushroom- Kingdom Fungi

(v) Amoeba- Kingdom Protista

(vi) fish- Kingdom Animalia

Explanation:

Living organisms were classified into a large group called KINGDOM, which represent the largest and most generic grouping consisting of organisms that share a few similarities. The kingdoms that living organisms were classified into are as follows: Plantae, Animalia, Fungi, Protista, Eubacteria, Archaebacteria, etc.

Based on the question, the mentioned organisms are classified into the following kingdoms:

(I) Yeast: Yeast is a unicellular microbe classified under the Kingdom Fungi due to possession of chitin in its cell wall and other similar features with members of kingdom Fungi.

ii) Penicillium- Penicillium is a genus classified under the Kingdom Fungi.

(iii) Rhizobium- Rhizobium is a genus of prokaryotic organism (lack membrane-bound nucleus and organnelles) classified under the Kingdom Eubacteria.

(iv) Mushroom- Mushrooms are saprophytic (heterotrophic) species of organisms classified under the Kingdom Fungi.

(v) Amoeba- Amoeba is a genus of unicellular eukaryotes classified under the Kingdom Protista.

(vi) fish- Fishes are organisms classified under the Kingdom Animalia

A man who heavily smokes has developed lung cancer. The tobacco smoke has caused mutations in some of the cells in his lungs, ma

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

If he inherited a mutation which made him more susceptible to lung cancer, it may have been present in some of the gametes he produced and passed to his children

Explanation:

Even tho the cause of lung cancer is not very clear, a genetic predisposition is of a great influence, his smoking and therefore causing a lung cancer is not appliable to his children because of no connection, but in the sense of having a mutation which makes you predisposable to the cancer with or without the smoking, can lead to a high risk of gene inheritance and therefore inheriting the mutation with a high risk of getting lung cancer excluding the smoking.
