Consider the rabbit pairs that illustrate the pattern in the Fibonacci sequence. These rabbits produce exactly 1 pair of new rab

bits after reaching maturity at age 2 months. Imagine that the rabbits and all their offspring live forever. Also, imagine the field the rabbits live in can expand in size so that its side length is exactly equal to the number of pairs of rabbits living in the field. What is the side length of the field at the end of two years

Answer:46368

Explanation:

Start with two non-negative integers, f(0) and f(1). Compute f(2) = f(0) + f(1). Compute f(3) = f(1) + f(2).

Continue, creating f(n) = f(n-1) + f(n-2), where each new number is the sum of the prior two numbers in the sequence.

By convention, f(0) = 0. f(1) = 1 for our new first pair. f(2) = 1 as well, as conception just occurred. The new pair is born at the end of month 2, so during month 3, f(3) = 2. Only the initial pair produces offspring in month 3, so f(4) = 3. In month 4, the initial pair and the month 2 pair breed, so f(5) = 5. At the end of a year, Fibonacci has 144 pairs of rabbits.

1st month=1

2nd month = 1

3rd month= 1+1=2

4th month=2+1=3

5th month= 3+2=5

6th month =5+3 =8

7th month= 8+5 =13

8th month = 13+8 =21

9th month =21+13 =34

10th month= 34+21 =55

11th month =55+34=89

12th month=89+55=144

13th month =144+89=233

14th month= 233+144= 377

15th month=377+233= 610

16th month = 610+377=987

17th month =987+610 =1597

18th month =1597+987 =2584

19th Month =2584+1597= 4181

20th month =4281 + 1597= 6765

21st month =6765+ 4181= 10946

22nd month= 6765+10946= 17711

23rd month= 17711+ 10946= 28657

24th month = 28657+ 17711= 46368

Therefore side length of the field at the end of 2 years is 46368

Which would be more likely to carry out endocytosis: a white blood cell engulfing foreign materials or a cell that excretes horm
Irina-Kira [14]

A white blood cell engulfing foreign materials is more likely to carry out Endocytosis.

Explanation:

  • Endocytosis is the process by which a cell takes up a macromolecule into is cytoplasm by forming a vessicle.
  • In the question two cases are given, both the cases involve the formation of membrane bound  vessicle but in different ways.
  • The excretion of hormones involves the movement of molecule outside the cytoplasm. This process is exocytosis.
  • The engulfment of an antigen by WBC involves taking up of molecule within the cell so that it can be killed and digested. Thus in  this case  Endocytosis is more likely to occur..

DNA is to deoxyribose as DNA?
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Deoxyribose, found in DNA, is a modified sugar, lacking one oxygen atom (hence the name "deoxy"). This difference of one oxygen atom is important for the enzymes that recognize DNA and RNA, because it allows these two molecules to be easily distinguished inside organisms.

Which information is needed to construct a geomagnetic time scale?
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

the magnetic direction of rocks along the surface of Earth and the age of rocks along the surface of Earth

Explanation:

The earth's magnetic field or geomagnetic field is believed to originate from the movement of molten iron and nickel in the outer core.

During a period in which the earth magnetic field is normal, crystallising magnetic minerals in magma records the orientation of the prevailing geomagnetic field. At other times when the field reverses and the magnetic field orientation changes, magnetic minerals in cooling magma stores this record.

To create a geomagnetic time scale, geologists can assign absolute ages to the records of these paleomagnetic anomalies which are the reversals. The rock is dated using radiometric techniques and each period of reversal is ascribed an absolute geologic age. Therefore, the magnetic direction of rocks along the surface of Earth and the age of rocks along the surface of Earth helps to build the geomagnetic time scale of the earth.
