Carlo is wondering what causes plants to grow at different rates. Carlo's hypothesis is "Plants will grow more when the day is l
Sphinxa [80]

Options for the question have not been given. They are as follows:

type of soil

type of plants

exposure to sunlight

method for measuring the growth

Answer:

exposure to sunlight

Explanation:

A scientific experiment has an experimental group and a control group. Control group is included to omit any error in results due to the factors other than the variable factor. Experimental group is the one exposed to different levels of the variable factor.

Here, Carlo wants to determine the the effect of day length on plants' growth. The test variable here is thus the duration of sunlight. In experimental group, this duration will be changed to determine its effect. In control group it will be kept constant so that results from other factors can be excluded from the observed experimental result.

A team of scientists splices a human gene into bacterial plasmids. The human gene codes for insulin. Then the scientists use the
Inessa [10]

Answer: D. The genes for antibiotic resistance help the transformed bacteria survive in their environment.

Explanation:

First and foremost, we should note that plasmids used in the delivery of DNA typically consists of genes which helps in antibiotic resistance.

Based on the question given, we should note that the genes for antibiotic resistance help the transformed bacteria survive in their environment. This is because cells that have been treated with plasmid are able to survive and grow compared to those that have not been treated with plasmid which are eventually killed by the antibiotic.

A recent study of the marine hawksbill turtle's stomach contents revealed that sponges constitute a major portion of their diet.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

These structures that protect the sponges from most predators, but not turtles, are spicules.

Explanation:

Sponges <em>skeleton</em> is composed of <em>calcium carbonate and siliceous</em> micro-structures called <u>spicules</u>. Their morphology is so varied that it is used in taxonomy for identification and classification.

There are different kinds of spicules:

-         <em>Monoaxonic spicule</em>: needle-shaped, straights or curves

-         <em>Tetraxonic spicules:</em> they have four prolongations

-         <em>Triaxonic or Hexaxonic spicules</em>

-         <em>Poliaxonic spicules </em>

Two terms can be applied to any of these spicules kinds:

-         <em>Megaspicules</em>: They are elongated and compose the main architecture of the sponge skeleton

-         <em>Microspicules</em>: Variable in shape and size, with ancillary functions

Sponges have few predators thank to the spicule structures and their high toxicity. Many of them are capable of perforating soft tissues and producing urticant substances.

Describe all muscle tissues, including cell shape, layers, intercellular connections,
zmey [24]
<h2>Description of muscle tissues. </h2>

Explanation:

There are three types of muscle tissue are cardiac, smooth, and skeletal.  

1. <u>Cardiac muscle tissue:</u><u> </u>It is located in the walls of the heart.

They appear striated.  

Control is involuntary.

Function: To pump blood through the blood vessels in your body.

2. <u>Smooth muscle tissue:</u><u> </u>It is located in walls of hollow visceral organs, except the heart.

They appear spindle-shaped.

Control is involuntary.

Function: To move food through the digestive tract.  

To regulates air flow in lungs.

3. <u>Skeletal muscle tissue:</u> It occur in muscles which are attached to the skeleton.  

They appear striated.

Control is voluntary.

Function: To support the body.

It makes bones and other body parts move.

<u>Cell shape :</u> There are different shapes of cells which are as follows:

1. Squamous 2.Cuboidal 3. Columnar 4. Polygonal  5. Stellate

6. Spheroid 7. Discoid 8. Fusiform 9. Fibrous.

<u>Muscular layer:</u> The muscular layer is present in many organs in the vertebrate body.

It is responsible for peristaltic movement in body.

There are two layers of muscle.

1. Inner 2. Outer layer.  

<u>Inner layer:</u> The muscle of the inner layer is arranged in circular rings around the tract.

<u>Outer layer:</u> the muscle of the outer layer is arranged longitudinally.  

<u>Intercellular connections or junctions: </u>These are the structures which provide adhesion and communication between cells.  

There are mainly three types of junctions:

1. <u>Tight junctions: </u><u> </u>It help to stop substances  from leaking across a tissue.

2. <u>Adhering junctions:</u> It perform the  function of cementing so as to  keep neighbouring cells together.

3. <u>Gap junctions:</u> It facilitate the cells to  communicate with each other by connecting the cytoplasm of adjoining  cells, for rapid transfer of ions, small molecules and sometimes big molecules.
