Answer:

A pons structure is a bulbous shape and has two main components - the basis pontis (aka basal/ventral part) and the pontine tegmentum (aka dorsal part). In Psychology the pons is the structure of the brain the acts like the "bridge"(Latin ) for the midbrain and medulla.

A student does an experiment for a science fair to study whether temperature affects the timing of a cricketâ€™s chirps. The stu

nexus9112 [7]

The frequency of chirps increases as the temperature increases. The correct option is B. The chirps occur closer together as the temperature increases.

-------------------------------

<h2>Available data:</h2>

<h3>Data recorded by the student </h3>

Day Temperature Average time between chirps (sec)

1 21 2. 5

2 22 2. 6

3 23 2. 2

4 24 2. 3

5 25 2. 0

6 26 1. 8

7 27 1. 9

8 28 1. 8

9 29 1. 4

10 30 1. 2

11 31 1. 5

12 32 1. 1

In this experiment the student recorded the time in seconds between chirps.

We can see that as the temperature increases, in general, the time between chirps decreases.

At 21ºC the time between chirps is 2.5 seconds

At 26ºC the time between chirps is 1.8 seconds

At 32ºC the time between chirps is 1.1 seconds

According to this information, if the average time between chirps decreases with the temperature increase, we can assume that the frequency of chirps increases as the temperature gets higher.

<h3>Options,</h3>

A) The higher the temperature, the fewer chirps there will be in 10 seconds.

Wrong. The number of chirps in 10 seconds will depend, not only on the frequency but also on how long the chirps last. Since the student did not record the time of chirps, we can not make this conclusion.

B) The chirps occur closer together as the temperature increases.

True. The chirps increase in frequency as the temperature increases, so they occur closer together.

C) The chirps become farther apart as the temperature increases.

Wrong. We can see how the time between chirps decreases as temperature increases, meaning that they are closer not farther.

D) There is no relationship between temperature and the time between chirps.

Wrong. If we make a graph we will see the tendency and the relationship between chirps and temperature.

Graphs usually explain the relationship between variables. In this example, the relationship would be inverse.

Answer:

Genes coding for proteins involved in chiasma formation.

Explanation:

Chiasma is the connecting link between two non sister chromatids from homologous chromosomes. At chiasma chromosomal crossover takes place in which the genetic material is exchanged between the chromatids. During meiosis aneuploidy occurs if chiasma is absent or impaired due to a mutation in genes encoding for proteins involved in chiasma formation.

Aneuploidy is characterised by presence of abnormal number of chromosomes in cells. They can be 45 or 47 in number apart from the usual 46. Due to impaired chiasma, chromosome pair fails to separate and is passed on to the egg or sperm as it is hence there is one gamete with an extra chromosome and one gamete with a less chromosome. Aneuploidy can result in many genetic disorders like three copies of chromosome 21 can result in Down syndrome.

Match the given behaviors of water with their correct rationale. Use your observations about water and the reading you have done

kap26 [50]

Answer:

Heat energy first breaks hydrogen bonds before it increases movement of water molecules - High specific heat

As water freezes, the hydrogen bonds form a crystalline lattice which keeps the molecules at a consistent distance leading to a density lesser than liquid water- Ice floats on water

A large amount of energy is needed to convert liquid water, where the molecules are tied by hydrogen bonds, to water vapor, where they are not - High heat of vaporization

Hydrogen bonds between water molecules keep the molecules "sticking together." - Cohesion

Explanation:

Water is a molecule composed of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. Water is a very unique substance with properties that are unexpected of a molecule its size. Some of the unique properties of water include:

Its high polar nature, High-specific heat, High heat of vaporization, the lower density of ice. One of the reason for these unique properties is strong cohesive forces between water molecules.

Cohesion: Hydrogen bonds between water molecules keep the molecules "sticking together."

Polarity: Water molecules are polar, with partial positive charges on the hydrogens, a partial negative charge on the oxygen because oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen. As a result, water is a good polar solvent.

High specific heat: Heat energy first breaks hydrogen bonds before it increases movement of water molecules.

Lower density of ice: As water freezes, the hydrogen bonds form a crystalline lattice which keeps the molecules at a consistent distance leading to a density lesser than liquid water, therefore, ice floats on water

High heat of vaporization: A large amount of energy is needed to convert liquid water, where the molecules are tied by hydrogen bonds, to water vapor, where they are not.
