Answer:

The correct answer would be C. the weakened viruses promote the production of antibodies.

The administration of a weakened or attenuated microorganism or antigen is termed as vaccination.

It leads to the production of a primary immune response by which body's B cells produce antibodies and memory cells.  

In later life, whenever the body is encountered with same microorganism or antigen, the memory cells are capable of recognizing it which leads to the generation of the quicker and high-intensity immune response.  

Consequently, our immune system could easily defeat the pathogen and prevent the occurrence of the disease.

For each cross, describe whether genetics or temperature determines the sex of progeny produced from eggs incubated at 35 degree
goldenfox [79]

<u>Answer and Explanation</u>:

In reptiles, there are two mechanisms of sex determination:

-Genetic mechanisms, determined at the fertilization moment

-Environmental mechanisms, which are temperature-dependent.

Temperature is an environmental factor that affects different processes in organisms at a molecular level, biochemical level, or physiological level. In reptiles such as lizards, snakes, turtles, crocodiles, among other, temperature influences their embryonary development, their growth, daily activities, reproduction rate, sex determination, and etc.

In lizards, it occurs that whenever eggs are incubated at low temperatures, between 22 º and 27ºC, they produce a higher percentage of males, while eggs exposed to higher temperatures, 30ºC and above, produce more females. There are only a few degrees of temperature at which exposed eggs produce males and females equally.

The importance of knowing the mechanism of organisms´ sex determination lies in how climate change may be affecting wild populations due to fluctuations in temperature.

In the exposed example, the first cross between ZZ males and ZW females, genetics is the mechanism that determines the sex of progeny produced from eggs incubated at 24 and 35 degrees celsius. While in the second cross between ZZmales and ZZ females, temperature determines the sex of progeny produced from eggs incubated at 24 and 35 degrees celsius. This is, eggs exposed to temperatures below 28ºC will produce only males, so there won't be any female in the progeny. But eggs incubated at 30ºC and over will produce females, as shown in the table.

Consider two different traits in mice affecting tail length and fur color. A two-factor cross was made involving true-breeding m
Stells [14]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

Null hypothesis: The two genes are independently assorting and therefore, are not linked to each other.

Let A represents the allele for tail length and B for fur color. Long-tail A is dominant over short tail a while brown fur B is dominant over white fur b.

For the first cross involving true-breeding mice:

    AABB   x   aabb

F1         AaBb (long tails and brown fur)

For the second cross:

      AaBb   x   aabb

4 AaBb - Long-tail, brown fur

4 Aabb - Long tail, white fur

4 aaBb - short tail, brown fur

4 aabb - short tail, white fur

Since the phenotypic ratio from the cross is 1:1:1:1, if the null hypothesis was to be true, it means that the expected phenotype ratio should be 1:1:1:1.

In order to test this hypothesis, we use Chi-square:

phenotype                           O            E                 X^2  

Long-tail, brown fur           118          97.5        \frac{(118-97.5)^2}{97.5} = 4.31

Long tail, white fur              77           97.5             4.31

short tail, brown fur             81           97.5              2.79

short tail, white fur              114           97.5              2.79

Total                                                                          14.2

Degree of freedom = 4 - 1 = 3

Critical Chi-square value = 7.815

The calculated Chi-square value is more than the critical value, hence, the null hypothesis is rejected.

Design an experiment where you would determine how quickly lactaid works to break down milk sugar at different temperatures
choli [55]
1. Gather 11 cups and then fill each cup with 5 ounces of whole milk, next is take the first cup to add a known quantity of lactaid. As a control, take another cup and do not add any lactaid. After 1minute, pour a known quantity of Benedicts into cups of milk. Record the color (blue is the least amount of glucose progressing to green, then yellow, orange, red, and brick red/brown). Take another cup of milk and then add the lactaid and wait 5minutes next is add the Benedicks. Record the color, repeat steps 7-10 adding 5minutes each time until there are no cups left (15 minutes, 20, 25,30,35,40,45).
For the last is Graph the data and form conclusions.
