Answer:
-What types of toxins were found in the waters of the Lower Passaic Superfund site?
DDT and agent orange were found in the waters of the Lower Passaic Superfund site.
-How were some fish able to survive PCB levels thousands of times higher than sensitive fish can withstand?
in some tolerant fish, the trigger for the changes that can be caused by PCB levels are can be turned off which allows some fish to survive levels of PCB thousands of times higher than the levels affecting sensitive fish.
-What is the advantage of a large population for rapid evolution?
The advantage of rapid evolution is that the animals can survive and not get killed off.
-Do you think all species would be able to evolve adaptations to help them survive pollutants? Why or why not?
I don't think that all fish can get speedy evolutions like the killfish did because researchers think that they got a rare mutation which helped them survive. However as researchers say, in smaller populations with less diversity the chances that a rare mutation might happen is small.
-What will likely happen to these toxin-adapted fish if the waters are eventually cleaned up?
Once the water becomes clean, a tolerant fish with the mutation won't do as well as a sensitive fish would do.

Answer:
Explanation:
White blood cells (WBCs) are specialized to respond to antigen and produce antibodies as well as undergo phagocytosis in response to toxic stimuli.
WBCs are part of immune system and there are five different kinds with specialized features.
In order to make a cell model, it is best to use a muscle cell and a nerve cell or neuron: there are pronounced structural differences and those are present throughout animal kingdom
Lower animals ( such as insects, worms etc. ) have different immune system, however, they do have typical neuron and a muscle cell/skin cell (fibroblast). Such cell models are likely to be easy, distinct and bring you good grades without going through much complication and confusions of various organ systems and animal models.
Which organelle is most likely to be found in both Archaea and Bacteria and why?
Answer : Both use ribosomes to synthesize proteins.
Explanation : The ribosomes of bacteria and archaea are found floating in the cytoplasm, and in both cases their main function is the synthesis of proteins.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
What happens during DNA replication?
How is DNA replicated? Replication occurs in three major steps: the opening of the double helix and separation of the DNA strands, the priming of the template strand, and the assembly of the new DNA segment. During separation, the two strands of the DNA double helix uncoil at a specific location called the origin.
Explanation:
The correct answer is protein.
Protein being the macro molecule is involved in almost every function of the body. Some of the important functions of the protein in the body are given below.
- Like our nails and hair are made of keratin protein.
- All the enzymes that is involved in the metabolic reactions of the body are protein.
- As like carbohydrate and fat, protein has no reservoir in the body so it is taken by the body and is utilized by the body without being stored.
