Lantern fish live in the middle ocean depths where there is no sunlight. which example is a response to this dark environment? q
densk [106]

Answer:

A lighting producing organ to attract mates and prey.

Explanation:

Camouflage would do very little for a fish that spends most of it's day in the middle of a dark ocean. Mimicking other deep sea creatures would actually be more of a disadvantage than an advantage, as the sounds would be more likely to scare away potential prey, rather than attract them. A light however, would attract the prey's curiousity and urge them to check out the light.

Describe how energy and matter move through the environment under both aerobic and anaerobic conditions.
elixir [45]

<span>1.    </span>Describe how energy and matter move through the environment under <span>
A. Aerobic conditions -Photosynthesis and Respiration
-After photosynthesis occurs, the plant enters the carbon cycle. The carbon cycle uses the by-product of photosynthesis which is carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide combined with water yields glucose (used as food) and oxygen that is released back into the atmosphere. During photosynthesis, respiration occurs which uses the oxygen and glucose to yield carbon dioxide and water which starts the carbon cycle.

B. Anaerobic conditions Muscle respiration 
-This process does not require the use of oxygen.
Glucose stored in the body is used during muscle respiration to produce lactic acid and energy that is used for movement. </span>

<span>2.    </span><span> What is chemosynthesis?</span><span>
<span>- Chemosynthesis relies on chemical reactions to produce food. Inorganic compounds such as hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, and oxygen enter into a chemical reaction that yields sugar, sulfur, and water, Chemosynthesis occurs most commonly in deep-sea ecosystems where the sun cannot penetrate. </span></span>

<span>3.    </span>How do chemosynthetic organisms get energy?

<span>-      </span><span>Chemosynthetic organisms make use of chemicals found on the seafloor or on the sea environment. They convert these chemicals through a reaction that yields glucose (which the plants use for food) and sulfur as by-products. In turn, other organisms will use the sulfur by-product to initiate another chemosynthetic reaction to create food.</span>

Which of the following investigators was (were) responsible for the following discovery? In DNA from any species, the amount of
Zarrin [17]

Answer :Erwin Chargaff   a Biochemist

Explanation:

He formulated the base paring of double helix of DNA. He reasoned that since the percentage of four  DNA  bases are of this proportions in human;

                                  Adenine=30.9% and Thymine =29.4%;

                                  Guanine=19.9% and Cytosine =19.8%

Then,  the amount of adenine will always be equal to thymine,

And the amount of Guanine equals to cytosine based on this percentages of distribution.  

(Adenine and Guanine are large, molecule of Purines, while thymine and Cytosine are Pyrimidine)  

 

He concluded (although scientist believed, he did not explicitly stated this) that this should be the base paring patterns in DNA molecule. This is the first Chargaff Rule.

His second rule is that the DNA composition, in the relative amount of the four bases Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine and Guanine varies in proportion from one organisms to another. And this is the basis of molecular diversity.
