Answer:

a) Scales of pine closes and opens up with the variation in moisture content of air.

b) Cold sunglass meets warm moisture laden air and hence water droplet are suspended on the surface of sunglass.

Explanation:

a) Being a natural hygrometer, pine cone through its physiological activities indicate the presence of humidity in air.

The ridges of the pine consists of scales and the seed is inside it. In a humid environment, the scales absorbs moisture and swell and close the cone. This also prevents the seed from rotting due to excess moisture. With the reduction in moisture content of air, moisture in the  scales of pine cone evaporates and the cone open up.

b) Sunglass gets cold since it is inside the airconditioned temperature of car. When the sunglass is placed outside the car window, moisture laden hot wind strikes the cold sunglass and it suspends its moisture there on the surface of glass as water droplets.

DNA samples should be stored in an airtight containers to prevent contamination true or false
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer: True

Explanation:

DNA is a biological evidence. It is a heredity material which is present in all organisms on earth. The DNA in humans can be taken as sample from nails, bones, blood, skin, hair and other sources.

The DNA samples can be taken so as to establish the identity of the culprit, victim or any one which is associated with crime.

The DNA evidence has applicability as a potent evidence in the court of law. Thus utmost care should be taken to preserve it's integrity until it is analysed and presented in the court of law.

Thus the DNA evidence should be collected and preserved in airtight containers so as to prevent the entry of airborne pathogens like bacteria, virus these can contaminate the sample evidence and can make the evidence not of any use.

erica [24]

Answer:

D. Allosteric activator

Explanation:

In an enzyme, the allosteric site is a site/motif different from the active site, (i.e., the site with catalytic activity) which is able to interact with regulatory effector molecules in order to activate or inhibit enzymatic activity by influencing the tridimensional (3D) structure of the enzyme. An allosteric activator is an effector molecule with the ability to bind to a specific enzyme at a different site than the active site, thereby modifying the shape of the enzyme and increasing the affinity of this enzyme for its substrate. Moreover, Adenosine monophosphate (AMP) is a nucleotide composed of a phosphate group, a sugar ribose, and an Adenine (A) base. This effector molecule (AMP) has shown to allosterically stimulate diverse enzymes in physiological conditions (e.g., AMP-activated protein kinase).

Which structures are found on sponges?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The special cells of the sponge include those that filter sea water; cells that are phagocytic (that engulf and digest food particles); those that form the external 'skin', breathing pores and tubes through which water enters and leaves the body; and those that secrete the mineral and organic skeletons, called spicules and fibres, respectively. Sponges are also unique because nearly all their cells can change function as required (totipotency).
