Answer:
Subduction is the submerging of one plate under another hence can only occur in convergent boundaries where plates are colliding head on with each other.
Explanation:
Divergent boundary- plates moving away from each other
Transform boundary- plates 'sliding' across each other
Answer:
D. all of these answers are correct
Explanation:
Actin binding proteins are responsible for the regulation of cytoskeletal microfilaments.
Actin binding proteins have the function to
1. Maintain the population of actin monomers,
2. regulate the polymerization of filaments
3. bind to and block the growing ends of actin filaments
4. assembly actin
5. bind to the sides of actin filaments
7. cross-link actin filaments
Answer:
The correct order is dehydration, embed in wax, cut into sections, staining
Explanation:
There are certain proceedings needed to obtain stained sections of vegetable or animal tissues for their microscope observations.
These steps are:
- Obtention of the material: The tissue is cut to an adequate size.
- Fixation: When tissues are extracted from the organism, they suffer autolysis and putrefaction, so they need to be fixated in order to keep their cells in the best state possible. Fixation involves preserving the original morphological and molecular characteristics of the tissue. Fixation avoids autolysis, putrefaction, distortion, and retraction of cells and the tissue that could affect its volume or morphology.
- Dehydration. Once fixated, the fixator must be eliminated and the tissue is dehydrated by using a gradual series of solutions with alcohol in ascendant concentrations. Dehydration must be gradual to avoid tissue deformation.
- Inclusion. To obtain thin cuts that can be observed under the optic microscope, the tissues must be included in a consistent, firm substance, that might be either hydrophilic or hydrophobic. A hydrophobic medium is paraffin wax, that provides hardness and plasticity.
- Cut. The tissue included in wax must be cut in slides or sections thin enough to allow the diffusion and penetration of light. A microtome is used to perform these cuts. When using paraffine for tissue inclusion, the cuts are about 5 to 20 micrometers of thickness.
- Stain. Once the cuts are performed, paraffin wax must be eliminated. This can be done by using an organic solvent. Then the tissue must be stained. Hematoxylin and Eosin are the most common dyes. Animal tissues in general do not have any natural color, so they need to be stained to be observed.
Answer:
grow longer
Explanation:
In a long bone, the epiphyseal is the growing region. In young bones, bone formation occurs in a layer of hyaline cartilage. The epiphyseal plate forms cartilage on the epiphyseal end. Cartilage is calcified on the diaphyseal side, and the diaphysis lengthens.
Answer:
1. Define a Question to Investigate
As scientists conduct their research, they make observations and collect data. The observations and data often lead them to ask why something is the way it is. Scientists pursue answers to these questions in order to continue with their research. Once scientists have a good question to investigate, they begin to think of ways to answer it.
2. Make Predictions
Based on their research and observations, scientists will often come up with a hypothesis. A hypothesis is a possible answer to a question. It is based on: their own observations, existing theories, and information they gather from other sources. Scientists use their hypothesis to make a prediction, a testable statement that describes what they think the outcome of an investigation will be.
3. Gather Data
Evidence is needed to test the prediction. There are several strategies for collecting evidence, or data. Scientists can gather their data by observing the natural world, performing an experiment in a laboratory, or by running a model. Scientists decide what strategy to use, often combining strategies. Then they plan a procedure and gather their data. They make sure the procedure can be repeated, so that other scientists can evaluate their findings.
4. Analyze the Data
Scientists organize their data in tables, graphs, or diagrams. If possible, they include relevant data from other sources. They look for patterns that show connections between important variables in the hypothesis they are testing.
5. Draw Conclusions
Based on whether or not their prediction came true, scientists can then decide whether the evidence clearly supports or does not support the hypothesis. If the results are not clear, they must rethink their procedure. If the results are clear, scientists write up their fi ndings and results to share with others. The conclusions they draw usually lead to new questions to pursue.
