6. In a Bio 207 lab you determine that the cost of transport for two fish from different species is 1 kJ/km for fish one, and 10

kJ/km for fish two. Provide an estimate of the swimming speed of each fish assuming that a) both fish have the same metabolic rate; b) fish two has a metabolic rate 10 times higher than the metabolic rate of fish one; and c) fish one has a metabolic rate that is 100 times smaller than the metabolic rate of fish two. Note that the ratio of metabolic rate to speed defines the cost of transport in units of energy/distance.

Answer:

b) fish two has a metabolic rate 10 times higher than the metabolic rate of fish one.

Explanation:

The fish one covers 1 kilometer distance by using 1 kilo Joule of energy while on the other hand, fish two covers consumes 10 kilo Joules of energy for covering the same distance i.e. one kilometer. This means that fish two has a metabolic rate 10 times higher than the metabolic rate of fish one. This high metabolic rate may be due to the higher mass of the fish two which needs more energy for the movement to cover distance of one kilometer.

Which far-field imaging methods can extend the diffraction limited resolution to a smaller value?
topjm [15]

Answer:

Deterministic super-resolution: The most commonly used emitters in biological microscopy, fluorophores, show a nonlinear response to excitation, and this nonlinear response can be exploited to enhance resolution, such as STED, GSD, RESOLFT and SSIM.

Stochastic super-resolution: The chemical complexity of many molecular light sources gives them a complex temporal behavior, which can be used to make several close-by fluorophores emit light at separate times and thereby become resolvable in time, such as Super-resolution optical fluctuation imaging (SOFI) and all single-molecule localization methods (SMLM) such as SPDM, SPDMphymod, PALM, FPALM, STORM and dSTORM.

Which of the following is TRUE regarding meiosis?
Elden [556K]
C

Explanation


Meiosis 2 is similar to mitosis because it separates the chromosomes to have sister chromatids in each cell. In both processes, you are separating the chromosome and dividing the cell to make 2 cells out of 1 (the only difference is that in meiosis, you're doing that for 2 cells to get 4).

Explain the method scientists use to study how Earth’s atmosphere and climate have changed during the past million years.
Stella [2.4K]
Examining fossil and pollen records Extracting deep ice cores from glaciers and the polar ice caps Examining growth rings on trees All of these methods provide clues to past temperature, precipitation, and wind patterns as well as the chemical make-up of the atmosphere.
