A guy bikes 15 miles in 1 hour, then rests for an hour. Then he bikes 25 in 2 hours. What was his average speed for the trip?

He went 15 miles/hour in the first sequence, and then 12.5 miles/hour (25 miles/2 hours) in the second sequence. If you take into account the hour he rested between segments: 15 miles/hour, 0 miles/hour, and 12.5 miles/hour. So (15+0+12.5)/3 = 9.17 miles/hour is his average. However, if you are not taking into account the whole trip, and only the time he was biking: (15+12.5)/2 = 13.75 miles/hour

Which of the following is/are true?
Softa [21]

Answer: Only Options A, C and E are correct

A) Sympatric speciation is best described as a random event that disrupts the allele frequencies in a population

C) Sympatric speciation does not require geographic isolation.

E) Sympatric speciation can be due to sexual(mate) selection

Explanation:

Sympatric speciation is a random or naturally occurring event whereby organisms of the same species:

> live in the same territory or nearby territories ( i.e not living in isolation)

> DO NOT interbreed, but select a sexual mate from a much diverse territory which results in an uneven gene flow or disruption of alleles among the population of same species of the parents organisms.

Part A If you want to affect chromatin packaging, which amino acid could you mutate to affect both histone acetylation and methy
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

Lysine

Explanation:

lysine residues on the histone tails of the octamer cn be activated by both acetylation and methylation patterns to influence accessibility or silencing of the genes respectiviely. for example, acetylation of H3K27 (histone 3 lysine residue 27) brings about a region of active chromatin allowing access to transcription activity while its trimethylation  will cause silencing of the associated gene at that particular area (no expression of that gene)

Which ecosystem has more biodiversity EXPLAIN!
Gekata [30.6K]
The two richest ecosystems lie in tropical rainforests and coral reefs. On land, tropical rainforests contain many species variation with an abundance of species in bird, mammals, amphibians, and plants. While tropical rainforests occupy only 7 percent of the Earth’s land area, they contain over half of the world’s species. This may be because species richness tends to increase with decreased elevation, increasing solar exposure, and increased precipitation; that is, hot, rainy low-land areas have the most species. In contrast, deserts have low species variation because of low precipitation. On earth, water is majorly important the equation for life. Many of the species are genetically isolated because of habitat size and variation in the build of the land (mountains, equator location, etc) such as seen in the Galapagos islands and the Amazon rainforest, both near and in South America.

Hope this helps!

On a construction site, a worker moves some debris and a bulldozer moves a different pile of debris Which of these best explains
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The correct answer is - they are both systems that are performing similar functions.

Explanation:

In the given question there are two different entities that do a similar kind of work or perform similar functions, however, the systems are different as one system involves the manpower of a worker whereas the other system involves the high power of a bulldozer.

The work is similar but the amount of the work varies as manual work done by a worker is less in comparison to the bulldozer.

How might a gene mutation be silent, with no observable effect on a cell or an organism? A. Codons are complementary to anticodo
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

D. Many amino acids are encoded by multiple codons. A gene mutation that encodes the same amino acid would have no observable effect on the cell or the organism

Explanation:

If gene mutation does not change code (gene still encodes for the same amino acid), the same protein with its function will be produced. This is called synonymous mutation.

Silent mutations might also occur when  codon is altered to produce an amino acid with similar function as previous (e.g. leucine to isoleucine) so that the function of protein is not significantly changed.
