A body cell has been growing and synthesizing proteins. In the nucleus of this body cell, DNA replication is taking place, and a

copy of the cell's genetic material is copied. Which of the following is the best conclusion you can make about the life cycle of this cell?

The best conclusion you can make about the life cycle of this cell is that the cell is in the S phase of interphase and will move next to the G2 phase.

S phase (Synthesis Phase) is the phase of the cell cycle in which all of the chromosomes (DNA) are replicated within the nucleus. During this phase, the DNA is effectively doubled as each chromosome contains two sister chromatids. After the S phase, the cell enters the G2 phase where various proteins (such as microtubules) are synthesized.

Describe how compartmentalization increases the efficiency of a cell and an organism.
antoniya [11.8K]

Compartmentalization of the cell means that there are structures inside the cell (within the cytosol) called organelles (nucleus, Golgi apparatus, endoplasmatic reticulum..) which are usually membrane-enclosed regions. Compartmentalization increases the efficiency of many subcellular processes by concentrating the molecules to a specific space within the cell. Each membrane-enclosed organelle has the characteristic position in the cytosol and specialized function in the cell.

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:                  

  • Because the Earth is tilted on its rotational axis, both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres experience seasons. As the Earth revolves around the Sun, the angle at which sunlight hits each of these hemispheres changes. The Sun appears <u>at its highest point</u> in the sky and for a <u>brief</u> period of time each day during summer than it does during winter.

What type of ecosystem will be harmed by flushing chemicals down the drain
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Oxygen Depletion

Explanation:

In addition to the eutrophication of water bodies, wastewater effluents also contribute to another process of deoxygenation. The biological (bacterial) breakdown of organic solids in the effluent also consumes dissolved oxygen – the biological oxygen demand (BOD). In addition, the degradation of chemicals in the effluent removes oxygen from the water through chemical reactions – the chemical oxygen demand (COD).

As was previously mentioned, the loss of dissolved oxygen in the water can result in serious immediate, short-term, or long-term consequences to aquatic life. Fish survival is particularly affected by low oxygen levels. Decreased disease resistance, reduced growth, altered swimming behaviour, feeding, migration, and reproduction, increased threat of predation, and even rapid death are some of the effects of low dissolved oxygen concentrations.

Low oxygen levels can also alter the kinds of species present in the ecosystem. With a change in food supply, some populations of species decrease, while others increase. Fish such as whitefish, walleye, and pike may disappear, while bottom-feeding fish such as carp may increase in number.

How do scientists organize the major events of Earth's history?
erik [133]

Answer: They divide it on eons.

Explanation:

They can see it from geologic strata and the fossil record. Major volcanic events altering the Earth's environment and causing extinctions may have occurred 10 times in the past 3 billion years. Different eons have different animal and plant life. (eg. trilobites)
