The type of learning that the young sea otter used to be able to perform this task is social learning.
This means that the young otter learned what it is supposed to do from its surroundings - and what is surrounding it is its society of other otters. It is social learning because the otter didn't learn on its own that it needs to break open shells in order to eat what is inside, but rather it saw what the other otters were doing and thus learned it.
Yes that statement is true
Answer:
The two strands are held together by hydrogen bonds between the bases, with adenine forming a base pair with thymine, and cytosine forming a base pair with guanine.
Explanation:
Answer:
a.) Hydrogen peroxide are highly reactive oxygen compounds used as an antiseptic
b.) Used in treating punctured wounds due to the nature of the wound which helps microorganisms to thrive.
c.) Fizzing associated with hydrogen peroxide use is due to presence of the enzyme catalase.
Explanation:
Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical compound which is made up of two hydrogen atoms and two oxygen atoms. It is powerful oxidizing agent which takes part in biological reactions. This is possible as it can remove electrons from other biological molecules which can damage other cellular components. It is used an an antiseptic to reduce infection because, being a powerful oxidizing agent, it has the ability to react with cell wall of these microorganisms through removal of electrons thereby causing damage to it.
Punctured wounds are narrow in structure which allows obligate anaerobic organisms to thrive because of reduced oxygen flow in the wound. Hydrogen peroxide can effectively eliminate these organisms which are most likely to cause infection in that site because they lack the enzyme called catalase.
Catalase is an enzyme which is present in living cells except obligate anaerobic organisms. It converts hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen. The fizzing noticed by Jill while cleaning the wound with hydrogen peroxide is due to the catalase in Jill's own cells which converts the hydrogen peroxide to water and oxygen. When oxygen is given off, fizzing reactions are seen at the surface of the wound.
