When placed in tap water, which is a hypotonic environment, animal cells have a higher solute concentration inside of the cell compared to the tap water. ... This, however, is not the case for plant cells which has a strategy to prevent lysis when put in a hypotonic environment. So the answer to your question is D

Read the scenario.
babunello [35]

Answer:

The cyclist’s displacement is +5 m.

Explanation:

We have, A cyclist starts at a position of origin. He takes 3 s to move east to a position of +8 m. He then cycles west to a position of +5 m which takes an additional 2 s.

It is required to find the cyclist’s displacement. Displacement of an object is the shortest path covered by it or it is given by the difference of final to the initial position.

Finally, he cycles west to a position of +5 m. Distance between final and initial position is +5 m.

Hence, the cyclist’s displacement is +5 m.

Which of the following does not represent a common outcome following introduction of foreign DNA into a bacterial cell?Choose on
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

The correct option is A, since if the DNA enters in a circular form it is called a plasmid, and the plasmids upon entering the bacteria self-replicate outside the genetic structure, which gives the bacteria better survival qualities.

Explanation:

Plasmids are generally circular extrachromosomal DNA molecules that replicate and transmit independently of chromosomal DNA, and are normally present in bacteria, archaea, and sometimes in eukaryotic organisms such as yeast. Its size varies from 3 to 10 kb. The number of plasmids can vary, depending on their type, from a single copy to a few hundred per cell. Plasmid vectors allow cloning of exogenous DNA ligands of up to 4 kb since a larger size than this makes cloning in these vectors difficult. The term plasmid was first introduced by the American molecular biologist Joshua Lederberg in 1952. Plasmids can only coexist as one or more copies in each bacterium, due to cell division they can be lost in one of the secreted bacteria.

Cytosine makes up 24% of the nucleotides in a sample of DNA from an organism.
Alchen [17]

Answer:

26%

Explanation:

if cytosine makes up 24%, then guanine also makes up 24%.

add these to get 48%.

subtract that from 100% to get a remaining 52%

then split the 52% between adenine and thymine to tell you that 26% is thymine
