_______ are the small sacs that are the site of gas exchange in the lungs. In addition to being an airway, the _______ is the lo

cation of the human vocal cords. Cilia in cells along the trachea and nasal passages secrete _______ which traps dirt and particles from the air. Air is only approximately 21% oxygen. The majority of air is ______. The medulla oblongata controls the contraction and relaxation of the _______, causing the lungs to inflate and deflate during breathing. Explain the process of breathing. Begin with inhalation and describe the route that the air takes to the lungs, and what happens when the air reaches the lungs. Include in your description the terms: mouth, nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, lungs, alveoli, carbon dioxide, oxygen, and capillaries

1. D

2. C

3. B

4. A

5. Alveoli

6. larynx

7. mucus

8. nitrogen

9. diaphragm

10. Air enters the body through the mouth or nose and passes through the pharynx and larynx. Then it travels down the trachea and branches through the bronchi into the two lungs. In the lungs, small alveoli are the site of gas exchange where carbon dioxide diffuses into the lungs for exhalation, while oxygen from the air diffuses into the capillaries surrounding the alveoli to be pumped throughout the body.

<span>I believe that the pattern that would be expected is both 14 N and 15 N, this is because the DNA was replicated in a conservative manner. Semi conservative replication would produce two copies that each contained one of the original strands and one new strand, while Conservative replication would leave the two original template DNA strands together in a double helix and would produce a copy composed of two new strands containing all of the new DNA base pairs</span>

What is the principle for dating materials using radioactive isotopes
nevsk [136]

It is based on a comparison between the observed abundance of a naturally occurring radioactive isotope and its decay products, using known decay rates.

<h3>How are isotopes used in radioactive dating?</h3>

These isotopes decay within the rocks according to their half-life rates, and by choosing the fit minerals and measuring the relative amounts of parent and daughter isotopes in them, the date at which the rock crystallized can be determined.

Thus, It is based on a comparison between the observed abundance of a naturally occurring radioactive isotope.

A biochemist isolated and purified molecules needed for dna replication. Whne she added some dna, replictation occursd but the d
liberstina [14]

Answer:

She left Ligase enzyme out of the mixture.

Explanation:

DNA replication is the process of formation of new molecules of DNA from the existing one. This process occurs in semiconservative way i.e each new strand consist of one newly synthesised strand and one old parent strand that act as template for the formation of new strand. replication on one strand occurs continuously from 5 prime to 3 prime but on other strands it occurs discontinuously from 5 prime to 3 prime because DNA polymerase moves only in one direction from 5 prime to 3 prime. Hence in discontinuous strands gaps remained. These gaps are filled by Ligase enzyme.

Requirements for DNA replication:

DNA replications needs

Primers

DNA Polymerase enzyme

DNA helicase enzyme

Single nucleotide binding protein

dNTPs

and Ligase enzyme.

Correct choice:

She left Ligase enzyme out of the mixture.

Mitosis can occur in both haploid and diploid cells, but meiosis cannot occur in haploid cells. Why not?.
allochka39001 [22]

Mitosis can occur in both haploid and diploid cells because it is equational division where the number of chromosomes remain the same after division. But meiosis cannot happen in haploid cells because it is reductional division and haploid cells do not have any extra copy of chromosomes to be halved.

Mitosis is the cell division where the number of chromosomes do not change after cell division. It usually happens in the somatic cells of the body. Cancer cells also undergo mitosis

Meiosis is the cell division where the number of chromosomes are halved after cell division. The process of meiosis occurs in two phases: meiosis I and meiosis II. The germ cells of the body undergo meiosis.
