Guess why most leaves are wide and thin. ​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Due to their broad surface areas, green leaves can absorb more sunlight at a given time, and due to the thinness of the leaves, the light energy can easily penetrate the leaf surface and be trapped by the chloroplasts. This makes photosynthesis efficient. Therefore, green leaves are thin and broad.

Ammonia oxidizing bacteria utilize ammonia as an electron source and use oxygen as a terminal electron acceptor. In this form of aerobic respiration, the ammonia is getting _____.

Answers

Answer:

oxidized

Explanation:

Oxidation is defined as a loss of electrons, increase in oxidation number, the addition of oxygen, or the removal of nitrogen. On the other hand, the reduction is defined as the gain of electrons, decrease in oxidation number, the removal of oxygen, or the addition of hydrogen.

Ammonia being utilized as an electron source means that the compound is an electron donor in the redox reaction while oxygen is acting as an electron acceptor. Hence, in this form of respiration, ammonia is getting oxidized while oxygen is getting reduced.

Suppose a researcher successfully produced a membrane composed of saturated triglycerides rather than from phospholipids. What characteristics would you expect the saturated triglyceride membrane to have?
A. hydrophilic molecules would easily pass through the membrane.
B. hydrophobic molecules would be attracted to the membrane.
C. the membrane would be fluid at room temperature
D. the saturated triglycerides would not form a bilayer.

Answers

Answer:

B. hydrophobic molecules would be attracted to the membrane.

D. the saturated triglycerides would not form a bilayer.

Explanation:

Triglycerides are molecules composed of a higher proportion of saturated fatty acid chains where carbons are connected by single bonds. Triglycerides are hydrophobes, i.e., they are nonpolar hydrophobic molecules. In this case, it is expected that hydrophobic molecules, including triglycerides, would be attracted through hydrophobic interactions (between water and hydrophobes). Triglycerides contribute to maintain the structure of the cell membranes by forming a lipid bilayer. Unlike phospholipids, triglycerides lack a polar group (phospholipids contain charged phosphate groups), and therefore triglycerides are unable to orient themselves in order to form a bilayer.

1. If the DNA is carrying a silent mutation, what will be the impact it will have on the organism?

Answers

Essentially, a silent mutation is a change in codon sequence that codes for the same amino acid, resulting in no phenotypic, or physical change. The over all result is no difference and no gene expression. Silent mutations can provide the advantage of genetic diversity, although otherwise having no affect on and organism.

In the Cori cycle, the release of energy from_________ the process of anaerobic glycolysis.

Answers

Answer:

The glucose conversion to PYRUVATE opens anaerobic and aerobic metabolic pathways. VITAMIN B NIACIN in its role as a coenzyme during glycolysis, escorts hydrogen and electrons to the electron transport chain and the TCA cycle. In the Cori cycle, the release of energy from ATP converts lactate to glucose and returns the glucose molecule to the muscles through the process of Anaerobic Glycolysis.

Explanation:

In metabolism, glycolysis is defined as the splitting of the glucose molecule to form two molecules of pyruvic acid. It is the first main metabolic pathway in cellular respiration for the production of energy in form of ATP(Adenosine triphosphate).

In most cells, cellular respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen. This is known as AEROBIC RESPIRATION which produces the largest number of ATP. Energy can also be gotten by breaking down of glucose in the complete absence of oxygen. This is known as ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION.

The next stage in the degradation of glucose is a two step conversion of the two pyruvic acid molecules from glycolysis into two molecules of acetyl coenzyme A( acetyl - CoA). This occurs in the TCA( tricarboxylic acid) or Krebs cycle.

VITAMIN B NIACIN in its role as a coenzyme during glycolysis, escorts hydrogen and electrons to the electron transport chain and the TCA cycle. Coenzyme A is a derivative of vitamin B which combines with pyruvic acid to form acetyl CoA , 2 molecules of carbon dioxide and 4 molecules of hydrogen in TCA cycle.

In Cori Cycle, (which is also called Lactic acid cycle), energy released from ATP is used to convert lactate to glucose. This is to prevent increased lactic acid in the blood during anaerobic conditions in the muscles.

I NEED HELP PLZ ITS DUE TODAY. The sun produces a great amount of energy with sound and lights. We enjoy the sun's light and heat waves on Earth, but cannot hear any sound of the sun. Explain this phenomenon in terms of mechanical waves and electromagnetic waves. (10 Points)​

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

First of all, we have to know the difference between a mechanical wave and an electromagnetic wave.

A mechanical wave requires a material medium for propagation. It does not travel through space. An electromagnetic wave does not require a material medium for propagation and it can travel through space.

Light and heat are electromagnetic waves. They both belong to the electromagnetic spectrum. On the other hand, sound is a mechanical wave.

While heat and light can travel through space, sound can not because it is a mechanical wave. Sound has to pass through gas molecules and there is no gas in outer space.

Hence, we enjoy the sun's light and heat waves on Earth, but cannot hear any sound of the sun.

Complete question:

This cladogram shows the evolutionary relationships among some mammals based on  homologous structures.

(You will find the cladogram in the attached files)

Which statement is supported by this cladogram?

A Hippopotamuses are more closely related to cows than to javelinas.

B Toothed whales are more closely related to mouse deer than to hippopotamuses.

C Javelinas and pigs are more closely related than baleen whales and toothed whales.

D Cows and mouse deer are more closely related than javelinas and pigs.

Answer:

A Hippopotamuses are more closely related to cows than to javelinas.

Explanation:  

A cladogram is a branched diagram of characteristics shared by the organisms of a group, that represents the most probable evolutive history of the linage. Cladograms reflect the phylogenetic relationships among groups through phylogenetic trees.

In the phylogenetic tree, the taxonomic groups of interest are located in the extremes of the lines called branches. The ramification point, which is also called "node" or divergence point, represents the location of the most recent common ancestor.

The common ancestor position will determine how related are two species. If they have a recent common ancestor, they are closely related to each other. On the other hand, if the common ancestor is not recent and is located far away in the tree, then the two species will be less related to each other.  

A Hippopotamuses are more closely related to cows than to javelinas. TRUE. Hippopotamuses share a common more recent ancestor with cows than with javelinas. This means that the hyppopotamus is more related to cows than to javelinas. The arrows in the cladogram (attached file) show the positions of the common ancestor shared by Hippopotamuses and Cows, and the common ancestor shared by Hippopotamuses and Javelinas.  

B Toothed whales are more closely related to mouse deer than to hippopotamuses. FALSE. Tooth whales are more related to the hyppopotamus. Their common ancestor is more recent than the common ancestor between toothed whales and mouse deer. The arrows in the cladogram (attached file) show the positions of the common ancestors.

C Javelinas and pigs are more closely related than baleen whales and toothed whales. FALSE. They are equally related.  

D Cows and mouse deer are more closely related than javelinas and pigs.

FALSE. They are equally related.
