What are the steps in the scientific process to test whether plants need water to survive?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Please find the detailedly explained steps below

Explanation:

Scientific investigation involves the use of the SCIENTIFIC METHOD, which involves series of steps including:

- Making an observation/Asking a question

- Formulating a hypothesis

- Testing the hypothesis

- Analysing the result

- Conclusion

1) Making an observation/Asking a question: An observation is initially made prior to any investigation. In this case, the observation is whether plants need water to survive. A scientific question can be asked by saying DO PLANTS NEED WATER TO SURVIVE?

2) Formulating a hypothesis: After a question has been asked or an observation has been made, a HYPOTHESIS, which is a testable explanation given to solve or answer the problem is given. A hypothesis is usually in an IF, THEN format. A hypothesis concerning the observation can go thus: IF plants are not supplied with water, THEN they will not grow.

3) Testing the hypothesis: In order to test the hypothesis, an experiment is conducted. This experiment is set up in such a way that two group of plants are used. One group receives water (experimental group) while the other doesn't receive water (control group). The water is the INDEPENDENT VARIABLE while the plant growth measured is the DEPENDENT VARIABLE.

4) Analysing the result: The results of the experiment are analysed and computed in an organized way that can be comprehended.

5) Conclusion: This is the point where the hypothesis will be accepted or rejected based on the results of the experiment. For example, in this case, if plants that are not supplied with water grows, the hypothesis will be REJECTED.

Continents collide and destroy fossil evidence

Explanation:

One main challenge in understanding earth's geologic history is that continents collide and destroy fossil evidence.

Fossils are the preserved remains of dead organisms found in rocks. They are very good and useful indicators of the life of an organism. By studying the progression of their evolution, a vivid understanding of the earth's geologic history can be constructed.

Consider what would happen to a diploid plant when genes are destroyed by a mutation.
How many genes would have to be destroyed in a diploid plant for one trait to be lost?

Answers

Answer:

Two, usually

Explanation:

A diploid plant has two copies (alleles) of every gene. If one copy of the gene is destroyed by a mutation, the plant will likely be okay with its other copy, and the trait will still be expressed.

However, some traits require both copies of the gene to be expressed. For example, if one gene is destroyed that means only half the amount of the gene product is produced. If that is not enough protein for the trait to be expressed, then the trait will be lost.

Damage to the highlighted region of the spinal cord results in ________ of the skeletal muscles served by that particular region.

Answers

Answer:

Non-functioning

Explanation:

Non-functioning of skeletal muscles occurs when the spinal cord region is damaged because spinal cord is responsible for sending information in the form of signals. The spinal cord has a network of fiber started from the brain and distributed to all the body is known as neurons. These neurons are responsible for sending instructions to the muscles from brain. If they are damaged, the body parts unable to move and can't perform their particular function.

Answers

Explanation:

The process of cell division by which most of cells divide for growth is called mitosis.

In this process, each cell called mother cell divides to form two identical daughter cells. The daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as mother cell. It helps in growth and repair of tissues in organisms.

Specific cells of reproductive organs or tissues in animals and plants divide to form gametes., which after fertilisation give rise to offspring.

They divide by a different process called MEIOSES.

Which involves two consecutive divisions. When a cell divides by meiosis it produces four new cells instead of just two .

The new cells only have half the number of chromosomes than that of the mother cells.

What strategy/structure prevents Na /Glucose symporters from laterally diffusing from the apical side to the lateral or basal sides of the cell?

a. Tight junctions form a ring of protein around the cell which connects to neighboring cells. This forms a physical barrier restricting lateral diffusion within the membrane.
b. The Na+/Glucose symporters are anchored to the apical side, where they are originally delivered through vesicular trafficking, through protein-protein interactions with the cytoskeleton.
c. Extracellular matrix proteins unique to the intestinal lumen side interact with extracellular side of the Na+/Glucose symporters.
d. None of these

Answers

Answer:

a. Tight junctions form a ring of protein around the cell which connects to neighboring cells. This forms a physical barrier restricting lateral diffusion within the membrane.

Explanation:

Epithelial cells in the small intestine act absorbing nutrients from the digestive tract. The cell membranes in these cells are divided into two domains: the apical domain specialized in nutrient absorption, and the basolateral domain, which transfers the absorbed nutrients to the blood vessels.

In order to maintain these functions differentiated, the mobility of proteins must be restricted to the pertinent domains. One of the mechanisms to achieve this is the formation of tight junctions between the adjacent cells of the epithelium. This acts as a barrier to the movement of lipids and membrane proteins. As a result, proteins can diffuse within their domains but can not cross from one domain to the other.

These tight junctions are formed by interactions between strands of transmembrane proteins, and generally, associate with adherent unions and desmosomes forming an union complex.

B. Determining salinity based on refraction of light
C. Determining salinity based on satellite observations
D. Determining salinity based on electrical conductivity of seawater using a CTD

Answers

Answer:

D

tell me if I am wrong please

Answer:

Refraction OF LIGHT

Explanation:

Salinity can be measured in various ways. Most oceanographers

measure salinity with an instrument called a CTD, named for the three

parameters it measures: conductivity, temperature, and density. To

determine salinity, probes on the CTD record electrical conductivity.

SOURCE OF ANSWER:

Desktop CTD instruments are also available, but when the

highest precision isn't necessary for lab settings, a much simpler tool

called a refractometer is used.

A refractometer measures salinity based on refraction. Refraction is the

bending of light that occurs within a water sample. Only a few drops of

water are placed under the light source of the handheld refractometer.

Consider the separate stages of an animal virus life cycle. Assemble a list of structures and processes that are unique to the virus and would make good drug targets for an antiviral agent. Explain your rationale for each choice.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to make an antiviral agent, we need to find good drug targets, that is, to find structures and processes that are only present in the virus, so there is no harm on human cells when this antiviral agent is being applied.

In the virion of a naked virus, only nucleic acid and  protein are present forming the nucleocapsid. The nucleic acid and proteins of the capsid, specially, are found only in the virus and therefore make good drug targets. For example, we can express antibodies to recognize the proteins of the capsid and guide the immune system to destroy them.

Although virus particles are  metabolically inert, one or more key enzymes are present  within the virion in some viruses, for example, the reverse transcriptase. This enzyme is only found in viruses and if we find a way to inhibit the activity of this reverse transcriptase, like for example finding a competitor substrate, the virus will not be able to synthesize the DNA needed for its replication.

Regarding processes in the virus life cycle, they all have similar steps: first the attachment of the viral particle onto the cell, then the penetration of the virus, then the synthesis of early and intermediate enzymes using the host cell machinery, and finally the assembly of these viral components and lysis of the host cell to release new viral particles.

The attachment of a virion to a host cell is a highly  specific process. Recognition proteins on the virus recognize  specific receptors on the host cell. Substances that compete with the virion for these specific receptors can be used. If there is no attachment, there is no infection.
