Based on the internal and external solute concentrations, do you think the paramecium will swell up or shrink in this solution? Explain your reasoning.
Answer:
Depending on the external and internal solute concentrations, the paramecium will either, shrink, remain the same size or swell.
If the external solute concentration is less than internal solute concentration, the paramecium will swell.
If the external solute concentration is equal to the internal solute concentration, the paramecium will remain the same in size.
If the external solute concentration is greater than the internal solute concentration, the paramecium will shrink.
Note: The concentrations of the external and internal environments were not given.
Explanation:
When two compartments containing solutions are separated by a semipermeable membrane, by means of osmosis, water can move in or out of a compartment depending on the concentration of solutes in either compartments.
In a cell such as a paramecium, the cell membrane serves as a semipermeable membrane.
If the concentration of solutes in both the internal and external environment are the same, there is no net movement of water molecules, and the solutions are said to be isotonic.
If the concentration of solutes in the external environment is greater than the internal environment, water molecules moves out from the internal to external environment, and the paramecium shrinks in size.
If the concentration of solutes in the external environment is less than the internal environment, water molecules moves from the external into the internal environment, and the paramecium swells up in size.
You are inserting your gene of interest into the Lac Z gene in a plasmid also containing a tetracycline resistant gene. You plate your transformed bacteria on media containing tetracyline and X-gal (the LacZ substrate that can form a blue dye). What results would indicate a clone with recombinant plasmids?
Answer:
A white colony in tetracyline plates
Explanation:
Beta-galactosidase (also known as beta-gal or β-gal), will not be produced if a gene was cloned into the Lac Z gene. It is because β-galactosidase is produced by the activation of the lacZ gene, and thereby β-gal can not be produced in the absence of this lac operon. In consequence, X-gal will not be hydrolyzed by the β-gal enzyme in a reaction that releases a blue pigment, and thus the colony will be white. In gene cloning, X-gal enables to determine whether a cell is expressing a functional β-gal enzyme, which is known as the "blue/white screening method".

why do autotrophs have to go through BOTH processes?
Answer:Plants are autotrophs, which means they produce their own food. They use the process of photosynthesis to transform water, sunlight, and carbon dioxide into oxygen, and simple sugars that the plant uses as fuel. These primary producers form the base of an ecosystem and fuel the next trophic levels.

What is a difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes cells
Answer:
The main difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells is defined by the presence of true nucleus and most organelles in the eukaryotic cell, which do not possess prokaryotes.
Explanation:
Cells are the simplest expression of living beings —the structural and functional unit— and are classified, according to their complexity, into prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
Prokaryotic cells are simple cells that lack a nucleus -so their genetic material is dispersed in the cytoplasm- and most of the organelles. This cell type is unable to become a specialized cell or to group together to form tissues, so it is only found in single-cell organisms, such as bacteria.
On the other hand, eukaryotic cells have a true nucleus —where DNA is found— all organelles, can differentiate and group together to form tissues. This latter property makes them suitable for forming multicellular organisms.
A sedimentary rock containing a fern fossil was found. What does this tell about the area at the time the rock was formed
the area was hot
the area was covered by an ocean
the area was cold
the area was on land
Answer:
D) The area was on land.
Explanation:
We can tell that this is the answer because of the process of elimination.
- It is not A or C, because there is not enough information given to us to determine whether the area was hot or cold.
- It is not B, because ferns do not grow in the ocean. (Unless it a specific type of water fern that have not heard about... but this is highly unlikely, so don't worry.)
- This leaves us with: D) The area was on land. This is the correct answer because ferns do grow on land, and a sedimetary rock containing a fern fossil is much more likely to be found on land than on the ocean floor.

What is one way that calcitonin and parathyroid hormone maintain homeostasis?
A. Calcitonin stimulates the kidneys to excrete calcium when calcium levels are too high, while parathyroid hormone stimulates the kidneys to absorb calcium when calcium levels are too low.
B. Calcitonin stimulates the bones to excrete calcium when calcium levels are too high, while parathyroid hormone stimulates the bones to absorb calcium when calcium levels are too low.
C. Calcitonin stimulates the kidneys to absorb calcium when calcium levels are too low, while parathyroid hormone stimulates the kidneys to excrete calcium when calcium levels are too high.
D. Calcitonin stimulates the bones to absorb calcium when calcium levels are too low, while parathyroid hormone stimulates the bones to excrete calcium when calcium levels are too high.
Answer:
The way calcitonin and parathyroid hormone maintain homeostasis in the body is calcitonin stimulates the kidneys to excrete calcium when calcium levels are too high, while parathyroid hormone stimulates the kidneys to absorb calcium when calcium levels are too low (option A).
Explanation:
Calcitonin and parathyroid hormone have a role in maintaining the balance of calcium and phosphorus concentrations, but their effects are opposite.
The reduction of calcium levels promoted by calcitonin is based on:
Inhibition of intestinal absorption of calcium and bone resorption or decalcification. Increases the excretion of Calcium by the kidneys.On the other hand, parathyroid hormone increases calcium levels by performing the opposite effect of calcitonin:
It stimulates intestinal absorption and bone resorption. It increases renal calcium reabsorption.Both mechanisms contribute to maintain the levels of calcium, when it is high or low in the organism, collaborating with the maintenance of the homeostasis.
The other options are not acceptable because they do not describe the correct function of calcitonin and parathyroid hormone.

Answer:
Given the sequence of DNA bases sequence:
DNA TAC GAG TTG CCG TAT ATT GCG CTC GAC TGCTranscription into mRNA and translation would be:
mRNA AUG CUC AAC GGC AUA UAACGC GAG CUG ACG Amino acids Met (Start)-Leu-Asn-Gly-Ile-Stop-Arg-Glu-Leu-ThrExplanation:
Genetic information is found in DNA, and this information depends on a sequence of bases —adenine, thymine, cytosine and guanine— in the DNA molecule.
Transcription consists of creating a strand of mRNA, from the sequence of bases in a DNA strand, which it assumes:
The sequence of RNA is complementary to the DNA sequence that forms it, following the complementarity of bases. In RNA there is no base thymine, which is replaced by uracil.The sequence of mRNA is organized into triplets or codons, each of which encodes for the synthesis of an amino acid (translation), indicating both the start of a polypeptide chain and the stop of protein synthesis. Knowing this information, it can be stated that, following a sequence of DNA bases, the resulting transcription and translation would be:
DNA TAC GAG TTG CCG TAT ATT GCG CTC GAC TGC Transcription AUG CUC AAC GGC AUA UAACGC GAG CUG ACG Translation Met (Start)-Leu-Asn-Gly-Ile-Stop-Arg-Glu-Leu-ThrResulting amino acids and indications in protein synthesis Methionine (inicio), Leucine, Asparagine, Glycine, Isoleucine —Stop— Arginine, Glutamine, Leucine and Tyrosine.

Invasive species can undermine an ecosystem's natural resources and put human usage of those resources in danger.
What are natural resources ?Natural resources are things that come from the Earth and are used to sustain life and satisfy human needs. A natural resource is any natural substance that people use.
Aquaculture species can be released intentionally or accidentally, as well as through aquarium specimens or bait, oceangoing ships' ballast water, aquarium specimens, and other methods.
So, Invasive species can undermine an ecosystem's natural resources and put human usage of those resources in danger.
Invasive species have the ability to wipe out native species, reduce biodiversity, compete with native species for scarce resources, and disrupt habitat.

Define the word ubiquitous and provide examples showing why this is an appropriate term to use while describing microbes
Answer:
They are found everywhere on the planet. Microbes are the most abundant organisms found in every region and environment on Earth.
Explanation:
Ubiquitous means present or found everywhere. Microbes, are the most abundant organisms on Earth, also called microorganisms. There are several types of microbes, usually classed as protists, protozoa, algae, bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
As integral parts of our ecosystems, they are essential in their roles as producers, consumers, and decomposers and are capable of inhabiting a wide range of climates and niches- from the hottest volcanoes, icy tundras to the deepest regions of the ocean. Microbes are also essential to macro-organisms; in humans, they aid in the digestion of food and maintain gut health. Additionally, microbes can be used in the production of food, medicine, fuel, and other biotechnological applications.
