Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Viruses are tinier than bacteria. In fact, the largest virus is smaller than the smallest bacterium. All viruses have is a protein coat and a core of genetic material, either RNA or DNA. Unlike bacteria, viruses can't survive without a host.

Which of the following statements is true?O Cold blooded animals have cold blood.
Cold-blooded animals change their body temperature to match the environment.
Mammals and birds are usually cold blooded.
All of the above.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Cold blooded animal did not have cold blood.

Cold blooded animals can’t change their body temperature to match the environment.

Mammals and birds are not cold blooded.

Final answer:

Endotherms, such as mammals and birds, are able to maintain a constant body temperature in the face of changing environmental conditions. In contrast, cold-blooded animals, or ectotherms, have a body temperature that matches their environment and varies with it.

Explanation:

An animal that maintains a constant body temperature in the face of environmental changes is called an endotherm. These animals are able to maintain a level of activity that an ectothermic animal cannot because they generate internal heat that keeps their cellular processes operating optimally even when the environment is cold.

Mammals and birds evolved endothermy, meaning they regulate their body temperature from the inside through metabolic or physical changes. This allows them to maintain a relatively stable body temperature regardless of the outside temperature.

Cold-blooded animals, also known as ectotherms, rely on external temperatures to set their body temperature. Their body temperature varies with the environment.

4. An increase in calcium concentration in the sarcoplasm will cause which of the following?A. displacement of troponin tropomyosin complex from the actin binding sites
B. muscle relaxation
C. rapid repolarization of the muscle membrane
D. breaking of the actin/myosin cross-bridges
E. activation of calcium pumps in the sarcoplasmic reticulum

Answers

Answer:

B. muscle relaxation

Explanation:

Sarcoplasmic reticulum store intracellular calcium in skeletal muscle cells.

The concentration of calcium helps in the contraction and relaxation of muscles. During depolarization, the calcium concentration increases that change conformation of troponin and tropomyosin and allows the actin to bind with myosin, resulting into relaxation of the muscle cell.

Hence, the correct option is "B. muscle relaxation".

14. Which of the following statements is/are correct? A. Most, if not all, members of Porifera are substrate feeders.
B. Members of Porifera lack endoderm and ectoderm
C. Sponges are a member of the phylum Cnidaria
D. Sponges do not reproduce by sexual reproduction and instead only reproduce asexually.
E. Given the following on the organism
I. An animal
II. Multicellular
III. Lacks tissues
IV. Lacks organs
V. Asymmetrical
This organism must be a member of the Phylum Porifera

Answers

Answer: Option E

Explanation:

Most of all poriferans/ sponges are suspension or filter feeders. Suspension feeders are organisms that each food materials which are suspended in their environment ie sea water, while filter feeders filter their food source from water by drawing water containing bacteria and organic matter in through their ostia(pores). Substrate feeders at organism that live in or on their food source.

Members of the poriferans do hava an ectoderm (epidermis) and an endoderm including a non-cellular late that is present in between the two layers.

No, they do not belong to the phylum cnidaria but porifera. Cnidarians including hydra, sex anemones, jellyfish etc and these have features that different from that of the sponges e.g the presence of nematocysts in cnidarians

Sponges can reproduce both sexually and asexually. Sexually by releasing larva fertilized in the sponge into water where they float around for some days and then proceed to adhere to a solid surface and begin their growth into adults. Asexually by budding

They are multicellular, lack tissues, are animals, lack organs and are asymmetrical. These are th distinguish features of poriferans

Answer: Option E.

Explanation:

Phylum porifera are group of organisms that live in aquatic habitats both marine and freshwater. They are diploblastic I.e they have two germ layers. They are assymetrical . They have round or vase-like or sac- like shape. They are multicellular and have bodies full of pores. They lack tissues and organs. Sponges are members of the phylum porifera.

List two chemicals that you think have low entropy and two that have high entropy. Explain the reason for your choices.

Answers

The Two substance that has low entropy are diamond and graphite while the other two chemical/substance that has high entropy are Noble gases(helium, neon, etc) and oxygen.

Generally, entropy measures the disorder or randomness in a system. High entropy implies randomness or high disorder while low entropy indicates orderliness.High entropy system, more energy is lost to the environment/surroundings.

Examples of chemicals or substances with high and low entropy are listed below

Low entropy

1.Diamond: This is a carbon crystalline substance. The makeup follows a well-structured pattern.  The particles are tightly packed thereby giving them a low entropy value. This means they are well ordered.

2.Graphite: This is another carbon substance but they have higher entropy than diamond but generally possess a low entropy.

High entropy

Generally, gaseous substances possess high entropy, and this includes

1. Nobles gases(helium, argon, Neon, etc); These gases when placed in a closed system they exhibit high entropy. They act disorderly. They move randomly and tend to occupy every space available in the system.

2. Oxygen gas: This is another gaseous substance that exhibits disorderliness when placed in a closed system.  

The arrangement of the particles and cohesive forces holding the individual particles of the substance together play a large role in determining its entropy.

Here are two examples:  

Low entropy: -A carbon crystal structure at a temperature near absolute zero,              

                      -A chunk of ice has low entropy

High entropy:- A box filled with two elements in their gaseous state, both of which are noble gases.

                       - Burning wood illustrates an increase in entropy  heated very          high temperature, with the gas "not very dense".

 The entropy of a chemical system depends on its energy and its multiplicity,  or how many different ways its atoms and molecules can be arranged. By adding new arrangements or energy, you increase entropy.  A diamond, for example, has low entropy because the crystal structure fixes its atoms in place. If you smash the diamond,  entropy increases because the original, single crystal becomes hundreds of tiny pieces that can be rearranged in many ways.

Burning wood illustrates an increase in entropy as The wood starts as a single, solid object.  Fire consumes the wood, releasing energy along with carbon dioxide and water vapor, and leaving a pile of ashes.  The atoms in the vapors and gases vibrate energetically, spreading out in an ever-expanding cloud.  Dissolving salt in water is another example of increasing entropy; the salt begins as fixed crystals,  and the water splits away the sodium and chlorine atoms in the salt into separate ions, moving freely with water molecules.  A chunk of ice has low entropy because its molecules are frozen in place.  Add heat energy and entropy increases. The ice turns to water, and its molecules agitate like popcorn in a popper.

Protists that ingest visible particles of food are called a. phototrophs
b. phagotrophs
c. osmotrophs
d. saprozoic feeders

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-B.

Explanation:

Protist is the group of the organism which is eukaryotes but nither considered true animals, fungi and plants.  

Their mode of nutrition is either osmotrophic or phagotrophic. The phagotrophic feeds on the macroparticles like organic particles by surrounding the particle and swallowing it through phagocytosis. The ingested particle gets digested inside the body pf the organism. The phagotrophic organisms are like amoeba and dinoflagellates.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

Using random sampling technique, select 3 grid segments for a sample taken from the plot above. List the 3 grid segments you selected. (1 point)

Answers

Answer:

I don't know exactly what you need but I give you an example so that you can create your samples through the Excel program, I hope it helps.

Just enter your sampling frame (the clients of which you have contact information) in the spreadsheet. Once you have a sampling frame (possible respondents) in Excel, you can easily select a random sample among them. For example, in your case that it is a work of biology and neceists three random samples here you can apply it with the following rules:

-Add a new column in the spreadsheet and name it "Random Number".

-In the first cell below your header row, type "= RAND ()".

-Press “Enter” and a random number will appear in the cell.

-Copy and paste the first cell in the other cells of the column.

-Once each row has a random number, organize the records from the "Random number" column.

-Then, select the first samples. In this way you will randomly choose from all samples.
