Students graphed the growth rate over several weeks of two plants in their classroom. The equations of both plants are given whe

re x represents the time in weeks and y represents the heights of the plants in inches.
Plant A: y = 1.8x + 3.1
Plant B: y = 2.3x + 1.9
Approximately how many weeks will it take for both plants to reach the same height? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
1.9 weeks
2.4 weeks
3.1 weeks
7.4 weeks

The answer is <span>2.4 weeks
</span>
<span>x - the time in weeks
y - the heights of the plants in inches

</span><span>When both plants to reach the same height, then yA = yB
</span><span>y = 1.8x + 3.1
</span><span>y = 2.3x + 1.9

</span>2.3x + 1.9 = 1.8x + 3.1
2.3x - 1.8x = 3.1 - 1.9
0.5x = 1.2
x = 1.2 : 0.5
x = 2.4

Which of the following characteristics, structures, or processes is common to both bacteria and viruses? A. Metabolism B. Riboso
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

C. Genetic material composed of nucleic acid

Explanation:

The information needed by every organism to perform life functions like reproduction, growth etc are held in the genetic material that the organism carries in its genome. Every genetic material of organisms is composed of nucleic acids, which are only two in nature i.e. Ribonucleic acid (RNA) and Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). This is a common feature of all organisms including bacteria and viruses that they contain genetic material which must be in form of a nucleic acid.

The viruses do not undergo a cell division, neither do they contain protein synthesis structures called Ribosomes because they do not have the ability to reproduce or perform any living process outside a living host cell. This means that they strictly depend on another organism's transcriptional, translational, replicational ability to survive.

A mutation in a gene in the fruit fly Drosophila was found to affect eye color. The protein affected was found to be completely
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

The correct option is D. A reasonable explanation for the change in levels of protein is that the mutation occurs in the promoter of the gene, within several hundred base pairs of the start of transcription.

Explanation:

In genetics, a promoter can be described as a region where the RNA polymerase binds initially and starts transcription. The promoter is usually present near to the gene that has to be transcribed. The rate of transcription is controlled by the promoter region too. Hence, the correct option is D. The promoter region for the eye colour was changed due to mutation.

Other options are false because a change in a codon or base pair would have changed proteins being formed and would not have slowed the process.

What is th advantage of this type of reproduction in paramecium?
eduard
The advantage of asexual reproduction (binary fission) in paramecium is a large number of offspring that are reproduced very fast. Large number colonies which are formed that way may survive and compete with other organisms. Another advantage is that this type of reproduction doesn’t acquire energy for finding a mate.  
<span>The advantage of sexual reproduction is that offspring reproduced sexually are different (asexually have genetically identical offspring).</span>
