In a laboratory experiment, C. elegans and B. thuringiensis were cultured individually (control) or together (experimental) for

150 days. Under optimal conditions, the generation time of C. elegans is approximately 3.5 days and the generation time of B. thuringiensis is approximately 25 minutes. At the end of the experiment, the change in virulence of B. thuringiensis and the change in resistance of C. elegans to BT toxin were determined. (a) Calculate the maximum number of generations that is possible in individual cultures of C. elegans AND the maximum number of generations that is possible in individual cultures of B. thuringiensis in 150 days.

Answer:

Explanation:

If the investigator wishes to watch the movement of C. Elegans (a roundworm), then he should be using compound microscopes. These microscopes are light illuminates and image that can be perceived is a two dimensional. Using this would allow you to magnify to a certain level so you can view individual cells and even cells that are living and moving. Typically compound microscopes can magnify up to 1000 times magnification. It has two convex lenses which has short focal lengths to allow a much higher level of magnification as compared to a simple microscope. These lenses are called the ocular lens and the objective lens.

USPshnik [31]
Question is as interesting as the animal jackalope.

We ASSUME that incomplete dominance of the number of horns gives rise to 0,1 or 2 horns, where hh=>0, Hh=>1 ("blend" of 0 and 2), and HH=>2 horns.

So if HH crosses with hh, the genotype of the offspring will be Hh, i.e. phenotype Hh=> 1 horn

Cattle egrets hitch a ride on domestic cows and eat insects that are stirred up by their activity. What term describes this rela
Serhud [2]

Ans.

Biological  interactions include different types of interactions between organisms that reside together in a community.

Cattle egrets show interaction with domestic cows and feed on the insects present in them. The cattle egrets get food from the cows, while there is no benefit or harm to the cows. This type of biological relationship is known as commensalism, in which one organism, out of interacting organisms, get benefit, while other organism neither harmed or benefit.  

Thus, the term that describes this relationship is 'commensalism.'

Dana is intending to breastfeed her baby after he is born. she has read that human breast milk differs significantly from cow's
ycow [4]
The hormones send signal to the mammary glands in the body for it to start to produce milk to feed the baby. However there are times humans rely on to cow's milk. There are differences though between the two.Human milk has more whey protein compared to the cow yet they has less casein which is another type of protein compared to cow's milk. For carbohydrates, human milk is higher than the cow's milk. For the fatty acid, the cow's milk contains more unsaturated fat.

Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Crossing over and random distribution of chromosome will lead to random assortment of new combinations of alleles on the same chromosome.

Explanation:

Crossing can be defined as the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes.

Variation can occur when the sister chromatids have mixture of alleles ( paternal).

This leads to genetic diversity.

This genetic variation is the bedrock and foundation of evolution. This bring about differences in different organisms and when organism differs genetically, they will have different level of adaptability and survival instincts. The eventual result of this is survival of the fittest.
