Researchers propose a model to explain variation in phytoplankton cell sizes in a marine environment. They base their model on t

he idea that smaller cells absorb nutrients more efficiently. The researchers predict that the mean diameter of phytoplankton cells will change by 50 micrometers for every 5-kilometer increase in distance from the shore because of a gradual decrease in nutrient availability. To test their model, the researchers determine that the phytoplankton cells found closest to shore have a mean diameter of 900 micrometers. Based on the model, what will be the mean diameter of the phytoplankton cells that are found 25 kilometers from shore?

What cellular process(es) is/are responsible for the increase in protein content associated with the gap phases of the cell cycl
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Protein/enzyme synthesis

Explanation:

<em>The process of synthesis of protein in the cell is mainly responsible for the increase in the protein content of the cell.</em>

<em>The process which is also known as the translation process of gene expression takes place at the G1 and G2 phases of the interphase of the cell cycle.</em>

During protein synthesis, mRNA synthesized in the nucleus are transported to the cytoplasm and the genetic codes on the mRNA are translated into their respective amino acids linked together by polypeptide bonds. The protein are then folded in specific ways for specific enzymes.

What combinations of alleles could result from a crossover between BD and bd chromosomes?
AysviL [449]

Answer:

Bb, Db , Bd and Dd

Explanation:

When a cross between two parents (having certain trait) is carried out , they share their alleles with each other to produce offspring with new traits. These offspring have gentically different allele combination as compared to their parents. A  genetic cross can be represented by a punnet square (as given below)

The cross between two parents with genotype "BD" and "bd" will result into the following offspring -

B D

b Bb Db

d Bd Dd

A gardener is concerned that her greenhouse is getting too hot from too much light, and seeks to shade her plants with colored t
valkas [14]
<span>In getting her plants to grow, the gardener should use the color blue for her colored translucent sheets. The reason for this is because it will be absorbed by the plants, causing them to get the light absorption that they so desperately need. Other colors, such as green, are absorbed into plants (as can be observed by their green colors), and thus they do not absorb the light through this color.</span>
