Answer:

When the body has excess water, thirst is suppressed. An interaction between the pituitary gland and the kidneys provides another mechanism. When the body is low in water, the pituitary gland secretes vasopressin (also called antidiuretic hormone) into the bloodstream.

Transposons need to __________________ in order to limit their negative impact on the genome of the host cell. A. control their
nalin [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is B

Explanation:

Transposons need to regulate their copy number to avoid errors with chromosomal pairing during meiosis and mitosis such as unequal crossover.

A typical example of this error is called the Alu Sequence or Elements. Alu elements contain more than one million copies found everywhere in the genome of human beings.

Many inherited human diseases such as cancer are related to Alu insertions.

Cheers!

8_murik_8 [283]
You would need two plants at the least, one that you kept out side of sunlight and one in sunlight. I don't know how you would figure out how much Carbon Dioxide is used but the plant in the sunlight i believe would be the control. <span />

A volcanic eruption on the coast of Japan in 1850 deposits a layer of ash on top of a layer of red clay, and the ash is covered
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

The series of events mentioned in this description are as follows -  

a) In 1850, ash layer deposits over the layer of red clay  

b) In 1902, layer of silt from tsunami covers the ash

Now pot is found in between ash and red clay layer  

While coin is found in between ash and silt.  

Thus, it is clear that pot was first buried between the ash and red clay layer. While coin was buried in 1902 above the ash layer but beneath the silt layer.  

Hence, option B is correct

Which of Mendel's laws or principles states that gametes carry one allele for each trait?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

hope it helped

Explanation:

Each unit of inheritance can have alternate states (alleles) that segregate at meiosis, with each gamete receiving only one allele (the principle of segregation, Mendel's first law); different alleles assort independently in the gametes (the principle of independent assortment, Mendel's second law).

Proteins play key roles in olfaction. One kind of protein, called ___________, attaches itself to hydrophobic odorant molecules
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs); Olfactory receptors (ORs)".

Explanation:

Odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) are low-molecular soluble molecules that are secreted in high amounts in the nasal mucus layer. The precise biological activity of OBPs remains unclear, however, its solubility and ability to attach to hydrophobic odorant molecules suggest that they acts as carriers. A second class of proteins called olfactory receptors (ORs), act at the genetic level by initiating transduction once odorant molecules attach to them. ORs are coded by the largest family of genes, which include more than 100 genes and pseudogenes that represent around 3% of the genome.
