Your body cells use oxygen you breath to get energy from the foods you eat. The process is called "Cellular Respiration." This process or function consists of the cell using oxygen to break down sugars in the body. When the cell uses the oxygen to break down sugars, carbon-dioxide is produced and energy is released, thus producing the energy your body needs.


"Hemoglobin" is a protein with Red Blood cells (also referred to as RBC's) that are responsible for the transport of oxygen. The Cardiovascular System consists of the heart and vessels and may also be referred to as the vascular system or the circulatory system. The heart functions as a muscular pump that pushes blood through the vessels to all areas of the body and the vessels function to carry it back to the heart as well. Hence the name "circulatory."

Define groundwater, and list some anthropogenic (human) sources of groundwater pollution. Why do many scientists consider ground
joja [24]

Explanation:

Groundwater is the freshwater present below the earth's surface. It originates from the rain, ice, melting snow.

Some anthropogenic sources of groundwater pollution are

  • Aluminum.
  • Sulfur.
  • Arsenic.
  • Nitrates.
  • Fluoride.

Groundwater pollution has more problems than surface water pollution because groundwater is mostly hidden and it is very difficult to view, manage and monitor.

Groundwater holds its contamination and pollutants that cause pollution whereas surface water rinses their contamination and pollutants.

kati45 [8]
This is the DNA. I'm going to only use the upper strand to demonstrate what this strand would code for before and after a single bp deletion (so write it as mRNA). I will also write it how it's easier to see this which is to split them up into the 3 base codon system. Note that you don't need to know the amino acid code - you use a table to find these.

ORIGINAL (mRNA on top, Amino Acid (AA) on bottom:

5'-AGC GGG AUG AGC GCA UGU GGC GCA UAA CUG-3'
    SER  GLY  MET SER ALA  CYS GLY ALA  STOP LEU 

Note that the protein would stop being made at the stop codon and the LEU wouldn't matter at the end...

Now, I will remove one bp...(I bolded it up top). Rewrite the mRNA and find the corresponding AA...

NEW
5'-AGC GGG AUG GCG CAU GTG GCG CAU AAC UG-3'
   SER  GLY  MET  ALA  HIS   VAL  ALA   HIS  ASN .....

Completely different amino acid sequence after the methionine (MET). The stop codon is gone...the protein would continue being translated until it reaches another stop codon...so not what was supposed to be made!

A female rabbit of phenotype c’ is crossed to a male rabbit with c ch. The F1 is comprised of five rabbits with a c’ phenotype,
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Option E, c is recessive to both c’ and c ch

Explanation:

As it is given in the question that when phenotypically c female rabbits are crossed with father with phenotype cch , the offspring produced have only cch phenotype which means that allele cch is dominant over allele “c”

Now in the F1 cross, when a female rabbit of phenotype c’ is crossed with cch male rabbit, then also c’ is expressed over “c” allele.  

Hence, c is recessive to both c’ and cch allele

Scientists have identified two major branches of prokaryotic evolution. What was the basis for dividing prokaryotes into two dom
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Genetic evidence like difference in ribosomal sequence.

Explanation:

Earlier archaea were considered in bacteria because of their similar appearance with bacteria. Other than similar appearance they also show other similarities with bacteria like lack of nucleus and membrane-bound organelle, presence of single chromosome, mode of reproduction, etc.

Carl Woese was the scientist who discovered archaea and made a separate domain for archaea. After the sequencing archaeal genome, he found that the gene sequence like rRNA sequence of archaea is not similar to bacteria and eukarya. So by genetic evidence, he divided prokaryotes into two domain bacteria and archaea.
