Determine the new concentration, in mg/mL, of the starch solution you diluted in the Erlenmeyer flask. Recall from the Procedure

s that there are 20 mg/mL of starch in the 2% solution. Use that to determine the milligrams of starch in the diluted starch solution. Then, divide the milligrams of starch by the total volume of the solution, which includes the water plus the starch solution. Record your results for use in future questions.
a. 2 mg/mL
b. 0.05 mg/mL
c. 0.2 mg/mL
d. 10 mg/mL

Answer:

0.05 mg/mL  ( B )

Explanation:

Given data:

20 mg/ml starch

2% solution = 2g of solute is in 100g of solvent

<u>Determine the new concentration in mg/ml </u>

Dilution equation = C1V1 = C2V2

new concentration ; applying the dilution factor

dilution factor = 1 : 400 ; ( 2 /400 )g = 0.005 g of solute is present in every  100 mL

∴ new concentration = 0.00005 g / 1 mL * ( 1000 mg / 1g ) = 0.05 mg/mL

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Radiation leads to mutations that causes genetic drift and decrease fitness.

Explanation:

Radiation is responsible for changing or altering the DNA sequence within a cell.

Radiation either causes mutation or it leads to cell death.

Most of the ionizing radiation causes mutation within the  deep inside of our cells which eventually leads genetic drift which means change in the frequency of the allele in a population over time.

Beneficial mutation confer advantage to the organism. But in this case, the mutation is not beneficial and decreases the fitness of the rodent organisms.

What would be the consequence to an organism if they are missing the following DNA repair mechanisms:
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

a. DNA polymerase proofreading:   consequence of its absence is the DNA mutation

b.  Mismatch repair enzymes : consequence of its absence impedes homologous recombination resulting in the final mutation

c. Nucleotide excision repair enzymes : the absence of nucleotide cleavage repair enzymes would impede the functioning of damaged DNA repair mechanisms

Explanation:

a. DNA polymerases are the enzymes that form the DNA in cells. During DNA replication (copying), most DNA polymerases can "check their work" with each base they add. This process is called review. If the polymerase detects that you have added a wrong nucleotide (incorrectly paired), remove it and replace it immediately, before continuing with DNA synthesis

b. In homologous recombination, the information from the homologous chromosome that matches that of the damaged one (or from a sister chromatid if the DNA has been copied) is used to repair the fragmentation. In this process the two homologous chromosomes are approached and the undamaged region of the homologue or the chromatide is used as a template to replace the damaged region of the broken chromosome. Homologous recombination is "cleaner" than the union of non-homologous ends and does not usually cause 11 mutations

c. Excision repair: damage to one or a few DNA bases is usually fixed by removing (excising) and replacing the damaged region. In repair by base cleavage, only the damaged base is removed. In nucleotide excision repair, as in the mating repair we saw earlier, a nucleotide section is removed
