Percent error is calculated by the expression:

%error = |actual value - observed value| / actual value x 100

We calculate the error of the values as follows:

<span>a. 23.487 cm
% error = |</span><span>23.490  - 23.487| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.013%
</span><span>
b. 23.493 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.493| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.013%
<span>
c. 23.516 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.516| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.11%<span>

d. 23.501 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.501| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.05%<span>

e. 23.477 cm
</span>% error = |23.490  - 23.477| / 23.490 x 100 = 0.055%

Which of the following genes would not likely be encoded on a plasmid?
raketka [301]

Answer:

gene encoding enzymes for glycolysis.

Explanation:

Plasmid may be defined as an extra chromosomal circular DNA that replicate independently of the main chromosomal material. Plasmid are generally used for the manipulation of genes in molecular technologies.

Plasmid can encode gene for toxins, antibacterial resistance and for the unusual substrate degradation. The plasmid cannot code enzyme for glycolysis because these enzymes are already present in the host organisms. Glycolysis enzymes are independent on the plasmid regulation.

Thus, the correct answer is option (3).

In photosynthetic cells, synthesis of atp by the chemiosmotic mechanism occurs during _________.
NikAS [45]
In photosynthetic cells, synthesis of ATP by the chemi-osmotic mechanism occurs during photosynthesis and respiration. Plants can only achieve photosynthesis during the day and then respire during the night because photosynthesis requires the sun's energy to perform the necessary reaction to produce oxygen.
