________ is the proportion of dissolved salts to pure water.

Biology

Dafna11 [192]2 years ago
3 0
<span>The proportion of dissolved salts to pure water in the ocean is known as salinity. This is commonly measured in parts per thousand. For example, if the salinity of an ocean is 35 parts per thousand, or ppt, this means that in every kilogram, or 1000 grams, of ocean water, there are 35 grams of salt present. The higher the quantity of parts per thousand, the saltier the water, which also means the higher the salinity.</span>

Which of the following correctly lists the levels of compaction in eukaryotes from naked DNA to the most compact?
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The level of compaction in Eukaryotes from naked DNA to the most compact is:

d. nucleosome, solenoid, looped chromatin (300-nm fiber), metaphase chromosome

Explanation:

As we know that the

  • Diameter of  DNA is 2 nm.
  • Diameter of nucleosome is 11 nm.
  • Diameter of solenoid is 30 nm.
  • Diameter of looped chromation is 300 nm
  • Diameter of meta-phase chromosome is 1400 nm

All of these facts depict that the the least compact is DNA and most compact is meta-phase chromosome.

Rattlesnake venom contains a collection of different enzymes, from phospholipases (which hydrolyze phospholipids into fatty acid
zhenek [66]

Answer:

Lipid bilayer

Explanation:

Red blood cell is surrounded by a cell membrane that separates its interior from the surrounding medium. The cell membrane is a lipid bilayer and consists of two layers of phospholipids. The polar heads of phospholipids make the surfaces of the cell membrane while their nonpolar tails are buried in its core.

The snake venom has phospholipase enzymes that digest the phospholipids into fatty acids. Digestion of phospholipids of the lipid bilayer of red blood cells would cause leakage of their content into the surroundings and loss of integrity of cells.

What is the relationship between biodiversity and number of populations?
noname [10]
Biodiversity increases as the number of populations grow, because a greater population generally means a more diverse one.

However, this is not always true, so I'm not sure what answer they're looking for.

A particular ant species has four pairs of chromosomes. Identify the genetic possibilities from independent assortment of a game
pantera1 [17]
In this question, the ant has 4 pairs of chromosomes. Each pair of chromosomes will be separated in a gamete, resulting 4 unpaired chromosomes. That is why gamete is called haploid or n.
That means only 1 of the 2 chromosomes that will be carried into a gamete, assuming the gene heterozygote then there would be 2 possibilities. Since each chromosome pairs can produce 2 possibilities for each male or female, their interaction will result as (2x2) 4 possibilities.
Then for 4 chromosomes would be 4^4 possibilities= 256 possibilities of offspring
